PRC: protest against water privatization

Comunicato Stampa di Rifondazione Comunista:
Ferrero: "Saremo in piazza contro la privatizzazione dell'acqua"

Dichiarazione di Paolo Ferrero, segretario nazionale del Prc-Se.

"Il governo Berlusconi, sordo come era facile prevedere alle migliaia di proteste dei cittadini e della società civile arrivate in queste settimane contro il ddl Ronchi, che di fatto privatizza le acque pubbliche italiane, ha posto la questione di fiducia al Senato, blindando il decreto. Come Rifondazione comunista abbiamo aderito con convinzione all'appello lanciato dal Forum italliano dei movimenti per l'acqua che ha chiesto al Parlamento italiano di ritirare il decreto legge 135, decreto con il quale si privatizza water in Italy.

The defense of water as a common good has been one of the battles that characterize the history of the communist PRC. The choice of the Senate to privatize the water in addition to being wrong and dangerous, as this will become an essential commodity, common to all citizens of a privilege and profit for the few, is also in contrast to the choices that other countries that had previously opted for the path of water privatization, which are now back on its feet and who are ripubblicizzando water services.

Rifondazione has been and will be present in all the mobilizations in defense of public water and will require all its elected representatives in local authorities to engage a sostenere la difesa dell'acqua come bene comune e bene pubblico. Il Prc, infine, s'impegna a far diventare il tema dell'acqua pubblica uno dei temi forti della manifestazione del prossimo 5 dicembre, il No Berlusconi Day".

paramilitary groups against the workers

Da " Il Manifesto " dell'11 novembre 2009

Prove tecniche di fascismo. Non tanto ideologico quanto padronale. Ma anche gli squadristi non sono più quelli di una volta, e quindi un padrone – in questo caso Samuele Landi, ex amministratore delegato di Eutelia – è costretto ad affittarli da una delle tante agenzie private managing the 'safety'.
Yesterday morning at 5 and a quarter, a dozen bodyguards in order 'heads of leather (black uniforms, ski masks, crowbars and maxitorce bi-manual in hand) have penetrated inside the Roman settlement on the Via Tiburtina . Inside slept twenty workers who patrol for days - here as in all Italy - the premises of the group. In a military raid planned >>> read more

How Much Should I Charge To Make A Cake

"Clouds": twenty

These days the world celebrates the twentieth anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. The magazine has decided to deal with clouds, not so much to celebrate As for open questions. Determine whether the developments of the last twenty years have resulted in more positive or negative effects is not easy.

Eastern Europe has abandoned socialism and the great opportunity that this event offered to build a better world has not been caught.

Internal Affairs Mediafire

years after The Manifesto: A left, a non-party

From the website of Il Manifesto, an article by Paolo Cacciari

Just launched an anonymous message on the network to trigger a general mobilization antiberlusconismo. On October 3, Rome has been invaded by a "new political subject" (migrants) self. Small initiatives, such as those launched by the weekly paper for a "clandestine day," bounce hundreds of squares. Major initiatives, such as the primaries of the Democratic Party, won her millions of people over the same members of that party. Not to mention that the resistance of the metal workers in the factories is far from residual. I might add conferences around Italy's (relatively) new personalities from the worlds of culture and journalism that become attractions of mass (I think of Labor, or Latouche, or Francucci Gesualdi). I think the mobilization that is growing in view of Coopenaghen.
I think, in short, just below the crust with the official representation of society, there is a fervor research ways of being together that emerge from social relations that requires the market. Who, looking at opinion polls, says that now he would complete an anthropological mutation such that there would be no help for it (capitalism would be able to shape the individual to the unique dimension of producers / consumers, to the point that led them to a consensual slavery), is a logical error log: the benchmark can not be elections. These are in fact a rigged game, a mirror that distorts reality, not the sacred representation of popular will, as we were taught the liberal ideal models. The election in this political-economic system, have changed sign: an index of realization of democracy (if it ever were for real) have become the most heavy and coarse manipulation system of "public opinion". It's not just jumped proportionality, or the astronomical cost of a vote (and an elected representative) on the market policy, dominated by the tools of mass communication and the inevitable, thus leading a show of power. In reality all these are coarse and childish tricks to artificially prolong the life of a political and institutional system whose mission is to form a sovereign will of the people, but to support and transmit orders from the lobby, elite cosmocrats che rappresentano una casta che consiste nell’1% del 20% della popolazione globale ma detiene la totalità della ricchezza globale privata accumulata.
La gente lo sa e ne prende atto: dalle elezioni è inutile pensare che possa uscire di più di quel che possono dare nell’immediato. Per cui è possibile votare indifferentemente e contemporaneamente per il meno peggio, astenersi, testimoniare un’alterità, premiare il partito che meglio tutela il mio territorio o il mio lavoro, dare fiducia al candidato più simpatico o a quello che credo di conoscere meglio… Ciò non significa che le ragioni del conflitto sociale (sale della democrazia) siano espunte. Né che siano andati perduti le volontà di cambiamento and desires for social justice, inclusiveness and participation.
If we want to rebuild a political entity that has equity and environmental sustainability (as written on the manifest Alberto Asor) and that its tenets should also pass back through the institutions, "lay", then it will be first of all "non-electoral ', or rather not exclusively or predominantly election. That is, not a quasi-public system, but a "non-party 'in the sense (see Flores d'Arcais, always on the poster on Wednesday) that can not live by himself in the closed system of self-party politics. Decisive, then, are the forms of politics that are practiced, le modalità d’essere che predeterminano gli stessi risultati.
Tempo fa Paul Ginsburg (il manifesto del 3 luglio) diceva che c’erano due possibilità per la ricostruzione di una sinistra politica: una richiede «un lungo lavoro territoriale, scrivere decaloghi di interventi programmatici e di comportamento individuale. Bisogna capire che un nuovo soggetto politico, radicalmente diverso dal passato, ha necessità di tempo per crescere e radicarsi prima di dare frutti (…) accompagnare il lavoro sociale con una costante attenzione all’elaborazione teorica». L’altra scelta è «diametralmente opposta e si basa sull’ammissione che l’attuale sinistra italiana è semplicemente incapace to invent something new. "
groups and associations scattered throughout the country, social sites and workshops of the ideas born in the practices of conflict and the bearers of forms of participatory democracy, are working for a long time to get groped in the report, weave the experiences, coordinate their political agendas, experiment with forms of listening and mutual aid. I think of the many experiences of networks and connections, joint campaigns and mutual aid, local networks and labor disputes. You can start from here? "On the part of those without," as recalled by Pezzella, that the interests of the 'unrepresentable' in the theater of institutionalized politics. From below, from below and 'left', to the left if we want a strong affection for a framework of ethical values \u200b\u200band social sensibilities. Finding reasons to be together without any discipline that is not the method of consent. Without wishing to produce identity foreclosure. Without wishing to impose any pre-determined hierarchy of subjectivities, cultures, policies, ideals and theories that move individuals and movements.
in Florence on 21 and 22 November, will now find a number of associations, clubs, groups that engaged in initiatives in their small unit of resistance of civil solidarity, self-management and who want to know. For the moment came @ a network left. To them the task of exploring a new path, and also mainly in ways and forms of politics.
