[lbo-talk] Anarchism in The Weekly Standard

[ken hanly]

 You are right. There is not much similarity with Owen either. One similarity is that they are trying within the space they are occupying to set up new social relations that embody their ideals . Propaganda of the deed. The Utopian socialists also tried to set up alternative societies in sync with their ideals. But OWS is not following any blueprints for an ideal socialist society.

Cheers, ken

Anarchism never had a fascination with Utopian socialist schemes.

> The article was a good read and there do seem to be family resemblances between utopian socialism and some in the OWS groups. However the part about Fourier is rather ridiculous. There is none of the detailed blueprints for future society associated with what is happening as far as I can glean from a long distance away!
