“In the course of his long, turbulent career, W. E. B. Du Bois attempted virtually every possible solution to the problem of twentieth-century racism...scholarship, propaganda, integration, national self-determination, human rights, cultural and economic separatism, politics, international communism, expatriation, third world solidarity.” WorldHumansLongSelfProblemCoursesCareersRightsEconomicCenturyRacismSolutionsDeterminationThirdsInternationalHuman RightsCommunismPropagandaSelf DeterminationSolidarityIntegrationTwentieth CenturyScholarshipThird World Author:David Levering Lewis
“The communism of Karl Marx would probably be actually the best for everybody as a whole. But what he didn't figure into was human nature, and that's what corrupts it.” HumansWholeHuman NatureFiguresCommunism Author:Jesse Ventura
“Women's liberation, if not the most extreme then certainly the most influential neo-Marxist movement in America, has done to the American home what communism did to the Russian economy, and most of the ruin is irreversible. By defining relations between men and women in terms of power and competition instead of reciprocity and cooperation, the movement tore apart the most basic and fragile contract in human society, the unit from which all other social institutions draw their strength.” IfsMenHumansDoneHomeAmericaSocialTermEconomyMovementDrawsMen And WomenRelationInstitutionsCompetitionExtremesRuinsCommunismLiberationContractsCooperationFragileUnitsDefiningInfluentialHuman SocietyMarxistReciprocityIrreversibleSocial InstitutionsRussian Economy Author:Ruth Wisse
“Christianity has held back any further advances in human consciousness for the past thousand years. And for the past century it's been in direct conflict with its illegitimate offspring, Communism (again with a capital C). Both ask the individual to sacrifice his self-interest to the higher goals of the organization. (Which is okay by me as long as it's voluntary; but as soon as either becomes too big - and takes on that damned capital C - they stop asking for cooperation and start demanding it.) Any higher states of human enlightenment have been sacrificed between these two monoliths.” YearsHumansLongHas BeensTwoSelfStatesBigsPastAsksIndividualGoalInterestConsciousnessChristianitySacrificeCenturyHigherThousandConflictEnlightenmentDirectOkayOrganizationAskingCommunismCooperationThousand YearsSelf InterestOffspringHuman ConsciousnessHigher Goals Author:David Gerrold
“In the anarchist milieu, communism, individualism, collectivism, mutualism and all the intermediate and eclectic programmes are simply the ways considered best for achieving freedom and solidarity in economic life; the ways believed to correspond more closely with justice and freedom for the distribution of the means of production and the products of labour among men. Bakunin was an anarchist, and he was a collectivist, an outspoken enemy of communism because he saw in it the negation of freedom and, therefore, of human dignity.” MenWayHumansMeanJusticeEnemySawsEconomicAchieveProductsDignityProductionsCommunismLabourIndividualismSolidarityDistributionAnarchismAnarchistProgrammesCollectivismHuman DignityEclecticNegationOutspokenMilieu Book:Life and Ideas: The Anarchist Writings of Errico Malatesta Source: Life and Ideas: The Anarchist Writings of Errico Malatesta
