Featured page

Parallel polis is the idea that people living under an oppressive regime can build their own institutions alongside the official ones. The Czech dissident Václav Benda set it out in 1978 in an essay for the signatories of Charter 77. He proposed parallel structures in culture, education, information, the economy and politics, to supply what the official order failed to provide. The essay first circulated as samizdat. The Circles handbook traces its idea of a parallel society to the parallel polis, and the Logos website calls Logos "the private-by-default technology stack for parallel societies". (Full page…)
