Seria "Teorie oporu"

Siłą narzucony ideologiczny monopol, propagowany poprzez szkoły, partie polityczne, sądownictwo, religię, serwisy informacyjne, tradycyjną rodzinę itd., staje się codzienną represją. Cykl „Teorie oporu” stanowi krytykę dominujących sposobów myślenia na temat społecznych realiów. Utrwalany podział społeczeństwa na mniejszość, która w swoim interesie nadaje sens światu oraz milczącą resztę, w rzeczywistości nie musi mieć miejsca.Istnieje międzynarodowy ruch, którego idee nie odzwierciedlają interesów prywatnych bądź publicznych instytucji, lecz potrzeby niedopuszczonych do głosu. Koncepcje autorów prezentowanych w tej serii, nawiązują do tego ruchu społecznego i są z nim ściśle związane. Ich prace są dowodem, że realna krytyka jest niezależna od instytucji dominacji, a jej odniesieniem pozostaje społeczny opór.

Other activity

LIBERATION IDEAS DEBATE SOCIETYHaving a place allows us to widen our activity. Thanks to it, we create fundamental elements of society's functioning, but it is different form the "official" world one. Our idea is to create a liberated thought and building a conscious society. This aim is executed through thousands of discussions in small and big groups, sometimes behind the façade of the Liberation Ideas Debate Society (LIDS). Within the confines of the LIDS, we invite guests with wider knowledge about particular issues. We also organize different workshops that teach both communal creating and concrete skills. But what is most important, at Rozbrat you can learn to think pragmatically.

Anarchist Black Cross

The ABC group of Poznan has been existing continuously since 1996. In this period, according to the acquired experience, forms and range of our activity were changing.Since several years our work has been focusing on practical support for activists of the anarchist movement and other groups cooperating with it. As a result of long-term observations we concluded that one of the biggest problems in the movement is lack of financial and legal backup. We were fed up with noticing different groups, one by one, being trapped in judicial scrambles after organizing even a small protest. Next activists, instead of doing their work, were forced to pay fines and if they didn't the state could blackmailed them (in Crakow, for example, well known local anarchist was arrested before every inconvenient for the state protest under the pretext of unpaid fines from the past). This is useful for the authorities to control the movement by endless court proceedings.

Food not bombs

Food not bombs is a world-wide initiative of handing out free vegetarian meals to the unprivileged. The first action was organized in 1980 by American activists protesting against nuclear armaments. Besides from the practical side of the initiative, it has a symbolic meaning. It pays attention to the problem of famine and malnutrition, that takes place everywhere in the world, even in the richest countries. The problem of famine is not caused by the lack of food in the world, but it is caused by the politics of rich countries, that prefer huge money expenditure spent on arming. Meanwhile, the improvement of the existence situation of the poorest is funded fewer and fewer. Statistically, the sum of money spent a week for arming is equal to the cost of feeding the starving people all over the world for a year. In the face of outbreak of the war in Iraq, our action's aim is to pay attention to the problem of poorness and the disability to satisfy all the living needs of part of our society and people all over the world.

Trojka Publishing House

Trojka Publishing House was started in 1994. It originated as an idea to share interesting books found in antique bookshops and old attics. It turned out later that more people were interested in such an idea and the brochures were sold and distributed more widely.

Workers' Initiative

Not without a reason, the birth of modern anarchist movement in Poland is said to be on 1st May 1983, when the group of the Movement for the Alternative Society took an active part in turbulent workers demonstrations. From the moment of appearing, after an almost 40-year break caused by the repression of communist regime, the anarchist was always connected with the workers' movement, on the one hand, and on the other and with counter-culture, that was heading to anti-militarism and ecology. At the turn of the 1980's and the 1990's, it caused an engagement of anarchists in movement of building trade unions, on the basis of objectors (in 1988 the regime, under pressure of protests, introduced the law of substitute national service). In that turbulent period of time (1989-1993) the anarchists were supporting and taking part in numerous workers' protests. However, those actions did not cause a creation of anarchosydicalist movement. After a several years' break - in the face of changed social and political reality - anarchist groups had to face the necessity of participating in the workers' movement which had weakened a lot in that period. In 1998 Anarchosydicalist Agreement was created, and three years later Workers' Initiative.
