Everyday Anarchism

By: Graham Culbertson
  • Summary

  • The core idea of this podcast comes from David Graeber, who wrote that our everyday life is mostly run on anarchism, and at the same time people believe that anarchism doesn’t work. One of these is wrong. I hope to illuminate how our communities already depend on Mutual Aid, in big and small ways. I'll do that by excavating the historical events and cultural trends you already know about, but have never thought about in terms of anarchism. Find me at https://www.everydayanarchism.com

    But we also talk about RFK's crusade against seed oils, what's wrong with Pod Save America, why food is so cheap in the US, the recent US presidential election, and whatever else happened to come up.

  • 139. Hill's The World Turned Upside Down -- Ann Hughes (English Revolution)
    Nov 6 2024

    A spectre is haunting the Everyday Anarchism series on the English revolution: the spectre of Christopher Hill's 1972 book The World Turned Upside Down. It turns out most of the ideas I've shared in this series came from Hill's book!

    Ann Hughes joins me to discuss the book, and we talk through the following questions:

    • Did Hill invent the idea of the English revolution?
    • How did the radicalism of the 1960s affect Hill's approach?
    • Was Winstanley an anarchist?
    • Was the English Revolution the beginning of modernity?

    Thanks so much to Ann and all the other guests in this year-long series, now (probably) concluded!
