 so, you would perhaps not be in complete accord with Robin's
 appellation of "anarchist miracle" to Boulanger's ascendancy?
 
 Proudhon was the proto-anarchist who, Whitman-like, wrote
 both that "property is theft" and "property is freedom"
 (although, as Cyprian's friend noted, not all of us are
 allowed poetic license in equal measure, and political science
 might be a place where it's appreciated less rather than more)
 
 I would think though that Proudhon's philosophy would in any
 construction be inimical to royalists...
