PACIFISM AND ANARCHISM

Tue, 08/01/2013 - 19:00
Town/City: 
LONDON

The London Pacifism and Nonviolence Discussion Group will continue to grapple
with the subject of PACIFISM AND ANARCHISM at its January meeting.

Anarchism has negative connotations for some pacifists, and pacifism is
similarly seen as too negative a worldview by some anarchists - but isn't
there really a great overlap of perspectives and of modes of action?

Come and join this discussion - whatever your perspective!

The group meets at the same time and place on the second Tuesday every month;
meetings are open to anyone interested in pacifism and nonviolence.
