II Latin American and Caribbean Ecosocialist Meeting: Free Territories and Convergence for Action

2 mois 1 semaine ago

The current times, with the rise of the far right and genocidal wars, mark an era where the contradictions of the current system of production, distribution, and consumption demonstrate that we are in a higher stage of the already characterised civilisational crisis. However, this is not just another of Capitalism's cyclical crises. The metabolic rupture, this irreparable breach in the natural cycle of exchange between human society and nature, challenges human beings' ability to provide responses compatible with the acceleration of socio-environmental destruction.

The Nepalese paroxysmal crisis and its regional context

2 mois 1 semaine ago

It only took a few days for the situation in Nepal to abruptly shift, leading to violent riots, before the resignation of the Oli government and the appointment of lawyer Sushila Karki as interim Prime Minister allowed a return to calm, with de facto power returning to the hands of the army. The explosion of the Nepalese powder keg was preceded and followed by popular movements of a scale rare in the region. Revolted by the arrogance of the oligarchies, they often have the fight against corruption as their banner.

Hundreds of thousands protest against amnesty for Bolsonaro

2 mois 1 semaine ago

SÃO PAULO - Spring in the Southern Hemisphere began a day early in Brazil. On Sunday, 21 September, around 100 cities across the country – including the capitals São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Belo Horizonte, Salvador, Porto Alegre, Recife and Brasília – witnessed something unprecedented in the last three years: activism, the left and social movements took to the streets and squares, alongside a broader popular sector, equally outraged by two measures voted on by the Chamber of Deputies. The demonstrations in São Paulo and Rio were the strongest since the mobilizations for Fora Bolsonaro (Bolsonaro Out) between 2021 and 2022, and the celebration of Lula's victory on Paulista Avenue in October 2022.

Kampen om jernmarkerne

2 mois 1 semaine ago
Profitstyringen af opstillingen af solcelle- og vindmølleparker betyder, at der er betydelig - berettiget - folkelig modstand mod mange projekter. Venstrefløjen og klimabevægelsen må komme ind i kampen om jernmarkerne. Der er brug for en radikalt anderledes politik for opstilling af vedvarende energi (VE).  VE skal flås ud af hænderne på spekulative investorer. Og modstanden mod natur- og menneskefjendsk VE skal flås ud af hænderne på klimabenægtere på den yderste højrefløj.

Socialdemokratisk valgflæsk: Otte nye metrolinjer

2 mois 1 semaine ago
Lige før kommunalvalget kommer Københavns Kommune med forslag til 8 nye metrolinjer. Nye bydele og de store hospitaler skal omsider dækkes af metroen. Men vanen tro er planlægningen kaotisk og mangelfuld: Forstædernes bilister vil fortsætte med at fylde i byens gader, og metroen vil kun i ringe grad bidrage til den nødvendige reduktion af biltallet i den overfyldte hovedstad.

Trump Working to End Free Speech in US

2 mois 2 semaines ago

President Donald Trump, has begun a campaign to end free speech in the USA. Free speech is not only protected in the U.S. Constitution and in law, but also part of American history and culture. But Trump is not literally censoring the content, but rather using his personal wealth or the government's economic power to intimidate the media, universities, and law firms.

Uprising or Dictatorship in Ecuador

2 mois 2 semaines ago

In the afternoon of Thursday, 18 September, the new, apparently right-wing leadership of CONAIE, Ecuador's powerful Indigenous movement, bowed to pressure and called an indefinite national strike - in protest at the removal of subsidies for diesel fuel, a move set to almost double the price of most basic necessities overnight.
