We've evolved! (enrager.net becomes libcom.org)
libcom.org | 01.05.2005 12:13
On the 1st of May 2005 enrager.net became libcom.org - a libertarian community and organising resource for Britain. After a year and a half, a lot of changes and massive increase in traffic we decided it was time for a change. Look below for more info and don't forget to update you're bookmarks and tell all your friends!
- Who?
The libcom group is a small collective of libertarian communists based in and around London, we maintain libcom.org, and as individuals are involved with a number of other groups and activity.
- Our Aims
We intend our site to be a resource for all people who wish to fight to improve their lives, their communities and their working conditions. We want to discuss, learn from successes and failures of the past and develop strategies to increase the power we, as ordinary people, have over our own lives.
Libcom focuses on working class organisation and education from below for the emancipation of humanity from all systems of economic and political authority. This is libertarian communism, a society where production is based on the concept "from each according to ability, to each according to need" and where humans organise themselves from the bottom up through the principles of face-to-face direct democracy, mandated delegation and federalism.
We identify with the wider historical context of class struggle, that is with those self-organised movements of workers and communities which have sprung up in various times and places, whether consciously libertarian communist or not. We are also influenced by the specific theoretical and practical traditions of anarchist-communism, social ecology/communalism, anarcho-syndicalism, the situationists, autonomist-marxism, council communism, and writers including Marx, Kropotkin, Cleaver, Bookchin and Pannekoek. However, we recognise the limitations of applying these ideas and organisational forms to contemporary British society, and emphasise understanding and transforming the social relationships we experience in our everyday lives, whilst learning from the mistakes and successes of previous revolutionaries and revolutions.
