What can not be allowed to Foster

Pseudoscience and obscurantism continue in the University of Granada .

C omo promised , creationists have returned to the University ... and through the front door. There have been talks with titles such as " experience of faith in public life " or " Evolution: random order, have focused on topics such as: sexual abstinence before marriage, the "grave" problem of "family" in Spain (what they mean by family), and of course the clever design that gives the evolution of man.

Since these courses are given for the support of the University in their facilities and get free credits for them. Today some students have returned to protest against, in a peaceful protest and (almost) silent (I wish I had been at all), the last of the papers of the second round.

But nothing will change tomorrow ... or worse, you have only to read what the next course of Seminar Newman, the " Course for Education and Development affectivity" (click and tremble). Surely promises to be a real orgy of dogmatic nonsense, and I venture that homophobic ( not be the first time ) ... but the University of Granada still be allowed.

Again ... this is what can not afford, at least not in college.

"A billion dollars to save the world economy." Crisis summit in London (Joachim Bischoff)

Joachim Bischoff (Our Flag, No. 226, vol. IV, 2010)

The group composed of major world economic powers (the G20) has agreed a package of measures to combat financial crisis and economically. The summit host, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, more broadly interpreted that agreement as follows: "Is there a new world order and we are entering a new era of international cooperation." But clearly, this is an exaggeration.

At the conference, outlined a series of principles for reform of the financial system through for greater regulation of banks, the hedge funds and compensation of executives. It is not clear what concrete steps. Also left unresolved the question of how they will eliminate loans and toxic securities. The IMF, based on the opinion of many economists, has stressed this point as an important prerequisite in the fight against financial crisis.

What concrete results can be displayed? For starters, about 500,000 million dollars more to the budget of the IMF and SDR 250,000 million. In addition, a package has been approved for commercial financing and expanded lines of credit from development banks. All these measures amount to 1.1 trillion dollars. The extension of credit lines, no doubt, contribute to stabilizing the world economy, but its practical implementation will require some time.

For many years, there is a gap between the pompous pronouncements on the peaks and their practical realization. Although some progress was made, the change would mark a new era still produced and, of course, not the London Summit. The latest statements are made mostly of promises will be forgotten soon be broken without an apology or, at best, simply suffer from a lack of content. For policy makers who express the most important thing is to convey to voters and financial markets the message they are trying to find a way to end the crisis together.

- What is the current situation?

The economic crisis that erupted in 2007 has expanded, from bounded field of mortgages-that is, home loans, to a global crisis of financial and credit sectors. Currently, there is no denying that we also face a significant drop in the real economy, in other words, also to industry and services and trade and are experiencing enormous economic downturn.

The thesis of a severe global recession, but that after all is only the end of a cycle, even deeper, is based on a mistaken notion of social development. In this case, we face a grave crisis. In my opinion, debating whether it is a normal systemic crisis or the collapse of the capitalist economy is hardly enlightening. Therefore, I prefer the term "crisis of the century", which is comparable in many respects to the global economic crisis of the 1930s (1).

However, unlike what happened late 1920, the reaction to this split in the structure of monetary and capital accumulation has not been normally cut income and establish financial policies and fiscal policies in public budgets. That capitalist societies reach a situation of deflation and depression will depend largely on the size and type of intervention.

to address the crisis of the century will require at least one or two periods of an economic cycle (4 to 6 years). Programs to combat the crisis that unfolded in late 2008 are decisive in determining the duration and the course of the economic crisis. Although they are much more suitable than those used in the 1930's, do not cover everything you need. The administration of adequate doses of anti-crisis measures is blocked by the fear of the negative consequences of an offensive use of public funds. Keynes pointed out, quite rightly, that "The long-term perspective is leading to error in everyday issues. Economists (and politicians) take the easy way out when they say, in turbulent times, the waters return to their course when it has passed the storm. " For the moment, there are indications that the storm of the crisis is subsiding and there are still possibilities of influencing its course.

- The twin strategy of the political left.

Basically, the political left has to follow a dual strategy: first, it is necessary to recall a political hegemony and relegated to a marginal position neoliberalism, that the crisis has been deprived of its economic and social base for political action at . Secondly, from this base, it can promote the creation of a solidarity economy with a new relationship between the market and social regulation / public.

