BOOK LAUNCH 'CONTEMPORARY ANARCHIST STUDIES':

Coming up at the end of the month, Sept. 29, at the Mondragon Winnipeg's Infoshop...book launch of 'Contemporary Anarchist Studies' with editor Randall Amster. Here's the promo.>>>

Contemporary Anarchist Studies Book Launch

Time September 29 · 7:30pm - 9:30pm

---------------------
Location Mondragon Bookstore & Coffee House
91 Albert St
Winnipeg, MB
--------------------
Created By Viva Mondragon
-------------------
More Info Join us for an evening with author & activist Randall Amster.
The discussion will explore the implications for nonviolent change presented in the recent volume of collected essays, Contemporary Anarchist Studies, which “seeks to bridge the gap between anarchy in the streets and anarchism in the academy.” Focusing on theory, pedagogy, methodologies, praxis, and the future, this interdisciplinary work highlights connections between anarchism and other perspectives such as feminism, queer theory, critical race theory, peace studies, post-modernism and post-structuralism, animal liberation, and environmental justice. The book brings together a wide variety of anarchist voices while stressing anarchism’s tradition of innovation and dissent. This interactive session will discuss the process, substance, and utility of the book – the first academic anthology of anarchism meant for a wide readership to be released in decades – and will apply shared understandings of anarchism to current issues ranging from homelessness and climate change to globalization and social movements.

Oh, oh, Molly feels one of her petty gripes (or puzzlements) coming on. I guess that it is fair game to also have a website. I checked. It is still active. A lot of groups, people, businesses, etc. do this to increase their exposure. But the new group made me look to the old Mondragon facebook page to see if it was time to give it a decent burial from the Links section and move it to 'Zombies'. To my amazement it is still active as well. For the life of me I can't see the point of this. No doubt there are individuals in this world who have more websites, blogs, Facebook and Myspace sites than I have fingers and toes. Personally I doubt that such a thing will get them even 15 nanoseconds of fame. Can somebody please enlighten me as to the purpose of having two Facebook groups running in tandem.
