Anarchism in Japan[edit]

I like this article. I plan on contributing to it eventually. :) I had been thinking of creating this article. --Grrrlriot (talk) 16:41, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I had already begun researching for this article. You can make use of the Anarchism in Japan section of my sandbox for more information.--Cast (talk) 02:47, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Anarchism in Japan now[edit]

"There are a few websites by anarcho-syndicalists and anarcho-communists, and some small collectives active in Kyoto, Osaka and Tokyo", I removed this sentence because I have searched myself during a long time japanese anarchist, active organisations in Japan now, which at least publish a newspaper and have a website, and I have to admit that it doesn't exist, now, in 210 (I've been 1 year to Japan, and searching a lot on internet; I can speak and read japanese). If someones know some of these japanese anarchist organisations, I would be very surprised, and happy to know the name of these organisations (and their newspaper etc). --Furansowakun4 (talk) 16:28, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Questionable Source[edit]

Seems most of the material here comes from a single source and a questionable one at that. Libcom.org This should be changed. -Xcuref1endx (talk) 23:48, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Crump pamphlet[edit]

My edits & thoughts[edit]

Hi, over the past month-ish I've set out to expand and improve this article, which I did in stages, increasing its size from 14k bytes to 52k bytes today. In doing so, I've rewritten the entire article piece by piece, mostly with the sources that have been available to me. If someone wants to re-evaluate the quality class of this article, please do, but I think I'll take a break from editing now that I'm done with this rather large project.

I have several thoughts, so they'll go here in bullet-point fashion:

  • There are a couple sections that rely strongly on a single source (no section does so entirely), and particularly I'd point out the Connection to Korean anarchism section & the 1923-1945 section
  • The article does spend a lot of time discussing pre-anarchist groups like Heimin-sha, which is not strictly relevant, but I included it in my writing because it had both been there beforehand and was seen as relevant by Japanese anarchists after the fact
  • There's a lot of potential for a 'Feminism' section, if anyone wants to write it, based particularly on people like Ito Noe and Takamure Itsue
  • I've gotten rid of all the Crump pamphlet (1996b in the citations) references, just in case

I think that's it for all the strictly-relevant stuff. Even though I'm taking a break, you can feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions! Sparkledriver (talk) 22:15, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
