Anarchist Bookfair
The Anarchist Bookfair is the name of several annual anarchist book fairs.
The British Bookfair started in 1983, and it has become the largest anarchist event in the British calendar,[1] and is a combination of stalls, talks and workshops by anarchist groups and campaigns.
Most British anarchist groups attend such as Freedom Press, Anarchist Federation, Kate Sharpley Library, Class War, Solidarity Federation and the WOMBLES.
The 2005 event ended with riot police[2] while the 2006 event was attended by the Libertarian Alliance group who were thrown out.[1]
