The most extreme case of pro-immig...A great post. <br /><br />The most extreme case of pro-immigration control "anarchism" is the so-called National Anarchists who protested the SF mayday march - see http://antigerman.wordpress.com/2010/05/04/national-anarchism-sic-cont/ Clearly, in their case "anarchism" is an empty style gesture, as no anarchist could really support borders.<br /><br />I don't think Paul Stott is anywhere near in this camp. I don't think he is actually advocating immigration controls, just arguing that the left needs to understand concern about immigration. <br /><br />I think we need to make a stronger case against borders than simply shouting the slogan, a case that will appeal to those who are not already anti-authoritarian revolutionaries. <br /><br />And that is exactly why Amerie and Shakira and Gloria's interventions are so welcome!bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15439386754907203808noreply@blogger.com
