Collectivist anarchism

In this passage, Henry David Thoreau expresses his transcendentalist ideas by describing the beauty and perfection of nature and creating parallels to the human body and mind. In describing the physical changes in the environment that occur when winter eases into spring, Thoreau provides the analogy of a “waking man” to describe the pond cracking. He further goes on to question the sensitivity of the pond – and in directly questioning the sensitivity of man. Overall, this passage is…

Two authors, one born in 1812, the other in 1876. Two books, one a reflection of life in nature, the other, the tales of animal decivilization. Even though the two book topics carry strong, distinct differences, they both carry strong beliefs about the laws of nature. Henry Thoreau, the author of Walden, describes a two year stay in nature and how he developed different views on life and nature. Jack London, the author of Call of the Wild, wrote a story about how an animal goes from being a…

discovers that ego is not a bad thing and becomes an egoist. By the end of the book Prometheus uses his own self interests to drive himself, putting his own motives above those of his “brother’s” motives which is a primary focus in The Soul of the Collectivist. Anthem primarily features collectivism versus individualism. Ayn Rand believes that individualism is the more important of the two traits as is shown in most of Ayn Rand’s novels.…

All these uses of repetition are very important because they either make the sentence have multiple meanings, or serve as a clue that this is important based on how many times it’s repeated and helps us understand his ideas. For example, the word “we” is constantly repeated until he discovers “I.” And to prove this, the whole book is wrapped around 2 ideas- individualism and egoism. Equality transformed from a confused kid into a man who has strong morals and ideas. While I may not agree with…

Dilip Chitre creates a stark impression of the isolation of old age in his poem ‘Father Returning Home’ by showing his fathers’ estrangement from society and his own family. Chitre conveys this isolation by using literary devices such as similes and repetition, and addressing themes such as modernity vs tradition. The poem begins when a father is waiting outside for a train which will take him home. We know this as it says ‘My father travels on the late evening train’. Already by labelling the…

Dr. Steve Maraboli once said, "Let today be the day you finally release yourself from the imprisonment of past grudges and anger. Simplify your life. Let go of the poisonous past and live the abundantly beautiful present... today". Dr. Maraboli’s views are similar to those of Thoreau, as he claims that leading a simplistic life will free one from the chains holding them back. In Henry David Thoreau’s “Where I Lived and What I Lived for”, Thoreau believes society creates the chains holding down…

The name of my group’s country is Marmicnicno, it simply represents the names of each of the founding members. While establishing the background of our country we decided that we wanted our citizens to have political, economic, and religious freedoms, but we also wanted to take a risk on a government system that is not commonly used. At the conclusion of that, our government of choice was an anarchist. While anarchy is typically defined as lack of government, Marmicnicno still has a system of…

the real alternative to create a better world. It was after 1840, when Pierre-Joseph Proudhon used the term to describe his political ideology that the term gained legitimacy (Ward 2004, p 1). Despite being one of the oldest political ideologies, anarchism has failed to gain sustained appeal among the masses. As the idea of overthrowing the state or a stateless state is largely seen as unrealistic. Anarchist ideas have never been at the base of national…

anarchists and collectivist anarchists have more in common with one another than they have with neoliberalism. Discuss. Anarchist ideology is defined by the central belief that political authority in all its forms, and especially in the form of the state, is both evil and unnecessary because order and social harmony can arise naturally and spontaneously, and do not have to be imposed ‘from above’ through government (Heywood, A. 2007 p 175). During the nineteenth century, anarchism was a…

idea. Why well on the end of his rhetoric’s regarding classes of society the ended – up of comparing Russia on its past from fiefdom to Communism nothing changes but everyone became a collectivist citizen which we know that is against the principle of “Dasein” since the Being become one and uniformed in a collectivist society, this we know whisk us from being true to our individual being which we need to be processed in our internal…
