LULA’S MOMENT
|
Lula’s success represents an innovative leap both for Brazil and the whole of the Latin American continent. This is not the first time Latin America has witnessed a left-wing victory driven by colossal movements, but the difference now is that such a victory breaks the hegemony of the free market. Sader looks at the progress made and weighs up the hopes and obstacles that may arise in the future.

THE ITALIAN CRISIS
|
In the course of just one year, the Centre-right has revealed itself to be worse that predicted and is now facing real problems. A social and democratic movement has breathed new life into the left-wing electorate. However, rather than taking the opportunity to study and act on the phenomenon, the Olive Tree coalition finds itself divided and in difficulty. This thorny issue is tackled with a view to trying to find a way of getting back on track.

BUSH CULTURE
|
«The concept of ‘free trade’ arose as a moral principle even before it became a pillar of economics. If you can make something that others value, you should be able to sell it to them. If others make something that you value, you should be able to buy it. This is real freedom, the freedom for a person -- or a nation -- to make a living.» George W. Bush

AS FLORENCE DRAWS NEAR 1968 AND NO-GLOBAL
|
The unreliable nature of memory makes it difficult to use the present to separate the historical wheat from the chaff. Consequently, even when a critical eye is used to appraise the past, lessons are not easily found which can be applied to the present. A comparative analysis is made between the movements between 1968 and today in the run-up to the Florence forum.
