//Syspirosi Atakton// (σΑ) was an anarchist/anti-authoritarian group in Nicosia. Its activities began in October 2012 and ended in 2024.

It organized the feminist/queer [[en:groups:sispirosiatakton:gendersandpower|Gender and Power Festival]], and participated in the Cypriot network [[en:groups:demilitarisednicosia|Assembly for a Demilitarized Nicosia]], and the European network Beyond Europe.

It was systematically involved in gender issues, the Commons and ecology, anti-militarism and the reunification of Cyprus. In 2015, it opened [[en:groups:kaymakkin|Social Space Kaymakkin]] in Kaimakli, on the south side of Nicosia.

=====Group Identity=====

<blockquote>We consider ourselves as part of a wider anarchist/antiauthoritarian movement willing to deconstruct and undermine the structural forms of the current socio-political system and put into practice alternative forms of socio-political organisation. Based on our local experience we are participating to an international antiauthoritarian network, trying to circulate the ideas of self-organization, self-legislation and solidarity.

The world, now, is passing through a grave crisis. The present political dynamics will decide if the current state of emergency, -with its military invasions, oppression and social repression- will extend, or whether the resistance being developed worldwide will prove to be efficient enough to halt it. We are marching towards the hope that this global resistance will prevail, fighting the solid base of this brutal system: capitalism/hierarchy/patriarchy.

The above three aspects of our lives are structurally interlinked, dominate our actions and subjugate the human spirit. Therefore we believe that antiauthoritarian practice should take place in various forms including matters of class, race and gender –always refuting bipolar dichotomies and fighting the ways in which our current political system is creating domains of abjected beings and domains of subjectivity based on arbitrary bias. The radical movement should primarily start from the inside: it needs to fight any hierarchical, sexist, racist, nationalist behaviour because this normative discourse and practice is allowing the present system to reproduce itself.(([[https://web.archive.org/web/2/https://syspirosiatakton.org/who-is-syspirosi-atakton/|Website of Syspirosi Atakton]] Description of the group))</blockquote>
