I am clearly gonna have to write a review of Bookchin's Post-Scarcity Anarchism which contains essays eerily distinguished by their prescience.  His notes on the Forms of Freedom, i.e. self-organising government, are worth a think when considering possible political structures other than domination, force, and primitive accumulation...  I'm far from being an uncritical fan (he surely does stick foot in mouth now and then) but the grand old fellow is dead (July 30 2006, at the ripe age of 85, cantankerous to the end) and I'm inclined to cut him a few inches of slack given how bloody right he was about so many things so early on.

The difference between theory and practise in practise ...
