October17-31 1992 Fortnight for the Anarchist Alternative

Dear friends,

The organisers of this year's Anarchist Bookfair and London Green- peace Fayre have called for the last two weeks of October this year to become a countrywide fortnight for the anarchist alternative. Civilisation is now at a social and ideological crossroads, with capitalism offering only more social control, exploitation and devas- tation, and with state communism totally discredited. Therefore we need to encourage the spread of genuine and coherent, positive alternative ideas for the future — libertarian and anarchist ideas. We wish to recognise the initiative, diversity and local priorities throughout the movement, whilst aiding the development of country- wide co-operation and solidarity. Hence we're calling for a wide range of local, regional and national events around that time. Due to delayed publicity, we're unable to produce a programme for this year's fortnight. However, ‘national’ events falling within that period (not necessarily organised as part of it) include:

Friday 16 October World Anti-McDonald's Day of protests at local branches.
