Madrid Book Fair excludes Frederick Engels Foundation - An attack on freedom of expression Spain Share Tweet The Madrid Book Fair organisers have taken a decision to exclude the F. Engels Foundation from this year’s book fair. The FFE is the main publisher and distributor of Marxist books in Spain and has been participating in the Madrid book fair since 1998. The growing interest that it has generated is seen as a threat by the organisers and sponsors of the Fair. The organising committee is meeting for the last time before the book fair on Monday April 24th. We have received an appeal for protest letters to be sent to the organisers asking them to review their position. There is a model letter in Spanish which you can sign. Make sure you send copies of any letters to fundacion_federico@engels.org The Madrid Book Fair organisers have taken a decision to exclude the F. Engels Foundation from this year’s book fair.
