RADIO K CENTRALE 107.05 Mhz
Self managing Radio for Bologna and Province

What is Radio K Centrale?

     It's a project of communication born in Bologna (Italy) in
the summer of 1992 from a great number of persons who recognize
themseleves in the Italian new left, and more precisely in the
autonomous movement. Together with RKC, other 7 sister-radios are
currently covering the national territory - Radio Sherwood
(Padova); Radio Onda D'urto (Milan and Brescia); Radio Onda Rossa
(Rome); Radio Blackout (Turin) and others. All of these radios
are part of AIRA (Agency of Information of Antagonist Networks)
together with the world-wide communicationm network ECN (European
Counter Network).
     Moreover, the radios are directly linked with the squatted
social centers, self-organized work committees, libraries and
documentation centers, as well as being present and the active in
situations of social fight inside the urban and human evirnment.
Its obvious to assert that RKC is a keypoint in the network,
network of varoius realities, which keep their own autonomy of
movement, but which are all looking forward to continuous
interaction, information exchanges, and to the promotion of
direct actions for the satisfaction of peoples real nedds. RKC,
as well as the other sister radios are growing with the necessity
of coming out from cultural impositions and mass-media logics.
Self-management is the keyword, the tool which gives life to the
project and allows to remain completely independent and out of
sharing-out logics of culture and politics of the economical,
political and cultural potentates.
     The financing of the radio is based on the programming of
various concerts, initiatives, on listeners subscriptions and on
comrades who are working everyday in the studio. Self-management
is thus becoming a political and cultural pattern to re-propose,
a way to underline the power contradictions and clashes which are
dominating the urban structure of our territories.
