About this episode
The provided journal anthology, “Agorism in the 21st Century,” explores various facets of agorism, a philosophy advocating for counter-economics and voluntary action outside state control. The texts examine agorism’s historical roots, its relationship to cryptocurrency, and its potential to create autonomous zones. Essays also discuss markets as tools or coercive forces, and consider “cold anarchy” as a framework for international relations. Additionally, some writings present blockchain technology and crypto-anarchism as means to disrupt traditional power structures. Finally, this collection investigates alternative societal structures within the context of global pandemics and digital control.
