It includes the material that was supposed to be collected as "Political Geography and Nationality" (theory of nationalities, etc.), "Theory of Property" (which was originally the final chapter of that work) and a history of Poland that serves as an illustration for the theoretical work.

I'm coordinating work on Proudhon's Poland manuscripts — "Political Geography and Nationality," "Theory of Property," etc. — with the French scholar transcribing them as part of his university work. That will happen on his schedule, but it's all remarkable stuff.

I'm behind on this year's projects, but the plan is to follow the work on "Justice" with the rest of the 1848-1850 journalism, with lots of additional material from the debates on the state, and a big collection of writings from the free credit projects, including a lot of little-known material.

The goal is to get through everything, but who knows... Here's a screenshot of the "to do" list, with translated titles and notes about existing translations and partial New Proudhon Library translations.

There are a handful of book-length works published during his lifetime yet to translate or complete, plus a significant number articles. The published correspondence is largely untouched. The most interesting posthumous publications are done, but there are some minor ones to complete.

Oregon boast year-round fishing opportunities, but these days, as the administration has promised to deal with antifa in the same way that they have dealt with the cartels, it's important to understand the risks...

It appears in 1983 in an American Library Association glossary in what looks like a slightly different context — but I can also only access the Spanish translation.

Among the the lessons for those elsewhere is the fact that the propaganda necessary to sustain these levels of official violence is economically destructive and can create persistent problems of various sorts, as cities gaslight themselves into believing they are more troubled than they really are.

The city and state governments eventually realized that poisoning the city with chemical munitions wasn't a winning long-term strategy, but none of the powers that be have been able to let go of the narrative they built about a troubled downtown — with the consequence that trouble has persisted.

There is nothing in Portland for this administration but a pretext, provided for them by the nightly police riots of 2020, the product of a Democratic city government collaborating with a particularly political police force in a program of collective punishment of citizens.

This Wikipedia page is actually a useful crash-course for anyone who needs to know the very political history of policing in Portland, OR en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History...

Tinkering with a Wotja-based mix this morning, it struck me that I must have half a dozen good clock and watch libraries, but the ticking sound I always seem to gravitate to is an insect clicking rhythmically in the mud, recorded in the local greenway on my phone or a pitched-down hummingbird.

It's early fall here in war-ravaged Portland and [checks notes] the community splash pads are closing...

The next couple of installments will probably be called "Widening Within" and "When Worlds Collide," but I considered racing toward a funny little fight with Stirner by calling the next one "Stepping Back Boldly."

I'm finally writing a bit on John Beverley Robinson's 1915 essay "Egoism," returning to the question of the einzige as "the only one."

Word on the street is that one round had the entire text of Otto Rühle's "The Struggle Against Fascism Begins with the Struggle Against Bolshevism" AND a complex joke involving the name "Proudhon" lovingly hand-engraved on it.

In the meantime, here is a translation of the summary added to the 1934 edition of the "Little Manual of the Individualist Anarchist" (aka "My Point of View on « Individualist Anarchism »," originally published in 1911.)

I finished a complete draft translation of E. Armand's "Anarchist Individualist Initiation" yesterday and am working on final revision and formatting for a print edition. I'll probably share chapters as the revisions are completed.

For example, I've linked an example of 2 pages of text from the "Initiation" and 30 pages of related material. It's hard to judge at this point what the size of a useful edition would be, but the nice thing about pdfs and POD publishing is that I don't have to limit myself if longer seems better.

...the long-term goal is a multi-volume, oversized, critical edition of the "Initiation," using the text as the basis for an examination of how the various ideas contained there developed across Armand's body of work and gathering related writings together.

In particular, I would like to revise the "Little Manual" one more time, making the translation uniform with the choices made for the "Initiation," which I expect to use for the rest of Armand's work. Then it's probably back into the work on Proudhon's "Justice" for several months, but...