In his statement on the programs of economic revival in Germany, Heiner Flassbeck economist concludes that: "Germany is facing the toughest economic period since World War II. You do not see that the business cycle will level off or self-stabilizing in the near future. Unlike in previous crises, there are no spaces and economic sectors in the world that are growing and can counteract depression. Germany is now more susceptible to a global recession by its exorbitant rate of exports and weak domestic demand, which adds to the decline for years, real wages. [...] In the spatial dimension of global, time is added, which is decisive: the more prolonged the downturn, the greater the momentum and strength is gained. The decrease becomes stagnant, recession and stagnation in the recession into a depression in the long term. At the same time, inflation, which until recently was considered the main problem through a radical change in significant and rapid price increases can become deflationary trends, which in an instant can cause a real deflation. The financial market crisis and the economic cycle are negative feedbacks. [...] And there are many who continue to ignore the key problem of a crisis. What we are experiencing is not a normal cyclical regression, which happens every few years, but a rapid fall in global investment activity, because in all the world during the financial crisis and afterwards, the relationship of prices, crucial for investors, has changed dramatically and has done at breakneck speed "(Flassbeck 2009). This assessment can be applied to other the major capitalist countries.

- Tasks that result.

From this outline of the "Crisis of the Century" come the following tasks:

1. We are faced with an insolvent financial system and a troubled banking system which requires recapitalization . At present, the dominant idea is that using public funds or guarantees, can be infused into the title stripped of its former value market value. Marx was making fun of the illusory concept to overcome a financial crisis. In times of crisis, reducing the financial volume that had previously been disproportionately inflated. For this reason, the nationalization of financial institutions is not a solution in itself can only be taken clear steps to the organized distribution of the loss in value, among which include the corrections in the stock price of securities of all kinds, and the outstanding loan repayments, which can not be paid. The idea that recovery is possible through capital grants and guarantees of the state is a mistake and only serves to prolong the adjustment process caused by the crisis.

2. In the end, this is an economic cycle is coming down at the same time worldwide as rapidly as in the 1930's, or even more. In a production system which generated economic growth through the expansion of credit, liquidity becomes the central element when the bubble bursts and devalued mortgage securities on a large scale. If the consistency of the reproductive process is based on loans and suddenly, the loans disappear and only the cash account is necessarily lead to a crisis with the sudden demand means of payment. In essence, the financial crisis resulting from the loss of most immediate value of assets and securities of all types (ie, the rights to future social wealth). The crisis is established when one can no longer pay their "assets" and should pay with their money. In times of crisis, the role of money as payment becomes suddenly obvious: the payment chain is interrupted, for the maintenance of liquidity becomes the most important principle.

3. Be relieved of the debt to various groups of borrowers, who include private households that include the U.S., the UK, Ireland, Spain, Greece, etc. Until there is balance in the medium term the differences between wages / income and social gap fill, the reform of the financial system will remain a dead letter. One of the main causes of bubbles in financial markets is the concentration of social wealth. Therefore, a necessary condition for stabilization is a substantial correction of the unequal distribution of income and property. Furthermore, it must stop and reverse the privatization of core elements of social security (pensions, health, education).

4. It is essential to move towards a new financial and economic system. The crisis has shown that the administration of the market capital without political regulation and democratic control because, once again, a social catastrophe. For this reason, democratic control and international cooperation are needed. Financial supervision at national and international cooperation between the institutions of the regulatory and supervisory authorities, in particular within the EU must be strengthened and democratized. Worldwide, it is necessary to set clear limits on the free market and liberalized unlimited mobility of capital. In a new international treaty to overcome the weaknesses of the postwar Bretton Woods, financial stability, the fiscal justification, social justice and sustainability must take precedence over the free movement of capital, goods and services. It must guarantee social rights and the historical achievements of workers. In the deepest economic crisis since the 1930's, caused by the collapse of the financial system, the prevention of risks in the system and the proposed new regulation of the financial sector have come to occupy a central place in the current political agendas. It is true, no doubt, the assumption that without a stabilization of the financial sector, will not materialize a lasting economic recovery.

However, the fact remains that if not stopped the collapse of the economy and not achieved a stabilization of all the social reproductive process, there will be new regulation of financial and monetary system, national or international. Therefore, you should criticize the measures implemented since the spring of 2007, consisting of allocating all its resources to the financial system. Through subsidies and government guarantees will not be forgotten that inevitably have to resize the financial sector. In addition, the recovery operations focus heavily on financial institutions in trouble, forgetting the whole image. In the end, most support programs for the real economy have a sufficient size. Specifically, the approach social infrastructure (social overhead capital) leads to the neglect of labor market policies and to eliminate bias against social programs and the eradication of poverty. Meanwhile, the president of the U.S. Federal Reserve, Bernanke, insists that it requires a strategy that encompasses the financial system as a whole and not just its parts. Before a meeting of finance ministers from the G-20 and G-20 summit in April, with a point on the agenda to discuss a global framework for monitoring the financial system, Bernanke outlines the vision of America: First, it is necessary to get rid of dependence on financial institutions of "systemic importance" in other words, in future it should be possible to phase out gradually all financial institutions in an orderly manner. Secondly, it must radically overhaul the financial infrastructure. This will affect systems, regulations and contracts that organize trade mechanisms, payment and financial transaction markets. Thirdly, it is important to develop a monitoring policy and accounts that are not pro-cyclical effects. Fourth, consider developing an independent authority whose task would be to detect and designate systemic risks. A new internationally oriented policy could help prevent the worst consequences and thus lead to a better functioning of national and global economies. After considering the processes of the crisis and its causes, will return to these efforts to reform the financial system.

