Privatization from a leftist perspective
Filed Under Privatization | Leave a Comment
The network ppg (privatization, public goods) asks from a leftist perspective for impacts of privatization on (re-)distribution of societal ressources, on (re-)distribution of political “goods” (effects of domination, democracy, participation, and access) and on the dimension of political/social conflicts. It is concerned with the interrelation of property, domination and equality.

Financial Crisis. Does it affect us?
Filed Under Finances | 3 Comments
Financial Meltdown. The US- government has agreed to a 700 bn bail-out to rescue the financial market. The largest bail-out of all times. This is all highly dramatic. However, despite all the drastic measures, there are contradictory messages: The banking system as a whole is not under threat. The private savings are supposedly safe. The consequences of the huge bankruptcies in the US for Europe/ Germany/ the global financial system are unpredictable. Additionally, there are these experts who voice their concern in a refreshingly open fashion: we do not really know what is going on (first hints are collected at the RLS City Crash Counter), what is connected to what and what is going to happen next.

New Policy Paper: Crisis of Privatisation
Filed Under De-Privatization | Leave a Comment
We recommend the new rls Policy Paper (1/2008) headlined: Crisis of Privatisation – Return of the Public Sphere. Neoliberal privatisation is suffering from a legitimacy crisis, an efficiency crisis (concerning prices, quality and access), and a crisis of profitability – but crises do not necessarily lead to an end of privatisations, rather they lead to new ways and strategies of designing them more effective. Politicians and investors are looking for other (investment) opportunities. Nevertheless, we can observe shifts in the social climate that enable successes in anti-privatisation campaigns, foster remunicipalisations and the debate about the public sphere. Read more (pdf)
