Anarchy is Freedom!
|
|
|
|
The anarcho-syndicalists seek to realize an autonomous society -
|
|
a society without authorities. Autonomy in all ways of life is
|
|
the basic idea of the anarcho-syndicalism.
|
|
|
|
Thus they refuse the organization of their interests by centralistically
|
|
structured institutions. Such institutions always use hierarchy and the
|
|
imbalanced concentration of power. Nor shall or could anyone realize
|
|
their interests through representatives, such as are maintained in
|
|
reformist unions, political parties, or religious formations based
|
|
upon congregations, dioceses or synods.
|
|
|
|
The directly and indirectly on payment-dependant individuals aim at the
|
|
ability to organize themselves in independant corporation-, subject related
|
|
and regional groups. As they are funded nationwide (Germany) by the FAU
|
|
(Freie ArbeiterInnen Union) and worldwide by the IAA.
|
|
|
|
In order to achieve their aims, they use direct actions: boycotts,
|
|
strikes, general protests, blockades, etc. They reject any parliamentary
|
|
work. In this kind of actions they see the possibility to contend
|
|
individualistic movements and the lack of perspectives.
|
|
|
|
The power of the capitalistic system resides in private and
|
|
governmental authority over production capabilites, and the daily
|
|
underpayment of the working class. Because of that, the economic area
|
|
is the primary focus of the struggle against capitalism.
|
|
|
|
Revolutionary work in the corporations hits capitalism not only in its
|
|
various appearances but also at its root. This work can only succeeed
|
|
when it is being done simultaneously in all parts of society,
|
|
because all efforts are dependant upon each other.
|
|
|
|
We welcome all people who are ready to cooperate with us in this struggle.