- The parallel dimension of the action.

In the near future, which will make decisions concerning the depth, duration and the future prospects of the crisis, come into play four dimensions parallel to the action:

1. Public funds and intervention to support the crippled financial sector:

In recent years the credit boom, the rate of investment outside the traditional banking systems increased dramatically. "The importance of risky investments, long-term and relatively devoid of cash, financed through short-term obligations made many media institutions as always tended to resort to banks, but without protective measures such as deposits security, which are available to the banking system to reduce those risks. [...] However, the fact that the expansion of traditional bank loan was not at all sufficient to offset the decline in lending volume as a result of crash shadow banking "(Krugmann 2009: 189).

In practice, we will not be able, after some zigzags, to prevent the nationalization of large complex financial system, because you can not achieve stability, and an organized distribution of losses in any way.

2. Public funds and state intervention to cushion the fall of the real economy.

For now, the capitalist countries have not addressed what is necessary. The programs have a dimension too limited or too contradictory. The exception would be the package against the crisis of the People's Republic of China.

3. Since the financial and economic crisis has assaulted the countries from the periphery, it is necessary to find a plan Global bailout to alleviate the situation, which confronts developing countries of Eastern Europe and Asia with serious problems.

4. It is also important to develop a new financial architecture, although not yet see the end of the tunnel in the crisis. The fact is that the neoliberal economic and political elites in power have abandoned its guidance, due to the impact of the crisis-driven processes, which does not mean they are ready for an effective policy against the crisis. It is true that has not been completely crushed neoliberalism, or as an ideology, nor as a hegemonic project. However, their social power to determine and impose agendas interpretation has been seriously damaged. The reason for this apparent weakness lies in the strength of the political enemy on the left side of the spectrum, but in the development of social reproduction caused by the crisis.

face the contradiction that is still prevalent neoliberal interpretation, we find strong empirical evidence of an important process of global economic downturn and reports of mass protests, more and more numerous. The most recent and prominent example is Ireland. Not much remains of the much-vaunted prosperity of the Celtic Tiger. However, we can not speak of a resistance movement or radical international outcry. More conditions are paradigmatic in Germany most people consider the economic and financial crisis is a threat that has not yet reached its full potential. Therefore, evidence from several months ago, point to a bleak future. Most people are very alarmed by the development of the crisis. Since September 2008, when the crisis peaked with the collapse of investment bank Lehman Brothers, the crisis has been well rooted in the everyday consciousness of most citizens (Kocher 2009: 5).

Most have the impression that it has no way of judging what is happening. "About 78% are convinced that the financial system has become so dull that completely escapes the understanding of citizens. At the same time, most are aware that the consequences of the crisis, which they believe is responsible States together, are enormous for Germany. Only 2% of the population believes that the crisis really does not concern Germany, while only 3% are not worried. The group of people still react with calm and believe that the consequences are limited amounts to about one-fifth of the population and is composed mainly of young people. The vast majority of people believe that events scared and wonder what is come. Although only a small minority have put their money in speculative investments, to 52% of the population are worried that their deposits are safe. In particular, the older generation is alarmed: 60% of those over 60 years has been concerned recently about the safety of your property, as 58% of people between 45 and 58. Only the generation under 30 years, most of which has not yet been able to save a lot, consider that the financial crisis is not something that directly affects their financial situation "(Kocher 2009: 5).

This context, the hypothesis that maintains the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation we are open to a historical situation is probably overly optimistic (see this issue: Contribution of the Institut für Gesellschaftsanalyse der Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung, and Institut für Gesellschaftsanalyse der Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung 2009: 8).

- Paradigm shift.

In my opinion, the hypothesis of a paradigm shift among the powerful elites in power is correct. So far most of these elites interpreted the intervention of the state as a mere emergency measure, to be temporary, in the near future would allow for the resumption of old policies of privatization and deregulation. However, some critical minds raise questions about the impact it will have everything in the everyday consciousness and political stability.

No doubt the banks are suffering a systemic crisis in most capitalist countries. Investments and government guarantees are not enough by themselves to save the mountain of debt in a process marked by inflation. For fear of repercussions on the entire process of social reproduction, the bulk of the political class is working hard in the public finances, which also means future income to save tax-credit securities and property that are losing value.

