A structured, link-rich map of agorist canon, strategic debates, mirrors, and modern praxis/tech nodes. Built for extraction: what to pull, what to ignore, and where “canon” actually lives.
This atlas is sequenced to prevent two common failure modes: (1) starting with “commentary about agorism” instead of agorism’s own primary texts; (2) building on social-media canon rather than stable archives and mirrored full texts.
Green: primary, authorized, or direct full-text sources.
Amber: interpretive layer or secondary but useful context.
Red: social indexing (useful, but volatile and manipulable).
PDF/HTML = the actual content object.
Index = a directory or author/topic page.
Mirror = redundancy / geography / resilience.
Forum = emergent curation; verify against canon.
These nodes are the “high-fidelity substrate”: authorized archives, publisher holdings, and stable full-text mirrors. If anything conflicts with this layer, the conflict is resolved here (not on social feeds).
Digitization + curation project for SEK3 books, newsletters, letters, and recorded talks. This is “where the rare stuff lands” when it’s being preserved intentionally rather than re-uploaded randomly.
The cleanest publisher-side index for editions (NLM, An Agorist Primer, Counter-Economics digital edition, etc.). Use this to avoid “mystery PDFs” and edition drift.
The canonical “strategy + frame” document for agorism / counter-economics as a revolutionary method. Maintain multiple stable access points to prevent link rot and “reformatted” edits.
The “bridging” book: compact, practical, and widely referenced. This is often the first complete entry-point that still preserves the core logic.
The cleanest “single object” anchor for counter-economics in PDF form. Treat as baseline definition object when later texts muddy boundaries.
A “late-stage” consolidated introduction. Useful for checking whether modern framings drifted from SEK3’s own final presentation.
Recurring “must reference” bridge for how agorists draw class boundaries (and how that differs from other class frameworks).
A high-signal document for tone, framing, and “how SEK3 talks when he’s not writing a manifesto.”
A compact anchor for the “anti-party / anti-electoral” line in agorist strategy. This avoids having that stance smuggled into vague moralizing.
When you need the “movement texture” (newsletters, pamphlets, strategy notes), this is where it lives. Treat as primary evidence of how ideas were operationalized.
This layer matters because it reveals the “hidden variables” that split libertarian strategy: party politics vs counter-economy; “white market reform” vs “turn white into black”; activism posture; and who the strategy is for.
The classic challenge: agorism’s audience, its relationship to organization/hierarchy, and the “wage-earner” objection. Use it as an adversarial stress test.
Direct response to the “agorism is a failure” charge. Useful for understanding what agorism claims (and refuses) when attacked by adjacent libertarian strategy.
A high-quality aggregation point that explicitly lists both the preliminary texts and the symposium sequence. Treat it as a “debate index” rather than canon itself.
A mainstream-libertarian explainer. Useful mainly as “how outsiders summarize” agorism (and what they flatten).
These are “human-readable entry indexes.” They matter because a good portal reduces search-time while increasing canonical hit-rate.
A compact portal that also hosts the clean PDF anchors (NLM, Counter-Economics, Last Whole Intro, Agorist Class Theory).
A small site explicitly structured as START HERE → LIBRARY → LINKS, plus propaganda/graphics. Treat as navigation and culture layer, not source-of-truth.
A dedicated study/research node for counter-economics and agorist definitions. (Availability may vary by network/edge; keep mirrored links elsewhere.)
A repository that appears to support “one-link” portal deployment for agorist links. Useful as infrastructure for building your own mirror/portal.
A modern portal framing itself as a decentralized network for exchange. Treat as a praxis node; verify theory against Layer A.
Mirrors matter because “availability” is a control surface. These nodes provide geography and format redundancy (HTML, EPUB, PDF, TXT).
Topic index for agorism texts with multi-format downloads. Also provides stable author pages (including SEK3).
US-hosted mirror node. Useful when primary domain access is degraded.
Regional mirror (often with broader language/UI options). Good for distribution resilience.
Useful for “frozen” historical artifacts and alternate formats (scans, djvu text, page images).
These nodes are ongoing. Treat as “modern practice + commentary libraries” and verify claims against Layer A.
C4SS hosts a concentrated cluster of modern agorist discussion, including the 2016 symposium and follow-on translations.
A modern praxis node that repeatedly uses vertical/horizontal agorism framing. Useful as a “what modern agorists emphasize now” map.
This layer is a structured modern conversation. It is valuable because it exposes current boundary disputes: agorism vs anarcho-capitalism, alliances (illegalism/syndicalism), intent vs action, and “ethical consumerism” traps.
The index page contains both (a) preliminary works list and (b) symposium essay list in sequence. Use it as the “table of contents” for this layer.
Below are the preliminary works from (or strongly aligned with) the C4SS list, with direct access where available. (One exception: the “A/U: Two-Tiered Strategy” direct URL varies by host; see the note in the links.)
Note on “A/U: The Agorist Two-Tiered Strategy” (J. Neil Schulman, Oct 16, 2012): commonly referenced as hosted on an “agorist.com” domain; the most stable entry point presently is the J. Neil Schulman agorist subdomain root above.
Direct page URL varies in some indexes; the category index reliably lists it.
A single PDF object containing multiple agorism essays (useful for offline copies and portability).
This layer is where “agorism meets tools.” Treat it as a moving frontier: useful, but also where noise, hype, and capture attempts concentrate.
Modern publication node; treat as “edge discourse” and verify theory claims against Layer A.
Useful for understanding privacy infrastructure and adversarial environments that “counter-economy” actors must navigate.
Hardware distribution node often referenced in modern privacy/counter-econ tooling discussions. Treat as a pointer, then evaluate each device with your own threat model.
This domain can include legally and ethically sensitive content. Treat as a “map of what exists,” not a default library. Keep extraction focused on general governance/rights discourse, not weaponization.
These are fast ways to see what people treat as canon, but they are volatile and can be gamed. Use them to detect consensus, then validate via Layers A–D.
Useful mainly for “what titles cluster around agorism in popular tagging,” not for content accuracy.
A quick bibliography surface for editions and related works. Validate downloads elsewhere.
Efficient for finding “what people tell newcomers.” Treat as a discovery feed, then cross-check with Layer A.
This section is the “how to pull” layer: normalize editions, prevent duplication, and keep sequence coherent. It is intentionally concrete and library-oriented (not tactics-oriented).

Title | Author | Year (as stated) | Source URL | Format | Edition/notes | Hash (sha256)This checklist prevents the most common corruption vectors when building an “ultimate library.”
• Replacing counter-economics with “brand” (coins, merch, funnels).
• Turning agorism into generic “self-help hustle” divorced from theory.
• Smuggling electoralism back in as “pragmatism.”
• Treating legality as morality (or illegality as virtue).
• Substituting memes for texts (memes are metadata, not canon).
• Social lists without primary-text links.
• Screenshotted quotes without source location (page/edition).
• Unversioned PDFs reposted without publisher/archival provenance.
• “Agorism explained” posts that never cite NLM / Primer / Counter-Economics.
• Every item gets: source URL + hash + date accessed.
• Every secondary commentary item is labeled “commentary.”
• Every tech/tool node is separated from canon (“tooling layer”).
• Every controversial claim gets paired with a primary-text anchor.
• “Agorism” used as synonym for “crime.”
• Claims that agorism is “just anarcho-capitalism.”
• Claims that agorism is “just ethical consumerism.”
• Any guide that omits “turn white into black” and the agora/arena distinction.
