Conferencia internacional
¿Es el sur de Europa el eslabón débil de la integración europea? Rastreo de posibles áreas de cooperación entre movimientos y partidos.
Este otoño, transform! europe alberga un espacio de debate y reflexión sobre los impactos de las políticas europeas de la década pasada en los países del sur. Nuestro objetivo es mirar hacia el futuro y construir estrategias de cooperación comunes como un modelo alternativo a la actual Unión Europea.
Los países del sur de Europa representan el fracaso de la integración europea existente. A pesar de sus diferencias, todos fueron víctimas de varios "paquetes de rescate" impuestos por la Troika, así como de las políticas autoritarias generales de la UE en materia de austeridad, que supuestamente fueron la respuesta para salir de la reciente crisis sistémica. El resultado fue que sus debilidades estructurales, como la precariedad laboral, aumentaron junto con el desempleo, la pobreza y la pérdida de derechos laborales y sociales. Ante esta situación, una conferencia que reúna a académicos y actores políticos de partidos, sindicatos y movimientos sociales reflexionará sobre lo que se ha hecho y, en particular, sobre lo que debe hacer la izquierda, los sindicatos y los movimientos sociales, que en La mayoría de los países del sur son más fuertes que los del resto de Europa.

This fall, transform! europe hosts a space of debate and reflection on the impacts of the past decade European policies on Southern countries. We aim at looking into the future and building common cooperation strategies as an alternative model to the current European Union.
Southern European countries represent the failure of the existing European integration. Despite their differences, all of them were the victims of various ‘bail-out packages’ imposed by the Troika as well as by the general authoritarian EU policies of austerity, which supposedly were the answer to exit from the recent systemic crisis. The result was that their structural weaknesses, like labour precariousness, have increased together with unemployment, poverty and the loss of labour and social rights. In front of this situation, a Conference gathering scholars and political actors from parties, trade unions and movements will reflect on what has been done and, particularly, on what has to be done by the Left, trade-unions and social movements, which in most Southern countries are stronger than those in the rest of Europe.

This Conference is organized by transform! europe and the Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung - Liaison Office Madrid
