<div></div>
<div><br><br> Dear all,<br><br> please find attached a Manifesto for a global democracy plus<br> related email exchange between Heikki Patomäki (professor,<br>
researcher, member of the Board of Attac Finland) and<br> Fernando<br> Iglesias, one of the people behind the initiative. I will<br> refer to these at some point of our meeting today.<br>
<br> Regards,<br><br> Eeva<br><br><br> ----------------<br><br> Dear Fernando,<br> many thanks, this version looks fantastic. I am<br>
all in favour<br> and will sign with no hesitation whatsoever. I will<br> spread the<br> message as far and wide as I can.<br> As said, London in March is possible. I will be<br>
attending the<br> International Studies Association conference in San Diego<br> from<br> 1 to 4 April and probably travelling directly from there to<br> Kyoto. However, on my way to San Diego, I could possible make<br>
a stop over in New York.<br> My best regards,<br> Heikki<br> ----- Original Message -----<br><br></div></div>

<br> /Dear Heikki,/<br><br> / /<br><br> /After a while, we have finished the provisory “final”
<div><br> version<br><br> of the Manifesto for a Global Democracy. We already have also<br> a version in Italian and Spanish. Let me know what you<br></div> think./<br><br> /I am also copying my original letter about it, in order you<br>
remember the whole initiative. /<br><br> /The idea is a big meeting in London (may be also New
<div><br> York, if<br><br> needed) where to make a call for Global Democracy to the<br> leaders and public of the world. We shouldn’t let the<br> momentum<br></div> created by Arab spring, occupy movements, etc. pass away. /<br>
<br> /Of course, your contribution is vital for all this.
<div><br> Would You<br><br> agree on signing the manifesto and invite others prestigious<br></div> authors to do so? Please, let me know./<br><br> /Regards/<br><br> / /<br>
<br> /Fernando/<br><br> / /<br><br> / /<br><br> / /<br><br> /Dear fellow and friends,/<br><br> / /<br><br> /Recent developments continue to put on the agenda the
<div><br> need of<br><br> a fairer and more democratic global order. Revolts in the<br> Arab<br> world, Madrid, Athens, Occupy Wall St., etc. offer a<br> particular momentum for campaigning for a global<br>
democracy and<br></div> its related institutions. /<br><br> / /<br><br> /Some attempts of intellectuals for contributing to bring a
<div><br><br> democratic address to the world social movements have been<br> valuable but limited by its partisan (anticapitalistic and<br> antisystemic) statements and contents. However, they have<br>
showed an important way to contribute to global on-going<br></div> matters. /<br><br> /What about if many intellectuals of the world were able to
<div><br><br> reach an agreement that put together the separate parts of<br> what we should consider a starting movement for global<br> democracy? What about if –say- Held, Beck, Archibugi,<br>
Marramao, Sassen, Patomaki, Mangabeira Unger, Teivainen,<br> Sennet, Berman, Monbiot, Strauss, Falk, Levi, Rifkin, Negri,<br> Hardt, Chomsky and many others recognized authors (open for<br>
suggestions) were able to agree on a common statement –a<br> Manifesto- for Global Democracy which stresses their shared<br></div> values beyond their differences?/<br><br> /Couldn’t it be followed by similar initiatives on the
<div><br><br> political and civil-society field, and perhaps become the<br></div> starting point of a Global Democracy Network or so on? /<br><br> / /<br><br> /Well, this is the text I am proposing to You in its Spanish,
<div><br><br> English and Italian versions, together with the idea of a big<br> press-conference (may be London, March or April?) capable of<br> capture the attention of global mass-media and the world<br>
</div> public opinion./<br><br> /You are the first and the few to which I am presenting this
<div><br><br> work that was developed by me and the team of Democracia<br> Global- Buenos Aires. Any suggestion –being it political,<br></div> organizational or grammatical- is really welcome./<br>
<br> /Let me know what You think./<br><br> / /<br><br> /Best regards/<br><br> /Fernando/<br><br> / /<br><br> / /<br><br> / /<br><br>
