STALLS AND DISTROS

CNT France (Confédération Nationale du Travail)
The CNT name now appears regularly on leaflets, at demonstrations and in the media. However, although these three letters are becoming familiar, their meaning often remains somewhat unclear. There are several reasons for this. "Although 'Confédération nationale du travail' (National Confederation of Labour) indicates that it is a trade union organisation, the terms are otherwise unclear and contain the word 'national', which is hardly appropriate in France today. Secondly, references to the CNT, revolutionary syndicalism and anarcho-syndicalism often give way to "anarchism", which does not correspond. Lastly, its falsely sulphurous image, tinged with violence, which the media readily present as gratuitous, obscures the external perception of its militant reality. The existence of another "CNT", a remnant of a former split, sometimes complicates the understanding of the CNT.

Deconstruction
A platform formed by a collective of quirky anarchists to bring communities together.

Grupa Nieustającej Pomocy (Group of Perpetual Help)
We are an non-hierarchical anarcho-queer self-help collective from Poland. We're dedicated to supporting those whom the system fails the most: both each other and the complete strangers who write to us every day asking for support. We want to support without shaming, without asking and without doing it as charity work. We have been operating under the banner of Our Group of Perpetual Help (Grupa Nieustającej Pomocy in polish) since the second half of 2020.

K115
We are a collective of politically active people striving for social change. Who seek a radically different alternative to the current economic order. Our activity is decided collectively and consensually. Anyone and everyone can actively participate in the planning, strategy formulation and decision making of the collective. We are not a political party. In our view, a better future is not to be brought about by representative democracy, but by an active and broad social movement built from below. It is not important to us how old someone is, what gender they identify with or what colour their skin is. And last but not least, we are part of the Beyond Europe coalition.

Neklid
In Neklid we publish books that would not otherwise be published here. We focus on left-wing theory and practice, publishing environmental, feminist, political, economic and related literature in translation and by Czech authors.
Neklid is not a classical publishing house, but is based on voluntary work, in which you can get involved.
Publishing books under the Neklid label is one of the activities of the registered association Svobodná knihovna, which focuses on education with an emphasis on social, environmental and cultural issues and on promoting and developing critical thinking.

Nevim
We are the publishing section of the social cooperative Tři Ocásci. We want to publish literature, or even pseudo-literature, that reinforces radical imagination and an anti-system sense of humour.
The title Nevim refers to the Socratic shrug at the futility of trying to know everything and the flow of Tři Ocásci of never-ending shift and return. And last but not least, to the Zapatista movement that walks with questions together and slowly because the goal is far away.

Plav
Plav is a printed monthly magazine dedicated to world literature. It has been published since 2005 and ten times a year since 2019, publishing mainly original translations of fiction. It focuses on literatures and language areas that are not well represented on the Czech book market, and by gradually exploring places both near and far on the literary map, it tries to create a more balanced, truer picture of world literature. In doing so, he reflects on important contemporary themes such as poverty, women's equality and the position of minorities, but deals with them exclusively through literature itself.

RTP+ Forged books
"Radical Theory and Practice" was born in 2010 as an informal network of volunteers who collectively translate books in their spare time, and in early 2014 it evolved into a publishing cooperative where relationships are built horizontally and decisions are made by consensus.
By publishing books on the history of liberation movements, social and environmental initiatives, alternative economic models, and political prisoners, we seek to inspire activists to new actions and move our society towards social transformation.
Our goal is to disseminate information as widely as possible, not for profit, which is why we make our books freely available after a period of time.
We are open to new contributors, collaborations with authors and other collectives, and are open to suggestions for translation and publication of suitable books.
All questions and suggestions can be sent to rtp(at)riseup.net.

Salé distribuce
At the beginning of 2012, an open library was established in the Salé info café in Žižkov, offering titles from Czech and foreign (not only anarchist) publishers and collectives. During the eight years of its existence, thousands of books were read and sold here and at the many festivals, concerts and streets where members went. The group around Salé, which is still involved in organising the Anarchist Book Festival and attending other offshoots of it across Europe, was forced to leave its base and continue its work in a different way.
Some of us began to co-build the cooperative project Roleta39, where the whole distribution eventually moved and began to expand. Also, the launch of online sales has helped to extend the reach of radical and politically aware literature beyond its previous circle of adherents, and normally unavailable publications are now freely distributed to all sides. The point of all this effort is not to allow you to be stunted. We will not keep our opinion to ourselves. We will not accept narrow-mindedness.

Sedmá generace
The bimonthly magazine Sedmá generace has been published since 1991 with the aim of reflecting the social and ecological aspects of the development of contemporary civilization and placing them in a broader context, whether political, economic or generally cultural. Our main thematic focus is on nature and environmental protection, renewable energy, alternative economics, organic agriculture, eco-evolution, human and animal rights and minority culture. The axis of each issue is the main theme, in which we detail more timeless phenomena and trends, such as sharing, slow living, plant rights, eco-sex or the plastocene. In addition, we regularly feature reports, interviews, book and film reviews or series on more sustainable consumption and media. In addition to the print version, 7.G is published in pdf, mobi and epub formats, and the entire archive is available on the website for subscribers. The publisher of 7.G is the branch of Hnutí DUHA - Sedmá generace.
The name of the magazine, which was published as Last Generation until 1997, is symbolic. Inspired by the Great Law of the Iroquois, we are convinced that if we as humanity want to live on this planet in contentment and peace, our actions must also take into account the needs of our descendants. And that includes those who will come seven generations after us.

Solidarity Apothecary
Solidary Apothecary and Black Moon Calendar
The Solidary Apothecary collective overlaps with the Black Moon collective, and in addition to creating and publishing a calendar that seeks a distinctive approach to the course of the year, we prepare and distribute herbal products to promotex ideas of mutual aid and self-healing. In this way we want to contribute to our independence from the pharmaceutical industry and conventional medicine. In the production of we put our own resources into the production process and use the proceeds to support (like the proceeds from Black Moon) various collectives and projects that, like us, are trying to make a different world from the one we live in. In the past, we have supported No Borders, Anarchist Black Cross, Vzletný Seagull, Ciocia Czesia and others.
