COMING SERIES: AT THE CROSSROADS - EUROPE'S MOVEMENTS RESPOND


Media coverage of the EUROPEAN ELECTIONS has focused on the disturbing
RISE OF THE FAR RIGHT, but much less on the advance of
progressive
forces in Greece, Spain and to a lesser extent in other
countries undergoing austerity policies. The media have also been blind
to the
inspiring struggles waged by diverse social movements across
Europe. The direction for EUROPE IS AT A POLITICAL CROSSROADS, but we
believe it is
possible to advance a vision of Europe not based on
nationalism and repression of minorities, but based on solidarity and
democracy. 

With a series of articles "AT THE CROSSROADS - EUROPE'S
MOVEMENTS RESPOND" we aim to provide well founded analysis by and for
the European
social movements acting against the EU crisis regime. TNI
asked some of the most relevant European social movements of the last
years what
STRATEGIC LESSONS can be learned from recent resistance, the
challenges we currently face and how TO BE PREPARED FOR UPCOMING
STRUGGLES. 

Starting next week with a reflection from writer and
journalist Bernardo Gutiérrez about "NETWORK MOVEMENTS", we will publish
short articles
from the Water Anti-privatisation movement, Blockupy, the
Debt Audit Campaign, Alter Summit and others to follow until the end of
June. 

Do not miss this series of articles that aim to provide tools
and insights so that we can continue to STRENGTHEN EUROPEAN SOCIAL
MOVEMENTS
and sharpen the effectiveness of our strategies and tactics in
the NEW POLITICAL CONJUNCTION created by the European elections. 

In
solidarity,
