transform! europe bei „Florenz 10+10“

 Die Versammlung ist entlang von fünf Themengebieten strukturiert:

1)      Demokratie

2)      Finanzen / Schulden / Austerität

3)      Arbeits- und soziale Rechte

4)      Gemeingüter und öffentliche Dienstleistungen

5)      Europa im Mittelmeerraum und der Welt.

Der Einladungstext nennt zwei Hauptziele: „Erstens, durch Bündelung der Kräfte auf europäischer Ebene eine gemeinsame Antwort auf die Krise und die von den EU-Institutionen und der EZB auferlegte Politik zu geben; zweitens, Bündnisse für eine langfristige Strategie zu bilden, die den Aufbau eines sozialen Europa, eines Europa der europäischen BürgerInnen ermöglichen“.

Darüber hinaus formuliert die Einladung als weiteres Ziel der Versammlung: „Die Anwesenheit von Teilnehmenden unterschiedlicher Hintergründe, von Netzwerken, Bewegungen, Gewerkschaften, Vereinigungen und NGOs aus verschiedenen Ländern und mit unterschiedlicher Zusammensetzung soll eine Annäherung und ein gemeinsames Bemühen um eine starke und breite anti-neoliberale Mobilisierung ermöglichen, die als Alternative zu einem Europa der Bankiers, der Vorherrschaft des Marktes, der Finanzspekulationen und des Fiskalpakts gelten kann“.

Coping with the Challenge posed by the Crisis – A Dialogue between Social Movements and Political Actors

10 November, 14:00 – 16:00

Trade unions, social and ecological movements and NGOs try to enhance the efficiency in the fight for a democratic, social and ecological Europe. How does this relate to politics? The Alter Summit is led by the social movements, but at the same time the support of political forces which agree with its demands is welcome. Political actors are invited to join in the fight if they share the fundamental analysis of the “call” for the Alter-Summit (http://www.altersummit.eu).

Speakers: Speaker of SYRIZA, Greece, Political Personalities from SP and the Greens (tbc), Vittorio Agnoletto, Italy (former Spokesperson of Genoa 2002) and speakers of Trade Unions, social movements and of transform! europe
