Thanks, Michel.  I've attached an odt file with four excerpts

Not enough time to compose a thoughtful analysis right now, I'm
afraid.  Suffice it to say I view them and mutualism as together
comprising a community of "petty bourgeois deviationists."  They all
see the system of corporate capitalism as bad, with its concentrated
wealth and centralized enterprise; they all see it as somehow the
result of privilege and corporate-government collusion; and they all
desire in some way to counteract privilege and restore a society of
economic democracy and widely distributed ownership.  They disagree
mainly on the solution.
