The Anarchist Review
{rokbox title=|Przegląd Anarchistyczny nr 13 :: jesień-zima 2011| thumb=|images/13-m.jpg|}images/13.jpg{/rokbox} |
The Anarchist Review presents debates of radical social movements in Poland and abroad. By promoting and criticizing libertarian trends we develop knowledge about self-organisation and action strategies. You can find theoretical texts besides reports on practical activity, all with a global perspective.
WORK IN SCHOOL AND IN FACTORY
Libertarian Education: How is it possible?
Piotr Laskowski
Let us imagine a school that does not teach you to be "someone", that does not follow a clear purpose, but gives students a chance to judge things from a distance and to opt for resistance. This is what knowledge is about: to associate oneself with culture, not to take control over reality, but to create an intrinsic space both in and beyond reality. In order to prevent a situation where distance turns into isolation the school cannot be an institution, but has to be a community of friends who are understanding, caring and unselfish.
A Critique of Commodified Education and Knowledge (From Africa to Maine)
George Caffentzis
Although there previously have been eras when higher education was sold as a commodity and academics offered the knowledge "they produced" to the highest bidder, the contemporary barrier between university and market has grown so permeable that many academics are losing the sense of the distinction. Symptoms of this crisis abound everywhere around and in us. In this lecture I will challenge this commodification of academic research and higher education.

Second, I will examine the impact of neoliberal policies on university systems in Africa that, among the world's regions, have been least able to resist them.