- the only alternative.

After a general nationalization of the entire sector, we can organize a process to eliminate debt and arrange the titles in such a way that takes into account the macroeconomic and social needs and the cancellation of debt obligations in accordance with the principles of social justice. Do not forget that part of the enormous credit boom is based on pensions and other savings, such as stocks of large segments of the population. Due to pressure from the crisis, including the financial world calls for reform normal. However, as always happens in similar situations, the debate surrounding them is not without controversy. It all depends whose interests prevail. When bankers demand the intervention of the state, want to nationalize the losses but the profits remain in private hands. When bankers talk about reforms mean a (new) regulation of parts and management of the crisis in the short term, in an attempt to preserve the neo-liberal rules of the game and make sure everything "business as usual" as quickly as possible. For the good of most citizens, it requires a real change of paradigm: the financial markets should contribute to social justice, economic stability and sustainable development. We can not simply return next year to the status quo ante.

Living Together: Citizens against Racism and Xenophobia. Discourses on immigration and ethnic minorities in adult lower-middle class

M ª Ángeles Cea D'Ancona, Michael S. Valles Martínez (Ikuspegi - Basque Immigration Observatory)

The economic crisis was also present in the GD3, consisting of adult lower-middle class. His speeches were characterized by arguments clearly marked by competition and the experience of cohabitation (difficulty of living). Almost all of them were neighbors, or co-ancestry immigrants or foreigners. Both primary ingredients and their speeches can be seen in Table 3, which provides a snapshot of what was said during the sessions of discussion groups.

(Click on images to enlarge)

The discussion held in the GD3 was characterized by, first, be very sharp and marked by feelings of discrimination (competition) and the experience of living with the immigrants in neighborhoods and work settings. Emphasized the authority conferred on them for having lived with immigrants: "You have to live with the immigrants directly to speak with authority." Second, imposing cultural adaptation and identifying barriers to coexistence in terms of behavior of different ethnic groups. Third, by their desire for a stricter observance of the social order by the government.

Rather than positive aspects of migration (increased labor, cultural exchange), emphasized the negative aspects: unemployment, crime, reduction of wages, public assistance, the law protects them ... In the GD3 held in Spain , the negative arguments prevailed to the point where someone said, "But here there is absolutely no one who will defend people who are not English?". His speech was critical of immigration, while understandable and even sympathetic at times. As in GD1, it was stressed that immigrants know their rights that their obligations and, as in GD2, some of them include the image of immigrants taking advantage of state aid and subtracting job opportunities: "Do not know their obligations, but they know their rights," "have preference over us." And self-confessed racism: "Now I say:" You become racist, "referring to the discrimination felt when compared with immigrants or the experience of cohabitation:" Most of us are racist when we live with them. "

In Spain and Portugal, to justify their complaints about certain minorities, participants attempt to legitimize the basis of the perceived hostility or closure of immigrants or ethnic minorities (both Spain and Portugal):

"They [the blacks] are very racist. They are very racist among themselves and with respect to us. We are more racist than we are with them "" They [the Ukrainians] are cold. They have feelings, even expression ";" suspicious. Well, yes they are [the Chinese] suspicious of truth "(GD3: Portugal)

But while these were the GD in which memory is more reminiscent of past and present strategy approach to immigration. Especially in Spain.

EFE (google.com)

The Supreme Court of Justice (CSJ) authorized the extradition of Venezuelan Walid Makled, but will be the president of Colombia, Juan Manuel Santos, who define if sent to Venezuela or the United States, countries that call for different crimes, local media reported today.

The Venezuelan of Syrian origin, also known as "The Turk", was arrested Aug. 19 in the Colombian city of Cucuta, capital of Norte de Santander department, bordering Venezuela, and since then is imprisoned in the Combita prison, in the department of Boyacá (center).

Makled is wanted by Venezuelan justice for drug trafficking and money laundering from drug trafficking, conspiracy and murder.

United States also is sought by drug-related crimes.

on November last year, just as did the balance of his first hundred days in office, President Santos said that fulfill his word with his Venezuelan counterpart Hugo Chávez, who promised to deliver the drug dealer said. At that time

Santos said: "I gave my word to Chavez that, once take legal procedures, we will deliver to the Venezuelan authorities (a Makled) ", then one of the three most wanted drug traffickers in the world.

Saints also recalled that Venezuela's request for the extradition of Colombia Makled reached before the U.S.. UU.

Makled Garzón OAS verify the disarmament of paramilitary

L. Ayllón, A. Vengoechea (abc.es)

The National Court judge, Baltasar Garzon, work as a consultant to the Organization of American States (OAS) in the verification process of disarming the paramilitaries, according to the Colombian newspaper "Weather." The news of the engagement by the OAS, advanced last month by ABC, was confirmed sources yesterday that agency in Washington, quoted by Efe.

