Program 18/03/08

Predstavitev in diskusija:
NO G8 Japan!

Torek, 18. marec 2008, ob 20h


Vodje držav, ki monopolizirajo dve tretjini zemeljskega bogastva, se bodo julija 2008 srečali pri jezeru Toya v Hokaidu na Japonskem. Tako imenovani vrh G8 predstavlja globalnega vladarja, ki vztrajno uveljavlja neo-liberalne reforme in istočasno razširja revščino, nasilje, sovraštvo, segregacijo in uničevanje okolja po vsem svetu. Tega mu več ne moremo dopustiti.

Mreža anti-avtoritarnežev in anarhistov NO! G8 Action se je vzpostavila maja 2007, malo pred vrhom G8 v Rostocku, kjer se je učila od evropskih protestov proti G8. Sedaj pa se pripravljamo, da bi udarec iz Japonske in Južne Azije postavili na oder globalnega proti-kapitalističnega boja.

Info-tour predstavitev se v veliki meri dotakne perečih problemov Japonske in Južne Azije, kot so militarizacija, neoliberalne reforme, prosta trgovina, družba nadzora, okolje in manjšine, hkrati pa problematizira skupne točke upora ljudi po vsem svetu.
