Political Action and the Workers Appendix Liberty for all and a natural respect for that liberty such are the essential conditions of international solidarity. --Bakunin Foreword In my book Michael Bakunin and Karl Marx I stated in a footnote that I intended to reprint ce mortgage lender usa rtain passages from Bakunin in a booklet to be entitled Marxism Anarchism and the State. The present work is a fulfillment of that intention but I have slightly altered the titl mortgage lender usa e because on reflection I felt that Bakunin was here treating of wider and deeper matters than merely the merits of one political philosophy as against another. He was treating of the whole question of mans freedom in relation to society to the community. This question is the supreme question of our generation. On its solution depends the fate of the human race for if the answer to the question of mans freedom in relation to the community is to be the totalitarian answer that he has none then indeed can the march of human progress be said to have come to its end. And that end bearing in mind the circumstances of this atomic age can only be amidst war and universal destruction. In many parts of his writings Bakunin has given his views on the nature and possibilities of human freedom--which he sharply differentiated from egoism and self centred individualism. Apart from that reproduced on the first page of the extracts perhaps the best definition he has given is that couched in the following words We understand by liberty on the one hand the development as complete a mortgage lender usa s possible of all the natural faculties of each individual and on the other hand his independence not as regards natural and social laws but as regards all the laws imposed by other human wills whether collective or separate. When we demand the liberty of the masses we do not in the least claim to abolish any of the natural influences of any individual or of any group of individuals which exercise their action on them. What we want is the abolition of artificial privileged legal official influences. (Michael Bakunin and Karl Marx p. 300) With this view of liberty is linked Bakunins view of authority which he by no means equates with organisation and self-discipline which in themselves he regarded as very desirable. What he meant by authority namely mortgage lender usa mortgage lender usa the right to command or to enforce obedience was considered by him to be fundamentally of religious origin. The idea of an authoritarianism that it is our duty to obey authority is derived according to his theory from religious origins even when it has later taken political forms. Hence the opposition to religion which takes a prominent position in his writ mortgage lender usa ings much more so than in those of the Marxians and which sometimes is rather violently expressed. There is also another reason for the criticism of religion and churches that is to be found so frequently in his writings and that is the close connection between religion and the State which distinguishes the Hegelian philosophy against which Bakunin had rebelled. It is pointed out by Gide and Rist The State according to Hegel is an aggression of the spirit realising itself in the conscience of the world while nature is an expression of the same spirit without the conscience an alter ego--a spirit in bondage. God moving in the world has made the State possible. Its foundation is in the might of reason realising itself in will. It is necessary to think of it not merely as a given State or a particular institution but of its essence or idea as a real manifestation of God. Every State of whatever kind it may be part mortgage lender usa akes of this divine essence. (A History of Economic Doctrines p. 435) Now this close identification of the spirit of God and the spirit of the State is reason enough why Bakunin as an enemy the State should also have considered it necessary to attack religion. Thus the term God and the State later applied by its editors to a fragment of his works is quite fitting. The Marxians on the other hand as adherents of the State and as champions of authority found no such necessity for making a frontal attack on religion and encountered accordingly much less of the animous of religiously-minded people than was the fate of the Anarchists. Opinions may differ in the Socialist movement itself as to the relative importance to be given to the discussion of the religious questions but the matter is mentioned here only in order to explain Bakunins attitude and to show that it had a logical development whether or not it were the best tactic to pursue and whether or not its fundamental assumptions were correct. As will be indicated in more detail in the following biography the extracts printed in this volume are taken mainly from those writings of Bakunin touching on his controversy with Marx and therefore belong to the years 1870-72 but the passages dealing with the nature and characteristics of the State in general are mostly taken from Federalism Socialism and Anti-Theologianism written in 1867 and based as the title indicates on the above-mentioned close connection to his mind between the State and religion. It is not only the question of the relation of Marxian doctrines to those of freedom and of the State so much discussed in the following pages that gives them interest and importance but also the light they throw on the system that now exists in Soviet Russia and which calls itself Socialist and democratic where it is in reality neither the one nor the other but essentially capitalistic and totalitarian or as Bakunin expressed it in a passage to be quoted later all work performed in the employ of the State. Bakunin showed in the early seventies of the nineteenth century that such a system must result if it is attempted to transform society on an authoritarian basis the existence in the middle of the twentieth century of that portentious phenomenon the Soviet Government has proved him up to the hilt to be right. In the words of his friend and collaborator James Guillaume How could one want an equalitarian and free society to issue from an authoritarian organisation? It is impossible. Melbourne 1950. K. J. Kenafick Life of Bakunin Michael Alexandrovitch Bakunin was born on 30th May 1814 in the Russian province of Tvar. He was the eldest son of a retired diplomat who was a member of the ancient Russian nobility. Young Michael passed his boyhood on the family estate and gained there an insight into the peasant mentality which is reflected in his later writings. At the age of fifteen after a good home education under tutors he was sent to St. Petersburg to study for and enter the Artillery School. After five years of military studies he was posted as ensign to a regiment stationed in Poland but the monotonous life of a remote garrison soon proved highly unpalatable to this very sociable and highspirited young aristocrat. He threw up his commission and the whole military career and adopted instead that of a student in Moscow. The adolescence and young manhood of Bakunin were spent under the iron despotism of the Tsar Nicholas I the most consistently reactiona mortgage lender usa ry that Russia had ever known and the most rigidly repressive till the dictatorship of Joseph Stalin. Under this regime every type of liberalism of even the mildest kind whether in politics literature or religion was ruthlessly crushed. In philosophy alone did there seem to be any chance for discussion and those who would in Western countries have turned to politics devoted their attention in Russia to philosophy. Bakunin was one of these and in fact at this time his interest in politics appears to have been nil. His favourite philosophers were Fichte and Hegel from the former he learned that freedom liberty independence were the highest expression of the moral law from the latter the dominating philosopher of the time he gained a knowledge of the Dialectic the theory that all life and history constitute a process of the reconciliation of opposites on a higher plane--or as Hegel expressed it thesis antithesis and synthesis. From this there naturally arose a theory of historic evolution. Five years of Bakunins life (1835-40) were spent in the study of philosophy at Moscow and then he went to Berlin to imbibe more knowledge of his subject at its fountainhead. The political and intellectual atmosphere of Germany though reactionary compared to those of France and England was almost progressive as compared with Russia and some of the younger adherents of Hegel began to develop Radical ideas from his doctrine of the Dialectic. Prominent among these was Ludwig Feuerbach whose book The Essence of Christianity took a decidedly materialistic in fact atheistic attitude. It mortgage lender usa converted many young intellectuals to its viewpoint and among these were Karl Marx Friedrich E mortgage lender usa ngels and Michael Bakunin. The latters intellectual evolution had now begun--the evolution that was to turn him from an orthodox subject of the Tsar into a Materialist a Revolutionary Socialist and an Anarchist. In 1842 he went to Dresden in Saxony and in October published in Arnold Ruges Deutsche Fahrbuecher an article entitled Reaction in Germany which led to revolutionary conclusions and which ended with words th | |||||||||||||