The operation to find a job to judge in Colombia was conceived during the Ibero-American summit in Mar del Plata (Argentina), in early December last year, at a meeting between Minister of Foreign Affairs, Trinidad Jimenez, and his colleague Colombian Ángela Holguín. Spain will finance the hiring of Garzón, through its contribution to the OAS for the peace process in Colombia, which until now has been a million per year.

A few details need to be translated in two months, the judge will have an office in Colombia, from which work in the Mission Support for the OAS sent to the country in 2005 to verify the paramilitary disarmament. Then, the demobilization of 10,000 paramilitaries, known as death squads in the nineties fighting the guerrillas, was controversial. Many turned to rearm, a few were reinserted properly and most involved with other criminal gangs.

- Controversy.

The arrival of Garzón, Colombia appreciated by advising communities in their complaints of human rights violations, was not well received this time. While it is true that Garzón could handle key issues such as land restitution to victims of violence, from January, when it emerged that work with the OAS in Colombia, their presence did not like.

"Judge Baltasar is a question that bears a court injunction suspended by English courts (...) is investigated by a conduct which has branded the Colombian government and has caused a stir in the institutions' said the attorney Alejandro Ordóñez. "

burned Impressions from Tahrir Square (Willy Meyer)

Willy Meyer (left-unida.es)

March 20 the Egyptian people voted in a referendum to amend or articles of the present constitution to begin signaling pathway Revolution Tahrir Square: the end of the Mubarak era.

Muslim Brotherhood (Islamic liberals), the Army and the remnants of the old regime still very influential, called the vote. Young people, the broad left, unions, and liberal center, ie, the protagonists of the revolution, defended the negative feedback to stress the need for a genuine constitutional process. The result was a very low participation of 41%, and total absence of international verification-77, 2% in favor of the amendments and 22.8 against.

What reading can make this work?

On 19, 20 and March 21 participated, along with the staff of the group Mireia Rovira, on a visit to Cairo as part of the European Parliament delegation. This visit allowed me to exchange views with the protagonists of the revolution and those who want to extend it to prevent a substantial change.

Interviews obviated active representation of the Revolution of Tahrir. The official agenda included meetings with:

- United States Ambassador
- EU Ambassadors
- Amre Moussa, Secretary General of the Arab League
- Prime Minister Essam Sharaf
- Minister of Foreign Affairs, El Araby
- Pope Shenouda of the Coptic Church
- The Muslim Brotherhood
- El Ghad
Party - Party At Wassat
- Tagammu Party

There was only one meeting with the representatives of civil society and human rights defenders human (without the presence of trade unions) that allowed to receive ratings for the situation in Egypt during and after the Revolution.

meetings were off the official agenda which allowed me to know the keys of the Revolution and the referendum.

held meetings with a delegation of the Communist Party of Egypt (Mohamed Salah Adly and Fakruldeen) and a representative of the Association (Hamdy Hussein), and also with Samir Amin.

- The Revolution.

In 2006, in the Nile Delta, the industrial city of Al-Mahalla, was paralyzed by a general strike called by trade unionists unions outside of the regime Association formed a committee.

The strike spread to other cities in 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. The trade union committee, along with youth and others participated in demonstrations in Tahrir Square set-up shop from scratch.

The social base of the revolution was silenced by the big international media companies.

The convergence of workers' struggles with youth, with a liberal and democratic middle class was creating the conditions for genuine democratic uprising but a well organized party leadership.

The demands for change were universal demands of freedom, rights social, employment creation and fair wages, a new Constitution and the dismantling of the regime. Religion, as in Tunisia did not appear or tangentially.

Youth, which represents 63% of the Egyptian population (the average age is 24 years), democratic, anti-imperialist and leftist was the catalyst for an unprecedented call in Tahrir Square, as speaker of demonstrations in Egypt. A million people were mobilized within days spent fifteen million.

Keep in mind that there were no legal parties opposing the regime. The outlawed Marxist left is highly fragmented. The Communist Party has only been legal from 1922 to 1924 and is now, since 13 March when they have decided to come to the surface.

A "National Committee for Change, which gathered around the front anti-Mubarak, was the driving force of the fall of Mubarak. In the Committee participated, among other forces, the PC, who set up a radio to broadcast live from Tahrir Square. According to Samir Amin

, this movement was formed: a youth

-imperialist, democratic, but with little ideological sympathy with the PC and other Marxists.
-democratic liberal middle classes but not imperialism.
-unofficial unions.

