A-Infos (en) Russia, Avtonom: Modern libertarian theories and practices: section at the "Vectors" conference (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

On April 18, the international conference "Vectors" will be held in 
Shaninka (Gazetny Lane, 3-5. 1) in Moscow. The conference will have a 
section "Modern libertarian theories and practices." ---- Thematic 
blocks: ---- * Education. The opening speaker is Maria Rachmaninova. 
This block collects reports on libertarian pedagogy; about educational 
issues from the standpoint of anarchism and criticism of hierarchies; on 
the interaction of anarchist initiatives with educational institutions 
(universities, schools).
* Infrastructure. The opening speakers are the team of the COMPOST 
cooperative. The block is dedicated to infrastructural, urban, economic 
and technological solutions - in a libertarian vein. Here you will be 
able to hear (and talk!) about the technologies of decentralized 
self-government (DAO organizations), the real experience of 
cooperatives, free price stores, communes, co-livings - and the 
anarchist philosophy of technology.

* Expanding anarchist thought. Opening speaker - Pyotr Ryabov. The block 
is dedicated to enriching anarchist theory by crossing it with various 
philosophical concepts and modern cultural movements, as well as 
rethinking established concepts and schools of thought in a libertarian 
vein: for example, identity politics, existentialism, (anti) 
Malthusianism. Here we will talk about anarchist epistemologies.

* Libertarian arts. The opening speaker is Alexander Migursky (EGALITÉ 
project). Science fiction, poetry, cinema, video games-and their 
intersections with libertarianism-are the focus of this block. Issues of 
anarchist aesthetics, art practices and artistic reinterpretation of 
discourses about anarchism in modern media will be addressed.

* Anthropology and sociality. Here we will discuss human relationships; 
formation, dynamics and practices of social groups. What leads to the 
emergence of hierarchy at the interpersonal and social level - and what 
helps to maintain more libertarian, free, horizontal or akratic forms of 
interaction? One of the speakers will talk about how activists in 
Polynesia managed to build a coalition for collective action that took 
into account the cultural characteristics of ethnic groups.

* Off-topic block. This block will contain reports that are not 
currently included in groups by topic, but are no less worthy of 
attention than others. For example, reports on local political 
participation or experience of conflict mediation initiatives.
