GETTING IT WRONG
First, the apologies !_ Our last issue proved so popular that it
sold-out before we could finish sending off the bundles 10
[comrades taking extra copies for street selling. Sorry if you
didn't get yours. . we'll try to do better this time. Meanwhile,
‘ye are upping our print run to meet the increased demand.
Grovelling excuses, also, to those readers awaiting BLACK.
| PAPERS Nol — STEFANO DELLE CHIAIE, advertised in
|.A36 for October publication. Unforseen production delays
have meant that the book will not now be out before the New
Year. But readers who have already sent in their orders will be
| the first to recieve their copies, hot off the press.
| GETTING IT RIGHT
This issue of ANARCHY reflects ous continuing evolution as a
magazine since the change-over in Editorial Collectives noted
jn A3S, We are still finding our feet and trying out different
formulas to arrive at a good balance of material. From now on,
'News” will not appear as a seperate section of the magazine,
Common sense dictates that, whilst coming out (in theory) as
a ‘Quarterly, it is more efficient for us to tackle interesting
news items in greater depth as Features, and to Teave the job of
straight reporting to the (fortnightly) BLACK FLAG NEWS
BULLETIN. News material recieved by us will now, therefore,
bbe passed on to BLACK FLAG on 2 regular basis.
GETTING IT GOING
ANARCHY intends to be taken seriously — by our friends, as
well as Our enemies — and to show that the often vaunted
‘propaganda by deed? actually means setting an example of
how Anarchists can do something worthwhile, and doing it
properly, We believe it is time ANARCHY made people sit up
and take notice :
‘A small group of imaginative, determined, individuals who are
highly motivated can invariably achieve ‘an influence far in
excess of their numbers. But to reach our stated aim of a)
revolutionary struggle with the most Libertarian character
possible”, we also have to see ourselves in a wider perspective.
Being a ‘Vanguard’ is not our style. We seek only to act as
catalyst within the class struggle wing of the snarchist move-
ment. Ultimately, the pace of events will require such activist
elements as exist to come together as a more organised
Revolutionary Fraction (though not necessarily one organis-
ation), rooted in the anarchist movement but not restricted to
it, It is our hope to take ANARCHY beyond the narrow
confines of the anarchist ghetto and reach 4 wider audience.
The need exists already for a more outward looking anarchist
presence in Britain; only the wherewithal is still elusive.
Sueessful activity procesds from the specific to the gener,
and not the other way about. Ie is self-defeating to speak in
tenns of ‘the movement’ (sil les ‘the masses! |) without
paying due regard to the nuts and bolts of activity. We believe
ho one group or organisation has a monopoly on the trth|
when it comes to advancing the cause of revolution. Useless
rguments, dressed-up as ‘pointsof principal’ should not be
allowed to get in the way of mutual understanding and united
action. We appeal to all serious comrades to overcome this
Poisonous tussle for the first place in the queue for Utopia,
znd (o put their energies instead into practical ativity aimed
at hottingup the class war, and (this time) making sue we win,
