Beyond Voting: anarchist organizing, electoral politics and developing strategy for liberation

by Chris Crass

Presidential elections are often the terrain on which radicals and anarchists debate the merits of electoral politics. This election season is no different. Social movements around the world and in the United States are declaring Bush's defeat at the ballot box a top priority. As radicals, we have consistently opposed the policies of the Bush administration and have mobilized our opposition repeatedly to the wars on Afghanistan and Iraq.

In response to the story in today's New York Times about the hardships faced by Reservists and their families as a result of the war in Iraq, I have posted an entry in my blog calling for Bush to truly support our troops by 1) providing adequate financial support for them and their families, and 2) reinstating the draft. I also call on people who truly believe our national security is at stake to volunteer themselves as recruits at their local military recruiting offices.
