I don't want to change my lifestyle - I want to change my life

It seems clear to me that the women's movement in Boston hasn't really been doing much this year as compared to last year. I think that the reason behind this is that people have tried very hard not to think about what they were doing, and have therefore become encased in dogma. I also feel that people have settled for reforming their lives instead of changing them.

This article, from Black Flag #208 in mid-1995, was one of a series looking at the impact of the Criminal Justice Act, which aimed to criminalise the activities of hunt saboteurs, amongst others.

In our central reviews in French and Spanish we recently published an article entitled "Against the summits and anti-summits; bourgeois attempts to channel of the proletarian struggles on a world scale and the invariant struggle for the proletarian rupture" (1) in which we denounced the large meetings of the international capitalist organisations as well as the official protestations of the bourge

What is objective? The weather.
What is consciousness? Rain on your face.
What is subjective? "My hairstyle is a mess and my make-up is ruined."
Objective is what happens.
Consciousness is presence.
Subjective is complaint.
Objectivity is appropriation.
Consciousness is absorbency.
Subjectivity is defeat.
Object is ground.
Consciousness is mask.
Subject is projectile.

Some thoughts relating to the recent events in Prague

redtwister — Thu, 15 Dec 2005 03:18:18 +0000

1.The likely beneficiaries of the actions in Prague are the Ecology Movement, in its broadest sense, which means the careers of individuals and groups/parties who represent all sorts of ecological politics. (I have used the term "Ecology Movement" in order to highlight where this movement originates, which is also a pointer to where it will end up).

The Necessity and Impossibility of Anti-Activism

The Necessity and Impossibility of Anti-Activism

For my part, I do not believe there is 'one solution' to the social problems, but a thousand different and changing solutions in the same way as social existence is different and varied in time and space.

--Errico Malatesta, 1924

Revolution is the communising of society, but this process is more than just the sum of direct actions.

Since the occupation movement of May '68, we have seen a whole collection of small organisations which claim to follow Trotskyism, Maoism or anarchism, developing to the left of the Communist Party and the C.G.T [1].

Reply to Animal's Reply

libcom — Sun, 24 Jul 2005 14:46:37 +0000

As the reply-proper (below) to the Animal reply makes clear, the article 'Death of a Paper Tiger' was not written by Aufheben. 'Intakes' articles in Aufheben are 'guest' articles and so do not go through the normal editorial process (of editing, criticism etc.) but nevertheless are considered useful contributions.

This is a reply to "Intakes: Death of a Paper Tiger... Reflections on Class War" found on the Aufheben website on Feb. 21st 2000, but printed in 1997, Autumn no.6, in their magazine.

Kill or Chill - An analysis of the Opposition to the Criminal Justice Bill

libcom — Sun, 24 Jul 2005 14:25:57 +0000

Last year, the threat of the Criminal Justice Bill galvanised thousands of people to take various forms of action against the state. It also brought very different oppositional elements together in a common practical relationship, many for the first time. In this issue, we examine the possibilities of these struggles.
