Call Out Declaration for the #G20 in St. Petersburg

The crisis of the neoliberal economic order that began late in 2007 has not been overcome in the years since. It has taken on the form of a shifting catastrophe migrating from one part of the world to another. Controlling the movement of capital, and imposing an economic quarantine in the form of protectionist policies, are the minimal steps needed to struggle against this epidemic. But putting these measures into practice is blocked by the neoliberal ideology, hegemonic on a global level, and by the demands of international institutions such as the World Trade Organization (WTO), the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the G-20.

Common declaration of the Central- and Eastern European Social and Environmental Forum

From May 2^nd to 5^th, 2013 the undersigned participants from over thirty Community based Social organisations established in 12 European countries celebrated a 3 days Social and Environmental Forum based on the principles of the Charter of Porto Alegre and following a call of the European Social Forum. As a result of the discussions and deliberations we arrived at the following conclusions:

Under the rule of neoliberal capitalism in crisis, the population of the Central and Eastern European countries has been suffering heavy losses in their life conditions, economy, culture, society, and our environment has been seriously damaged. This is the result of the neoliberal policies of the ruling parties.

#EuropeanSpring Press Release #13M #Brussels

 

People across Europe come together in Brussels and other European capitals this week to reject EU austerity policies and their erosion of democracy. The police have hampered efforts in Brussels by banning the organised march and denying people the right to free assembly.
When the EU Summit takes place in Brussels on the 14th of March it will be in the midst of protests all over Europe and in the Belgian capital itself. “For a European Spring” – a coalition of movements from 13 countries – is calling for actions to denounce the EU approach to the eurocrisis.
A European demonstration was due to take place through the streets of Brussels, but the police have denied authorization – in effect banning it – on the grounds of “lack of resources”.

Convocatoria ¡@Blockupy Frankfurt! el 31 de Mayo – 1 de Junio 2013

Resistencia en el Corazón del Régimen Europeo de la Crisis 31 de Mayo y 1 de Junio de 2013

Otra vez nosotrxs hacemos un llamado para unas jornadas europeas de protesta en contra del régimen de crisis de la Unión Europea en Fráncfort del Meno. El 31 de Mayo y el 1 de junio queremos llevar la resistencia contra las políticas de emprobrecimiento del gobierno y de la Troika – BCE, Comisión Europea y FMI- a uno de los centros del régimen europeo de la crisis: A la sede del Banco Central Europeo (BCE) y de muchos bancos y consorcios alemanes- los beneficiarios de esta política.

Los programas de empobrecimiento y de privatizationes, que ya hace décadas han sido impuestos a los países del Sur Global, ahora han llegado a Europa. La Agenda 2010 alemana sólo era un proyecto piloto por lo que ahora se impone con un alcance aún mas dramático especialmente en el Sur de Europa. Esa depauperización se agudizará aún más – también aquí- si no nos defendemos: la reducción continua de derechos sociales y democráticos. Así se pretende mantener la capacidad de pago para las expectativas de rédito de las grandes fortunas y de aumentar la competitividad económica de Alemania y (del Centro de) Europa en el mercado mundial capitalista a través del abaratamiento y de la precarización del trabajo asalariado.

Manifesto @inviernosalSol, people occupying Sol sq in #Madrid [eng/cast]

[Castellano más abajo]

On February 3, following demonstrations against government corruption scandals, a group of people tired and angry about the political, economic and social and therefore the course that events have taken in recent years , we decided to stay in our Plaza del Sol indefinitely to achieve our goals.

We belong to the streets, the streets belong to us, we will not leave.

We are citizens fighting against corruption. We are people united by the same interests and we want to claim and stimulate civic struggle.

Therefore we decided to write this manifesto in which we appeal to the people to mobilize and demand with us the effective investigation of illegitimate debt, the mass resignation of the government, the repeal of the current constitution and the formation of a constituent assembly to prepare a new constitution capable of returning citizens power over markets and economic corporations, which currently have kidnapped the rule of law.
We need your ideas, your actions and your media. We are young, elderly, students, the unemployed, workers, pensioners, evicted …

We are winters at Sol

[EN-FR-ES] Thirty housing rights activists were arrested in Budapest, IAI solidarity

Dear friends of  A Város Mindenkié,

First of all, I would like to express full solidarity of the International Alliance of Inhabitants with your struggles, which we also consider our own, and firmly demand that all activists be freed right now!

