A-Infos (en) France, Alternative Libertaire AL #231 - The anti-capitalist Dico: What "expropriation"? (fr) [machine translation]

Each month, a word or phrase under scrutiny ---- No misunderstanding we are not there to 
give a course in administrative law and study different cases in which a private person 
may be expropriated by the State or a public authority. This is the expropriation in a 
revolutionary process which precedes the collectivization of land and means of production. 
The expropriation of all time shook the bourgeoisie. One realized the Durruti Column in 
Spain after releasing a village fascist presence in 1936 allowing men and women workers to 
collectivize the land. ---- He had to seize the landowners, the dispossessed. 
Expropriation is to end the system of private property that characterizes capitalism. They 
are also self-Italian revolutionary movement of 1977 requisitioned housing to occupy or to 
allow families to stay.

These are people who are fighting to regain their lands were monopolized by multinationals 
in the 90s. Expropriation, the libertarian communist theorist Peter Kropotkin intended 
action that would make the workers while allowing anyone to exploit. It is all the more 
legitimate by the famous Italian anarchist communist Errico Malatesta it puts an end to 
capitalist exploitation. It allows to change the background of the regime and destroy 
capitalism in practice by organizing communism. But the seizure of the means of production 
and appropriation of natural resources should not be done by state intervention, it is not 
a question of establishing a bureaucratic collectivism or remain in a state capitalism.

Expropriations should be organized by the people themselves, workers or not, whether or 
not members of revolutionary unions or popular councils following the needs of the 
population, whether immediate or future. Expropriation will both end private property that 
said public property, that of the State. The expropriation is a movement that will end all 
forms of mediation that saturate social relations capitalism. Thus ending the state but 
also the rule of money that will be no use. Expropriation must allow self-organization of 
the population must not lead either to self exploit, so this is to end the reign of the 
goods and labor as it exists in capitalism.

Capitalism that is itself rooted in what Marx called "the original expropriation" to 
describe the long process of primitive accumulation of capital, which is made by the 
violence, murder, looting, the enslavement ... and that continues today in many parts of 
the world. If the revolutionary expropriation is legitimate, it is precisely because it 
comes back to what was originally the capital and unduly taken.
