RE: Anarchism is Deeply, Intimately Personal
Very good post. I think that a lot of young anarchist confuse anarchism with anarchy, the second term being used to describe a state of chaos where the law of the jungle is the only law.
My personal opinion is that both come from the original Greek root words, "an" and "archos." "An" means without, and "archos: refers to rulers. So just "without rulers." Therefore, in my mind, any bit of baggage that gets added to the definition along the way is merely connotation.
But I can see why you might see personal differences between the two. In either case, thank you for posting on my wall and following my posts.
