IIRE 2009 Annual Report

Globally, 2009 has been marked by the economic crisis, which has turned out to be a systemic crisis for the capitalist world system as such. As this crisis is converging with the climate crisis, the world stage is set for a radical change in global social relations. This constitutes a major challenge for progressive forces around the world, and has required the International Institute for Research and Education to rethink its programmes and curricula. The global crises, and our attempt to analyse them from different perspectives, remained a cardinal point of all IIRE activities throughout 2009.

With no less than four seminars and two longer educational sessions 2009 turned out to be a very productive year for the International Institute for Research and Education.

Recordando a Daniel Bensaïd

Miles de personas que llenaban la Sala de la Mutualité rendieron homenaje a Daniel Bensaïd. Conducido por Fred Borras y Myriam Martin, ambos de la dirección del NPA y de Toulousse, como Daniel, tuvo lugar un emotivo y militante acto de recuerdo a su memoria.

Recibimos con profunda tristeza la noticia del fallecimiento de nuestro camarada Daniel Bensaïd. Deseamos expresar nuestro sentimiento a sus familiares y a sus camaradas del mundo entero.

Desde su adolescencia fue militante revolucionario. Daniel Bensaïd fue uno de los fundadores de la JCR (Juventud comunista revolucionaria) en 1966, uno de los animadores del Movimiento del 22 de marzo y uno de los actores del movimiento de Mayo del 68 antes de participar en la creación de la Liga Comunista Revolucionaria en abril de 1969.
