Bottom-up rights and ethical globalization

The UN human rights instruments have left out a number of rights which particularly affect the independent peoples (e.g. small business) and the most disadvantaged.

These rights need to be struggled for to be included in domestic and international human rights law.Elementary Dr. Watson, Elementary...

Tarnac 9: Summons for examination of witnesses in Berlin and Hamburg
11-07-2009 10:30
Recently three people in Germany received an order to appear in the court of Berlin, resp. Hamburg next week to speak out against comrades in France. None of them will speak to the judge, in both places collective public appearances will take place. You find the call out for the thing in Berlin below, the Hamburg text is not translated so far, but the idea is pretty much the same. As well you will find here a text written after the Berlin police was sent to the house of one of these comrades to steal her handwriting for a comparison with a letter found with one of the people in the Tarnac proceedings. The attempt was not successful so far.A strange night in Greece
