Abstract

Anarchist practices of direct action, decentralization, leaderless resistance, and mutual aid animate many forms of progressive activism that today percolate around the globe. For a new generation of activists, such practices are part of a more general anti-authoritarian reorientation to social life and social change. Here I suggest that this reorientation is worth exploring on its own terms, given that misunderstanding is all but assured if we try to make sense of it in the context of more conventional approaches. I argue in turn that street-level anarchist practices can productively reengage contemporary criminology with an increasingly uncertain world; attune criminology to the contested political dynamics of the present day; and help confront the precarious status of criminology and its practitioners.
不确定时代的无政府主义犯罪学
无政府主义的直接行动、权力下放、无领导抵抗和互助实践激发了当今全球渗透的许多形式的进步激进主义。对于新一代活动家来说,这种做法是对社会生活和社会变革进行更普遍的反独裁重新定位的一部分。在这里,我认为,这种重新定位本身就值得探索,因为如果我们试图在更传统的方法的背景下理解它,误解几乎是肯定的。反过来,我认为街头无政府主义实践可以有效地将当代犯罪学与一个日益不确定的世界重新结合起来;使犯罪学适应当今有争议的政治动态;并帮助应对犯罪学及其从业人员的不稳定状况。
