In the anarchist milieu, communism, individualism, collectivism, mutualism and all the intermediate and eclectic programmes are simply the ways considered best for achieving freedom and solidarity in economic life; the ways believed to correspond more closely with justice and freedom for the distribution of the means of production and the products of labour among men.

Now culture being a social product, I firmly believe that any work of art should have a social function to beautify, to glorify, to dignify man...

That is not social justice or any other kind of justice.