Faced with that block or movement, the Egyptian Armed Forces, allies of the United States of America (1,300 million dollars are annually) along with the Muslim Brotherhood (tolerated by Mubarak), the middle class Muslim fanatic and the state apparatus established survivors strategy after the fall of Mubarak to contain the revolutionary impulse, thus maintaining its hegemony.

- the referendum.

February 13, the Supreme Council of the armed forces suspended the constitution after the resignation of Mubarak.

March 20 referendum was organized on nine constitutional amendments proposed by the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces. These amendments proposed to reduce the presidential term from six to four years, the establishment of a maximum of two presidential terms for the same person and that the President appoint one or more Vice Presidents within 60 days after his inauguration. Perhaps most significant is that these amendments are charting the way for a specific transition process: it aims to conduct parliamentary and presidential elections in the next 6 months. The amendments also provided for the election of a committee of 100 scholars who will be responsible for writing a new constitution, although it is unclear who will select this committee.

In a country where parties and unions are still illegal, with an Army that continues to direct and control the situation, the call for a referendum to "tweak" the Constitution of the regime became for some sectors of Egypt's best start to slow down and control it from the Revolution the wreckage of Mubarak.

The protagonists of the revolution were positioned against the reform require a constitutional process in front of the block itself (Muslim Brotherhood, army and remnants of the regime and Mubarak's National Democratic Party, with support from the U.S.).

The victory of the other with a low turnout indicates that the scenario is being very open and to the extent that social and political forces organizers of the Revolution are legalized and organized, the way to a New Constitution will remain open. That is what Samir Amin said a day before the referendum.

Ahmed Maher, very young leader of the Movement April 6, we conveyed his intention to travel to Europe to report on the Revolution. In fact, we indicated that travel to Granada (Spain) at an event organized by the Diputación de Granada.

- The European Union newsprint.

Like the U.S., the European Union was a collaborator with Mubarak to hold an Association Agreement with the objective of ensuring free trade without requiring compliance with human rights as conditions of Article 2.

The current focus of the European Union and most of the caucuses is mentor and influence the process of change for Avoiding a progressive, leftist and anti-imperialist new Egyptian institutions.

is significant release of the President of the European Parliament, Poland's Jerzy Buzek, European Popular Party, which at the end of the visit of the delegation undertook to convey and facilitate the experiences of Central and Eastern Europe to society Egyptian civil.

Put another way, to contribute to prevent the advance of socialist ideas in Egypt.

Foundations of European parties will invest a lot of money to support the conservative forces, liberal and reactionary. This has been announced now.

think we @ s, as far as we can, we should do the same to help drive the revolution. Civil society tells us that they are producing arrests and torture by military and police.

Ragia Omram, the Youth Coalition of Tahrir Square, which was scheduled appearance before the European parliamentary delegation was unable to attend to be detained by the military on the day of the referendum vote. In Interview with Prime Minister Essam Sharaf I expressed my concern about these detentions and torture continue to occur. I replied that actually Ragia Omram was arrested and released at dawn and anyone interested to stop the arrests.

Paul Krugman and fairies

Àngels Martínez i Castells (Punts in Vista)

After hearing

Rodríguez Zapatero in the "competitiveness summit" and Artur Mas finished staging the Palace of Pedralbes ... after reading the report of CAREC and much mediocrity, I will discuss the translation of virtually all Krugman's article March 24 on the NYT . I think that gives us a basic Keynesian key to put us also in the European context ... and see if we can learn something serious.

"The Government of Portugal has just fallen into a dispute over austerity proposals. The Irish government bond yields have exceeded 10 percent for the first time. And the government recently revised the low economic forecasts and upward which had been developed on the projected deficit.

What do all these events have in common? All evidence suggests that cutting spending to a high unemployment rate is a mistake. Proponents predicted that the austerity cuts in spending would bring quick dividends in the form of increased confidence, and would be very few, if any came to have, adverse effects on growth and employment, but they were wrong .

is a pity, therefore, that these days will not be anyone who is a serious person in Washington, unless they profess allegiance to the same doctrine that fails so miserably Europe.

was not always so. Two years ago, with rising unemployment and large budget deficits - both consequences of the financial crisis - the most advanced country leaders seemed to understand that the problems had to be addressed in sequence, immediately trying to create jobs combined with a deficit reduction strategy over the longer term.

Why not cut the deficit immediately? Because tax increases and cuts in government spending further depress the economy, increasing unemployment. And the spending cuts in a deeply depressed economy is largely self-defeating, even in purely fiscal terms, the savings on the one hand are offset by lower revenues caused by the contraction of the economy. So

work now and later deficits, this was and is the right strategy. Unfortunately, it is a strategy that has been abandoned by phantom risks and illusory hopes. On the one hand, we are constantly repeating that if we reduce spending immediately going to end as Greece, which just can not borrow at exorbitant interest rates. On the other hand, we're told not to worry about the impact of spending cuts on employment because the fiscal austerity able to create employment by increasing confidence.

