Welcome to libcom.org's archive for the 2006 International Workers Association (IWA) congress, updated as the congress runs from the 8th-10th December.
Based on an interview with comrades from anarcho-syndicalist FAU (Germany, Approx 300 members), this is a round up of the situiation in Germany, and their recent activity.
Having just arrived, things are off to a nice start - lots of really cool comrades, a total of 14 groups are represented. I'd estimate we'll get to talk to about half of them - obviously who we can interview will depend on which groups are represented by English speakers!
Bakunin makes an early and powerful critique of the statist, reformist, class-collaborationist and counter-revolutionary tendencies of emerging social democracy.
