Το φάντασμα του Μελανσόν πάνω από την Ευρώπη

Το φάντασμα του Ζαν-Λυκ Μελανσόν πλανιέται πάνω από την Ευρώπη, ξεκινάει η μακροσκελής ανάλυσης της σημερινής Washington Post, ενόψει των γαλλικών προεδρικών εκλογών της Κυριακής. Η αμερικανική εφημερίδα σχολιάζει την ανοδική πορεία της υποψηφιότητας Μελανσόν, που διεκδικεί πλέον μια από τις δύο πρώτες θέσεις οι οποίες οδηγούν στο δεύτερο γύρο και την προεδρία της Γαλλίας.

Στην τελευταία στροφή των αμφίρροπων προεδρικών εκλογών της Γαλλίας, γράφει η εφημερίδα, ένας αθυρόστομος 65άρης αριστερός ο οποίος εμφανίζεται συχνά στην προεκλογική εκστρατεία μέσω ολογράμματος, με δωρεάν παιχνίδια στο διαδίκτυο και βίντεο στο YouTube, που προτείνει την εθνικοποίηση των μεγαλύτερων τραπεζών της Γαλλίας και επαναδιαπραγμάτευση της σχέσης της με την Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση, είναι τώρα στα ύψη στις δημοσκοπήσεις.

Εδώ και μήνες, οι αναλυτές, έχουν χαρακτηρίσει τις επερχόμενες εκλογές «Στάλινγκραντ της Ευρώπης», ένα κρίσιμο σημείο καμπής που θα καθορίσει το μέλλον της χώρας και της ηπείρου.

Ο Μελανσόν είναι υποψήφιος του κινήματος "Ανυπότακτη Γαλλία", σε συμμαχία με το Γαλλικό Κομουνιστικό Κόμμα. Οι τελευταίες δημοσκοπήσεις τον δείχνουν σε μικρή απόσταση από τον Εμμανουέλ Μακρόν, που θεωρείται ως το φαβορί και την ακροδεξιά Μαρίν Λε Πεν. Τις τελευταίες μέρες μιας πραγματικά χωρίς προηγούμενο καμπάνιας,η απροσδόκητη άνοδος του Μελανσόν είναι μια υπενθύμιση ότι η ριζική αλλαγή είναι στον αέρα και ότι οι εξτρεμιστές Απόστολοι- δεξιοί ή αριστεροί- μπορούν να έρθουν σύντομα στην εξουσία.

Η απρόσμενη άνοδος του έχει ήδη προκαλέσει πανικό μέσω των χρηματοπιστωτικών αγορών..Οι επενδυτές, έχουν αρχίσει να πουλάνε μανιωδώς γαλλικά ομόλογα, ενώ ο επικεφαλής της μεγαλύτερης συνδικαλιστικής οργάνωσης της Γαλλίας επέκρινε αυτό που περιέγραψε ως το«μάλλον ολοκληρωτικό όραμα» του Μελανσόν.

Αλλά χιλιάδες άλλοι ανταποκρίθηκαν με χαρά. Σχεδόν 25.000 άνθρωποι, κατά κύριο λόγο από τη μεσαία τάξη, βρέθηκαν τη προηγούμενη εβδομάδα στη Λιλ για να τον ακούσουν… Ο Μελανσόν, ντυμένος με το κλασικό του σακάκι Μάο, με διακριτικό χιούμορ, πολυμάθεια και ρητορική δεινότητα, μάγεψε το κοινό του, μέσα και έξω από ένα τοπικό γήπεδο, που κουνούσε κομουνιστικό πανό, παλαιστινιακές σημαίες και πλακάτ με το ελληνικό γράμμα φ, επίσημο σύμβολο της εκστρατείας.

Stephen Hawking confirms: The problem is Capitalism, not robots!

globinfo freexchange According to world famous physicist Stephen Hawking, the rising use of automated machines may mean the end of human rights – not just jobs. But he’s not talking about robots with artificial intelligence taking over the world, he’s talking about the current capitalist political system and its major players. On Reddit, Hawking said that the economic gap between the rich and the poor will continue to grow as more jobs are automated by machines, and the owners of said machines hoard them to create more wealth for themselves. The insatiable thirst for capitalist accumulation bestowed upon humans by years of lies and terrible economic policy has affected technology in such a way that one of its major goals has become to replace human jobs. If we do not take this warning seriously, we may face unfathomable corporate domination. If we let the same people who buy and sell our political system and resources maintain control of automated technology, the...

