Liebe FreundInnen und GenossInnen!
Ab MORGEN Montag 7.12. gehts in Kopenhagen los: mit dem offiziellen UNO-Klimagipfel COP 15 - bei dem außer heißer Luft nichts rauskommen wird.
UND dem Alternativgipfel, der ernsthaft die miserable ökologische Lage des Paneten Erde diagnostizieren und Mittel und Wege aufzeigen wird, wie nur durch tiefgreifenden önomischen und politischen Wandel- über die Profit"logik" des Kapitalismus hinaus- die absehbare Katastrophe verhindert werden kann.
Ich werde von 10.-14. Dezember in Kopenhagen sein- am 12. ist die Riesen-Demo. Als ASF-Aktivist nehme ich auch auf diversen Diskussions-Foren teil.
Ich werde - wie immer- laufend Berichte schicken.
Wer fährt nach Kopenhagen????
Bitte schreibt mir oder noch besser ruft mich BALD an.-
Unten interessante Infos über den Gegengipfel.
Solidarische Grüße
Hermann Dworczak (activist of the Austrian Social Forum/ ASF; 0043 /676/ 972 31 10 )

> Introduction
>
> At the coming climate summit in Copenhagen in December 2009 the present
> development model and its political system will come to an end. Faced with
> the core of its inner contradiction this system will break down when not
> only the heads of the political opposition will be present but also the more
> advanced bodies allied with a refusal of the separation of man and nature,
> bodies and heads. What will be left is an empty shell nobody more believes
> in unless they are paid to do so. The struggle will continue on all levels
> from our daily lives to world politics but there will be a system change or
> maybe we rather can talk about a cultural change that is also material. A
> turn that will change not only the power relations but also the way power is
> perceived and how we allow or reject it from dominating our lives and
> societies. How clear this break down will be is yet an open question, but
> the possibilities are there in front of us when we act together in our
> diversities strengthening each other.
>
> The legitimation behind the system of power within the present development
> model will break down faced with the accumulation of both environmental and
> social crisis by now recognized also by the main stream cultural ideology.
> Science is on the tipping point were the scientists no longer can ignore the
> environmental risks inherent in the present development model. And the
> scientists are the main legitimators of the present world order. For
> everyone to see the Emperor is naked as predicted by the Danish writer H C
> Andersen.
>
> The Emperor and his or her spin doctors and tailors of invisible
> legitimation is easy to identify. We know them when we see them whether he
> or she is the unassured right wing prime minister or equally empty handed
> competing environmental minister of Denmark or A P Møller, the owner of the
> shipping company and dominating Danish corporation Maersk who alone emits
> more green house gases than the whole of Denmark domestically. Or if it is
> the Nobel prize winner US president Obama himself.
>
> It might be harder to identify the child that tells us that the Emperor is
> naked. Once upon a time there was something called the press that were
> supposed to tell us these things. Now mass media are among the entourage of
> the Emperors spinning their story in common. According to them reality does
> not exist, only the competence of the unquestionably democratic politicians
> and their experts that together will manage to solve all the different
> crisis with the help of an ever-growing market. Under the banner of
> sustainable growth that will bring freedom and well-being as well as a
> better environment to our children these spin doctors claim that all
> violence is external to the present development model were all sooner or
> later are in a win-win situation. Violence is the result of ideological
> extremism opposing the invincible sustainable growth modernity. While the
> violence in this world thus are external to the system and if it anyway
> burst out are exceptions to the rule it is the opposite with any protests
> against the system. Here violence is inherent in any protests as it is
> designed by the media, parliamentary system, police and corporate public
> relations. Unless the opposition is not totally under control of the system
> and its separation of the bodies and the heads of the protesters.
>
> So who then is this child telling us that the Emperor is naked? Well this
> child is of course many children, maybe even a community of communities that
> together have the maturity of not only stating that the Emperor is naked but
> with their simple existence and presence acting together have a liveliness
> that makes the media flood light on the Emperor showing that he or she is
> actually a robot.
>
> In this article I will focus on the political opposition and how it is
> organized before, during and hopefully after the Copenhagen summit. I will
> address the situational context during the meeting in a first part as well
> as the historical background in a second part. It is my hope that this will
> contribute to both more understanding but also feeling of togetherness among
> all protesters in Copenhagen that are concerned about climate change.