How was this story so far?

The so-called deficit hawks have been crying wolf coming in relation to U.S. interest rates more or less continuously since the beginning of the financial crisis, kidding about the significance of rises in interest rates. The truth is that interest rates have fluctuated, not by fear of debt, but by the degree of hope for economic recovery. But full recovery is still far away, is lower now than two years ago.

But America can not be completed as Greece? Yes, of course. If investors decide that we are a banana republic, with politicians unable or unwilling to confront the long-term problems, they will stop buying our debt. But this possibility does not depend on whether we punish ourselves with spending cuts in the short term.

Ask the Irish, whose government - after taking an unsustainable debt burden of bailing out banks impossible to control - sought to calm markets by imposing savage austerity measures on ordinary citizens. The same people calling for spending cuts in the United States applauded. "Ireland gives us a wonderful lesson in fiscal responsibility," said Alan Reynolds of the Cato Institute, adding that spending cuts had eliminated fears about the solvency of Ireland ... and predicted a rapid economic recovery.

That was in June 2009. Since then, interest rates on debt in Ireland has doubled, and the unemployment rate in Ireland has now reached 13.5 percent.

And then there's the British experience. As U.S. financial markets believed that Britain was solvent, and gave the possibility of applying the strategy of putting the policies of occupation, leaving the deficit later. But the government of Prime Minister, David Cameron, chose to move to the immediate austerity, believing that private spending would offset government cutbacks. As I say, Cameron's plan was based on the belief that the fairy of confidence would solve everything.

But that has not happened: British growth has stagnated, and the government has to fix up its deficit projections.

Which brings me back to what happens in the economic debate in Washington these days (...) with a political climate in which the deficit hawks want to punish the unemployed to oppose any action to address the budget problems long term. Although we know from what happens abroad, the fairy of the trust will not save us from the consequences of our folly. "

Crisis: Causes and Consequences

Editorial (Our Flag, No. 226, vol. IV, 2010)

The revolutionary left in Europe, where they are both the PCE and the United Left and particularly the European Left Party (IPP) since its inception in 2004, have been warning for years now, once warned the effects of the neoliberal model globalization began in 1989 following in the Washington Consensus, on the dangers of the formula under the Maastricht Treaty (1992). An economic model based on the triad of neoliberalism: a) reducing public budgets in all its dimensions, slimming the welfare state against the market with all kinds of privatization and cuts in public services and public infrastructure, b) all costs to implement the relocation of capital in all facets, from the tax until the social dumping, and c) the deregulation of labor to lower the overall wage bill and thus increase benefits somewhat offset the general downward trend in the rate of profit.

As you can understand is difficult to reconcile the intent of lowering the wage bill while increasing the consumption to output increasing production of goods. The contraction in demand this time accentuated by the nature of neoliberal globalization to include everyone. In this way this fall in available wage bill becomes a golden opportunity for so-called emerging economies such as China, India or Brazil, with very cheap labor force and in some cases under conditions of tight authoritarian control that prevents freedom association and thus the claims and wage growth, very cheap goods flooded regions in some capacity acquisition yet as they can be the European Union and the United States. The combination is devastating consequences for the economies from the time Fordism. Mass layoffs in whole sectors of production from automotive to textiles that worsen the overall situation of each country and the effect of desperately seeking the traditional sectors. From there to the "financial bubble" is a small step that began in 1989 with spectacular results at first. Indeed in 2007-8

bursts entire economic model to show the impossibility of its maintenance, its impracticality. Besides the purely economic dimensions of a crisis of overproduction this time we add other components to the crisis of the first decade of the century that confer its specificity. On the one hand be an energy crisis depletion and limitation in the use of fossil fuels. Entering a food crisis food markets of the future in addition to competing speculative roulette with the fate of growing areas to biofuels, which are combined with the consequences of climate change on crop losses. Ecological crisis to break completely the ability of nature to absorb increased emissions and increased in all facets of nature, the atmospheric greenhouse effect and climate change, the pedological land to accommodate increasing amounts of all types of materials waste water by turning the river networks on Earth and its oceans in real sewers of these contaminants with subsequent deterioration of the oceans, as in these moments with our Mediterranean Sea. The result of all this is the end of the biodiversity on which humanity itself depends. Not surprisingly, this cluster of adverse effects the recent economic crisis become a more consequential than that of 1929, which was strictly overproduction. Becomes the current crisis of civilization, values, the entire model.

