Re: AUT: they remember nothing and understand nothing

["stevphen shukaitis" <stevphen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

oh - and to add one more thing: I'm right in the middle of writing a
review of "Multitudes" by H&N, "Storming Heaven" by Steve, and "State
Work" by Stefano Harney (which borrows ideas around mass intellectuality
to look at public administration and the cultural construction of the
state) for the next issue of New Forumation / Perspectives on Anarchist
Theory - which I think have merged. I'll make sure to post it to this list
when I'm done with it.

cheers
