From: "Shawn Ewald" <shawn-AT-wilshire.net> Date: Mon, 25 Jun 2001 12:04:04 -0400 Subject: Anarchism in Action: Methods, Tactics, Skills, and Ideas [Feel free to forward to other lists that would find this information useful] I have completed the final draft of the first edition of Anarchism In Action: Methods, Tactics, Skills, and Ideas. A book of practical organizing and activist information for anarchists and other radical anti- authoritarian activists. http://www.radio4all.org/aia/ The final edition has many corrections and new additions and the web version has been slightly organized for more convenient browsing. I have also created a PDF of the book. As always, I encourage you to copy, mirror, print out, but above all use this information. What follows is the book's new table of contents: Introduction Forms of Decisionmaking and Organization Direct Democracy Consensus Affinity Groups Collectives Federations and Networks Communication: Getting the word out Postering, Tabling, and Propaganda Distribution Wheatpasting Made Fun and Simple Tabling Tips on Giving Speeches and Presentations Traditional Alternative media How To Start An Alternative Campus Newspaper Doing Your Own Zine Microradio The Internet and Indymedia Using Mailing Lists for Outreach and Organizing Independent Media Webcasting Mainstream Press Relations How to Write Effective Press Releases Excerpts from "An activist guide to exploiting the Media" Doing Radio Interviews Organizing and Action Types of Organizing Community Organizing Labor Organizing Building Coalitions Types of Actions Protests/Public Order Situations Strikes and Labor Actions Le Tute Bianche, W.O.M.B.L.E.S., Black Blocs, and Police Confrontation What is...?
