Today In Labor History April 7, 1870: German-Jewish anarchist and pacifist, Gustav Landauer, was born. He was friends with, and influenced, the Jewish philosopher Martin Buber. He served as the Commissioner of Enlightenment and Public Instruction during the short-lived Bavarian Soviet Republic, during the German Revolution of 1918–1919, but was killed when the republic was overthrown. He was also the grandfather of film director, Mike Nichols (The Odd Couple, Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf and The Graduate).

Today In Labor History April 4, 1866: Russian revolutionary, Dmitry Karakozov attempted to assassinate Czar Alexander II. He failed and the government executed him. Some believe that Karakozov chose the year 1866, since that was the year in which a character in Chernyshevsky’s “What Is To Be Done?” planned to launch a revolution. In the book, the protagonist, Vera Pavlovna, escapes a controlling family, and an arranged marriage, to start a socialist cooperative and a truly egalitarian romantic partnership. She starts a seamstress commune, with shared living quarters, profit-sharing and an on-site school to further the women’s education. Chernyshevsky wrote the novel in response to Turgenev’s “Fathers and Sons.” He wrote the book while imprisoned in the Peter and Paul fortress. The book inspired generations of Russian radicals, including the nihilists, anarchists and even many Marxists.

Dignity, Diversity, Anarchy
Proceedings of the Workshops ‘Human Dignity in Europe’ and ‘the Anarchist Critique of the State, the Law and Authority’ Held at the 29th World Congress of the International Association for Philosophy of Law and Social Philosophy in Lucerne 2019
The contributions in this volume add innovative insights to the debate on domination, power, dignity and the future of society. Problems of heteronomy are fundamental to the anarchist critique of the principle of domination and at the same time central for the discussion of the concept of human dignity. The debates on dignity and diversity and on anarchist perspectives of domination-free organisation are particularly relevant in view of the softening of traditional power structures and the emergence of new ones, especially in the age of globalisation on the one hand and the resurgence of nationalist …