The squatting of vacant housing is not a crime, but it is a legitimate action because of the failure of states to respect their legal obligation, assumed by the ratification of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, to protect the right to housing by appropriate policies. It is therefore a form of struggle that the inhabitants organizations are implementing all over the world, a self-defense tool of the victims of the real estate markets in response to the housing and global crisis caused by neoliberal policies.

Statement /Comunicado #YoSoy132 Internacional

[Castellano más abajo]

Mexico City, December 2nd, 2012

To all the countries of the world,
To Mexicans living abroad

After 12 years of a fake democratic transition, on December 1st the old Partido Revolucionario Institucional (PRI) presidential candidate, Enrique Peña Nieto, took office in Mexico. And just as expected, the PRI used once again the dirty strategies that made them the “perfect dictatorship.” 

As the “YoSoy132″ movement rose as the main oposition against the old regime in the middle of the election campaign, this movement became the main target of negative campaigning, set up by the makers of the Tlatelolco massacre of 1968, this time with the help of Mexican mass media, the ones that control and manipulate most of the information that the people gets, and with the help of the Mexico City government, fronted by Marcelo Ebrard.

The illegitimacy of the new government was made clear when the President office´s police mounted a large metal wall around the Congreso building, the place where the new president was meant to take office. The illegitimacy of the new government was made clear when the former president had to transfer the power to Enrique Peña Nieto in a small, discrete ceremony in the President´s house at Los Pinos at midnight on December 1st.

Within an operation that violated the human rights and the free speech rights of the Mexican people, Enrique Peña Nieto´s government produced today more than 40 people injured being taken to hospitals, and about 200 arrested citizens.

Yosoy132 International asks for all the movement groups abroad -as well as for every Mexican citizen who is aware and upset about the last events- to join the international campaign in demand for the immediate and unconditional liberation of all the people arrested during the protests, and of all the people who has not showed up after the protests. We demand the indemnization for the damages, we demand respect to individual guarantees, and we demand punishment for the culprits of commanding those unlawful arrests.

Our campaign will start with a march on Monday, December 3, 14:00 PM starting at “Angel de la Independencia” and heading to the Zocalo of Mexico City, as well as in every Embassy, Diplomatic office and Main square in the world.

Mexican society, upset because of the Mexican democracy robbery by a small politician elite with the Enrique Peña Nieto office take, witnessed social protests from a big part of the Mexican society. Many social organizations and groups, including “Yo soy 132″, took the streets to show we are not afraid. Our resistance against the new government and their moves just started. 

They showed from day one that PRI equals violence.

For an authentic democracy in Mexico,

#YoSoy132 Internacional

Spain: If you really want to solve the evictions, listen to @La_PAH

The Spanish Congress decides on ratification or repeal of the “Royal Decree on urgent measures to strengthen the protection to mortgage debtors”, designated name to the recent evictions partial moratorium adopted by the Government.

PAH (Platform of People Afected by Mortgage) remember that this decree will not solve the problem of evictions, but may even make it worse.

First, this moratorium is insufficient because it excludes most people affected by requirements that are arbitrary and discriminatory (For example, will benefit a family with a child under three years, but not one in the same economic conditions with two children aged 4 years). All the people who may lose their home for economic reasons are vulnerable cases. Is significant that suicide cases for eviction in recent weeks, none of them would benefit from the decree.

Second, it does not address the debt problem: only provides a moratorium of eviction for two years maximum in a few cases. During that time, interest continue to increase and, when finish the moratorium, debt will be even higher. It does not say anything about the people already affected by the 400,000 foreclosures that have already been made ​​in Spain and those that opened this debate. Thousands of people sentenced to be banned for life financial, with unpayable and illegitimate debts.

Third, the decree can get worse the situation because it ignores all the people affected by eviction from primary residence, is a case of extreme vulnerability. Losing your home without where to go is the worst thing that can happen to a person or family. Therefore, all those affected are in a desperate situation. Considering this, the decree may cause some of these people end up attacking their own health to the requirement of “serious illness”, or decide to have a child to enter the category of “family with child up to 3 years “, or even the occurrence of false allegations of gender violence, as it is another criteria of” vulnerability “established by the decree. So, this measure can end up causing more damage than it was supposed to solve.

In any case, there is time to rectify. Even late, the drama of the evictions and mortgage debts that affects thousands of families requires urgent action to address the situation. Therefore, we urge the Government to listen to the PAH: if something we have is depth knowledge and experience in the field. Our demands are not only supported by most of the population and, unlike banks, our opinions are not contaminated by speculative interests but pursue the implementation of human rights and the general welfare.

If you really want to solve the problem, listen to the PAH
