shovel
On Sunday, 17th October 2004, a demonstration will take place in Krems/Stein, Austria. Remember: On 19th August 2004, Edwin Ndupu died at Stein prison after an operation by 15 to 20 special security officers in full armor. A more than sceptical expert opinion from the Vienna Medical Jurisprudence said Ndupu died on self-inflicted injuries.

Jerusalem: The “City of Peace”

13-10-2004 18:43

This week I was reminded of just how far the names of cities in Palestine are from the realities of how life is in those cities.

Beyond PGA:

Days & Nights of Communist ideas and action
A short analysis of the socio-political role of the PGA

Our consensus analysis decided that the PGA is incapable of achieving revolutionary change as this is something which can only be acheived by the working class at a global level. We speak for our group and no-one else.

These texts express our position following the workshops at the recent european Conference of Peoples' Global Action at Resnik.

At first we must understand Peoples Global Action (PGA) - and subsequently Peoples Global Action in Europe Process (PGA-e)) - as institutions which parallel the development of capitalist institutions of governance.

Over the last 30 years, capital expanded both horizontally (over the whole planet) and vertically (the commodification of everyday life i.e. leisure). New institutions were created to manage the dynamics of the world markets, such as the World Bank, the Group of 8 (G8), the World Trade Organisation (WTO) etc. The PGA was originally created as an "opposition" to such institutions, and more specifically as an "opposition" to the World Trade Organisation whose 2nd WTO ministerial conference took place in Geneva in May 1998. The PGA-e is the child of the PGA.

We urge everyone to demonstrate their solidarity with the long-suffering Palestinian people and rise up against Israel’s support here in Britain.
