  • Having a “Board of Directors” is how we do it.

    Lol! You don’t even have an anarchist society yet, and you already want to hand fancy-sounding titles out?

    Care for a suggestion?

    The concept of a leader is an intentionally vague and next-to-meaningless idea in our hierarchical society - despite the fact that people lead and follow in our societies all the damn time.

    Perhaps it behoves anarchists to actually go back to the drawing board on this one and actually redefine what it means to be both a “leader” and a “follower”?





  • The exact same factors apply.

    Industries is built on top of other industries - for instance, producing monoclonal antibodies without someone supplying you with polyethylene glycol (which already requires a sophisticated production process and supply chain of it’s own) is going to be difficult.

    It’s the relationship between the actors inside and inbetween these industries that should be the focus of anarchists - not their complexity.



  • What you’re essentially asking is, “how will industry work in an anarchist society?”

    It’s a very, very wide question, methinks - and a lot of the answer is going to depend on what it is you actually define as an anarchist society.

    If you were to ask me how aspirin will be made in an anarchist society, the answer is simple - the same way we make aspirin now. But if you were to ask me how the raw materials needed for aspirin manufacture will be sourced in an anarchist society… well, now things start getting more interesting.

    Aspirin is easy - thermo-nuclear weapons is difficult.
