PARTIES AND MOVEMENTS
[[link removed]]
_Sheri Berman, Andre Pagliarini, Zachariah Mampilly and Nick
Serpe_ / Dissent (New York)
This conversation brings together scholars who focus on different
regions in order to help us understand the challenges that left
political formations and popular movements face around the world. What
do they hold in common? Where do their perspectives diverge? What
brought them to this point—and where are they headed?
__________
PUTIN, NAVALNY AND KAGARLITSKY
[[link removed]]
_Kirill Medvedev and Federico Fuentes_ / Links (Sydney)
“Every conciliatory statement made by liberal intellectuals in
America results in more arrests, fines, and searches of democratic
activists and just plain people here in Russia. (We need) an
understanding of the reality that has developed in Russia today. Stop
identifying Putin and his gang with Russia. (Those) who want the good
of Russia and the Russians cannot but be irreconcilable enemies of
this power.”
__________
FOR INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY: LA VIA CAMPESINA DECLARATION
[[link removed]]
_6th International Women’s Assembly of La Via Campesina_ / La Via
Campesina (Bagnolet, France)
Indigenous women, peasants, landless women, migrants, fisherwomen,
pastoralists, seasonal workers, and agricultural workers have been
fundamental in carrying forward political and organizational
strategies and tactics. They guarantee life and a future for humanity
and the planet, fighting daily against the looting, devastation,
death, and oppression caused by capitalism and agro-hydro business.

ARGENTINA: FEMINISTS TAKE ON ECONOMIC VIOLENCE

_Luci Cavallero and Naira Estevez_ / Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung
(Berlin)
Argentina's feminist movement — the main enemy, as claimed by
ultra-libertarian president Javier Milei himself — is mobilizing for
another round of “8M” protests on International Women’s Day.
Expect a great response from many sectors that find in the feminist
movement a space of articulation, to integrate the different forms of
impact on daily life that women and sexual minorities are suffering.

POLITICAL PRISONER MARWAN BARGHOUTI
[[link removed]]
_Oliver Holmes and Peter Beaumont_ / The Guardian (London)
Virtually every opinion poll since his imprisonment two decades ago
shows Barghouti to be the favourite presidential candidate for the
Palestinian people, were they able to hold free elections. The
64-year-old political leader serving multiple life sentences in an
Israeli prison for murder represents the prospect of a genuine
shake-up to the status quo.
__________
FIGHTING CORRUPTION IN AFRICA
[[link removed]]
_John Githongo_ / U4 (Bergen, Norway)
“Corruption is often couched in moral terms, but an urgent contest
has set in, muddying the waters of anti-corruption work. This is
not so much a contest against so-called Western values of democracy
and human rights but rather against what is understood, especially by
youth and especially in the Global South, as Western hypocrisy and
double standards in the export of these values.”
__________
ROJAVA AND TITO’S YUGOSLAVIA
[[link removed]]
_Matt Broomfield_ / The Kurdish Center for Studies (Bochum, Germany)
The jailed Kurdish figurehead Abdullah Öcalan is represented by his
supporters as the ‘Mandela of the Middle East’. The Kurdish-led
polity established around the Syrian Kurdish region of Rojava is
governed by the Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East
Syria. Öcalan’s doctrines compare with those of communist
partisan-turned-statesman Josip Broz Tito of Yugoslavia.
__________
CELAC SUMMIT CONCLUDES IN ST VINCENT
[[link removed]]
_Ernesto Cooke_ / St Vincent Times (Kingstown)
The summit committed to further consolidate a Latin American and
Caribbean community of sovereign nations, capable of reaching
consensus and fostering international cooperation, while recognizing
our different political systems and economic diversity, on a
coordinated approach to enriching the lives and welfare of our
peoples.
