Communism and Anarchism
Professor Kozlowski continues testing the limits of algorithmic censorship with a discussion of Communism and Anarchism. No references to the Cookbook here, but we are going to look deeply at some widely varied ideas underlying Anarchist thought, and their justifications for fighting against the state, as well as the underpinning ideas of many 20th century activist movements (which we will discuss in the next lecture).
Today's readings are:
Lenin's What is to be Done? and The State and Revolution
Kropotkin's "Law and Authority"
Tolstoy's The Kingdom of God is Within You
Goldman's "Anarchism"
Additional Readings include:
Thoreau, "On Civil Disobedience"
Mills, The Sociological Imagination
Foucault, Discipline and Punish
Orwell, Homage to Catalonia
Hemingway, For Whom the Bell Tolls
Hemingway, To Have and Have Not
Huxley, Island
Sholokhov, And Quiet Flows the Don
LeGuin, The Dispossessed
And, of course, the preeminent masterpiece of video games about politics: Disco Elysium
