Détails: Catégorie parente: Publications

By IIRE Fellow Claudio Katz, June 2008.

The prolonged conflict between ruralismo and the government has resulted in an exhausting political battle. The first bloc aims to hoard the agrarian rent at the cost of the popular majority, and the government needs to exhibit authority in order to implant a social pact that favours the capitalist class as a whole.

This question is ever so urgent to discuss, in order to advance concrete proposals and the work of solidarity as bombs fall over Gaza and the number of innocent victims increases from day to day. Mid-February, IIRE will hold it Palestine Seminar, bringing together progressive activists from several Arab countries and Israel, as well as experts and activists dealing with the Middle East from Europe, North America and the Philippines. IIRE relies on donations from its friends in order to provide travel grants to activists from the Arab world and Asia, and to organise translation between English, French and Arabic. If you would like to help facilitate this gathering of progressive forces, in order to develop a radical alternative to imperialism, genocide and religious fundamentalism, kindly use the link below to donate. Every donation is appreciated.

En Amérique Latine, si l’on excepte Cuba, il y a en ce moment trois grandes catégories de gouvernements. En premier lieu, les gouvernements de droite, alliés de Washington, jouent un rôle actif dans la région et occupent une position stratégique : le gouvernement d’Alvaro Uribe en Colombie, Alan Garcia au Pérou et Felipe Calderon à Mexico.
