For more than a year now, Greece has been in a near-constant state of social turmoil. Shortly after the revolt of 2008 the Greek State initiated strategies of counter-insurgency, some strategies that in the past two months, have intensified to the extreme. What is happening in the country right now? Why do the Greek state's strategies remind us so much of what has become a taken-for-granted social reality here in the U.K.?

Join us for an evening of discussion with comrades from Flesh Machine, an anarchist journal from Athens, and Occupied London, an anarchist journal from the Big Smoke.

Flesh Machine co-wrote an extended article on the Greek state's strategy of counterinsurgency:
