Sorta P (that strain of anti-state rebellious 'self-organizing" anarchism in P's work)........from a review of Luke Harding's INVASION.

[Mark Kohut]

 "While Russia’s current society is “vertical in their thinking, always
looking feudally upward,” Ukrainians are “horizontal — a collective or
superorganism.” He quotes a friend, the acclaimed Ukrainian novelist Andrey
Kurkov, describing his nation as an “organized anarchy” of freedom-loving
individualists. In this context, the supposed weakness of Ukraine’s prewar
polity — its corrupt politicians and feeble central state — are recast as
strengths. The Ukrainian philosopher Volodymyr Yermolenko is quoted
expanding on the idea, arguing that “a leitmotif of Ukrainian literature,
historiography, and philosophy is opposition to the centralized idea of
state and universe.” This makes it a society that’s very difficult to
govern in normal times, but very effective at overthrowing bad governments
or resisting an invasion launched by the power-mad dictator next door."

I jotted here some notes and quotes from another new book by an
anthropologist on Ukraine.....called "Without the State".....

This anecdote from it sums up the key aspect of this strain.....It is about
the resistance in Crimea n 2014....Writer asked how the resistance was
"organized"....."word spread there was to be a meeting"...."we showed up
and were told what needed done and we each chose what to do".....
