Cork Anarchist Library - Tuesday September 9th 7-9pm- “how to organise better meetings”, at Rebel Reads Marina Commercial Park.
Cork Anarchist Library is a monthly gathering where ideas on revolution, liberation and real equality are allowed to circulate freely. CAL themed discussions are always healthy and friendly.
Septembers theme is around “how to organise better meetings”
Having effective meetings in our struggles, movements and prefigurative experiments is at the absolute kernel of creating what we want in the here and now.
The lessons of the history of anarchist participation, - in its many trialed methods of decision making and resulting need for agreed institutions over time, - shows a development of what can be seen as a social technology of participatory meetings.
Can this history developed through the generations of organisers from antiwar movements, civil rights, union, environmental, feminist, and many other movements, lend us to ensure effective meetings whilst also preventing the reemergence of structured or corporate division of labour, or of a sclerotic leadership class emerging?
How should decisions be made and voted upon? The ups and downs of majority or consensus options, or mixtures of both. Just a few questions and things that a topic like this could bring up 🙂
