How to answer the question: ‘if you don’t like this system, what do you want to replace it with?’ – aka a review of The Democracy Project by David Graeber
“I agree with David Graeber that for this breaking-free to be successful, it has to be done without violence, and we also agree that ideally, it would be done in a way that ended with people being able to more-or-less govern themselves. OK, let’s say it (Graber does) – anarchism of some flavour. Where Graeber (and several other people I know) and I might part company is that I’d be happy (or happier at least) just to have non-corporate decision-makers (leaders if you like – anathema to anarchists), maybe as an intermediate step to complete self-governance.”
