These anarchist principles which were formulated under the inspiration of Bakunin at the Congress of St. Imier 1872 continue to point a good direction for us today. Those who have tried to act in contradiction to them have disappeared because however defined government dictatorship and parliament can only lead the people back to slavery. All experience so far bears this out. Needless to say for the delegates of St. Imier as for us and all anarchists the abolition of political power is not possible without the simultaneous destruction of economic privilege.
