January 28, 2013. Nikolas Dertilis, the last colonel of the Junta (1967-1974) has died in Athens. Dertilis spent the past 38 years in prison.

November 18, 1973. Colonel Dertilis is in a military jeep, outside the destroyed gate of the Polytechnic. On the opposite side of the road, at the corner of Patision and Stournari street, police-men are beating up a young student. Momentarily, he escapes. Dertilis pulls a handgun and shoots. “The young man fell down like a chicken”, testifies Dertilis’ driver, then 21-year old Antonis Agritelis, one year later – and he continues: “after the member, Dertilis re-entered the jeep as if nothing had happened and, patting me on the back, he told me: “what do you say, eh? A 45-year old man, and I got him in the head, with one bullet!”… (Michail Mirogiannis, greek original)

Heirs to the Unified Socialist Party (Parti Socialiste Unifié - PSU, 1960-1990) and the Red & Green Alternative (Alternative rouge et verte - AREV, 1989-1998), Les Alternatifs are a pro self-management socialist current.

Il bel libro Lavoro Democrazia Autogestione edito dalla casa editrice Aracne sulle Correnti Libertarie nel Sindacalismo Italiano (1944-1969) è un libro necessario, lavoro dello storico Giorgio Sacchetti, che riporta in luce attraverso una rigorosa ricerca della fonti un periodo della storia sindacale di questo paese dove nella grande ristrutturazione capitalistica del dopoguerra anche i libertari, almeno quelli su posizioni di classe si misurarono.

Ante los últimos acontecimientos conocidos en La Araucanía, el fallecimiento del matrimonio de latifundistas Luchsinger-Mackay, la formalización del machi Celestino Córdova, la huelga de hambre de los presos políticos mapuche, las medidas represivas del Estado y el gobierno actual en contra del Pueblo Mapuche, y en general contra todos los movimientos que nacen en el seno del pueblo, el Frente de Estudiantes Libertarios – Chile declara:

Héritiers du Parti socialiste unifié (1960-1990) puis de l’Alternative rouge et verte (1989-1998), les Alternatifs incarnent un courant socialiste autogestionnaire. [http://www.anarkismo.net/article/24794]

Assemblea del 25 gennaio 2013 a Roma
Una cinquantina di attivisti hanno partecipato all'assemblea delle Rete nazionale salute e sicurezza sul lavoro e sui territori ospitata nei locali dell'Unicobas di Roma, Si è trattato di un'assemblea in parte di formazione- grazie agli interventi di Gatti sulle nanopatologie, ovvero sulle patologie da particelle ultrasottili, e Aucone, sul rischio sismico, ma in cui la parte centrale, ovviamente, è stato però l'incontro con i tre delegati operai di Taranto, da anni , forse decenni, attivi sul fronte ILVA.

Une proposition d’action et de recherche pour le mouvement libertaire dans ce début turbulent du XXIè siècle doit nécessairement incorporer un bref diagnostic de la situation. Un diagnostic qui se résume en un seul mot: la crise.

On Saturday 26th January over 200 people took to the streets of Halesowen to demand the reinstatement of four members of the Maths department who had been sacked. On a cold day, with snow on the ground, there was a fantastic array of banners and placards showing how far people had come to express solidarity with the Halesowen 4.

Music and speeches made for a carnival atmosphere as trade unionists, educators, students and members of the local community assembled outside the gates of Halesowen College.

A radical contribution to African-American History Month
For Black History Month: In 1941, the African-American labor leader, A. Philip Randolph made a call for a national demonstration by African-Americans in Washington, D.C. The demonstration never occurred, because of sabotage by White and Black liberals. But the organizing for it, and the movement behind it, continuing during World War II, had a big impact on U.S. Black people. It was an important influence preparing for the Civil Rights and Black Liberation struggles of the 1950s and ‘60s.
