Editorial

The development of the capitalist city continues, zoning and specialization of territories 
strengthened. Here is the core product, there's entertainment and there's waste. 
"Reduction" of the length of our trips, sometimes daily, between two modern cities (with 
their traditional town center pedestrianized which is consumed in the same chain of stores 
operating on the same blocks) destroyed a sense of time, report being in the world. The
acceleration of the transport supports and justifies our lives: at work or at home, we 
find ourselves with more and more tasks to do, always faster.

At the time of the grounding, the long and patient improvement of its conditions, the 
creation of stable relationships support and solidarity are fought or made almost 
impossible by the daily operation of the techno-industrial society, immobility can thus be 
seen as a revolutionary value.

The mobility of workers and workers as well as tourists is continuously valued or imposed, 
but many constraints to immobility also exist. Undocumented persons or Workers migrants
know only too well. For some jobs, and they are assigned to residence, are or their 
passports are confiscated upon arrival in the exploiter countries.

Women, we wanted to assign to the private area, also are constrained in their movements
due to male violence intrinsic to the patriarchal system.

Against the liberal ideology of the massive movement of goods, including human, against
urban sprawl and the triumph of the car against the high-speed and destruction, it is not 
to refuse to block any prospect of moving but to regain full control of our mobility. 
Relocation and questioning of social and ecological value of our activities, immobility
chosen, the practice of hitchhiking, biking or walking trails are dug to stop flowing ever 
faster and more often a place of business-consumer to another.

About

Offensive Libertarian and Social was born in 2003 from a desire to participate in the 
construction of a real offensive that put an end to capitalism, patriarchy and contributes 
to the development of other future without reports domination or exploitation. We advocate 
for a society based on solidarity, social equality and freedom. Several principles 
underlie OLS:

Independence Act in a manner free from any institutional logic tied to the state or capital.

Federalism groups and self-es that make OLS are autonomous, they associate freely while
respecting the foundations and values ??of the OLS.

Assemblyism Practice or encourage modes of horizontal organization and decision-making 
relied on direct democracy.

Anti-authoritarianism Combat all forms of domination they social, gender, 'race' ... We
also reject the logic of conquest of power that the establishment of institutional powers 
to fight against-against hierarchical practices.

Out Through our policy interventions and practices, we seek to raise the question of the 
end of the current society. We want to promote the existence of alternative social 
relations and support the development of space and time emancipated and subversive. We 
participate in the emergence of creative utopia.

Mutual support research and promote the contribution of solidarity between projects 
subversion, according to the principles of freedom of association and experimentation, to 
act in accordance with the partners ... We want to work for a world where well-being and 
happiness are among the top concerns.

OLS is as an element in the libertarian constellation, making its contribution to the 
revolutionary movement. The organization is not an end in itself and should not take 
precedence over the struggle and reflection.

We refuse to get involved according to our own organizational interests, to "pass" a fight 
to the other according to the fashions. Although we appear from time to time as "OLS" -
through Offensive newspaper we publish and at some political events - to confront, defend 
or share our values, our ideas, our practices, we refuse logical representation. In a 
society based on appearances, the revolutionary movement must not succumb to the lure of 
the show.

We fight especially against everything that makes us human beings alienated and / or 
oppressors : social exploitation, economic insecurity, patriarchy, heterosexism, 
technological tyranny, racism, mass. Faced with the logic of confinement and stupidity, we 
offer other forms of emancipatory associations where return engagement between theory and 
practice are permanent and where we can build stable relationships, not alienating, esteem 
and Cooperation.

We want to build a truly democratic society, if one defines democracy as a form of 
organization of power to know and control our conditions. It is important to consider new 
social organizations that allow sharing discussions and decisions. This amounts to 
breaking the power of autonomy. It must not be outside of society, but within it: it must 
be socialized.

If the parentage of OLS is in the long history of anarchism, we also refer to other 
associations and movements. We try our level contribute to the renewal of the libertarian 
critique, to participate in the establishment and anti-authoritarian and liberating 
broadcast alternatives.
