Hans Widmer (born 1947), known also by his pseudonym P.M. (taken from the most common initials in the Swiss telephone directory, mostly spelled in lowercase, p.m.) is a Swiss author. [1] He is best known for his 1983 anarchist / anti-capitalist social utopian book bolo'bolo (Semiotext(e), 2011. ISBN 9780936756080)
The title of this book refers to the bolo, or an autonomous community corresponding to the anthropological unit of a tribe (a few hundred individuals). This would be the basic social unit in an envisioned utopian-ecological future; its name is an example of a word from the constructed language (or rather, a basic vocabulary of about thirty words) called asa'pili.
