Occupied London 5

The final issue of Occupied London, an anarchist journal of theory and action. Put out by the minds behind From the Greek Streets, the premiere source of English-language updates and analysis related to the crisis in Greece. 108 pages of art and action and analysis.



From the editorial:



This is the last issue of Occupied London, a journal that started in the political freeze-frame that was London in the mid 00s. In December 2008, at the continent's other end, the frames started moving again; as they sped up, new movements, revolts, ripples of transformation appeared. We changed our shape to respond to this unfolding condition. For a few years, we focused on regular blog updates from the streets in Greece; then, taking a few steps back and a deep breath, we put a book together [this one!], trying to understand the state of the antagonist movement in Greece with our comrades.



And now? The frames have reached a dazzling speed; the consensus of democracy's good ol' times has broken and sheds its glass all over the continent, and beyond: the old world is in crisis, and along with it is its previously imposed global consensus on what counts as "progress", "democracy" or "development". Are these the creaks and sighs of a new global order settling, are they the early days of global economic fascism, or, could they be the cracks and moaning of its collapse?
