Michael Albert speaking engagements in Dublin for Oct 11th, 12th & 13th Tuesday 11th
Title: Alternatives to Capitalism and the IMF Bailout: Parecon – Participatory Economics
Time: 20:00 – 23:00
Address: Central Hotel, Exchequer St Dublin 2
Description:
Today's capitalist system has brought with it war, economic crisis, ecological decay, massive wealth inequality, alienation, authoritarianism and social breakdown. Are these problems inevitable, or could they be overcome in a different system? And if so, how? These issues, perhaps for the first time in history, have become a matter of survival.
Michael Albert, co-author of 'ParEcon: Life After Capitalism', co-founder of ZCommunications and leading US social activist will present 'Participatory Economics', a vision for a type of democratic economy based on equitable co-operation that is put forward as an alternative to capitalism and also to other 20th century systems that have gone under the label 'socialism'. It includes new institutions that seek to foster self-management, equity, diversity and solidarity. Parecon is a direct and natural outgrowth of hundreds of years of struggle for economic justice as well as contemporary efforts with their accumulated wisdom and lessons.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9Great times indeed, how it looks now that the capitalist system has fallen to its knees, and with more #occupywallstreet and #occupydamestreet might just be put to bed... How great that Micheal Albert will be over, when the #IRISHREVOLUTION is in its infant steps... There is tonnes we can learn from him and his knowledge of movements, Hes been involved since 1965...
Micheal Albert, founder of Zmag / Znet / Zcommunications, talks about the "The Stickiness Problem" in which he points out that many people have come and gone from the movement, why is this, how can it be remedied and what that might lead to. I feel we have a lot to learn from this and over the past year have made massive strides in creating spaces, acts, events, systems to allow us to get "stickier"... the whole OCCUPY movement seems to thrive on that
Heres an audio from the "Life After Capitalism" talk some years back, found at http://radio.indymedia.org/news/2004/08/2286.php
