Vers une rationalité libertaire

Murray Bookchin, Towards a Libertarian Rationality A distinction between the authoritarian and the libertarian modalities of reason is as decisive for thought and its history as it is for technology. A symbiotic and libertarian rationality constitutes a pervasive presence, a sensibility and a mental state and not a simple train of logic. It is on an existential level that the ambivalences of liberty must be resolved by engaging social principles, institutional imperatives and a moral consensus that contributes to the harmonization of liberty and social reality.Bookchin Murray, Blanchard Daniel.
