In July 2014, the law on social economy was adopted and widely acclaimed by the
cooperative movement and the media. Yet, we must take a critical look at its
implementation, which challenges some of the most progressive aspects of Scop. ---- ESS
now has a definition: it includes the "historical" actors (associations, mutuals,
cooperatives, etc.), but also "commercial companies that pursue socially useful purpose,
and who choose to s apply to themselves the principles of social economy ". In other
words, any company that has managed to produce a CSR report (Corporate Social
Responsibility) particularly brilliant: a little democracy here, a few male / female
equality and there, a profit distribution lichette and voila. ---- And Limagrain1, its GMO
and its 2 billion euros in revenue, it is also the ESS, yes, as a historical actor.
Fortunately there are Scop (cooperative and participatory society today), that has
statutes that seek to guarantee democracy in the enterprise, the equal distribution of
benefits, the limitation of capital income. Every year, it is subject to the "cooperative
review", which checks that it continues to fulfill the criteria necessary for its status.
On paper at least, it's tangible.
Financing Facility
But these statutes were challenged in the law in 2014 by two steps have yet been well
received by the cooperative movement. They come back almost on the principle "founder"
whereby wage earners must be a majority in Scop capital. So far you could get involved are
non-wage earners in the business but that should not hold more than 49% of capital.
The first measure is the boot Scop facilitating funding from: the device allows a company
to obtain the status despite the presence of a majority associated external capital. This
"transitional" status can last up to seven years. When the financier sells its shares to
wage earners after seven years, he may make a gain. It would be malicious, we would see
the transformation of the financial product in Scop ... The second measure allows the
creation of subsidiaries. A Scop, or members of any of them, can now be the majority in
votes and capital in another (the subsidiary so). In other words, the wage earners of the
subsidiary will have little influence on decisions, and even less with those of the parent
company.
This law thus departs - a little more - of the ideal of workers' self-managing production
groups with their work tool.
The "values" are not enough
Within the movement of Scop, the word light is "values." Cooperation, solidarity,
equality, short words which make dream. The problem is that everything suggests that these
values have more use than a standard concrete reality. In smaller entities, it is not
uncommon to hear a manager complaining that wage earners "do their hours and no more." The
question of the distribution of profits in favor of wage earners also a problem for them:
yes, how to better remunerate Cooperators, to be more involved in the business? Is that we
boss, we have responsibilities now, it must be valued!
Furthermore, there is no evidence that equal pay for men and women is more respected than
in traditional forms of business. Only 24% of Scop are managed by women. At the meetings,
seminars and representation, parity is not even mentioned.
Self-management is optional, and frankly, never on the agenda. Thus, Scop mainly function
like any slightly modern enterprise: participative regarding the identity of the company,
but one or an entrepreneur who manages the daily. And even if the leaders are elected
representatives and revocable stewardship really is not rotating.
Integrate circles of influence, rooms and business schools ...
The regional unions (local delegations of the General Confederation of scop, the flagship
organization of the movement) are not what is done more efficiently in terms of direct
democracy. Directors and administrators are elected representatives at annual general
meetings (usually unanimously). They then live out their mandate without ever discussing
their decisions with the Cooperators in the region, and they are not loaded es represent:
in fact, the CGScop is not a movement of Cooperators. It aims to promote and develop Scop.
The nuance is important because it arise very specific interests, those businesses that
need to gain market, to develop, to improve their competitiveness. Thus the objectives put
forward are integrating circles of influence, rooms and business schools ...
How to create new Scop? By making a major communication campaign for patrons who wish to
retire! From whom communicate otherwise? Still not unions!
Yet Scop are still dreaming. When the wage earners of the bookstore Les Volcans
Clermont-Ferrand to save their jobs, following the group's decision to close Chapter,
deciding to form themselves into Scop is a victory. When wage earners dismissal Fralib
create Scop es-IT and call their tea in 1336 in reference to numbers of days of struggle,
how not to be seen as a snub to a multinational?
And despite the ESS Act of 2014, despite the excesses of Scop, there is a whole network of
small structures who practice self-management, which have the objective of achieving their
work away from profitability requirements and which make up the best with the existence of
the capitalist system which they can not escape this time. The Fair has the
self-management of Toulouse birthplace Recota (cooperative work autogestions Network),
which could perhaps ultimately impose a clear voice self-management in the movement, which
asserts that the class struggle exists, and that the Cooperators are the wage earners' side.

