  1.8 Swedish Anarchist Federation founded
 -----------------------------------------

Approx. 50 anarchists from all over Sweden gathered for the first national  
meeting of Swedish Anarchist Federation (SAF) on September 22-23. The idea  
behind this federation is to unite the anarchist forces in Sweden. SAF  
will organise existing groups as well as individuals and everyone who  
wants to start a new SAF local is very welcome. SAF has also got a mailing  
list in which you can participate.

During the first national meeting, a federation platform was passed:

"We in SAF are anarchists. Therefore we work for a libertarian socialist  
society in which all persons are equal. A society which is ecological and  
in which everyone will participate in decisions they are concerned with.  
We believe that neither capitalism nor any form of parliamentarism can  
realize this. We are against any forms of oppression and discrimination  
and we fight the social and economic structure who form the present  
society."

The federation will organize annual national meetings, but since there is  
much to discuss during the start phase, the next meeting will take place  
sooner than in one year.
