Anarchism06: 21st Century ideas and Action.

The Occupied Social Centre, 21 Russel Square, London 29th-30th April


Anarchism06 is a 2 day conference celebrating the ideas of anarchism. The aim is to
encourage debate and discussion around the ideas of anarchism and how those ideas can
be, and are applied in practical everyday situations.

Well known speakers from 'the anarchist movement', past, present & future (!) open the
conference celebrating anarchism as a positive political force "a way of getting the various
strands and political movements together, feeding off each other and hopefully learning
from each other, building trust and confidence in our abilities to connect and develop
strategies together, as well as fostering solidarity and a sense of collective purpose in what
we do".

discussions based on current issues along the following themes:-

- workplace struggles

- community struggles

- social struggles

- international struggles

(including: autonomous workers struggles with Gate Gourmet, Laing O'Rourke workers &
tube cleaners; the current uprisings in France from those who have been involved; as well
as the recent Broadway Market occupation in Hackney against gentrification; plus a
discussion on why today there are so few genuine working class anarchists).

There are still available places if people, or their groups, wish to contribute discussion topics
(email anarchism2006-at-hushmail.com). Should ideally fall within the 4 themes with the
emphasis of how anarchism does, or should, positively contribute to these struggles.
