text in English: Dodewaard will close! Action camp Dodewaard, manifestations, actions. May 24-25, 1980

background: This is the famous discussioncamp at Pentecost 1980. During those two days, several thousands of people discussed a proposal for an occupation of the nuclear reactor site in the autumn. The plan for the occupation was changed in a week long blockade due to expected state repression in case of a attempt to occupy the site. In other countries many occupations had taken place, but only when reactors were still under construction, never of a working reactor. The camp was also very important to spread the idea of affinity groups and to build a structure for the movement.
