Essay #100: Ruth Kinna, ‘Mutual Aid: What It Is and What It Is Not’
This essay is adapted from Jim Donaghey's excellent collection, Fight for a New Normal? Anarchism and Mutual Aid in the Covid-19 Pandemic Crisis . It discusses some of the applications of 'mutual aid' in government agencies and its articulation in nineteenth century anarchist thought to flesh out a grassroots, transformative conception.
Ruth Kinna is a member of the Anarchism Research Group at Loughborough University and the author of The Government of No One.