Reading through the mainstream media coverage of the climate negotiations in Paris
(CoP21), one could hardly understand the event as anything other than ‘a real turning
point in human history’ (Irish Times). The heroic work of the French delegates had
achieved ‘the world’s greatest diplomatic success’ (the Guardian), indeed the deal was not
short of ‘a major leap for mankind’ (quote from summit leaders). ---- The negotiations are
presented almost uniformly as an overwhelming success of international compromise – a
strong response to an important problem. Criticism, qualifications or broader discussion
make it only into the last few lines if at all. ---- Regrettably this framing of the CoP21
outcome is wildly inappropriate. While true that the world’s governments have officially
agreed to limit warming to 1.5°C, a justifiable target, the plans to back up what would be
a dramatic emissions reductions are brazenly absent. The published plans instead add up to
a total warming of almost twice the professed aim – an estimated warming of between 2.2°C
and 3.4°C, well beyond the level of warming necessary to trigger cataclysmic climate change.
To anyone with even a vague interest in climate change, one would think this point would
occupy primacy – our leaders have signed a deal guaranteeing climatic destruction, have
lied about it and are now expecting us to celebrate it. Alas the sophistry of modern media
is used to quell and pacify, for fear a truly informed public may be agitated by the
prospect of a coordinated death sentence for our species and planet, in service to energy
corporations and short term profit.
Other critiques which have proven unable to rise above the tide of euphoria dominating the
headlines are the fact that the agreement is legally unbinding, (commitment to
decarbonisation is contingent on some form of international peer pressure), that the IPCC
report guiding negotiations relies on yet uninvited carbon sequestration technology which
according to Professors Ian Angus and Phil Gasper “is pure fantasy”. That the Cap and
Trade schemes of trading excess pollution, treating pollution as a market commodity
provide masses of free credits (free pollution) for the largest, most profitable and
dirtiest of the worlds corporations.
It may not be an easy pill to swallow, but we are reaching the limits of concessions from
our corporate seniors, as exemplified by the disingenuous reaction in the corporate media.
They do not appear prepared to take the necessary action to prevent runaway climate
change, which at this point means dramatic restructuring of our modes of production and
our societies. Environmental and social justice movements across the world are growing in
momentum, making stronger demands, deriding as they should the obscene destruction and
inequality being generated by the current system. Reclaiming and democratising power in
our societies, together through global mass movements is the only way to give decent lives
to our children and grand-children.

After two centuries of legal existence, the Greek State decided to admit that its
nationals included people who do not fit the model of heterosexual nuclear family and to
remove a section from the exemption regime has imposed them. ---- The expansion of the
civil partnership is only a first step quite rudimentary and inadequate, towards the full
equation of all rights, including teknothesias, of all people, regardless of sexual
self-determination and identity. It is only one step towards the lifting of the state
racism towards LGBT people, they remain present and acute. ---- On the side of wheezy
state racism have stood in the pipes all the representatives of the old world: the
metropolitans Aigialeias, Piraeus and Thessaloniki and Panos Blazing. The Nazis and the
'Families Associations ". The old calendar and parathriskeftikes organizations. Even the
Communist Party of Greece, which is in compliance with the most bad traditions, remembered
to wag our finger, affirming that '' the formation of the socialist - communist society
will necessarily shape a new type of partnership, as a relatively stable heterosexual
relationship and reproduction " , metaphysical nonsense which combines several more
pseudo-biological nonsense befitting fascists and not communists.

The Assize Court of Appeal of the Prosecutor of Turin issued today, just before 16, the
judgment in the trial of Chiara, Claudio Mattia and Nicolò. The board approved the first
instance, rejecting charges of bombing the purposes of terrorism. No Tav the four was
confirmed the sentence of three and a half years for sabotage. ---- The Attorney General
Marcello Maddalena had asked for nine and a half. ---- Maddalena this morning fired the
last cartridge. In support of its argument, even the letter of the four No Tav, who
identified the salient passages of the struggle: the battle of Seghino siege of July 3,
2011, through Venaus and the Free Republic of the Maddalena. ---- Then the No Tav movement
forced the government to cancel a project now entered the execution phase. Maddalena has
clear ideas: who has done it once again might succeed. The mere intention to stop the
Table would be enough to justify the accusation of terrorism.
In watermark reads the plot underlying tissue argumentative Magdalene: No Tav are all
terrorists. About devastates and militarized territory defends democracy. The sabotage of
that night in May was therefore an attack on democracy.
How can you not agree?
Democracy is one of the forms of the state, which holds sole if the legitimacy of the year
exclusive of violence, to crack down on those who do not accept the rules a fierce game,
restricts freedoms, oppressive.
Who gets in the way, who is not resigned to dissent, those who practice direct action ends
up in the viewfinder.
The Court rejected the argument of days did sit PM, because it is (still) too widely
believed that one can not equate a sabotage to the spread of terror.
The attempted operation by prosecutors in Turin this time failed, but the card of
terrorism could be replayed, if the No Tav movement could again embarrass the Government,
if the territory again become ungovernable.
All No Tav, including seven in the sabotage of May 2013, intend to really force the
government to cancel the new fast line from Turin to Lyon from your own calendar. There is
no doubt that we will give it all.
Although it is not recognized for the purpose of terrorism, the fact remains that four of
us were taken away for three and a half years to their lives, to suffer, to fight.
Today we are comforted by the that the boldest move of the Turin prosecutor has been
defused. Maddalena, the last process before the board was not able to hang in the office
of the scalp No Tav.

