21D Building a Transnational Systemic Strike for 2013-2014

Para el 21 de diciembre de 2012 se ha convocado una asamblea con el fin de coordinar una huelga sistémica transnacional.

La convocatoria se ha realizado mediante una lista de correo internacional.

Antecedentes

There has been a good discussions on the square list, besides those on the facebook pages and groups as well as n-1 groups on the need for and the issues around the new generation mass actions, like general strikes, or to better formulate it: massive direct actions that would make a systemic impact as general strike has made/make in the industrial times or spaces.

Since 2011, we had Spanish, UK, Greek, Oakland, West Coast and May 1st General Strikes initiated by people, many general strikes in the other European countries took place and may be much more in rest of the world. We finally had #14N. the first trans European general strike last month. They were however limited in time and more or less in the form of traditional strikes impact was not systemic.

Now it might be the time to launch a long lasting project and process of discussion, exchange, networking and organaising new generation systemic actions that would combine new tools and forms like leaks, hacks, art, and peace strikes, alternative model of production, consumption, and distribution, free sharing commoning so on.with the traditional ways and forms What kind of systemic action do we need to and can build to make a systemic impact so we can turn the tide in favor of the people?

An idea can be starting a regular work group to discuss and brain storm based on the experiences of 2011 and 2012 and further build on the idea and see what can we do in coming years.

Convocatoria

On the 21st of December 2012 we are holding a mumble meeting to brain storm and exchange on how to build an indefinite, systemic general strike like mass direct action.

This is a call if for a first online gathering to start regular mumble meetings to evaluate the experience gained in 2011 and 2012 in regard to 'mass systemic direct action' and building on that further the work towards how to build indefinite, systemic new generation general strikes in the coming years, preferably in 2013-2014
