Now you hear echoes of strike, re-emerging from certain sectors autointitulados as "alternative" new voices to the unity of action. We, staunch defenders of the unit as the best tool in the fight, we present our views to these claims time and heard before.
Action Unit
"Once they told me
The wrongs lose the sense of distance
and over time, all
see it on a plane."
We, unlike other organizations of labor and social landscape, not understand the unity of action as separate from the unity of theory or debate unit. We believe that the theory and practice should be linked closely, because all action must bring back a theory that justifies any theory must be checked for its implementation and any action, or any implementation should be reflected upon and discussed a posteriori, find their strengths and weaknesses, to avoid the same mistakes or to repeat the successes. For us, then, the unit of action is either a call to activism irrational without unique positioning, or a call to repeat old mistakes.
believe that unity action, understood as we have referred, as irrational activism, only comes to perpetuating the conflict situation, because by not sharing a theory not shared objectives, a conflict that is inherent in any system of hierarchy, and therefore, we as anarchists, we refuse to share unit with those who intend to perpetuate the status quo. This is achieved because without a constant struggle, but merely spontaneous or sporadic, is not got no change, therefore, that unity of action is equivalent to unit circumstantial, as it referred to partner García Rúa 1 .
We can not understand, thus, any unit who do not share a theory, a way of understanding the social struggle or a series of goals, both short-, medium or long term.
About institutionalizing alternative unionism as a
"The guillotine is always
North
south over"
reject all the so-called "alternative unionism" or the entire call "social left." The alternative unionism, both in its etymology as in practice, is the alternate, ie, changing or improving something. In this case, what changes or alternative stands for the union and thereby improving the system of representation. If you enter a criticism or a color in a system, this system is perfected, but not destroyed.
In this respect, the theoretical physics of string theory enunciated succeeds in full, as the union representative is not a single point or atom, but it is a string that takes place in several dimensions: the union majority, the second largest trade union, the alternative unionism, syndicalism nationalist nationalist trade unionism, syndicalism corporate ... So each of them moves the very essence delegation to each of the social fields dimensions should be developed (the sector "socialist" sector "communist" sector "anarchist" sector "nationalist" sector "nationalist" sector "Christian" sector "classless" .. .) sectors getting disgruntled one travels to another dimension without removing its representative nature.
The "alternative union" representative trade union improves but does not eliminate, that is why it tends to perpetuate it, making it stronger external attack or even to introduce into its bosom those external attacks within the trade union as representing all addresses are valid, what is no longer valid is all kinds of practices. Those are the practices that tend to destroy such as the conscious and continuous.
In a system of delegation, any type of horizontal tends to get lost, this loss of horizontal leads, of course, a hierarchy and a delete function to the lower or bases, the elimination of functions in the basis leads to a stupor, to demobilization, delegation, representation. The mobilization of these bases will only be possible when so hierarchies opinion because the bases can not decide on the domes as they are demobilized or no capacity to decide, not for nothing are, in this case, nonfunctional, and therefore, the mobilization of these bases in these hierarchies not only principle but also in order, as this is the hierarchy that sets the reasons for the movement and its goals. We found then that the mobilization of union representation is unrelated to the bases, in this case, the working class. Something that is embodied in the recent case of the last general strike, which was not any assembly job that is positioned on the appropriateness of calling or not even told not to groups or unions of the "periphery", ie the lower ranks, provincial or local.
nor love, nor can we
"We're all that and more,
all you want, without worrying
least."
We then see that it is not simply a theoretical or ideological matter, it is a question of implementation of decision-making mechanisms. Thus, while some are limited to deciding from offices and armchairs why, when, how and why move, others need a horizontal process, since we have not received any mandate from anyone to decide for him or anyone we have given ours . No process is "slow" but horizontal and adapted to social reality. It is a failure to call the strike who do not want it, and this is not like cooking or sex of that "test and we see", but when it calls a strike must be made in full belief that going to help anything, that will be effective. And the effectiveness of strikes becomes, essentially, among other important factors, follow-up.
certainly can sound outdated or unrealistic to refer to indefinite strikes as the exclusive method of effective action, but it is equally true that it is unrealistic to pretend that a strike be of some when the two people summoned on behalf of several million workers , unemployed, students and retirees. For us it is unrealistic to talk about how they have to do things because they say as they do not mean we believe you can do now. To indefinite strikes or get strong horizontal Organizations need a great deal of evidence that we are not left out, although there are some you can. Now up to us to follow him play, because it is not ours.

Finally Instead, we can not do denouncing the apparent hypocrisy of working political gesture and the realization of the authoritarian spirit which means that organizations now tend separatists alleged ties to the unit, unmasked the false unity.
hypocrisy because it is false to speak of unity to someone you have separated voluntarily. Political because it is a gesture of electioneering to proclaim unity in the knowledge that this, at best, is circumstantial, because it is authoritative reference to imposing a positioning unit that once, when that unit was, were minority.
In short, we denounce the attempt to call to strike autointitulado Organizations "alternative unionism" referenced at the moment, split by sector and re-splitting of anarcho-syndicalism, is but a subtle gesture and electoral maneuvering. Well, do not use the strike as a tool of struggle but as a means of propaganda, transmitting a distorted picture of reality. Anarchist Youth
