New Labour’s New Deal = Dirty Deal
23 March 2009Posted by AFed
We’re used to changes in welfare benefits happening so slowly and quietly you’d hardly notice them. So unless you’re getting benefit yourself, you might be forgiven for not even knowing that unemployment benefit and income support were put together as the Job Seekers Allowance in October 1996. Then there was Project Work, a Conservative experiment being tried out in 30 towns from last April onwards, continuing under the Labour government up to the present day.

Religion and Materialism

Introduction to the religion discussion at ACF conference, Glasgow, August 1996.
Note – this intro quotes freely from Bakunin’s God and the State in places, which is why the language is sometimes a bit old-fashioned. BAKUNIN, GOD AND THE STATE
One of the linchpins of traditional anarchist thought is an opposition to religion, which finds its basis in materialism. By this we mean that our material existence as humans is solely due to our development from animals.
Untying the knot: The Tyranny of Structurelessness and The Tyranny of Tyranny
20 March 2009Posted by AFed
With an introduction by the AF, we reproduce two important texts on libertarian organisation from the 1970’s & 80’s, The Tyranny of Structurelessness by Jo Freeman and a reply to it The Tyranny of Tyranny by Cathy Levine. The two texts were previously published together as Untying the Knot: Feminism, Anarchism and Organisation (Rebel Press, 1984) and we have kept this title. Those who may tend more towards anti-organisational currents in anarchism but also those who may unwittingly verge towards centralised structures in a desire to become more organised, will find much to think about in these two texts.
