Coordination of Anarchist Groups

The CGA was created mainly by groups from southern France who left the Anarchist Federation (French: Fédération Anarchiste, FA) at the organization's 60th congress in June 2002. The split occurred because of their refusal of the practice of unanimity in the decision-making process within the FA, which the CGA considered to be a “source of immobility”, instead favoring a method of decision-making by qualified majority.^[5]

However, it still retained links with the Anarchist Federation, with which it collaborated on a joint campaign against participation in the presidential and legislative elections of May–June 2007.^[5]

In March 2015, the CGA suffered several defederations following an internal crisis.^[6] One of the consequences was that the newspaper Infos et analyzes libertaires ceased to be the organization's press organ, being replaced by the newspaper Résistances libertaires.^{[citation needed]}

In July 2018, it began a process of rapprochement with Alternative Libertaire, with a view to a possible unification.^[7] On 10 June 2019, the two organizations merged to create the Libertarian Communist Union.^[8]
