Radical Exchange / Solidarity with Argentina
Call for Translators
We hope that through workshops and translations about social movements in
Argentina we can begin to discuss new ways to organize in our own
communities; to talk about autonomy, popular education and direct democracyby way of the example of social movements in Argentina.
In our translations we focus on materials written by the movements
themselves, concentrating on methods of organization and strategic
principals. Our focus thus far has been the MTD (unemployed workers
(movement) Anibel Veron. However, we are hoping to expand our work to
include many other important causes in Argentina such as occupied and
collectively run factories, neighbourhood assemblies and indigenous and
campasino movements.

Call For Papers: The Postanarchism Reader
"The Postanarchism Reader: Writings at the
Intersection of Anarchism and Poststructuralism"
Edited by Jason Adams
Deadline for Paper Proposals: November 2003
This callout is for a book proposal that I am putting
together for a publisher in NYC on the intersections
between poststructuralism and anarchism; the proposal
is for it to be a sort of anthology of writings by
various radical theorists who have looked at this
issue either directly in terms of articulating or
critiquing the idea of a "poststructuralist anarchism"
(Todd May, Saul Newman, Lewis Call, etc.) or by using
both poststructuralist and anarchist theorists
together in the same essay in a way that might be
thought of as a "postructuralist anarchist critique"
of some aspect of politics, history, society or
culture.
Alternative Media ANRed Argentina writes:
The Redaccion news agency (ANRed) distributes information about workers',
student's and social conflicts since 1995. It contributes to the comunication and strengthen of popular and poorest sectors through different ways of work:
1- Graphic publications as a newspaper and zonal minor productions. We also
have a site on the internet: ANRed
2- The community comunication net has the purpose of distributing press
materials of unemployed workers, neighbourhood groups ("asambleas barriales"),
trade unions, productions of social organizations in conflict, and alternative newspapers. 220 receptors receive the envelopes with diverse publications.
3- The sending of press messages to national media when strikes, conflicts,
and social movements' fights and claims. We work with unemployed workers
movements as MTD Anibal Veron and others. We also articulate our work with
other alternative media as argentina indymedia
We are interested in contacting local and foreign people into helping with this
project.

IRAQ WAR PROFITEERS IN THE SPOTLIGHT, OTHERS OFF THE RADAR
The U.S. war on Iraq quickly shifted from an air war, to a ground war, and
now to the occupation. In occupied Iraq, some U.S. groups that organized
against the war are now organizing to monitor the corporations being awarded contracts to rebuild that country. At the same time back in the U.S. other lucrative defense contracts are underreported. On June 30, the Aerospace Testing Alliance, a partnership among Jacobs Sverdrup, General Physics Corp., and Computer Science Corp., was awarded a $2.9 billion contract for work at Arnold Air Force Base in Tennessee.

The Brian MacKenzie Infoshop had its long anticipated opening on May
5th after four years of planning and preparation. The group of
activists took on the project to provide as a center for radical
thought and in the D.C. area. The non-profit store sells a wide
variety of books and zines on politics, government, feminism, world
issues, anarchy, activism and other subjects that are hard to shop
for in other bookstores. They also have a growing selection of punk,
indie and folk CDs and vinyls.
The space keeps an up-to-date activism events bulletin board, provides
space for meetings and events, distributes info on local groups and
generally makes it easy to be plugged into the activist community. The
cozy basement room provides as a haven for meeting other independent
thinkers and sharing radical ideas in a friendly environment. The
Infoshop is located at 9th and P Sts. in the basement of the Arthur
Flemming Center at 1426 9th St. NW.
