France, FA, Le Monde Libertaire n°1771 - Mediterranean
anarchists meeting: statement (fr, it) [machine translation]
We are here today in Tunisia, we, activists from different countries of the Mediterranean,
believing in the ability of peoples to free themselves from the authority of the capital
and, through their own efforts and economic self-management, policy, social and trade
union without supervision or authority to guide them in their liberation project. ---- We
meet, organizations, movements and libertarian groups, anarchists, non-authoritarian, in a
first step to a shared advocacy work, deeper and more comprehensive in world and not only
in the Mediterranean area. ---- We meet as the world endures the atrocity of the
capitalist system and its security, political, military, cultural and media exploiting the
emergence of social movements and popular uprisings in the majority of Mediterranean
countries with the aim of peoples increasingly drowning in debt and looting their property
and resources for the benefit of a minority. bands of hungry capitalists
We meet while most of our countries suffer the emergence of religious terrorism phenomena,
fascism and racism not only kill people and are at the service of imperialist plunder
policies - even if their speech claim otherwise - but also sow where they settle, death,
destruction and fear of any real social change.
We are meeting while the first countries to experience the social protest and having
brought down dictatorships experienced a terrible regression and dangerous skid to a new
military and security dictatorship that began in complete obedience to the service of
capitalism as was the case of the people who lived a revolutionary movement such as
Algeria, Morocco and others.
We are meeting today for that a number of rebel militants demanding freedom endure
surveillance, oppression, arrests, imprisonment, torture, and direct shooting death under
the cover of "general security" and "public interest" and "the fight against terrorism."
We meet today as the majority of people living under the umbrella of the so-called
"democracy" of "democratic transition" and elections relating only strips holding the
money, media and weapons and start, whatever their ideological affiliations, political and
currents of thought in the service of the capitalist system preserving its interests.
We meet today at a time when the right ascension is everywhere in the world, announcing
regression and back to the box of racism and ethnic discrimination.
In this situation which is characterized by perseverance duality and resistance oppression
on one side and on the other, movements, organizations , groups and individuals united in
Tunisia from 27 to 29 March, insist on the following:
1. The union of libertarian forces in the Mediterranean area in the clash of the policy of
oppression and exploitation adopted by States against the peoples.
2. The union and coordination in the confrontation of all forms of extremism whatever
their denominations and religious references, ethnic or other, which could paralyze the
will of the people to be free, and to break away from the authority of capitalism .
