Mainstream pundits and media commentators see the crisis in US-Turkey relations and the collapse of the Turkish currency as a result of Turkey's refusal to hand over to the US an American Evangelical priest. The analysis here shows that the roots of the conflict in times of crisis, uncertainty and hegemonic instability, go far beyond political epiphenomena. The US, a declining superpower, is trying to use the power of the dollar as a weapon to punish Turkey and other disobedient actors in the international system. ... ganzer Artikel lesen / Kommentar hinzufügen

A sharp increase in fuel prices on Wednesday 6 September will hit the working class and poor hardest. The official reasons for the price hike are rising crude oil costs and the weak Rand. Government tax is also rising. Energy Minister Mamoloko Kubayi claims 4.6 cents a litre will go towards salary increases for petrol station workers. The reality is rising prices get passed directly onto ordinary people by, for example, increases in taxi fares and food prices. ... ganzer Artikel lesen / Kommentar hinzufügen

Azzardo alcune riflessioni di tipo filosofico ed esistenziale, quindi politico. La realtà, che supera puntualmente ogni più fervida immaginazione, ispira un'elaborazione critica di straordinaria attualità storica. Il sistema creato dalla borghesia capitalista ha predicato nel mondo, a decorrere dal secondo dopoguerra, quella che è la religione più diffusa e vincente di ogni tempo e luogo: la fede cieca ed incondizionata nel mercato, nel totem della finanza. Il culto idiota e mondano del denaro e del successo. Il feticismo della merce e del profitto. La morale utilitarista dell’avere e dell’apparire ad ogni costo in luogo dell’essere, sacrificando tutto e tutti. Il corollario finale è l’avvento di una sottocultura di massa improntata al consumismo esasperato, acritico ed alienante, all’edonismo ebete, egoista e conformista. Quella che nell’età contemporanea è l’ideologia più ottusa ed onnipotente, una mentalità assai pervasiva e totalitaria, più feroce e persuasiva di qualsiasi tipo di fascismo e di assolutismo che si sia mai visto nella storia millenaria dell’umanità. Negli ultimi decenni, alle popolazioni del mondo occidentale si è imposto uno stile di vita iperconsumista: hanno bombardato i cervelli per convincere la gente che bisognava lavorare e produrre al massimo per guadagnare e consumare il più possibile, con il risultato che gli individui sono nevrotici, insoddisfatti ed infelici... ... ganzer Artikel lesen / Kommentar hinzufügen

La pataleta que protagonizaron por un ajuste franciscano en impuestos desnuda el alcance de su “Soy Capaz”: autobombo con una campaña publicitaria que convoca reconciliación, pero nada que comprometa su más grosero interés inmediato. Su aporte a la construcción de la paz se contrae a la promesa de enganchar en su firma a algún desmovilizado. Por presumir de dar el empleo que nunca crearon en respuesta a los favores tributarios recibidos una y otra vez. Ni bien se anunciaron medidas para llenar el hueco de $12,5 billones abierto por los regalos concedidos a los ricos en la reforma tributaria de 2012, protestó Luis Carlos Sarmiento, potentado de US$16.000 millones que ocupa el puesto 56 entre los más acaudalados del orbe. Se le oyó reclamar airado el día mismo en que se hacía, de un pastorejo, con $2,5 billones en la bolsa de Nueva York. Como si no le bastara con el poder de su hombre tras el trono, el superministro Néstor Humberto Martínez. También le pareció inconveniente la reforma a María Mercedes Cuéllar, cabeza de una banca glotona que colma sus arcas exprimiendo a los colombianos y expropiando a usuarios de las voraces UPAC. Poco dijo José Félix Lafaurie, portavoz de los señores de la tierra, porque ellos no pagan impuestos.

The welfare state has been under pressure since the mid-1980s and the onset of neoliberal economic policies across Europe. Capital has used the current crisis to intensify this pressure further. In Southern Europe, this is often directly enforced through the Troika (European Union, European Central Bank, and International Monetary Fund) in exchange for bailout packages, but in other countries such as the UK too, drastic cuts are justified by reference to increasing national debt and the global financial crisis. Trade unions and civil society organizations have struggled hard to defend the welfare state, but it has been a defensive struggle all the way and many aspects have already been lost. Trade union rights have been curbed in many countries, key industries such as telecommunications and postal services privatized and core services such as health and education increasingly marketized. Full employment policies have been a thing of the past for quite some time. In this blog post, I will reflect on the nature and contents of the welfare state and the possibilities of defending its achievements. ... ganzer Artikel lesen / Kommentar hinzufügen

“The international community is so screwed up they’re letting Haitians run Haiti.” –Luigi R. Einaudi, US career diplomat, member of the Council on Foreign Relations and former Assistant Secretary General at the Organization of American States Haitian author and human rights attorney Ezili Dantò heard Luigi R. Einaudi make this shocking comment in 2004, as Haiti was about to celebrate its 200 years of independence with its first democratically elected President, Jean-Bertrand Aristide. Apart from his efforts to raise the minimum wage and other social measures for the majority of Haitians living in extreme poverty, Aristide planned to nationalize his country’s resources, a move which meant more money for Haitians and less for multinationals. One month later, in the name of the “international community”, Aristide was overthrown in a coup d’état orchestrated by the U.S., France and Canada. Today, the “international community” is running Haiti again, colonial style. ... ganzer Artikel lesen / Kommentar hinzufügen

Création de la première globalisation qui a fait suite à la « découverte » de l’Amérique en 1492, soit 71 ans après le voyage de l’amiral chinois Zheng He (1) en 1421, Haïti constitue en même temps une rupture avec le mouvement de subjugation et de contrôle des peuples par l’Occident chrétien. De la route de la soie empruntée par Marco Polo en 1271 à celle des épices liant l’Europe, l’Afrique et l’Asie va succéder le commerce triangulaire reliant l’Europe, l’Afrique et l’Amérique. Pour des raisons sociohistoriques, Haïti n’a pas pu ouvrir ses frontières pour accueillir les Blancs au cours des 18e et 19e siècles, comme ce fut le cas avec les grandes migrations qui ont contribué au développement de pays tels que les Etats-Unis d’Amérique. Très tôt, des débats ont eu lieu au sein des élites haïtiennes sur l’octroi du droit de propriété aux Blancs.

La deuda panameña está creciendo a una velocidad que para la mayoría de los observadores pronto nadie podrá controlar. El actual gobierno – y sus asesores en Wall Street - sostiene que la deuda no constituye un riesgo en la medida en que la economía (medido por el producto interno bruto) crece a un ritmo igual o superior. Ambos crecen a una tasa anual del 10 por ciento. Obviamente, cuando la economía se desinfle y deje de crecer, Panamá ya no será un cliente interesante para los prestamistas. Nadie nos querrá prestar.
