* Parallel Polis in theory

Parallel Polis is a theoretical concept developed by Czech dissident
Vaclav
Benda (1942–1999) during the height of communist domination in
Czechoslovakia
in the 1970s. It was translated into English in 1978.
Benda argues that in a repressed state, it is impossible to overturn
corrupt
social, economic and political institutions. Such efforts are futile.
Instead, he suggests the creation of new "parallel institutions" that
are more
responsible to human needs.

* Parallel Polis in practice

We were impressed by the concept of Vaclav Benda’s Parallel Polis and
Timothy C May’s Crypto Anarchistic Manifesto and Cyphernomicon.

Embracing the current crypto-technologies we have realized a practical
feasibility of these utopian theories and started a unique freedom
think tank
focused on the promotion of digital freedom, cryptocurrencies,
anonymization
networks and free markets.

For this purpose we decided to rent a big 3-floor house (with almost
1000m2)
in the center of Prague (Holešovice) - one floor dedicated to Bitcoin
coffee-house, hub and hackerspace called Institute of Cryptoanarchy. :)

* Founders of Parallel Polis

Parallel polis is 100% state-free project, based on voluntary
contributions
only of our members and donors.
Founding members are people from Czech contemporary-art group Ztohoven
(http://ztohoven.com/) and group of cryptoanarchists from Czech and
Slovak
hackerspaces, see their recent projects Moral Reform (hack of Czech
Parliament)

ate-hack/
and Citizen K (

freedom.
