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.

Remembering Daniel Bensaïd

Thousands of people gathered at La Mutualité in Paris on Sunday, January 24, 2010 to render homage to deceased IIRE fellow Daniel Bensaïd. Hosted by Fred Borras and Myriam Martin, both from the leadership of the NPA and from Toulouse, like Daniel, this was an emotional and militant act of remembrance to his memory.

C’est avec une tristesse profonde, que l’équipe de l’IIRF a accueilli la nouvelle du décès de notre collaborateur Daniel Bensaïd. Nous voulons ici exprimer nos sincères condoléances à sa famille et à ses nombreux camarades de partout dans le monde.

Militant révolutionnaire depuis l’adolescence, Daniel Bensaïd avait été l’un des fondateurs de la JCR (Jeunesse Communiste Révolutionnaire) en 1966 puis l’un des animateurs du Mouvement du 22 Mars et l’un des acteurs du mouvement de Mai 68 avant de participer à la création de la Ligue Communiste, en avril 1969
