Escrita combativa e radicalidade anarquista: estudo sobre o livro inacabado de Mikhail Bakunin

Abstract

This work realizes a poetico-historical analysis of L'Empire Knouto-Germanique et la Révolution Sociale, the unfinished book of the russian anarchist Mikhail Bakunin written between november-1870 and april-1871, in the middle of the communalist movement wich took place in France during it’s war with the Prussian Empire. The goal of the work is to investigate the function of the written practice in Bakunin's militant practice in the International Workingmen's Association (1864-1876) analyzing the empirical particularities of his texts, so that we may cause stress in the historiographical field on anarchism and it's usual normative perspective over the bakuninian documental corpus. The investigation of the book and it's distinctive textual-contextual variations demonstrated that the axiological orientantion of Bakunin's authoral discourse, activated by the textual form of the book, intended to establish a place of authority to an emancipatory theorical knowledge - with all the libertarian implications of this notions for the anarchist. Thereby this dissertation tries to demonstrate how the anarchist employs the textual form of the book as a strategy to authorize and sustain an emancipatory program in the IWA.