The West's hypocrisy has been exposed: This is how

Geopolitical Economy Report Donald Trump's attacks on longtime US "allies" have forced Western leaders to admit their warmongering foreign policy was hypocritical. Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney said the truth in his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos: the "rules-based order" was "false". Ben Norton explains how the global balance of power is shifting.

Iran could be the US’s Boer war: a hollow victory that marks the beginning of the end of empire

US leaders anticipated a walkover. Now they’re embroiled in a conflict that could hasten the end of US economic dominance by Larry Elliott Nobody gave the Boers a prayer when the war in South Africa began in 1899. It was farmers ranged against the might of the British empire, and the expectation was that resistance would quickly crumble. Eventually, might did prevail. Britain won the Boer war, but it was a hollow victory that took the best part of three years to achieve and came at a high cost. The blow to British prestige – coming at a time when its global hegemony was under threat from fast-growing countries such as the US – was severe. Far from highlighting the extent of Britain’s power, it exposed its limitations. A century and a quarter later, the US risks being embroiled in its equivalent of the Boer war. What should have been a walkover threatens to become a prolonged conflict. The Iranians are using guerrilla tactics, just as the Boers did, with much success. There ...

The dominant elite ready to break the "social contract"

Hyper-automation will allow the super-rich to “get rid” of the rest by system failure Since the French revolution and the new form of the urban states-democracies, the ruling class had to make the so-called "social contract" with the majority. From the moment that the dominant urban class took the power from feudalism and monarchy, should had to find a way to protect the means of production and the labor force. Therefore, the ethnic consciousness in each state served to bound the majority in order to shape national armies to protect the ruling class interests. In exchange, the ruling urban class had given the so-called social state, labor rights, etc., through the nation-state as a carrier and guarantor for all these benefits for the middle and lower classes. Since then, there have been a lot of battles and the majority managed to conquer some benefits. At the start of 20th century, the technology progress had brought the mass production. Western s...

Maggie's ghost: What is haunting Europe

by system failure "A ghost is haunting Europe — the ghost of Communism", Marx wrote in the Communist Manifesto, in 1847. He couldn't probably predict that the ghost above Europe in 2013, would have been totally different. Thatcher's dogmatic faith in free market, in minimizing state's presence, was a basic characteristic of her political perception. One could wonder, why the "Iron Lady" silenced in front of the facts during last decade, especially after the global economic crisis. Is it because of her age? Was she believed in the routine motto that "this is just a capitalism's cycle and will recover soon"? Or is it because she finally understood, rather late, that this was not an ideal model of the free market, but the prevail of a peculiar bank-debtocracy? Margaret Thatcher, is a characteristic case of a politician, who's fanatic faith in a specific perception, wouldn't let her see the real picture, what was this per...

Billionaires are social distancing in super yachts as tens of millions lose jobs

Everyday, it becomes clearer: the COVID-19 pandemic is hitting poor, working, and marginalized communities the hardest. Millions of workers – especially low-wage retail, food service, hospitality, and care workers – have faced the terrible choice daily between going to work and risking their health, or staying home and risking their paychecks. Many other workers don’t even have that choice, with around 30 million people in the US filing for unemployment in the past six weeks. But billionaires don’t face these same problems. As tens of millions have lost their jobs over the past two months, billionaire wealth soared by a whopping $282 billion between March 18 and April 10, according to a new study from the Institute for Policy Studies. And while finding enough space to wait out the pandemic is something many struggle with, billionaires have been escaping to their second (or third, or fourth) homes to ride it out in luxury – all while they position themselves to ...

How Western societies lost their faith in Vision

Why people don't rise up massively today? Why there are no real revolutions? How we tolerate all things that have been imposed to us? These questions come up in people's minds more and more often today in Greece and abroad, due to the economic crisis. Some theories are circulated as an answer, among these, explanations which include, for example, the psychosynthesis of modern Greeks, but the truth is that there is something more fundamental behind this passive behaviour and concerns not only Greece, but the entire Western world. by system failure Prior to the beginning of the 20th century, Friedrich Nietzsche declares God's death and Western world will put all its hopes in science. Laplace's Determinism leads to the almighty man, who through science, can find all the answers for the world. Technology, which naturally comes from scientific discoveries, promises prosperity and a better life for the majority. Science becomes the central "pylon...
