A-Infos interviews Arbetaren |
|
by Manuel Baptista |
02 Sep 2005
|
|
"We write about struggles and strikes in Sweden and abroad, but we are not making it in a propagandistic way. We are not adopting the style of communist oriented publications that just say "hip-hip-hurrah!". Of course, we are politically oriented in the sense we choose the subjects, but we are not giving a one-sided view. We try to write the truth about the different things. Of course, we write about actions being fought and solidarity demos with workers in Sweden or another countries. It supports and gives strength to these workers, seeing the paper talks about them." |

Call for a First of May of Class Struggle |
|
by CNT International |
21 Apr 2009
|
|
Today’s current crisis of Capitalism is placing workers in front of two well-defined options: either keep on being subjected to an authoritarian and inegalitarian economic and social system, or build up resistances in order to impose a fair deal of wealth, and have our rights and freedom respected. |

Interview of members of FAU local Berlin by Soren Jansen
"These new working conditions are a problem, but on the other hand they offer us an opportunity because people can no longer stand up for their rights via the traditional intermediary bodies like works committees, etc. The bosses don't need these intermediary bodies any more because they have the power anyway, and there's no radical workers' movement willing or able to stand up to them. The new working conditions are absolutely begging for direct action where you achieve your demands directly. They also call for more radical forms of organization-independent, decentralized, and thus more flexible, so to speak. Capitalism has become more flexible, and workers' organization has to become more flexible to stand up to it." |

Common Sense Reasons for Workers Self-management |
|
by Scott Rittenhouse |
02 Sep 2005
|
|
"Bosses are inefficient! - Many managers create unnecessary work or make you redo work "their way" just to justify their job or to make you think you have to go through them to get your work done. - Many managers create "empires" of things under their centralized control so you can't get resources or information you need to do your day-to-day work. Without a boss, access to these crucial resources would be decentralized and made available based on need." |

First of May 2008: Against the State and Capitalism, in Memory of the Haymarket Martyrs! |
|
by IWA Secretariat |
01 May 2008
|
|
Another Mayday has come, and with it the time to remember, in struggle, our comrades – five anarchist workers who died in a war between classes that we are still fighting today. They were murdered by the State because they didn't accept without resistance that they had bosses who lived off of their labour, because they didn't accept that the State and the Capital had power over their lives. |

Is Anarchism Right for Complex Societies? |
by Brian Oliver Sheppard
Previously published: Anarcho-Syndicalist Review #35/6 - Fall 2002 |
02 Sep 2005
|
|
"The charge has often been made that the anarchist economic model is ill suited for complex societies. The multi-faceted nature of advanced industrial economies; their scope of operation and breadth of distribution; the extensive refinement in their division of labor � all these and more are held up as examples of the labyrinth of problems that nothing as "simplistic" as anarchism could ever hope to address. Anarchism, according to many modern critics, could only hope to work in limited, small-scall economies. And even then, only possibly." |

Michael Bakunin: Ideas on Social Organization |
by James Guillaume
Previously published: Source: Bakunin on Anarchy, translated and edited by Sam Dolgoff |
29 Oct 2005
|
|
Bakunin was above all preoccupied with the theory and practice of revolution and wrote very little about how the everyday practical problems of social reconstruction would be handled immediately following a successful revolution. Nevertheless, these problems were intensively discussed in Bakunin’s circle and among the anti-authoritarian sections of the International. In “Ideas on Social Organization”, Guillaume discusses the transition from capitalism to anarchism – a synthesis of “Bakuninist” ideas on how this transition could be effected without the restoration of authoritarian institutions.” |
