Reading for 8/26

From the introduction to the second issue (isiw.noblogs.org):

  • Does insurrectionary anarchism mean the conscious intensification of attack by individuals and groups? Or is it the generalization of revolt its tools and skills-to every part of society? Are these two mutually exclusive?

  • What is the point of the named group? Does this merely invite repression? Does group coherency really matter?

  • Can anonymity help mitigate state repression? Can it prevent our attacks from being recuperated into the Spectacle? Can it mean the negation of political identities and an assertion of an individualism that evades subjectivity?

  • Can guerrilla warfare truly be separated from vanguardism, specialization, and formalism? Is the anarchist guerrilla a totally different breed?
