Why fascist libertarian campaign? And for what purpose? ---- The resurgence of acts
fascist or fascistic character led us to wonder about the need to provide an appropriate
response. Antifascist mobilizations followed demonstrations style "events for all" or "day
of rage". These mobilizations were first echoes the murder of Clement Meric June 5, 2013,
and more broadly to wild attacks by militant extreme right in Clermont-Ferrand, Lyon,
Montpellier, Toulouse etc.. In addition to the appearance of various antifascist
committees expanded in Lyon, Montpellier, Paris, Clermont-Ferrand, Perpignan ... he missed
a coordination measure the threat of the return of fascist violence on the ground, in the
street. Most organizations Libertarian Movement met on several occasions to provide a
collective response to threats and violence.
antifascist Libertarian Campaign ( CLAF ) is born as a result of this process and includes
Libertarian Alternative , the CNT and Coordination of Anarchist Groups . These
organizations have jointly decided to give answers to anti-state, anti-electioneering
character anticapitalist, and against all forms of discrimination and oppression: racism,
xenophobia, sexism, lesbophobia, homophobia, transphobia etc.. They decided to bring
together their thoughts, proposals and actions in the social field. G , the CNT and the
CGA produced propaganda material suitable for this campaign. And a "4 pages", a poster and
a set of stickers will decorate the different interventions, apparitions, panel
discussions, press conferences taking place between 7 and 13 April 2014 in most cities
where organizations the CLAF are present. Support libertarian organizations and / or local
public, non stakeholder campaign at its origin, will obviously welcome when / they decide
to join.
Our alternative to fascism and capitalism
The project proposes libertarian values and society completely opposite to those proposed
by the fascists. Egalitarian and libertarian project is based on the sharing of wealth and
economic and social equality in all areas of life. To move towards its realization, it is
necessary to strengthen existing struggles against antisocial policies, popularize,
support and initiate others in an anti-capitalist and anti-authoritarian perspective,
enabling the development of capacity for direct management of all of the population in all
areas. The eradication of fascism through the struggle against capitalism, the state is
the best of its managers, racism, patriarchy and all forms of oppression and domination.
Against the planned destruction of pensions, the announced reduction of rights of the
unemployed and precarious, the continued closure of public services or redundancy plans
endless, we must develop a radical social confrontation in companies, in neighborhoods and
with the youth. It is again the general strike and blockade of the economy that we can
defeat logical that we impose the dominant classes on behalf of the crisis and therefore
eradicate what is the breeding ground for fascism.
Faced with social problems and political elections offer only illusions of solution and
choice. It is not at the ballot box that will solve the economic crisis, inequalities and
the development of fascism resulting therefrom. We must reject the manipulation of
struggles for electoral purposes, which aims to establish the hegemony of institutional
parties. Necessary social progress, only real ramparts facing the development of fascism,
will be developing the struggles and organization in our businesses and neighborhoods. Our
goal is to build an alternative to capitalism and the state, based on the reorganization
and direct management of the economy and society by the workers, and that they have a job
or not.
Face the resurgence of fascist violence, it seems essential to develop the anti-fascist
popular self defense, collective and organized, without relying on the State demonstrated
complacency assault against fascist groups, regardless proclamations of intent he could do
so opportunistically.
Similarly, it is necessary to inform and raise awareness about the project and largely
racist and dictatorial practices of the extreme right. It is urgent to act, to mobilize
and to show solidarity during conducted and fascist violence, but it is also an urgent
need to prevent the development of their hate speech on the internet and in rural areas
and in small towns where the presence of anti-fascist organizations is less important.
Faced with the fascists, we must organize to put them out of harm's way. Face the
capitalists must unite to destroy their power and redistribute the wealth produced by the
workers ? se ? s. Facing the state, take our own affairs and build a libertarian and
egalitarian emancipatory social alternative.
