Anarchist Science

The purpose of an anarchist science initiative is to begin a discussion about how science and technology can be assessed and regulated from the grassroots in a bottom-up manner using direct action when appropriate.  Ideally an anarchist science initiative will share its conversation to other anarchist and civil society organisations and encourage further actions, further discussions.

Anarchism is the opposition to all forms of oppression, including Capitalism (coercive control of the means of industrial production) and Feudalism (coercive control of Land as a means of production and possibility of sustenance).  While there is no specifically “anarchist science”, an anarchist science project is perhaps best understood in opposition to the appropriation of science by capitalism and feudalism most evident in Royal Science (how science is done by the aristocrats at the Royal Society).
