2009 - so deadly we can not even do a budget above. Inside
What year crazy. I do not even remember how it started or where, as for first four months of the year was so much time around the center of Stockholm cool that I almost think of moving there.
But, really, that's crazy years.
2009 is the year that has begun to take shape Estonian Free Press, was born on the ashes of my relationship (never finished, but never even saved) with Cafebabel. The year in which David Hernandez Garcia came from Spain to work full time on what in 2008 was not even thought of. The year in which David has joined Annika and Liis. Who then came after Marit, Guillaume and Edwarth but before Marco. Mamma mia how many people came under EFP in twelve months.
2009 was the year of Kaarlo Caffee (failed) and Kaarle caffee meetings (including those failed), of more than 100 slides of my presentation on social media and the first skating on a frozen lake in the entire my life.
Year of the bluff of the election of Obama - no, I've changed my mind - and repression in Iran, the arrival of the iPhone in my pocket and the return of the young in Paris.
Paris. After I did not even remember how many years I have resided on the damn sedietta to Luxembourg.
year of economic crisis and return to the ideal condition of my life: paying the rent writing. The year of the attack on PokerStars and meetings to learn how to prepare the meetings in preparation for important meetings.
Year of the Nobel gave the ass and hookers of Berlusconi, the SARAS and deaths of my new tooth that I did not even ruined by a miserable return to football.
year dependence on Spotify, the beginning of the end of Facebook and the decision not to drink more than two energy drinks a day then it hurts.
year of wisdom which might well be remembered as the last gentleman from .
airport of Amsterdam announced that after the explosive storiaccia panties, get ready to put the " body scanner "at the airport to avoid other figures at least Barbini. Hard times for two or three people I know.
Three amendments to re-establish the Young Communist
Daniel Maffione (formerly National Coordination GC)
Communist Left attending the Fourth National Conference of Young Communists submitting their amendments to the first national document, "Young Communist / i: A generation of dreams, conflicts and revolutions." The barrier of the 150 signatures required by national regulation, this area has responded well by delivering 217 signatures, collected in twelve different regions, which were delivered on time and with exemplary rigor, surpassing even the number of accessions in order to submit a alternative document!
This result is given by an extraordinary mobilization of our militants in the territories, that occurred in a few days, showing that ours is not an area that exists only "on paper", as in the case of the political class of the other components of this organization, who decided to table its own weight in future leadership bodies. Communist Left is a component that has a strong united and living in daily contact with local clubs and between the base of our organization, enjoying broad consensus. One year and three months of its constitution, this cultural and Planning, which is social conflict, collective organization and its theoretical strengths, will present additional arguments and substitute therefore the first document. This choice is gained in the attempt to give a unitary perspective to our organization, but also with the idea of \u200b\u200bnot flatten out in a unanimous first expressed in the document content. We believe this text widely shared and we take it in the attempt to overcome internal splits, but we also see the analytical limits, which are reflected in the lack of policy proposals on some strategic issues that we are to overcome our amendments. In fact, our argument, made by a collective elaboration, capture exactly the need to open a broader confrontation in the Young Communists' anti-fascist struggles "(additions to the thesis n.8)," The s Young Communist / s in the front line of defense of the commons "(the integration thesis No.15) and" Young Communist / i: drive, conflict, the Communist Refoundation (replacement thesis No. 25) are the amendments presenting with this perspective. On one of these arguments (the one on the commons), among other things, we built a unified convergence with other basic components of our organization, to the detriment of those who presented as an area in the first factional paper.
mates Communist Left has been severely beaten in all these months to give our organization a unitary structure and a revolutionary perspective to the GC, but so far we have been regularly excluded from any body of political leadership or management. Despite this, while others undertook strategies pre-congress, we have secured the unit in the base organization, providing a strong showing in the conflict, the challenge to the G8 summits to combat the resurgence of neo-fascists, the election campaign the commitment given in the Brigades of active solidarity in Abruzzo. We have highlighted the limits of the Young Communist League in the class struggle, projecting into the struggles of the precarious and the working class, and have even sponsored a national training school in Rocca di Papa (Rm), which provided ideological tools of the first and many cultural activists, filling a major gap in the party.
