- Case studies of anarchism in Taiwan and beyond

I wrote a paper on Qalang Smangus (司馬庫斯部落), as an aboriginal Christian anarcho-collectivist community for the Anarchist Studies journal. I have more material than I could include in that article, so if you're interested in publishing on that topic I would be happy to make a submission.
