Vertigo And Herniated Disc;any Connection?
June 19, 2009
Today marks ten years since the English government signed with the Bologna Declaration signed, giving the official starting gun to the European Space for Higher Education. The fight against Bologna in the course does not arise now goes back to the struggles against Bricall Report (1999) and Lou (2001). These texts were already as regards the European Higher Education Area (EHEA) and were released a few years later that came to light agreements (GATT and GATS) of the World Trade Organization (WTO) to liberalize public services such as education and health. After ten years constant demonstrations against the precepts, the rules and the interests that give life to the reform and calling for public debate on a topic of vital importance such as university education, to be social spaces where it develops social reproduction, with the significance that this looks like, the responses from government institutions remain the same: first exercise the imposition and when strong resistance is practicing the other side of the same coin: the repression of the student movement (arrests of students, complaints, expulsions, criminalization of student assemblies, complaints, pressure ... more than 100 outstanding students trials for defending a university free from critical and commercial logic)
Today, continuing the dynamics of working behind the company. All kinds of official documents, such as the new status of IDPs, the actual operation of the grades, how to really affect the implementation of the / students beginning or they will have to adapt to the new plan, how to translate them into practical effect, how will indeed the new system of grants-continue coming out, coming to the university community, once they have taken all the relevant decisions, unilaterally, without dialogue option or joint construction. Thus a Again, this highlights the prevailing authoritarianism and lack of democracy that is in the university, but is a constant in all public policies are implemented. We say loud and clear that all the information and open public debate in the streets and in society in general have been the result of work / students and teachers with activities such as debates, lectures at colleges, in local neighborhood demonstrations, written, referenda, TV programs where the authorities were afraid to go, the symbolic use of space to open society. But ever since those government agencies.
Acts as no access to the interview with the state assembly pdi-country, by the Minister, derived from Marius Rubiralta secretary, is an example of the lack of political will to want to resolve the conflict. It is a sign of disrespect to the directly affected groups and strata, as is the assembly.
This type of attitude is not new. Is repeated and increasingly evident that thousands of students demanding the suspension of proceedings and are classified as minority. In this sense, the failure to recognize the student assemblies as a grassroots movement and student representation and no community-based university, is a clear example of abuse of power, authoritarianism and enforcement. Assemblies, the boycott and picketing are our law, the media discourse, the clubs and the lack of alternatives to capitalist democracy is yours. Those teachers, politicians and members who at the time said they were against the LOU now are those who order evictions and police charges.
denounce once again, that the various mechanisms used as the call for referendums, vote no campaigns, participation in meetings or in the cloisters have shown that the law only recognized when it is on the side of power and interests. But is not recognized when through the same mechanism is evident that most of the university community and society calls for suspension of proceedings. Dynamics of this kind are typical of authoritarian, undemocratic and dictatorial regimes.
Participation in the referendum for example in UB was 18% while elections for rector of the university was 5.42%. More than 15,000 students at the universities of Barcelona called for the cessation of the Bologna process. Who is the minority?
After the protests and demonstrations of 13N, 20N, 12M, 18M, 26M, 28 th and 9 My, has not considered the voice of the people who have been heard over the years. The social debate we have strengthened us and won us, but due to the prevailing despotism these democratic self-styled authorities, there is no alternative but to move forward in the fight.
If peaceful protest and want to create an open social debate is a crime, we are guilty, and yes, we are about anti when we reaffirm that we will not rest, in which repeat until you clarify who will be closer to Europe and under what conditions, until they stop the LOU and the rapidly changing and unstructured that surrounds us, until there is a real participatory process until the misinformation longer constitutes a beneficial and necessary element until the expulsions, records and complaints disappear from conflict university. Today, here in the Ministry of Education, advised the political and academic authorities that next year we will fight to defend a free knowledge, critical, not subject to business logic, denounce precariousness, both inside and outside the university, which involves all the restructuring.
Because we are not stupid and we know the interests behind the so-called European convergence, recidivists. Repression does not cut off our wings. Barcelona is starting a campaign antirepresiva, 58 i +, which aims to expose the methods used by the government: if the taxation does not fit, enter the repression. Bologna is imposed truncheon! We have the arguments and solidarity of society. You have an equipment pamphlet of media opinion makers and the mercenaries that you make the task defamatory. Let's see who wins the game ...
Against Capital Europe and the commodification of our lives! Not to Bologna! No to the LOU! No to the royal decrees!
against repression, direct action! Against Bologna and a step back!

How To Show My Cleavage
EFE News Agency:
With Stieg Larsson as the best ambassador of Nordic literature live their year in the Book Fair and arouses passions among readers. The key to success lies not only in crime novels, but a few writers who know how to enter global social misery directly, entertaining and poetic. It was a year ago when Stieg Larsson and the first part of the Millennium trilogy, "Men Who Hate Women" broke in Spain. Two years earlier, had been discovered in France and Italy, which have long successfully translating Norse literature sales.
A Spain has taken longer to arrive due largely to the shortage of translators, but Diego Moreno, editor of Nordic, one of seven independent publishers group the Association Context, no doubt about the success and importance acquire in a year or two writers of the Nordic countries (Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Iceland and Norway). "It's one of the best literature of the world, is entertaining but also very interesting because it talks about social problems and deep feelings for an affordable price," he told Efe Moreno, who says that thanks to the efforts of Stieg Larsson and Henning Mankell, both Swedish and writers of crime novels, readers are starting aa leap to other genres. It is precisely the model developed in the Nordic society is not free from conflicts such as the mistreatment of women which, according to Moreno, most calls
to the reader. "These are countries that we admire but thanks to literature to discover our common problems." One of the best attested data this 'boom' Nordic is the number of titles. Just two years ago, there were the fingers of one hand the books of each of these countries, "Today it has increased tenfold," says Moreno, who stands at the beginning of the sixties phenomena of this literature. Then he published a lot but with little success because the issues were not very good until the early nineties when the Norwegian author Jostein Gaarder in "Sophie's World" and the first cases of the Swedish inspector Kurt Wallander of Mankell revolutionized Norse literature in Spain. "Now there is a third wave," says Moreno, and that seems to be that Mankell has not been dropped but the crest has been raised as none Larsson in Arnaldur Indridason Icelandic company with "The Woman in Green" has sold at a fair week over a hundred copies only in the house that published in Castilian, RBA, according to Efe account Esther Romero, one of the comerciales.También RBA succeeds in Swedish marriage Sjöwall Maj and Per Wahlöö, inspiring true Scandinavian crime novels in the sixties and this year stand out in the Madrid Book Fair with the series of detective Martin Beck. Based on the success of Larsson, publishers have a clear commitment by the Norse, especially thrillers: Camilla Lamberg, Jens Lapidus, Asa Larsson and John Ajvide Linqvist can be seen in many booths. Non-criminal but driven by it, "the reader is falling for other writers of the first level," says Moreno. As "essential" Arto Pasilina Finnish, Norwegian Kjell Askildsen or Sjon, perhaps the greatest writer in the current Icelandic letters. The latter, "The Arctic fox" and a selection of Nordic writers present stories with the title "Women of the Fjords" are two books that are having more success in the Nordic booth where they recommend "Letters Finnish" Angel Ganivet to enter the Nordic society paradigm. Among the women writers has opened a gap in sales this fair "Babette's Feast" by Isak Dinesen Danish, known as "Out of Africa."
