Description: 

Sydney Anarchist Summer School will be an educational conference and convergence happening on the 18th-20th February 2011, at Jura Books, Black Rose Books and other community venues in Sydney (to be confirmed). Anyone is welcome to come and learn and be part of the discussion.

The summer school is being organised by a collective of people with backgrounds in radical reading groups and student environmental groups, and various anarchist collectives in Sydney.

There will be three days of workshop and forums on different aspects of anarchist theory and practice. Some current topics that are proposed are: classical and modern anarchist theory, autonomous Marxism, the overlap and differences between anarchism and socialism, mutual aid, anarchist influence and involvement in social movements, and different streams of anarchist thought and action.

The organising collective would like to hear your ideas on what you would like to see happen at the convergence, what topics you would be keen to learn about, and to invite you to submit workshops that you can run. You can submit your ideas and workshop plans by emailing anarchistsummerschool [at]gmail.com or by submitting a short form at

Interested folks are also invited to join the organising collective. The collective meets weekly to organise things like venue, program content and workshops, and food.

On the final day of Summer School, anarchist groups and collectives are invited to an assembly on the anarchist movement in Australia, where groups can exchange ideas and plan new ways of working together in the future.

And it's all FREE!

See you in February!
