gle for improvements and reforms within Capitalism into an openly revolutionary

movement aiming to replace the present system - while, at the same time, fighting the
day-to-day struggle in an Anarchist way.
By organising in the workplaces and communities, we, instead of being isolated indi-
viduals, will be in a position to take control of our own lives and link up with others,
and so create a power that can deal the injustices of Capitalism crippling blows and, in
the long run, create a world based on solidarity, equality, freedom and social justice.
The struggle will be long and hard, but worth it. We at Zabalaza Books are commit-
ted to developing a movement that will create this New World.

We have a World to Win!
