> dignity and freedom in life.

> The Europe we imagine is not the institutionally-constrained,
> geographically-bordered region that is usually meant. We think of Euro-

> from Western Europe to the Balkan regions, from Eastern Europe to the
> whole South-Mediterranean area, considering the 'Arab springs' as a
> living part of the constituent process we look for.
>
> We all now live at the edge of the neo-liberal Europe. Our life has

> desperation's edge.
>
> We don't want to make it anymore. We want our life back, our dignity

> So we call from all over Europe, people that are struggling, people

> Que se vayan todos!

> Save the dates:

> We will meet along the week of action around the second anniversary of

> For decentralized international protests on June 1st gathered by the

> In Athens for the AlterSummit (7th to 9th of June)
> And every time in all the local struggles for our goal: Blockupying
