0/5 ( ratings)

E. Armand is a largely forgotten thinker of the early 20th century libertarianism and anarchism, who wrote and lived outside of political and social conventions. He developed what an "anti-authoritarian philosophy": starting with the inviolable dignity of the individual and extending to a social philosophy of reciprocity and mutuality. He was a powerful hedonist thinker, for whom sensual pleasure was no less important in individual development than any other form of happiness.He opposed both communism and capitalism, and instead promoted the right to ownership of a means of production and free exchange by individuals, associated or in isolation.This volume includes over 30 texts by E. Armand, which have been gathered from his books, pamphlets, and newspapers. Most of these are in their first English translations, organized by subject, with a functional hyperlinked table of "My Atheism""The Christians and the Anarchists""Have Faith in Yourself"On Anarchist "Our Ideological Rule of Conduct""My Point of View on Individualist Anarchism""A Little Individualist Anarchist Handbook""The Anarchist Envisioned as a Rebel""The Human Problem and the Libertarian Solution"On "Variations on Pleasure""On Sexual Liberty""Voluntary Procreation from the Individualist Point of View""The Wave of Modesty""To Feel Alive""Is That What You Call 'Living'?""Life as Experience""To Enjoy Physically""On Life and the Enjoyment of Living""On Vices, Stimulants, Etc."On Economic "A Problematic Sketch of an 'Anarchist Society'""Value and the Consequences of Its Abolition""The Workers, the Unions, and the Anarchists""Reciprocity""Non-authoritarian Insurance"Miscellaneous "An Open Letter to Victor Serge""The Manifesto of the 'Rallied'""The Bluff of Criminology""The 'Occupation' of Schoolteacher""On Suffering""I Don’t Believe in Success""Your Dignity""Max His Life and His Work"
