School of Politics and Critique

The Spanish Case: From Revolts to Institutions

The "School for Politics and Critique 2015" with the support of the Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung Southeast Europe is proud to announce the workshop with Juan Luis Sanchez, one of the most influential voices and pens of Indignados movement and Podemos party in Spain. Juan Luis Sanchez is the sub-director of Eldiario newspaper and has been running a special coverage of 15M movement in Spain. During the workshop he will speak on the issues and challenges in the process of institutionalization of the political demands that came out from the street revolts. He will also address the difficulties and advantages of the relations between the Podemos and the movement.

SCHOOL FOR POLITICS AND CRITIQUE 2015

The series of four political workshops under the frames of the School for politics and critique 2015 are conceptual flow from the activities of the School for politics and critique 2014 and they aim at enabling a space both for learning on strategies of enacting large coalitions and action within them, as well as to generate new theoretical knowledge on the political challenges of the current context. The School will provide a larger group of activists an opportunity to work with experienced political activists and theorists.

The increase in neoliberal policies on the one hand and the increase of the authoritarian practice of governments on the other, continuously produce social devastation, fear and political demobilization of social movements. The lack of strategies for outreach to different social groups by the social activists in order to forge a broad alliance of social actors which will enact strategies of action towards social justice, freedom and democracy, produce a fragmented space for change. We need to unite the progressive forces in action.

The lack of a more serious political confrontation to the current neoliberal consensus among the political factors requires the mobilization of a leftist discourse and wide social structures. There is a need to link sectors of labor with other citizen structures in order to organize a political resistance against the terrible social consequences in the areas of freedom, democracy and social justice. At the present moment a serious challenge towards the active political mobilization is the fear and disbelief of the wide popular masses on any political undertaking that would challenge the current governing mentality.

Voda je život. Ovo je rečenica koju svi razumemo i čini nam se da se takav stav podrazumeva. Ipak, gotovo 700.000 ljudi u Vojvodini sa svojih česmi koristi vodu koja nije dozvoljena za piće zbog visokog nivoa arsena.
