Colin Ward

    14. srpen 1924 – 11. únor 2010

    Colin Ward byl vlivný britský anarchista a autor, jehož dílo se soustředilo na nehierarchické formy společenské organizace a na řešení problémů bydlení a plánování pomocí anarchistických principů. Zabýval se zejména tématy jako je svépomocné bydlení, neformální osidlování a kritika přebujelých plánovacích regulací. Ward obhajoval flexibilnější přístup k bydlení, který by umožnil lidem stavět si vlastní domovy postupně a v menších celcích, inspirován architektonickými systémy jako byl ten od Waltera Segala. Jeho vize spočívala v odstranění autoritářských struktur a jejich nahrazení samosprávnými, decentralizovanými komunitami, kde mají byrokratické tendence nejmenší prostor k rozvoji.

    • Shed all the tears for one-hundred more years,but our compass is now moral-rotten.How dare we proclaim each year just the samewhen each war says we’ve all long forgotten?Silhouette in the Sunset has been created in tribute to the 100th year anniversary of the end of World War One. It is an unashamed pacifist voice throughout, written from a philosophical, social, political, and personal perspective.I hope to have captured a range of expression through rhythm, form, language and imagery, raising more questions than ever attempting to offer answers or solutions. Perhaps one major theme is how it seems increasingly difficult in this morally fractured world to truly differentiate between friend and foe.

      The argument of this book is that an anarchist society, a society which organises itself without authority, is always in existence. Through a wide-ranging analysis - drawing on examples from education, urban planning, welfare, housing, the environment, the workplace, and the family, to name but a few - Colin Ward demonstrates that the roots of anarchist practice are not so alien or quixotic as they might at first seem but lie precisely in the ways that people have always tended to organise themselves when left alone to do so.

      The collection of essays delves into the history of informal housing movements, exploring the lives of squatters, cotters, plotlanders, travellers, and settlers. It also examines the significance of water and the concept of the gift relationship, alongside contemporary anarchism. Ward's work stands out for its practical application of anarchist principles, showcasing how these ideas manifest in everyday life and societal structures.

      What do anarchists want? Can anarchy ever function effectively as a political force? Is anarchism more 'organized' and 'reasonable' than is currently perceived? Colin Ward explains what anarchism means and who anarchists are in this illuminating and accessible introduction to the subject.
