(en) Anarkismo.net: Exchange on "Black Flame" with "Anarchist Studies" between Spencer Sunshine and Lucien van der Walt

12 часов 22 минуты назад
Anarchist Studies , which describes itself as "an inter-disciplinary journal of scholarly research into the history, culture and theory of anarchism", recently carried a critical review of Black Flame by Spencer Sunshine. The authors were permitted to write a reply, which addressed some of the issues raised by Sunshine. ---- In summary , Sunshine's review praised Black Flame for "the best assemblage of research I have encountered on classical anarchism’s complex relationship to questions of nationalism, imperialism and race", and its "stress on the rich anarchist and syndicalist traditions in Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean," "a ‘crucial corrective to Eurocentric accounts’". However, he also claimed the book was "infuriating", since it had a "highly unusual" definition of anarchism (i.e. anarchism as a form of libertarian socialism), ...

(en) Poland, Warsaw, Historic Victory for Tenants*

ПТ, 03/09/2010 - 00:57
The Tenants Defense Committee* managed to stop the privatization of one house on Targowa St. in Warsaw. This is an historic moment: as far as we know, this is the first privatization in Poland that has been successfully stopped by protest!--- In addition, the city has agreed to recommunalize part of the building which was under claim. This means that the entire property (which consists of several buildings) will remain municipal housing! Tenants who live in reprivatized builldings often face huge rent hikes and eviction. ----- The Committee is currently fighting a couple of privatization attepts. It is common in Poland that extensive fraud is committed during reprivatization and that there is no independant process of verifying claims and documents. ...

(en) Spain, Barcelona: Flightcare takes Revenge against CNT for Strike (ca)

ЧТ, 02/09/2010 - 23:45
After days of partial strikes in Flightcare Barcelona, the management has taken revenge on union activists. The following is a translation from the CNT: ---- Brutal Dismissal in Flightcare, Barcelona ---- Flightcare has dismissed the delegate of the Union Section of he CNT in a cowardly manner. We from the l'Hospitalet Local Federation of Trade Unions declare that this is a despicable act and shows that Flightcare, despite belonging to a multinational as powerful as Fomento de Construcciones y Contratas, deeply fears the mobilization of workers. Far from ending the labor dispute, what they have achieved is further aggravating the situation in a stupid and irrational manner. We will not allow the rights of workers to be mocked in this way and this is why we announced that we support the protests the Section is agreeing with the staff for the reinstatment of the dismissed ...

(en) Debate on Industrial Organising in Australia - Project "X" - Worker Solidarity Network Manifesto

ЧТ, 02/09/2010 - 17:44
We have a problem. Australia currently has the lowest rate of strikes and industrial action in history. The Fair Work legislation, and previously the Work Choices legislation, limits the legality of industrial action to a complicated system of "protected" action, where workers must vote in favour of industrial action, which can only be carried out during a limited bargaining period. Any industrial action taken outside of these strict laws can lead to union organisers and workers copping massive fines. --- At the same time, there is clearly a need for industrial action. Australians work the longest hours of any OECD country. This work increasingly includes more and more unpaid overtime. The instances of deaths and major injuries on building sites has sky rocketed since the ABCC was introduced. The system of individualised work agreements and the simplification of Awards ...

(en) US, Anarchist WSA* - renewd Ideas & Actions - Interview with a CNTista By Deric Shannon

СР, 01/09/2010 - 11:33
Over the summer I had the pleasure of staying in Madrid with my brother. Most of my time was spent relaxing and recovering from work, but I did take some time to meet up with local comrades while I was there. ---- The second time I got together with the CNT folks there, they were doing roving pickets of Hotel Vincci. As a result of an unfair firing (Is there ever a âfairâ one?), they were exerting pressure on the hotel by paying a visit to its Madrid locations. My compa, Abbey, and I tagged along for three of the locations where we stood outside the hotel and fliered, informed patrons and prospective patrons about the hotelâs bad labor practices, stickered the outside of the hotels, and got the cops called on us once (they never showed). ---- The ConfederaciÃn Nacional del Trabajo (âNational Confederation of Labourâ) is a confederation of labor unions in Spain (there is a French ...