Today we summarize our positions and our experience in three amendments, which we have made available to all Young Communist League, a proposal to build a united political and revolutionary perspective, starting from the re-establishment of a thought and a Marxist organization. For us, the Communist Refoundation is more necessary than ever, at a time when capitalism produces even more 'injustice and exploitation, that the Berlusconi government and the right result in narrowing subversive of democracy, workers and attacks on political and social repression. The basis of our amendments is the idea that the youth wings of communist parties, by their vocation generational feel more 'the need of the conflict. This thing has always put the young Communists in every age and country, to the left of their parties as they push their organizations into the heart of class struggle and social upheaval.
Therefore, we ask all young communists who feel the need to hold together the organization, but also to express their ideas with force, to support the Fourth National Conference on the first paper, by voting for amendments. We ask the entire base to reinforce the idea of \u200b\u200bcollective intellect, developed by Antonio Gramsci, with which to build a genuinely revolutionary party, which is finally at the challenges of our times!
Amendments to the first document for the Fourth Conference of GC
Young Communist League: unity, the conflict, the Communist Refoundation (Amendment to the replacement thesis No. 25)
"Teach, because we need all our intelligence.
Shake, because we need all our enthusiasm,
Get organized, because we need all our strength. "
Antonio Gramsci
Our Party has long been engaged in the construction of the route of the Federation of the Left. The idea that it is based is that of creating a broad front of all the forces that are on the left of the Democratic Party, which may come to intercept the consent of those most vulnerable disappointed by the forces of the left.
The construction of an alternative pole of the left of PD is independent from the objective requirement given the current dynamics of conflict and the actual balance of power. However, one can not help but note that the current process Construction of the Federation, as it is developing, does not provide an alternative way through a transformation in the communist society, it is clear the absence, even in the constitutive status, references to the achievements of the labor movement and interpretation of the Marxist fact that the excess in prospettino revolutionary way of capitalism. If, therefore, should not be ordered in the Federation itself, however, criticize the way in which it was constituted, and what it could become. This structure, in fact, without reference to a political project and a clearly defined and strongly anti-capitalist, is likely to become a container of forces different policy options on issues of labor, political alliances and the fight against capital and whose only goal is to grow in electoral terms. This process is the questioning of the "left turn" in Chianciano, in which a little over a year ago, the majority of our party decided to defend their political autonomy and to revive the project of re-founding a communist. If Chianciano chose to leave the party "from below" and "left", the project of the Federation is likely to become a merger made "from above" to "right". On the basis of youth, this process would push the GC to give up their autonomy and in fact lose the heritage of history and experience that has made them in the past a person recognized by the movements and a political support base.
We are convinced that the reconstruction of the Left alternative in Italy near the strengthening of our Party and its youth organization. First, we must lay the foundations for Rifondazione Comunista, and the first GC, become a new "collective intellect" in which all the subjects of intellectual and material production, by the worker to university professor, and opposed by the divided capital, may compose a critical reading of the entire bourgeois society and work out the excess. 'S why we propose the establishment a real school of political training, has long been a demand of our base. Secondly, with the recovery of Marxist analysis, we have to make us able to launch a challenge to the hegemonic and institutional right to effectively counter the resurgence of neo-fascists. From a thorough analysis of the capital-labor conflict, the GC must be enabled to rebuild their settlement among the new generations, affected by job insecurity and social alienation produced by capitalism to once again become organization conflict, able to animate the battles among young workers, students and immigrants, raising a new revolutionary perspective. The fight, strengthening the design and theoretical training will help the GC to update the re-establishment of a thought and a Communist Party. Only in this way can we build a Polo-capitalist struggles that starts from the bottom to make the convergence of all the forces of the next class.

The / Youth Communities and in the forefront defense of common goods (amendment to the supplemental claim No. 15)
The
/ Communist Youth / i have to fight for the defense of the commons and in contrast to the militarization of the territories.
fight today for the common good means to adopt an anti-capitalist position, from a critical forms of unbridled neo-liberalism which, in the economic commodification, come to aberrations such as privatization of common resources and vital as water. In our country we have hundreds of water sources that privatized for marketing bottled water, local communities have been withheld for ridiculously low fees. With the Ronchi Decree, which aims for the conversion of public management in PPS profit-driven and to minimizing costs, the situation will worsen. The results will be the exclusion of vulnerable groups from access to water, the decrease in controls, cuts in personnel. Our initiative In this sense, we should see at the forefront of a battle on the regions through campaigns to support legislative proposals of citizens' initiative with these objectives: ripubblicizzazione water, provision of a minimum quantity per capita access, restructuring of the water network , gradual introduction of charging.
