Tim Pendry, former organiser of the Grassroots Alliance within the Labour Party and now independent, argues that the current crisis offers a unique opportunity for anarchist ideas to enter the mainstream as a much wider libertarian challenge to a State proven to be greedy and incompetent.
Unfortunately, many 'anarchists' are still navel-gazers with a view of the human condition that is out-dated. With centralised state socialism becoming discredited even in its reform model, anarchism could lose the moment. Tim challenges anarchists to create new political strategies alongside their direct action successes.

DEEP EQUALITY - Anarchism in everyday life
Jocelyn Chaplin
This talk, based on Jocelyn's new book Deep Equality(O-books.net), explores the links between hierarchical structures of society and thinking and psychological problems. She describes an alternative structure/paradigm based on the theory of equalizing rhythms. Jocelyn shows how the new paradigm can be danced with in daily life, and on street protests, as well as at carnivals and raves.
Jocelyn Chaplin is a psychotherapist, a pagan, feminist, anarchist and a member of the Dionysian Underground. Her other books include 'Love in an Age of Uncertainty'. (Aquarian Press).
==================
ROMM EB1 1pm-2pm
Two Faces of Anarchy?
What motivates your commitment to anarchism? Are we seekers of liberty with noble aims as many idealists like to view themselves, or reactionary victims of society eaten up with resentment and hate as our critics have sometimes charged. Steve Ash argues that an element of both may be true with either extreme being dangerous.
