Revolutionary Action is an anarchist organization which unites active
members of anarchist movement. Basis of RA’s ideas is anarcho-communism,
social anarchism and illegalism. The voice of our position is the
website and social networks, where we express position about different
events, cover anarchist movement activity, publish instructions and
recommendations. Materials published on the website can be created by
our collective or by sympathizer volunteers. Organization is an
editorial board of the website and it decides what material will be
published.
Revolutionary Action is an organization, because systematic, constant
activity with planning, analysis and improving efficiency is necessary
for movement development and approach of social revolution. It requires
material, human and informational resources. Organization allows to
distribute it such way, that organization members’ activity doesn’t stop
on one direction, but spread on different practice as wide as it’s
possible.
anarchist ideas in society.
Website functions as speaker for radical part of anarchist movement.
Organization members can take part in published materials and actions or
not. Although website has editorial board, almost all sent on our email
materials are published. We don’t publish only actions from political
opponents, actions without media value and those, which can discredit
anarchism by it’s format. RA’s editors reserve the right to make
corrections to spelling, punctuation and correct grammatical mistakes
and also to bring the text style into a more acceptable form, without
changing the main idea or the message of the sent material.
In addition to direct formatting and publication of news, the editorial
board carries out the distribution of press releases in the other mass
media, share actions and other materials with the help of social
networks.
Transfer of experience from generation to generation and personnel
training:development from recruits to trained revolutionaries, which are
able to solve a wide range of tasks the movement is facing with. Lack of
transfer of experience from generation to generation is one of the most
important reasons for the defeating of lots of promising movements in
the past. Partly the website is used for these purposes, the same work
is conducted also during direct interaction with the activists.
The main emphasis is on the transfer of practical experience: from
security issues to street actionism and radical practices. But it is
also important to spread the ideological principles (anarcho-communism,
illegalism) and strategic assessments (social revolution as the only way
to achieve anarchist society) of organization as broadly as possible.
The principle of concentric circles is used as the basis for practical
work with activists and participants in social movements.
organizers and experts in the anarchist movement, standing on a close
ideological platform.
Those few persons who participate in the movement, regardless of
political conjuncture and external conditions. Fanatics of the anarchism
ideals. Revolutionary Action supports the synthesis of agitation and
direct action. For the synthesis of work in the media field and work in
the underground field. Working in a media field only without the
possibility of radical struggle makes the movement weak and unable to
respond to the challenges of the time. At the same time, going into deep
underground will dampen the movement and make it’s impossible for the
influx of those people which are interested in the anarchist movement
and the realization of an anarchist society on practice.
Social revolution is the only way to establish anarcho-communist society
worldwide. Establishing such society is a real task and final goal of
organization. At the same time, the organization does not consider that
such revolution is possible only by its efforts or by its acting as an
avant-garde. We guess the cooperation with many other anarchic
collectives around the world, with ideological positions close to ours,
is possible.
The organization is looking for the ways to its intensive expansion
within Belarus and abroad. The Revolutionary Action is ready for
international cooperation, exchange of experience and mutual aid.
No one outside organization should know it’s actual group members.
Members of RA don’t advertise their membership in organization.
Each member is responsible for certain tasks and perform several
functions, that provide development of organization and anarchist
movement.
Revolutionary Action has fixed membership: activist can be accepted to
the Organization or expelled from it. All decisions are made by
collective discussion, strategic issues with consensus, tactical issues
with voting if it’s necessary.
The using of various methods is justified by objective circumstances,
profit for movement and development prospects, but not by personal
preferences or esthetic attractiveness. So organization uses methods,
which are the most useful at the specific moment.
Organization is an semi-underground structure. Part of it’s activity
isn’t published on the website or in mass media.
The organization carries out activities without regard for the legality
of it. The main reason for the action is the its effectiveness, and
secondary – if it is prohibited or allowed by law.
