This text is the short version of the “Manifesto for a New Popular Internationalism in Europe”, which was published on 21 March 21 2019 in English, French and Spanish.
This Manifesto has been drawn up by a group of activists and researchers from a dozen or so countries in Europe who wish to propose a blueprint to be carried out by the popular Left forces. It is part of the ReCommonsEurope Project which was initiated by two international networks, the CADTM and EReNSEP, and the Basque trade union ELA, in order to contribute to the strategic debates taking place within the European popular Left today. It was written in one year by sixteen people active in six different countries (Belgium, Bosnia, France, Greece, the Spanish State, and the United Kingdom); the authors are active in different organisations and movements (trade unions, political parties, activist movements) and bring together diverse and complementary expertise (economics, political science, philosophy, anthropology, law, ecology, unionism, feminism, North/South solidarity, and so on). Three generations are represented. The Manifesto is supported by more than 160 signatories from 21 different European countries, among whom a majority of women. The collection of signatures, as well as the collective reflection and elaboration from which this Manifesto has emerged, are continuing.
We have written a coherent proposal for the commitments, initiatives and measures to be taken by the forces of the popular Left in Europe. The proposals address the main issues that a people’s government will have to face as soon as it comes to power. The Manifesto is intended for political organizations and social movements (trade unions, associations, citizens) fighting at local, national and international levels for fundamental human rights and equality for all, for social emancipation and democracy, and against the destruction of ecosystems.
Our objective is to submit these analyses and proposals for discussion to the social and political left, and to all those activists and citizens of Europe who are convinced that a radical change is necessary if we are to meet the major challenges of the day. Europe is going through a major and prolonged crisis. The European Union is basically anti-democratic and in the service of the richest. In recent years, several opportunities have been missed, especially in 2015 in Greece. The ecological crisis, violent austerity policies, and the danger represented by the rise of a racist and xenophobic far right, only make it more urgent to define a strategy associating organization from below, social movements and political organizations, in order to make politics serve the interests of the majority.
