How to create a place to live

"Even if simple, I want to work and live happily.
Is there a way to live carefree, helping each other without relying on the 'nation' or anything else?"

From the anarchism theories of David Graeber and Keiichiro Matsumura, to the initiatives of legal philosopher Kosuke Nasu in everyday life, and the practical applications at places like "Honnyarado" and "Sakaimachi Garou."
Published in 2024 by Editorial Group SURE, this book offers clues on how we can reclaim community and agency from our immediate surroundings without becoming overly dependent on the state or large systems in these challenging times, and how we can foster places and relationships where each of us can live with a sense of purpose.

The roundtable discussion format, essential to Editorial Group SURE's book production since the era when Shunsuke Tsurumi was deeply involved, gently draws readers into contemplation.

This book also includes a dialogue from the talk event "Let's Ask So Kurokawa!! Honnyarado Hanjoki" held at Yohaku-sha / NAGORO BOOKS in March, featuring author So Kurokawa and Masamichi Goda, owner of "Nishijin Honnyarado," as well as Hajime Nakao and Tonpei from "Tonpu" who were present as "audience members." What wisdom, lessons, and sometimes reflections can we, the younger generation (?), glean from the specific memories and experiences shared by those who lived the "Honnyarado" practice, and how can we apply them to our lives moving forward?
