iRad I.2 in Print, iRad I.1 Online

The second issue (Winter 2013) of The Industrial Radical goes to the printer today, featuring articles by B-psycho, Kevin Carson, Gary Chartier, William Gillis, Anthony Gregory, Thomas L. Knapp, Anna Morgenstern, Darian Worden, and your humble correspondent, on topics ranging from police brutality, gun control, immigration policy, and left-libertarianism to Hugo Chávez’s mixed legacy, Noam Chomsky’s inconsistencies, Rand Paul’s anti-drone filibuster, the intersection between anarcho-syndicalism and agorism, and of course Star Wars.

The Industrial Radical I.2 (Winter 2013)

With each new issue published, we post the immediately preceding issue online. Hence a free pdf file of our first issue (Autumn 2012) is now available here.

Note: we’ve had only one General Fund donation in the past three years, which is why our publishing schedule has been a bit sluggish. Most of our non-subscription donations go to C4SS, which is great – please do support C4SS – but the Molinari Institute side of the Molinari/C4SS amalgam has been running on fumes a bit. Give to the General Fund, or the terrorists win!


North By Left

Today and tomorrow I’m attending the Auburn Philosophy Department’s 5th annual conference, this one on “Theoretical Agency: Issues at the Intersections of Freedom and Belief”; schedule here.

After that I’m off to Hanover College, Indiana, at the invitation of John Ahrens, to give two talks, one on Milton Friedman’s critique of corporate social responsibility (for my general take whereon, see here), and one on free-market radical leftism (scroll to the bottom of the poster for what some may consider a tincture of irony).

Updated info (including location) for the Molinari Society panel tomorrow:

Emma Goldman and Voltairine de Cleyre

Eastern APA, Marriott Marquis, Atlanta, Friday, 28 December:

Molinari Society, 2:00-5:00 p.m. [GIV-3, room L406 (lobby level, past the fitness center; see map]:
Explorations in Philosophical Anarchy

presenters:
Matthew Quest (Independent Scholar), “Between Insurrection and Popular Self-Management: Emma Goldman and the Self-Governing Will”
Roderick T. Long (Auburn University), “Transformation or Abolition: Marriage and the Family in the Individualist Anarchist Tradition”

commentators:
Nina Brewer-Davis (Auburn University)
Charles Johnson (Molinari Institute)

Frustratingly, they’ve scheduled our session opposite a session that includes both a paper on C. L. R. James (one of Matthew’s main research interests) and a paper on the abolition of marriage. Les choses sont contre nous.

P.S. – If my online presence has been scant lately, it’s because my home internet connection is on the fritz. That’ll be corrected next year (i.e., next week).


Molinari Beach Safari

I’ve been back for nearly a week from the Liberty Fund I organised (my first time as director!) in La Jolla on Gustave de Molinari, but have been too busy with final exams and other end-of-term stuff to mention it here. Anyway, it was terrific: interesting readings, beautiful location, and some of my favourite people.

Five members of the Molinari Institute and/or Center for a Stateless Society were present. Here they are:

Sheldon Richman, Gary Chartier, Charles Johnson, Roderick Long, Jennifer McKitrick

The same people as before, silly

More pics from the conference and trip will be posted in due course.
