After they've found a common political economic line, and they've transformed the workforce market according to the globalization and neoliberal schemes, they will also give form to the european political and military structure. The future EU summits, like the past ones (Barcelona, Seville, Thessaloniki),have in their agenda crucial and concrete moments for the realization of common social policies: the real creation of Fortress Europe. All
the efforts are going towards the expantion of european borders
towards east (wich means opening new markets) and the clouser (?)
of these, with money going for the development of digital(140 milion
euro for VIS and SIS
II) and military (250 milion euro to build "transition
camps" outside the borders probably run by EU's police) control
systems. But this doesn't happened only inside the fortress. Similer meccanisms of controll, repression and gathering arms are the direct expression of capitalism all over the world, especially in western countries (or the countries that have just become rich) who trie and defend their wealth and go around looting things they haven't yet got. Our refusal of Fortress Europe is a refusal of capitalism as style of life. We prefer selforganization as choice of life and we refuse business logics. What we are looking for is a revolution in our every day lives: we refuse all hierarchies, we fight from below against sexism and fascism, selfsufficiency and selfproduction to try and get out of the market logics, direct action as a form of conflict and riappropriation, radical ecologism as a battle field, indypendent information clashing against mainstream media, the refusal of any "etiquet" (even alternative ones) for everyones choice and individual dignity. This we are and know we are not the only ones. The mobilizations aganinst the EU summit can be the occasion for many italian and european activists to come to Rome. We belive that it's good time to make this an opportunity to know each other, indipendently from the lobbies agenda's, so that we can build togheter the days of action and share experiences. |
