Sylvain Froidevaux

First As Tragedy, Then As Farce: The economic crisis and the end of global 
capitalism
Slavoj Zizek at the RSA

Tae Sail On Them Is No Their Fate "....What persists in the collective 
psyche is marked by sadness, regret, pride and anger but also resilience, 
inspired by experience and an understanding that the struggle for 
self-determination or “a decent living” for the working classes is ongoing. 
We hope this film endures as a document, a small remnant of this struggle...."

Discussion with Ailsa McKay, Professor of Economics, Glasgow Caledonian 
University.

Open Forum

Education, movement building Open discussion.

At present when there is a healthy and active interest in alternative 
education practices, or some would say real education, (why should "we' 
always be the "alternative"?) From the new "Free Hetherington" 
squataversity to the "Independent Resource Centre" in Clydebank whose 
history goes back to the 70s and an interesting selection of projects in 
between. All are part of the "rich tapestry" of self education ideas that 
anyone can tune into. Bring your ideas to the forum.
