Adams" <ringfingers-AT-yahoo.com> Subject: [postanarchism] Jürgen Mümken: Postanarchist Thinker in Germany Are there any German speakers on this list and if so, do you know of Jürgen Mümken? Apparently he wrote a book that is still only in German called "No Power For No One" that was published by "Black Thread" in 1998. It would be interesting to hear more about this if anyone knows anything about it! Here is the electronic translation of part of an article I found on the web: *** Poststrukturalistischer anarchism in the USA First undertakes in the USA Todd May in that it argues, that the anarchism the suitable politically ethical correlate to the Poststrukturalismus of Lyotard and Foucault represents. 77 of its standpoint out of tries it that to free traditional anarchism of theoretically untenable reason acceptances: the acceptance that power would be basically repressive, 78 on that zürückgehend the acceptance a certain person nature in the traditional anarchism, through the power and domination naturally overcome become KÖNNE79To analyze direct practices of subjects would be is opposed. 80 that the poststrukturalistische practice and Machtbegirff, that power interprets as a social practices and therefore omnipresent. Todd lifts on the other hand the elements of the anarchism of fragmentation, dissimilarity, variety of companies instead of measures company and, the engagement in micropolitics" forth. 81 In Germany, Jürgen Mümken led this thought further in that it works out in appeal on Judith Butlers Dekonstruktivismus, that an anarchistic company is not marked "by the absence of power, but rather the order of an anarchistic company is displayed on that, that out of reversible Machtverhätlnisse no stiff domination conditions entwickeln",82 what by the Foucaultschen,, practices of the freedom" guaranteed will should themselves. 83 Note 83: Mümken, Jürgen: no power for no one. Attempt of an anarchistic annexation of the philosophical project of Michel Foucault, in: black thread, Jg. 19, notebook 1 (1998) ===="The world is the natural setting of and field for all my thoughts and all my explicit perceptions. Truth does not 'inhabit' only 'the inner man' or more accurately, there is no inner man, man is in the world and only in the world does he know himself." — Merleau-Ponty, Phenomenology of Perception, 1945 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