The second issue that focus on is the bankruptcy of current patterns of waste management. The waste disposal system in Italy, based on the scheme "production-use-landfill-incineration" is unsustainable and detrimental to the territories and people's health. What's worse is that incinerators are built in Italy State of the proceeds from items that bill should be allocated to sources of clean and renewable energy. A gift of the center-left before the fall of the Prodi government that treats the biomass than solar and wind power. Not to mention the far greater risks to health resulting from the fermentation of the wet fraction, which today is not treated in appropriate sites for composting. GC How do we argue for the alternative of a production of objects that may be expected after the first cycle of use, a full recovery from a recycling process, systematic and virtuous. Be used as a reference model of supply chain waste which builds the platform on Zero Waste: upstream waste reduction, creation of a national waste plan capable of providing new jobs, establishment of recycling facilities, waste collection door to door, in big cities, building-up of MBT (Mechanical Biological Treatment) or similar systems for the treatment Wet fraction.
Today's energy supply and environmental issues are closely related and importance is vital to our country. I wish GC strongly criticize the populist line of the current government unconstitutional and that, contrary to a popular referendum on the abolition of nuclear power plants proposed for local communities the mandatory installation of such facilities. These, as well as landfill, or the great works affected by strong opposition by local and national sites are classified as "strategic interest Military." A decree law, launched ad hoc during mobilization of the population bell against the opening of new landfills, provides for the interruption of the normal democratic guarantees in specific areas of Italian territory, contrary to the principle of transparency and thus violating law directly related to information and the right to criticize, as protected by Article. 21 of the Constitution. These struggles are thus inevitably intersect with the struggles the militarization of the area and then to fight U.S. imperialism. The bases in North America employ, sometimes almost at no cost, our common assets, which are therefore placed at the service of the U.S. hegemony and their political model, economic, social and cultural. E 'then reconnecting the anti-imperialist struggle to defend the country and the common goods that we must support the formation of a movement which has as its perspective the closure of all the approximately 113 U.S. military bases in Italy and exit from NATO, radicalizing the struggles waged by the various committees and coordination of people emerged on the territory, aimed at increasing the dissent against the military presence Yankee.

antifascist struggles (Amendment argument to supplement n ° 8)
"It's up to young people continue on the road, young people continue the resistance."
John Fish - Partisan
The climate of heightened social disruption caused by this crisis was a pretext used by the Berlusconi government to make deep and violent attacks on the rights of workers, migrants, students, resulting in a change classist, xenophobic and security-in our country are victims of the hegemony that the forces moderate opposition. This is not disconnected by the advance of the common sense of right and neo-fascism: it is the social disadvantage on the one hand, and discriminatory responses that provide the right hand of government to subsidize the proliferation of neo-fascist groups, and to allow them the conquest of political freedom and social life. Even the historical claims of the movement Communist, as the right to culture, social spaces and the intervention in the daily discomfort, become the scope of a new right, and that manifests itself as a "social" and the "institutional".
E 'for this reason that anti-fascism must be indispensable compass of all the political action of GC, as both political and cultural reference, and as a social practice to reconnect to the nature of anti-communist youth organization. The roots of our anti-fascism must sink into the patrimony of values \u200b\u200band ideals that was the resistance, in which central importance were the working classes and the working class, our primary social contacts.
Today more than ever to share these values \u200b\u200bis unavoidable and necessary. But the fundamental value of anti not be transformed into a mere statement of principle or ceremonial moment. It must live in the first place, an action to counter the cultural tendency against those who, through a continuous review work, to debase the meaning of this wealth of ideas. Secondly (but certainly not least) is our own activism on this basis should be reformulated, with the aim of countering the increasingly frequent incidents of neo-fascism, which are declined in the old cancer xenophobic, racist, classist and homophobic. The first operational step in this direction that we propose is that the GC are promoting a permanent anti-Fascist Coordination, which aggregated all those anti-fascist and democratic citizenship, with the function of keeping alive the anti-fascist militancy and not get caught unprepared in the face of episodes require immediate policy response. Our priority must also be close cooperation in networks and network anti-fascists who have made the fight against the resurgence of reactionary, in which the GC should seek to shift the focus from the simple contrast of the extreme right-wing groups to a battle with taking the fight against neo-fascism and reactionary policies of the Berlusconi government. Not is then forgotten the need for an ever greater support, resulting in massive registration campaign, the various sections of ANPI, having recently opened to young people within the association.
