Description: TEMPORARY AUTONOMOUS ZONE Hakim Bey Novel Button A 1.25" fan-made button with the words 'Temporary Autonomous Zone', the title of an anarchistic novel by Hakim Bey. T.A.Z.: The Temporary Autonomous Zone, is a book by anarchist writer and poet Hakim Bey (Peter Lamborn Wilson). The book describes the socio-political tactic of creating temporary spaces that elude formal structures of control. The essay uses various examples from history and philosophy, all of which suggest that the best way to create a non-hierarchical system of social relationships is to concentrate on the present and on releasing one's own mind from the controlling mechanisms that have been imposed on it. In the formation of a TAZ, Bey argues, information becomes a key tool that sneaks into the cracks of formal procedures. A new territory of the moment is created that is on the boundary line of established regions. Any attempt at permanence that goes beyond the moment deteriorates to a structured system that inevitably stifles individual creativity. It is this chance at creativity that is real empowerment. In the novel 'Snow Crash' by Neal Stephenson, a dealer in controlled substances had labeled their hideout T.A.Z. During the 2020 protests in America, the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) was an area of about six blocks in Seattle ceded to protesters.
