Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology – Works in Theory
Podcast Works in Theory is for anyone interested in utopian social theory but who don’t want to read. The hosts read works in political and social theory and do our best to explain them in simple terms through casual conversation.
Engaging with Fragments of an Anarchist Anthropology, the episode discusses what is anarchism, how is anarchism different from other schools of radical sociological enquiry like Marxism, What does a revolution consist of? Can imagination be a political principle in itself, and why is anthropology the best and worst discipline of social theory to develop anarchist thought. It not only discusses what DG has to answer, but also pushes us to ask better questions.
