- The Generality of Anarchy by Aaron Dowdy. Excerpt: “I do not want to think of flexibility as anarchy able to be organized, or organization able to become anarchic. I don’t want to think of little anarchic objects, or little organized withstanders. I merely want to assert here a general theory of anarchy which is concerned with how something might flexibly withstand the anarchy of the material world. For Heliogablus, he played with the world: it was theatre. But it can be anything, for all that withstands withstands through anarchy.”
