all aspects of authority and hierarchy, which
means it is against state, against capital,
against church, and, important for feminism,
against patriarchy. However, like all
the movements of that time, historical anarchism
was a male- dominated movement
and the male anarchists didn’t write anything
or go into any detail concerning the
future position of women. Ultimately, they
were only children of their time.
Proudhon, the founder of anarchism, was
overtly misogynous and wished it to be understood
that women can only be mothers or
whores; he wanted to change all the values
of society, but not the relations within the
family. Women anarchists were confronted
with discrimination – with sexism, however
you wish to call it, in anarchist circles, and
of course in relation to society, which was
radically different. They wrote much more
about the question of women, and in a more
detailed way, than male anarchists.

Prudon je bio otvoreno protiv žena, on
je poručio da žene mogu biti samo majke
ili kurve, hteo je da promeni sve vrednosti
društva, ali nije hteo da promeni odnose u
porodici. Žene anarhistkinje su se susretale
sa diskriminacijom – seksizmom, kako god
to nazvali, kako u okviru anarhističkog pokreta
tako naravno u odnosu na društvo koje
je bilo radikalno drugačije. One su pisale o
ženskom pitanju, mnogo više i mnogo detaljnije
nego što su muškarci anarhisti pisali.
80ih godina 19. veka težište anarhističkog
pokreta se iz Evrope, usled velike emigracije
iz Rusije i iz centralne Evrope, seli u Ameriku.
Emigranti odlaze u Ameriku noseći sa
sobom nove ideje socijalizma, socijaldemokratije
i anarhizma.

mnogi drugi budući anarhisti i anarhistkinje
