Yes, I do. However, the way things went in the first stage of the Alliance were not always faithful to the spirit and the lines of this Charter. We should strive to make words and deeds meet more consistently.

Yes, both PACS and myself will continue to be part of the Alliance.
Interested in being part of :

... sur la Charte constitutive
| 27 juin 2005 | en |

1/ It needs to make more explicit the methodology that is proposed to cope with the challenge of being decentralized and relying on a guarantor group and on a foundation. In certain occasions the international process of the first stage failed to be collective and participatory. The initiative taken by the FPH may be opportune, but it risks to ignore the accumulation of experience and thought, as well as the dynamics of collective decision-making developed by the webs of allies that collaborated in the first phase. How can we overcome this risk ?
2/ The emphasis on building a global community is highly satisfactory. This coincides perfectly with how PACS understood the Alliance from the outset.
3/ “A rejection” : not only all forms of exchange are reduced to commodity trade, but also people themselves, their work, knowledge and creativity, their bodies, their souls and their yearnings.
4/ Ethics : very well put. However, it contrasts with certain instances of the first stage. In the second stage we must endeavor to be much more consistent.
I need clarification about the “rules of confidentiality”. They are not mentioned anywhere else in the Charter, what do they refer to ?

I think that one of the main ethical principles to emphasize is the respect for the diversity of thoughts and practices within the Alliance and the endeavor to create unanimities, common projects and concerted action without sacrificing that diversity.

1/ Memory of a plural history : The sentence "... its existence depends on its capacity for continuous institution and consolidation" is bizarre and contradicts the former sentence "The Alliance is not an institution". Institutional consolidation is not what we intend, right ? We are working towards new forms of organization and collective action which operate organically without becoming institutionalized.
2/ The other procedures seem fine to me.

1/ I welcome the proposal of the Common Calendar. However, I feel it lacks clear tasks and aims for the new stage :
 more intimate collaboration between the various workgroups, workshops and colleges of the Alliance ;
 articulation with other social movements (the WSSE is actively pursuing that) ;
 pressure for consistent public policies and for institutional transformation of agencies of national and global governance ;
 production of collective documents and educational materials on transversal themes that go beyond the products of the first stage ;
 deeper reflection based on a transdisciplinary approach ;
 continental meetings and a global meeting before the end of the new stage.
