In doing this it transforms political terms, methods, institutions. Democracy can't see this role it plays. All it can see, at its best, is full human power. It needs the insight of anarchism, a later development in political thought, which realises that no political power should be imposed on men. . . . Democracy in lifting the people to power makes the people free.
Democracy merges then into anarchy, the demand for full human freedom.
The democrat, to the extent that he carries his theory to its conclusions, is, and must be an anarchist. Freedom is power. We hate dictatorship. But that is only because all dictatorships we have known have been tyrannies over men, over us. What is needed, as contradictory as the terms may seem, is a fully human, a democratic dictatorship.
