Friend --

Winning the war does not necessarily mean winning the peace. The battle to control the "rules" of a post-war system is as intense in many ways as the wars that accompany the demise of the previous system.  As we see the inevitable collapse of the "neo-liberal system" controlled from the West, we will discuss in tonight's symposium  the history and battles involved in establishing the post-WWII "Bretton Woods System." What went right, and what went wrong?

We have much to say about this process of the Bretton Woods -- old and potentially new. Lyndon LaRouche warned at the time of the take down of the original Bretton Woods System in 1971, when the dollar was taken off the gold reserve system and a "floating currency rate" system was established,  that such a system would lead to a reemergence of fascism and war.  LaRouche moved then to create a new, just system presenting his call for an "International Development Bank" in 1974. LaRouche called his  2000 presidential campaign  "The Committee for a New Bretton Woods."

In 2022, Helga Zepp-LaRouche issued a petition for international support for a New Bretton Woods System.  She wrote at that time: 

"There is a growing concern about World War III and, while people are against war, they are not looking at the cause. It is the collapse globally of the neo-liberal system which is responsible for the war drive coming from the G7 and NATO."

While ridiculing the dog-and-pony show of their summits, she pointed to the serious discussion at the BRICS-Plus summit as an example of the potential to achieve a global bankruptcy reorganization. As to why connect her petition with Bretton Woods, she said that it represented a precedent for such a global agreement and that, although the hijacking of FDR’s original proposal prevented the full decolonization he intended, the BRICS-Plus have now put that back on the agenda. By contrast, "The G7 and NATO are launching a global operation which does not address any of the immediate threats facing mankind. Our proposal does," she said.

The BRICS summit this year, which will conclude on October 24, will put forward proposals for a new financial system. 

Tonight's symposium will discuss the history of the original Bretton Woods System and the importance of how a new system will be created today.

Two days after the close of this BRICS summit, my campaign, together with Jose Vega's campaign, are sponsoring a major meeting for peace and development in New York City <[link removed]>.  We encourage you to attend!
