English translation of "Anarquismo Social e Organização", by the Anarchist Federation of Rio de Janeiro (Federação Anarquista do Rio de Janeiro – FARJ)
The first Congress of the FARJ was held with the principal objective of deepening our reflections on the question of organisation and formalising them into a programme. This debate has been happening within our organisation since 2003. We have produced theoretical materials, established our thinking, learned from the successes and mistakes of our political practice it was becoming increasingly necessary to further the debate and to formalise it, spreading this knowledge both internally and externally. The document “Social Anarchism and Organisation” formalises our positions after all these reflections. More than a purely theoretical document, it reflects the conclusions realised after five years of practical application of anarchism in the social struggles of our people. To read it, click the links in the “Summary” below. The document is divided into 16 parts. It has already been published in Portuguese in a book co-published between Faísca and the FARJ.
The first Congress of the Anarchist Federation of Rio de Janeiro pays tribute to its comrades:
Juan Perez Bouzas (1899-1958)
Featured anarchist cobbler of Galician origin that,
with unusual talent and determination, highlighted the necessity
of the deepening of the struggle. In 2008 we remember the
fiftieth anniversary of his death (05/09/1958).
Ideal Peres (1925-1995)
That, with sensibility and ample vision of the political horizon,
guaranteed the maintenance of the social axis of anarchism
and the connection of generations of militants.
Plínio Augusto Coêlho (1956- )
Tireless in giving substance to our dreams,
connecting them to the long thread that binds us to those who preceded us
in the quiet or turbulent act of revolution.
"If you remained isolated, if each one of you were
obliged to act on their own, you would be powerless without a doubt; but
getting together and organising your forces – no matter how weak they are
at first – only for joint action, guided by common ideas and attitudes, and by
working together for a common goal, you will become invincible."
Mikhail Bakunin
