The Fourth Annual North American Anarchist Studies Network Conference LIVE from New Orleans; a yearly anti-authoritarian, anti-capitalist symposium! For more info, visit naasn12.org.
What Are We For?
The (NAASN) is intended
- to serve as a means of mutual support for North American anarchists engaged in intellectual work, both theoretical and empirical;
- to facilitate and promote anarchist studies by bringing together students, academics, independent scholars, and activists from across the United States, Canada, and Mexico; and
- to provide a space for critical dialogue and reflection on anarchism.
What Is Anarchist Studies?
We understand “anarchist studies” as research, scholarship, education, and theorization that is a.) about anarchism (e.g., studies of the past, present, and possible futures of anarchist thought and practice), and/or b.) informed by anarchism (developing distinctly anarchist scholarly practices, methods of study, epistemologies, ways of knowing).
What Is Anarchism?
We understand anarchism, in general terms, as the practice of equality and freedom in every sphere of life — life conceived and lived without domination in any form; we understand this practice to belong not only to a better future but to the here and now, where we strive to prefigure our ends in the means we choose to reach them. As such, anarchism is a distinct tradition with a specific history, rooted in the aspirations and experiences of a particular working-class movement; at the same time, it is a set of principles and possibilities that are the property of no one movement, no one thinker, and no one place or time. The many ways in which these principles have been interpreted and these possibilities realized may serve us as a continuing source of inspiration; articulating the unity within this plurality, lending it greater coherence, may be part of our continuing task.
