anniversary

From Anarchistická federace - October 16, 2025

This year marks the 30th anniversary of the founding of our anarchist federation. Naturally, we didn’t hesitate to make this milestone the central theme of the autumn issue of the anarchist revue Existence. Such an anniversary offers a valuable opportunity not only for reflection and reminiscence, but also for drawing important lessons.

From The Bristol Cable

As the Easton-based social centre reaches its thirtieth birthday, we explore the history of the much-loved volunteer-run community space, which began life as a squat back in the mid-1990s

As the winter of 1995 drew in, a group of Bristol’s anarchist squatters started to talk about where to go next. One comrade heard that a building at 14 Robertson Road, which had previously housed the Bristol One Parent project, had been empty for over six months.

The 40th anniversary of the International Anarchist Meeting held in Venice in 1984 is approaching (for those who were not there, here is the link that gives an account of the many aspects of that event: https://centrostudilibertari.it/ven84-homepage ).

Given the importance that meeting had not only for our history but also for that of the international anarchist movement, which participated en masse in that meeting coming from thirty different countries, we could not help but invent something worthy of the moment!

From ABC-Belarus

This year, the ABC-Belarus celebrates its 15th anniversary. Struggle, repression and migration have become a reality for many of us. In these difficult times we want to meet our comrades who continue to support our work and prisoners despite their own difficulties.

The conference will be held at Paul-Valéry Montpellier 3 University (France) in 2027 (date to be fixed). A deadline will be set in 2026 for the receipt of intervention proposals. Interested people can already come forward to announce their wish to participate in the conference by sending the broad outlines of their proposed intervention.

Deadline: May 15, 2026

Sept. 16 will mark 100 years since the brutal killing of Noe Ito, a Japanese anarchist, author and social critic of the Meiji and Taisho eras, who was targeted and killed in the massacres that followed the Great Kanto Earthquake.

September 10, 1898: the anarchist Luigi Lucheni murders the Austro-Hungarian empress "Sissi" with a file. He does not have enough money for a dagger.

What followed was a violent wave of state attacks against anarchism and, with the Anti-Anarchist Conference in Rome, one of the first attempts to network police repression internationally.

September 9, 2023: an anarchist demonstration through Bad Ischl, a center of monarchy kitsch, commemorates the event with street theater and music.

On March 3, 1953 a 19-year-old anarchist did the unthinkable and blew up the large monument of Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin that stood in the central Sofia Freedom Park – now Boris' Garden – and survived. He lives to this day, aged 90.

It's been 20 years since the murder of Carlo Giuliani in Genoa. Those days that costed first of all a life, but also a lot of blood for all the others who joined the demonstrations, filled the streets, or the Diaz school. We don't want to just remember the sacrifice of our health or the fear, the traumas, and our rage and disillusionment. Or the year long trials and a total of 110 years in prison imposed against a movement. More important is still keeping on shouting that a different world is possible: a responsible, ecological, fair one.
