ANARCHY IN THE UK!
Uncle Joe | 27.01.2006 18:03 | Analysis | Workers' Movements
Those who are new to far-left politics are often bewildered by the array of different Marxist, Trotskyist, Communist and Socialist parties. I know that I was!
However, it is interesting to note that anarchists also organise themselves into membership organisations, which some people think is slightly contradictory. However, anarchists argue that their organisations are organised non-hierarchically as compared to other political groups.
Furthermore, there are various political strands within anarchism which could probably be analysed as sitting relatively further left or right on the political spectrum of ultra-leftism. The main groups I know of in the UK representing the main trends of anarchism are (in alphabetical order):
Anarchist Federation -

Class War - http://www.londonclasswar.org/news.htm
Solidarity Federation - http://www.solfed.org.uk/
I have not noticed any posts from these groups on Indymedia in the last few months, so I would be interested to know what their relationship with IM is, and are there any members of these groups who are moderators and technicians on IM.
