The current civilized and globalized model of parenting stems from the model of civilization and its methods of domestication. As Pavlov, the famous Russian animal “psychologist” observed, if you deny dogs access to food, you can train them to do anything you like by promising to give them a little bit. Of course, Pavlov was no revolutionary, for, civilization has been using these dressage methods from the beginning of “totalitarian agriculture”, where in order for it to work, food, forests, land, and water had to be taken away from living beings and their ability to know the world had to be stomped out; i.e. they had to be alienated from their own pain, from the pain of their children and from the suffering of the world and those who couldn’t adapt or be “educated” were exterminated. Today, daycare and school begin this dressing as early as at one month of age and drum it in continuously throughout our lives. Regaining our ability to feel and to empathize with what the others feel is vital for the process of unschooling or undressing ourselves in order to gain the knowledge of what and how the world endures so as to transmit to future generations this ability to know how the other feels so that the world and our children may live

John Zerzan: Anarcho-Primitivism versus a Darkening Reality 2/2

Sasha Miltsov — Sun, 20 Dec 2009 23:05:07 +0000

John Zerzan is an anarchist and philosopher whose critique of civilization and call for a non-domesticated form of life has been described as “primitivist”. Zerzan has analyzed agricultural and industrial society in detail and has drawn on anthropological research on prehistoric and other “primitive” societies in describing egalitarian and non-alienated ways of communal life. Zerzan has contributed to anarchist theory for decades, especially on topics of ecology, anti-technology, post-leftism and postmodernity. He is the author of several books, including Against Civilization, Running On Emptiness and Twilight of the Machines. He has also served as editor of Green Anarchy: A Journal of Anti-Civilization Theory and Practice since 2001.

Зерзан в Москве

;Если вы обитаете в Москве, очень рекомендую посетить:

14 июня в 12.00 в Центре современного искусства “Винзавод” состоится публичная лекция американского философа-неолуддита Джона Зерзана под названием «Примитивистский взгляд на углубляющийся кризис цивилизации».

Джона Зерзана называют самым интересным мыслителем нашего времени: в своих работах Джон критикует цивилизацию, технический прогресс и символическую культуру. По его мнению, все современные общественные и властные институты должны быть уничтожены. Книги Зерзана стали теоретической базой для образования нового течения в анархизме – анархо-примитивизма.

Издав несколько книг и журналов, Джон Зерзан стал настолько популярным, что на основе его интервью было снято несколько документальных фильмов, часть которых будет показана в рамках лекции.

Вход свободный.

Адрес:
м. Курская, 4-й Сыромятнический переулок, дом 1, стр. 6, Бродильный цех (6ой корпус).

В прошлом году он приезжал в Монреаль, о чем мы подробно рассказывали. И показывали.

Beyond the Symbolic and towards the Collapse

Отснял, смонтировал и загрузил на ютуб все три видео конференций Дж. Зерзана в Монреале. Обитатели ютуба в восторге.

Лейла написала подробное и чрезвычайно оригинальное вступление:

John Zerzan is one of the most interesting contemporary thinkers in the United States, at least. Like everything else in life, in order to fully appreciate Zerzan’s contribution to epistemology or the philosophy of civilisation, first, one has to read his work and hear his conferences – for, here, I only present my personal interpretation of his theory – and second, consider the context through which his voice and energy resonate. His contribution becomes even more impressive in light of the processes of Western institutionalisation of Thought and commodification of Knowledge – a totalitarian context that tolerates no challenge (philosophical or otherwise) that would threaten “the American way of life…
