<b>Especifismo</b> is an [[anarchist]] [[praxis]] which originates in [[South America]]. Some [[argue]] that it is a [[natural]] [[evolution]] of the [[ideas]] of [[Platformism]] and [[Sintetismo]]. It [[involves]] "1) The [[need]] for a [[specifically]] anarchist [[organization]] [[built]] around a [[unity]] of ideas and praxis. 2) The [[use]] of the specifically anarchist organization to [[theorize]] and [[develop]] [[strategic]] [[political]] and [[organizing]] work. 3) [[Active]] [[involvement]] and building of [[autonomous]] and [[popular]] [[social movements]], called [['social insertion]].' The [[praxis]] [[implies]] the [[existence]] of an orginization that [[manifests]] an [[open]] and specifically anarchist [[adhesion]]. This would be done in order to [[disseminate]] anarchist ideas in a [[form]] that can be visible to the [[militant]] anarchist [[element]] of [[society]]. Especifismo is a praxis that [[expresses]] itself in the [[national]] and [[regional]] anarchist organizations of the world.

'''James Moore''' (b. [[June 10]], [[1976]]) is the [[Canada|Canadian]] Member of [[Parliament of Canada|Parliament]] for [[Port Moody—Westwood—Port Coquitlam]].

Before being elected to parliament, Moore hosted a conservative [[talk radio]] show. He was elected to parliament in the [[Canadian federal election, 2000|2000 federal election]] beating incumbent Liberal [[Lou Sekora]], as a member of the [[Canadian Alliance Party]]. In [[2003]] the party became the [[Conservative Party of Canada]]. In 2004, Moore won a tough fight for re-election, winning with 41% support down from 51% the previous election.

In parliament, Moore served in a variety of posts as a member of the [[official opposition]]. He is often regarded as a possible candidate for a [[cabinet]] position, should a Conservative government be elected.

Moore is known for having liberal views on social issues that sometimes put him in conflict with other members of his party. In 2004 he voted in favor of [[same sex marriage]].

He is one of several members of the House of Commons to have a [[blog]].

==Controversies==

In 2004 James Moore was caught by the NDP for posting false endorsements on the Internet. First it was Ken Woodward's (the president of the Chamber of Commerce), then the Nova Scotia NDP MP Peter Stoffer's. Moore, however, did not offer any apologies for his misconducts.

James Moore also made disturbing and dangerous comments on women's right in the past. The information is not uploaded on Wikipedia, due to disturbing nature of the subject matter. James Moore has also shown his political shapeshifting skills. He was first a pro-life, then somewhat in the middle, then pro-choice. It is very difficult to grasp where James Moore stands, as he always jumps back and forth like a frog.

James Moore has not voted against the Same Sex Legislation, which he promised his supporters that he would do. James Moore claimed that he was on his way, and he 'missed' the vote. However, many suspect that James Moore is an opportunist who didn't want to disturb the Red-Tories who favored the Same Sex Bill. Supporters of the Conservative Party, especially the Christian Right, have cried foul on James Moore for having such a liberal view on un-Christian and disturbing sexual behaviors.