(en) US, Anarchist WSA* - renewd Ideas & Actions - 25th Anniversary of the Hormel Strike

ВТ, 31/08/2010 - 23:15
Some 25 years ago, the workers at the Austin, Minnesota plant of the Hormel Corp. embarked on a long and brave fight. A fight which was not only right but fought âfrom belowâ. This fight and the rank-and-file efforts to wage and control the struggle captivated the attention of all militant workers. ---- In the Workers Solidarity Allianceâs print version of ideas & action Steve Boyce, Jake Edwards and Tom Wetzel penned an excellent, article, âSlaughterhouse Fight: A Look at the Hormel Strikeâ In recognition of the 25th Anniversary of the struggle, we are re-publishing the article below. ---- The Hormel strike came at a time of continued defeats for the American working class. Starting in the late 1970âs with de-industrialization, the Chrysler bailout and the continuous string of concessionary bargaining (collective begging), the attacks on the working class went unabated. ...

ВТ, 31/08/2010 - 09:25
On September 24th, 2001, less than two weeks after the September 11th attacks, this brief statement (below) entitled “No War Against Nations, No Peace Between Classes,” announced the formation of the Boston Anarchists Against Militarism (BAAM): “In response to the impending military aggression of the United States, a number of class struggle anarchists have come together to form the Boston Anarchists Against Militarism (BAAM!) coalition. BAAM is opposed to nationalism, racism, and war hysteria, and is organizing against the current war efforts. For more information on how to get involved...” ---- In this first incarnation, BAAM was more of an open, ad hoc coalition of various anarchist groups and individuals than it was a specific organization. It was formed through the initiative of a few local collectives of the Northeastern Federation of Anarchist-Communists (which formed ...

These two bases provided us with theoretical and practical foundations over these past eight years; struggling to organize and organizing to struggle were the slogans used to gather together militants and guide our groups and organizations. ...

Council failing on affordable housing Time to squat ---- To buy an average-price house in Herefordshire you would have to be earning ÃÂ48,856 a year. ---- Those are the findings of housing charity Shelter, which brands Herefordshire Council as one of the worst providers of affordable housing in England. ---- At the current rate of availability it would take almost eight and half years to house the estimated 5,207 households on the waiting list for affordable housing in the county. ---- Shelter found that 1,113 new affordable homes would need to be built each year in Herefordshire to keep up with local need. By their own admission, council officials have said that only 531 new homes were built over the last four years. At an average of just 133 a year this is clearly not good enough! ...

(en) US, Boston Anti-Authoritarian Movement BAAM #36 - P. 6 - 7 Flash or Not to Flash (Mob) by Jeff Reinhardt

СБ, 28/08/2010 - 09:02
In the undercurrents of an already miserably atomized and closed-off society, small bursts of freedom and expression have become a phenomenon, even in the mainstream. “Flash Mobs” as they are called, are a developing form of self-expression that since 2003 have been surprising passers-by with a strange concoction of humor, messaging, technology, and good old fashioned violence—all while using public space in a way radically different than we are used to. ---- The term “flash mob” was invented by Bill Wasik, a senior editor at Harper’s Magazine. ---- He helped organize the first “flash mobs” in Manhattan in the spring of 2003. Manhattan has since been one of the epicenters of the burgeoning pastime. Most notably Union Square hosts a yearly pillow fight that started in 2008, where thousands descend, pillows in hand, to whack each other over the head in a cloud of goose ...

(en) US, Boston Anti-Authoritarian Movement BAAM #36 - P. 5 - The G20 and Kkkanada

ПТ, 27/08/2010 - 19:13
On June 24th-June 27th the G20 summit was held in Toronto, Ontario. As planned, an outpouring of protest filled the city in an attempt to stop the economic policies of the world’s elite powers. I was fortunate enough to cross the border and witness the demonstrations, when most activists from the US were denied entry into Canada for obvious reason. ---- What I saw throughout the demonstrations was a great amount of solidarity between people from various struggles and a fairlysuccessful militant march that brought positive and negative perspectives to the table. ---- In the days leading up to Saturday, I saw an escalation of militancy against the G20, but also an escalation of police presence. Downtown Toronto became a pretty much like prison. A fence that was eight or nine feet tall with concrete barriers was erected through out downtown. It was literally ...