Twenty-seven designers exhibiting at the National Library of France in the exhibition
Contemporary Graphics and commitment (s). The opportunity to see what they can bring to
them and activism to make its message accessible to all. ---- There is a contradiction to
expose graphic productions as if it were mere artworks. For if the hundreds of posters and
stickers presented in the driveway-Julien Cain of the BNF have obvious aesthetic dimension
is primarily about them, or at least originally, to reclaim public space to cause on men
and women who inhabit political questions. On chair rails outside the historical and
social context that gave rise to them, they lose some of their strength. "This policy
that's in the picture, said Gerard Paris-Clavel, set designer and author of the famous
General sticker Dream is his path. Any image is polysemic; redefines its meaning depending
on the context and the circumstances of its distribution. "
However, if the museum chosen form - put together alongside other fragments of "works" of
designers - is not necessarily the most relevant, it can still enter by comparing the
importance and relevance of graphic choices made by each other and their policy
implications: with or without words, with drawing or photography, multicolored or duotone
... The work of the singularity of each one emerges during the exhibition. As further said
Gerard Paris-Clavel, "exposed graphic speak taking the picture, all in a singular way."

At dawn on Saturday, December 19th, the occupation Terra Incognita was attacked by
fascists - always long arm of the Greek state- who placed gas canisters outside the
entrance of the building. - From the "attempted arson" nobody was hurt and there was
absolutely no damage, not even at the door of the building, as they caused no explosion. -
This action adds to a series of arson attacks, which took place recently, the most recent
objectives occupy libertatia in Thessaloniki (27.11.2015) and the Autonomous hangout in
Exarchia (18/12/15). ---- The attacks are part of a broader effort to terrorize the state
and the fascists of symmachous- -the natural that with all their rabies want to crush
their common enemy: the movement. The attacks against the resistance outbreaks But even
when disasters cause (and not end up in a fiasco of half-blackened door, as in the
aforementioned cases) fall and will always fall on deaf ears.

On Saturday members of the Dublin anarchist Black Cross attended a vigil held outside the
GPO (General Post Office) in Dublin to highlight the continued use of interment by remand
against Republicans prisoners throughout Ireland. ---- The vigal was called by the
Anti-Interment Committee. They called on all Republican groups, Prisoner support groups,
community groups, trade unions, and civil rights groups to attend the vigil. The vigil was
well attended by members of the Irish Republican Socialist Party, the 32 County Sovernthy
Movement, 1916 Societies, Republican Network for Unity, Cogus, Dublin says No, and
independent activists. All these groups came together to highlight the continued lack of
human rights by the Irish sate and the British state against Republican activists. Many
passer bys stopped to have a look at the vigal and some came over to ask questions about
what was going on.

Luc Joulé and Sébastien Jousse, already co-directors of the documentary Railwaymen in
2010, the employees of the SNCF, has this time turned their attention to the workers of
the factory PSA of Saint-Ouen. What is this work? gives to see the work of these men and
women workers, and hear their comments off on the perception they have. Meanwhile, they
show the work of a composer, Nicolas Frize, came to the factory to organize a musical show
with wage earners, based in particular on sound collected from the factory (those
machines, tools ... ). ---- What is this work? is not a militant film, but it is
nevertheless a political film. The voice of working men and women on their own work shows
all the difficulties, the suffering it causes, but also the individual and collective
strategies to make it less painful and to find it, despite everything, one way. This is
not easy for positions requiring less expertise, where the mechanical, repetitive tasks
seem unbearable ... but is nevertheless supported by these workers and millions of others
who work under the same conditions . In the words of Dejan operator: "Man, he gets used to
anything when he is sentenced. "If the purpose of the film is not to explore social
relationships in the company, the class struggle is perceptible in both cooperation
between workers and the willingness of everyone to remain masters of their Work instead to
comply with the direction.
In the words of Antoine, installation driver: "This time scheme that is imposed by the
structure I not adhere at all. I apply my time, my time for me, my life time, my breathing
time my rest time, my work time. "
