Porto Alegre Delegate to speak in Dublin Friday

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday June 26, 2003 13:45author by Kevin Wingfield - Socialist Workers Partyauthor email swp at clubi dot ie Report this post to the editors

Lula, Chavez, Zapatistas; A Continent in Revolt.

On Friday night Mike Gonzalez, author, broadcaster and activist will speak on Latin America: A Continent in Revolt in the Central Hotel Exchequer St Dublin at 8.00pm

Mike Gonzalez has written several books and articles on Latin America. He is a regular contributor to radio programmes in Britain on the issue and was a delegate to the World Social Forum.

He is a member of the Scottish Socialist Party and an political activist in Scotland.

At this meeting he looks at how the movement against neo-liberalism has exploded on the continent. A decade ago, Latin America was held up as an ‘emerging market’ for speculators in the global financial system. But their involvement has led to devastation and poverty.

Gonzalez will look at some of the main debates inside the anti-capitalist movement on the continent. Will the election of Lula bring real change to Brazil? Do the Zapatistas provide a new model on how to organise? Why do the US want rid of Chavez?

Public Meeting
Chavez, Lula, Zapatistas:
Latin America: A Continent in Revolt
Speaker: Mike Gonzalez
(Author and Lecturer in Hispanic Studies)
Friday June 27th 8pm
Central Hotel Exchequer St

Hosted by the Socialist Workers Party
