Pierre Ramus Society

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Pierre Ramus Society (proper name: Pierre Ramus Society ) was founded in Vienna in 1992 on the 50th anniversary of the death of the Austrian theorist and activist of anarchism and pacifism Pierre Ramus (1882–1942). Since 2003, the company has maintained an internet presence with free access to its internet magazine Knowledge .

history

The founder of the Pierre Ramus Society was Dieter Schrage (1935–2011). The aim of the company is the "current examination of the intellectual legacy of Pierre Ramus".

The libertarian views of Pierre Ramus (pseudonym for Rudolf Großmann ) are to be made accessible to a wider public with the society and the journal Knowledge . The journal Knowledge has been published at irregular intervals since 1993, in printed form until 2001 and as an Internet publication since 2002. Knowledge is the successor to the journal Knowledge and Liberation (1918 to 1936) published by Pierre Ramus . In knowledge , classic and current topics should be treated from a libertarian point of view. The main topics are the economic system, money and distribution, the problem area “Third World”, basic income, gender relations, housing, land, work, reform education and modern schools, anti-militarism and non-violence.
