NEW ISSUE OF DO OR DIE!

10-09-2003 21:10 | Analysis | Ecology | Social Struggles | World

The (very) long awaited issue 10 of radical ecological journal Do or Die is out now.

Do or Die is an occasional journal crammed with reports and analysis from the world-wide ecological frontlines. These are the voices not of outsiders, journalists or academics, but of those involved in the struggles themselves. In these times of concrete alienation these voices shine hope from movements that take action to defend nature, create revolution and re-wild humanity.

The WTO Drug Deal -- How Hope was Bargained Away

There was a time when health activists thought a global trade deal on
affordable medicines would be an
achievement worth celebrating.

Now they have one. But they're not celebrating.

Last weekend, members of the World Trade Organization agreed on a plan

Mr Schill, the leader of a new far-right party, was the vice mayor and responsible for recent heavy repression against left-wing/alternative groups and social movements in Hamburg, including the eviction of the Bambule trailer park, which had led to a wave of protests and demonstrations.
