Even after independence, the colonial structure lived on in the haciendas, the church and the state, so the indigenous communities would continue to resist, sometimes in profoundly anti-authoritarian ways. By the 19th century, and this history is courtesy Angel Capaletti's Anarchism in Latin America, as I mentioned, in 1861, a man arrived in Mexico with a very distinct name.

He was Protino Constantino Rodacanati. He was a Greek immigrant, radicalized by the revolutions in Europe and steeped in the works of Fourier, who was a utopian socialist, and Proudhon, who was an anarchist, the first anarchist. He had fled the counter-revolutionary tide crashing over the continent with a mission.

Rurikinati believed Mexico, with its long-standing indigenous traditions of communal landholding and mutual aid, was the perfect place to plant the seeds of a new utopian society. And in a lot of ways, he was right. You know, he saw in the Ejido system, the indigenous Kuna Lantanya, a living echo of the kind of society utopians in Europe could only dream of.

Where the liberal elite saw backwardness, Rudra Kanati saw potential. His aim wasn't to civilize these communities, but to learn from them and help them protect their autonomy from the encroaching state through political philosophy and praxis. He seems to be a very interesting fellow, by the way. I mean, he apparently spoke seven languages. He practiced medicine by day and philosophy by night.

He was a Christian, but not anything like the Christians that dominated Mexico at the time. Because as Angel Capaletti puts it, for him, the essence of Christianity is charity. That is love for all as it is taught in the gospels. And that essence is the moral foundation of socialism and revolution as well.

Pure Christianity, he wrote, is the religion that will regenerate the world when people finally come to understand the power of its basic principles, liberty, equality, and fraternity. But it is Christianity without dogma, like St. Simon's, and without priesthood, liturgy, or hierarchical organization, the model for which he finds the life of Jesus and his earliest followers.

Primitive Christianity is authentic Christianity, but has been entirely degraded by the Catholic and Protestant churches, and has nothing to do with so many sects that call themselves Christian. End quote. A few months after his arrival in 1861, he published a socialist primer in Mexico that marked him as the first anarchist to put forward distinctly anarchist theory in the country.
