Anarchism and science fiction: E
J.G. Eccarius: We Should Have Killed the King (1990) Interesting and readable, but mostly non-sf, bracketed by a chapter set during the Peasants' Revolt and a chapter in a future where all but an an anarchist community have died through ecological meltdown. Dan Clore notes that ‘Eccarius was a disciple of Marx who defected to the anarchist side after the split in the International, so I suspect that J.G. Eccarius is a pseudonym.’ Greg Egan: Distress (1995), ‘Chaff’ Distress ‘portrays an anarcho-syndicalist society on the artificial island Stateless in the Pacific. The inhabitants mostly ignore anarchist thinkers like Proudhon and Bakunin; they maintain a state of anarchy by educating children in sociobiology.’ (Dan Clore) |
