A-Infos (en) Slovakia, SAF: The bird rose from the ashes again nová (new A-contra is coming out for the 5th Anarchist Book Festival) [machine translation]

We have no idea whether the fantasies of police officers in choosing the name of Operation Phoenix were to have a broader scope, but after 
another year and a half since the last issue, it can be said that this police curse included our publishing period. We issue a number, burn 
to ashes, and rise again. However, this is not such a bad option, because if we strictly described the ancient legend, we would be published 
once every five hundred years. ---- The September 2015 issue largely focused on ongoing police repression and subsequent reactions. After a 
year and a half, it is much clearer in many ways, but still not in many ways. The trial is still ongoing, or after it became clear that one 
of the jurors is a former ÚOOZ police officer and a publicly publishing racist, who is also clear about the case and the sentence in 
advance, has been canceled and will run again. Due to these facts, we will postpone further necessary reflections until later and focus our 
attention on everyday life.

During the editorial meetings, the topic of "everyday anarchism" crystallized for us. One friend was joking if she could draw it... Well, 
she probably can't, but maybe she can write it. So such a thread connects this number. In it you will find the "confession" of an ac working 
at a corporate company as well as the practical and tested knowledge of a vegan behind the prison walls. Also an interview with one of our 
former editors, who is now a municipal representative, the experience of reaching a consensus and the historical parallel between "gypsies" 
and technonomists.

One of the other interviews describes the meritorious activity of the anarchist associations Zádruha - a historical association that 
systematically maps the history of the Czech anarchist movement in the period 1880¬-1926. The third conversation of the issue goes more to 
the future, perhaps directly to paradise and the kingdom of God. An interview with a young anarcho-Christian community may surprise you in 
many ways and not only you. We believe that our clients will also be surprised in repressive positions when they find out that spiritual 
radicality is flourishing here without spectacular fires, but with fire in their hearts.

Of course, something has happened in the world and a lot is happening, we must admit that in our current condition we do not manage to 
process it meaningfully, but the prospect of further editions is tempting. Of course, it also depends on your support and reactions, 
cooperates, spread, because without your participation and response, we will not move on. You can write to anna.kontra (zav) safe-mail.net ,
