Murray Bookchin, a man I regard as my intellectual grandfather, died last month at his home in Burlington. He brought together a rigorous synthesis of ecological, economic, and social theory, which rejected authoritarianism in all its forms, whether found on the right or the left of the political spectrum. He continued to write into his eighties and, while I will never match his output or his acuity, I hope to at least match his longevity. His ideas are more relevant now than ever and I encourage you to read his work.