The question behind all this and totally unlike our current crisis of reference of 1929 is precisely the cultural and ideological context of those facts. At that time was relatively recent the October Revolution and therefore an alternative to the failure of capitalism was the proposal from a planned economy and public where the capital-labor conflict is resolved in favor of work, meeting the needs of the people and not for the production of surplus value. That alternative was in the consciousness of the population, workers, and thus becomes the first order factor, to the point of carrying through Maynard Keynes to a compromise proposal between the pure liberal model in the style of Adam Smith and the Soviet revolution, to avoid such a revolution: he subsequently called the Welfare State (Keynesianism) that involved the use of huge publicly controlled amounts of capital to ensure full employment and social needs, but all within the logic of the capitalist model.

This time, thanks largely to the collapse and failure of the Soviet model of 1990 does not exist in the consciousness of European workers face a clear alternative to the economic crisis. Has been occurring since the last revolutionary explosion of the twentieth century, the 1968 French May and the Prague Spring, a gradual withdrawal of class consciousness to be housed exclusively in the nuclei more aware of the proletariat, their Communist parties , while social unfolded assimilation of the values \u200b\u200bof Keynesian capitalism. This shift in the social hegemony policy toward the values \u200b\u200bof consumerism and individualism leaves at this time of crisis of the capitalist model of society that is totally defenseless, helpless and worse, no feasible alternatives, on the contrary, at the foot of all kinds of populism. Any crisis of values, of civilization. Hence the need to reset the time required. Show that there is an alternative that is feasible, which is moving towards a proposal for more democracy, more freedom and all within the road to socialism. Reset also social and recovering fighting demonstrations as an instrument of pressure.

Living Together: European Citizens Against Racism and Xenophobia. Discourses on immigration and ethnic minority young upper-middle class

M ª Ángeles Cea D'Ancona, Michael S. Valles Martínez (Ikuspegi - Basque Immigration Observatory)

Young people are another social group affected by politically correct speech. Have traditionally been tolerant and pro-immigration and ethnic minorities. But the social context of economic crisis is creating xenophobic discourse, as seen in Table 2. In the Netherlands, for example, GD2 was the only group in which immigrants criticized for taking advantage, supposedly, of the welfare state. However, other participants in this discussion group countered these criticisms by saying that immigrants come to benefit from the facilities of its welfare state, but looking for better job opportunities and a better future. In Spain, the GD2 was the discussion group which placed more emphasis on the negative impact of immigration on the labor market. He blamed immigrants for rising unemployment and declining wages for "working for less money" and it undermines the employment prospects for Indigenous job seekers. The same arguments were heard in Portugal and other countries. The term "Problem" was used often when young people talked about immigration. The economic crisis also gave this group a long time to debate, as seen in Table 2.

both good and bad experiences with immigrants and other minorities affect their attitudes towards them. In Finland, have created an image of young people themselves tolerant and at the same time are aware of the contradictions in his own mind, which comes up in your contacts daily with immigrants. In the Netherlands, where the discussion focused on generalizations about the color of the skin, several participants noted that they (the younger generation) did not judge entire groups of immigrants for the (bad) behavior of some of them as did their parents and grandparents ("I think there is a huge difference between our generation and the previous generation. I think the older generation will make judgments based on that [the color] more easily. (...) Do not know how it happened, but I have the impression that we are more open about this issue. ") And in Portugal, although the first speech showed bias to personal relationships with people of other ethnic groups, most participants cited factors that hinder this possibility. Like the one hand stated that differences in cultural and religious phenotype were not important, but on the other hand they said that having a "culture" or different ethnicity made it difficult for people to find common ground on their interests and ways of being. In Sweden, each of the participants said they personally had no bias, but the society around you (the discourse of individual tolerance and Finland).

The "second generation" is mentioned repeatedly (in contrast to other GDs), probably because they had greater contact and closeness with the people who constitute the "second generation" (schools, universities, neighborhood ...). Were central themes of discussion: the economic crisis and employment prospects, the concentration of immigrants (or ethnic minorities), which do not favor the interaction with the locals, their barriers to integrate into working life by a lack of mastery of the language; their abuse of the welfare state and the rights of indigenous as opposed to foreigners. The complaint expressed by those most reluctant to Spain (for example) was that "immigrants have more rights The English "(reverse discrimination), and that" all aid going to them. " Unlike in the GD1, immigration was not considered "necessary" for economic development, but as harmful (unskilled labor to accept any job), and that only benefits employers. However, as in GD1, views contrary: "If the English really need to work, act as immigrants." There was a part of the GD more receptive to immigration than offset the above arguments with positive ones: our ancestors emigrated. Affirmative action plays social function of integration on the one hand there is also no problem of immigration (plurality of cultures and religions), the immigrants do not have to be blamed for the crisis.
