SPECIAL SERIES- MIGRATIONS HAITI (I) Historical Frame of the Haitian Migrations A life under conditions of extreme poverty has encouraged the Haitian massive migrations since the second quarter of the XX century.

Not to undertake any effort in this field is also a policy: the policy of doing nothing. --- THE ?FUNCTIONALITY? OF A SYSTEM IN MEXICO: Corporatism Over Democracy Although it is not unique to Mexico that the opposition take control of power legislation requiring the Executive to negotiate its political agenda, the historic balance marks a functionality that plays a form of political system based on a simulated democracy legitimated by the dominant elite. --- SPECIAL REPORTS MORE THAN 69,000 VICTIMS DURING THE PERIOD 1980-2000 Violence as a Factor of Underdevelopment in Peru Some of the situations that generated the internal armed conflict in Peru during the 80?s and 90?s were the exclusion, the gap between rich and poor, and the State absence, conditions that opened the path to Sendero Luminoso?s terrorist response. --- EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH EUROPEAN PLAYWRIGHT GISELLE VEGTER Babel of Refugees Nowadays the inhabitants of Babel are us, a new generation of globalized young people who try to understand each other, even though we come from different places and have different customs. --- FROM SEPTEMBER 17 TO OCTOBER 30 Beyond Frontiers: Manifestations of Hispanic-Canadian Creativity The Organizing Committee of the Festival of Images and Words is pleased to present the general program of the 2009 edition. --- UNWANTED WITNESS: ANOTHER VICTIM OF CENSORSHIP IN COLOMBIA Unwanted Documentary of Colombian Reality After being introduced in the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival, the awarded documentary Unwanted Witness remains unknown in Colombia.

No hacer nada en este campo tambi?n es una pol?tica: La pol?tica del no hacer. Pero tambi?n existe la pol?tica del impedimento. --- EL CORPORATIVISMO SE IMPONE SOBRE LA DEMOCRACIA Elecciones en Mexico: La ?Funcionalidad? de un Sistema Aunque no es privativo que la oposici?n tome control del poder legislativo obligando al Ejecutivo a negociar su agenda pol?tica, el balance hist?rico marca una funcionalidad que reproduce una forma de sistema pol?tico sustentado en una simulaci?n democr?tica legitimadora de una ?lite dominante. --- REPORTES ESPECIALES 69,000 VICTIMAS PROVOCO EL CONFLICTO PERUANO EN 20 ANOS La Violencia Como Factor de Subdesarrollo en Per?

Canada Posted by: Greenpeace Canada ---------------------------- Original Message ---------------------------- Subject: Greenpeace disrupts Canadas largest energy company From: "Greenpeace Canada" Date: Wed, September 30, 2009 9:49 am To: seinforma at resist.ca -------------------------------------------------------------------------- This e-alert is available online: http://ems01.com/a/l.x?T=ihcncoppmlijiabeomfedcgkhdmocj&M=18 *************************************************************************** ======================================================================= Greenpeace disrupts Canada?s largest energy company ======================================================================= Right now, daring Greenpeace activists from Canada, France, Germany and Brazil have shut down a bitumen conveyor belt and a blocked a bridge at the Suncor Energy site on the Athabasca River north of Fort McMurray to expose the climate crime of the tar sands. Live streaming video from the action is here. http://ems01.com/a/l.x?T=ihcncoppmlijiabeomfedcgkhdmocj&M=19 Follow our brave activists as they disrupt Suncor?s production of dirty oil and send the message that the tar sands are pushing the world to the brink of climate hell. Activists locked down on the bridge have erected a banner reading: ?Bridge to Climate Hell? to highlight the connections between Suncor?s open-pit mine and bitumen conveyor belt, the company?s upgrader for producing dirty oil and climate chaos. Other activists have floated a banner on the Athabasca reading: ?Dying for Climate Leadership? to focus attention on the frightening disregard for the river and the people who rely on it. The river banner also speaks to the failure of the Canadian government and world leaders to fight climate change. All this action comes just two weeks after the successful Greenpeace blockade at a Shell open-pit mine and just a week after Rajendra Pachauri, head of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the world?s leading body on climate science, said that Canada is failing on climate action, and should consider putting the tar sands on hold. Read the news release and watch for updates on the Greenpeace web site. Today?s action supports Greenpeace?s KYOTOplus campaign to convince the Harper government to become a leader at the United Nations climate conference in Copenhagen in December. ======================================================================= ============== Take Action ============== ======================================================================= 1) Sign the KYOTOplus petition and become a climate defender! http://ems01.com/a/l.x?T=ihcncoppmlijiabeomfedcgkhdmocj&M=20 2) Email Prime Minister Harper.

Ahora mismo, audaces activistas de Greenpeace Canada, Francia, Alemania y Brasil han cerrado una banda transportadora de bet?n y bloqueado un puente en una instalacion de la compania de energ?a Suncor en el R?o Athabasca, al norte de Fort McMurray, para exponer el crimen ecologico de la playa de alquitr?n. Vea aqui el video de la operacion en vivo y en directo: http://ems01.com/a/l.x?T=ihcncoppmlijiabeomfedcgkhdmocj&M=19 Siga a nuestros valientes activistas valientes cuando ellos interrumpen la producci?n de petr?leo sucio de Suncor y env?an el mensaje que la playa de alquitran empuja el mundo al borde del infierno climatico. Los activistas cerraron el puente y han erigido una pancarta que dice: "Puente al Infierno Climatico" para interrumpir la conexion entre la mina de hoyo abierto y la banda transportadora de bet?n de la compa??a, que produce petroleo sucio y caos climatico. Otros activistas han puesto una pancarta en el rio Athabasca: que dice ?Muriendo por un liderato climatico? para llamar la atencion en la indiferencia espantosa para el r?o y la gente que depende de el. La pancarta hace alusion tambien al fracaso de los l?deres del gobierno Canadiense y mundiales en la lucha contra el cambio de clima. Esta acci?n ocurre s?lo dos semanas despu?s del bloqueo de Greenpeace en un hoyo abierto de Shell y una semana despu?s de que Rajendra Pachauri, la cabeza del Panel Intergubernamental en el Cambio de Clima (IPCC), el cuerpo principal del mundo en la ciencia de clima, dijo que Canad? falla en la acci?n climatica y deber?a suspenderel proyecto de la playa de alquitr?n. La acci?n de hoy apoya la campa?a de KYOTOplus del Greenpeace para convencer el gobierno Harper de convertirse en l?der en la conferencia sobre el clima de Naciones Unidas en Copenhague en diciembre. --- Visit www.seinforma.ca -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
