20th century aristotle

herbert read was an incredible man: pacifist, artist, poet, and philosopher. he wrote over 60 books, and "anarchy and order" was by far his finest. its a clear deconstruction of anarcho-syndocolist thought, and how the ideology relates to art and society. as in the early 20th century, anarchism is considered juvenile and ridiculous today. but it is the most egalitarian and organic form of social organization. if we didn't have a bunch of land-owning nobles ruling our lives we'd all be better off.
