What will I learn today? Title: Anarchism LO: To investigate the pros and cons of a state of anarchy Knowledge: To know and understand what Anarchy looks like Skills: To evaluate whether Anarchy could work and, if so, how.

Homework Discuss the view that anarchy is better than a dictatorship. (8 marks) Note: it is worth planning this before writing it, so make a plan like this in your notes before answering it: Arguments for Arguments against

Can Anarchy work? Imagine that the head teacher and the governors decide this afternoon that we are going to be a school that works in anarchy. There will be no ‘head teacher’ or ‘governors’ The behaviour policy will not exist and there will be no punishment for breaking any rules because there are no rules You are all in control of your own actions, as are we the teachers

Can anarchy work? On your own, write down 5 bullet-points outlining what you think the school would be like as a result of this decision. Now share it with the person next to you. Do you have similar ideas? What are the benefits of this idea? What problems might it cause?

Anarchy in the world today There are very few communities successfully running in anarchy today. Why do you think this is? The idea has worked successfully in some community projects: http://www.spartacusbooks.net/#history Why do you think community projects do work, but larger communities don’t Click the link just to show how it works in some smaller communities – such as a book shop

Case study: The Arab Spring This term refers to the huge unrest in North African and Arab countries where opposition groups aimed to overthrow dictatorships. These began in 2011 and the ripples are still moving as a result. Think back to previous lessons: why might someone want to do this? What challenges might they face?

The Arab Spring: on a map

Case study: The Arab Spring Use your handout to work out the story for the 3 countries you’ve been given (Egypt, Libya and Tunisia). Each country has 3 cards and you should be able to sort them into chronological order. You can just number them, rather than cut/stick or write them out. Challenge: Should we call these ‘anarchy’ or ‘uprisings’? What is the difference?

TUNISIA – DEC/JAN EGYPT– JAN/FEB LIBYA– FEB/OCT c A desperate act by a young unemployed man on 17 December 2010 triggered a series of protests and clashes with the police. The man set fire to himself when officials in his town prevented him from selling vegetables on the streets of Sidi Bouzid without permission. This set off protests about jobs and the rising cost of food. These demonstrations then spread elsewhere. e The protests began on 25 January 2011 when Egyptians gathered in the capital city Cairo after an internet campaign. It was inspired by the protests in Tunisia in the same month. The police used water cannon and tear gas to try to stop the protesters, and the government imposed a curfew - an order that means everyone has to be indoors after a certain time of day. But the people ignored the government and even more demonstrations happened in Cairo, Alexandria, Suez and Ismailiya. g Huge anti-government protests have been raging throughout Libya. Crowds of demonstrators have been demanding that their leader, Colonel Gaddafi, quits. Libyan troops have been accused of opening fire on protesters in the city of Benghazi and estimates suggest that over 230 people have died. On 20th February 2011, protests reached the country's capital, Tripoli b It's hard to find out exactly what's going on in Libya because officials there have put loads of restrictions on the media and there aren't many foreign journalists there. The violence used by troops has been criticised by the UK, America and other western nations. h But the violent response of the authorities - with the police opening fire on demonstrators - appears to have made people more angry and ignited further protests. The unrest is also seen as being about problems with the ruling elite and the suppression of political freedoms. The clashes became much more deadly on the weekend of 8-9 January, and then spread to the capital Tunis. d On 2 February, supporters of the government surged into Tahrir Square in Cairo and violent fighting broke out between them and the protesters. Around 300 people were killed in the first 10 days of clashes. On 11 February, Egypt's Vice President Omar Suleiman announced on Egyptian TV that President Mubarak was stepping down. It was announced that the military would run the country for the time being. a Col Gaddafi had been in power for more than 40 years and is the longest-serving leader in the Arab world. Gaddafi was captured and killed in October. The opposition then held an election for a new government. i A new government has now been formed in Tunisia, after President Zine al-Abidine Ben Ali fled the country. Some people are still angry because several ministers from the former ruling party have been kept in key ministerial positions. f There are lots of other countries in that region that also don't have democracies - that's when the people choose the government, like here in the UK. Their leaders might be worried about people rising up against them in their countries, now that Egyptians have, and some other countries have since had similar experiences.

The Arab Spring The Arab Spring shows examples of uprisings. To a dictator, they can be identified as ‘anarchy’ because for the dictator, a dictatorship is the only possible ruling. So, any form of uprising against them, where the power of the dictator or state is taken away, is viewed as anarchy. Do you think the opposition should be seen as terrorists or as freedom fighters? Do you think it would be necessary to put a different government in power after overthrowing the dictatorship?
