ABSTRACT

Anarchist! The very word conjures up visions of dangerous men in black cloaks with bombs, wild acts of uncontrolled violence, bloody insurrection, rape, looting and the complete breakdown of imposed law and order. Contrary to popular belief, the majority of anarchists, though certainly not pacifists, are neither inclined to violence, mostly being peace-loving persons who want no more than to live in a truly free society, where men treat men with respect for human dignity. Governments who supposedly represent law and order and all that is supposed to be peace loving in society. A society in which the population itself controls its own means of production. For centuries the working man has been robbed of the reward of his own labor. It is a hard fact of life that a very small minority control the destiny of the majority purely through economic dominance, yet the very ones who produce that wealth are the ones who are exploited.
