---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: La Quadrature du Net <contact(a)laquadrature.net> Date: Sat, Jan 24, 2015 at 12:11 AM Subject: [opennetcoalition] Net Neutrality: the Member States and Commission about to turn their back on the Parliament's Vote! To: opennetcoalition(a)laquadrature.net Themes: NET NEUTRALITY, COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, GUNTHER OETTINGER La Quadrature du Net – For immediate release Permanent link: https://www.laquadrature.net/en/net-neutrality-the-member-states-and-commis… Net Neutrality: the Member States and Commission about to turn their back on the Parliament's Vote! *** Paris, 23 January 2015 – On January 20th, La Quadrature du Net along with other European organisations co-signed an open letter [1] calling once more the EU's Member States to adopt clear and strict rules to protect Net Neutrality. However, a negociation document [2] shows that at the same moment, Member States were one towards the end of a free Internet. It is time for the European Parliament to get back to work on this issue and defend a real protection of Net Neutrality, against oligopolistic strategies of the large Internet actors backed by governments. *** Just as civil society was calling the Council of the European Union to protect Net Neutrality, the latter was studying a negociation document [3] showing it is about to allow unacceptable violations of this founding principle of the Internet, casting away once and for all the European Parliament's vote [4] of April 2014. This vote in the Parliament had been a strong sign in favour of the rights of European citizens and their interests in Net neutrality. It suggested a balanced compromise based on a precise and strict definition of Net neutrality. The adopted dispositions also allowed operators to develop innovative access offers (“specialised services”) while maintaining the non-discrimination principle in order to simultaneously protect users' freedom of choice, competition among access and applications providers and innovations newcomers may bring. The short term interests of large telco operators and Internet giants must not dictate public policy. Today, in light of the national governments and European Commissioner Günther Oettinger's maneuvers, it is time for the European Parliament elected in last May to take the matters in its own hands and prove it is determined to defend last spring's positive development. As an unprecedented citizen movement in favor of Net neutrality is taking place in the USA and Barack Obama recently called for a determined protection of this principle, Members of the European Parliament must play their part in the international debate and ensure Europe leads the way with a legislation that protects a Free Internet. La Quadrature du Net calls on all Members of the European Parliament to urgently take part in the ongoing debate and reaffirm their attachment to last spring's agreement, refusing Internet giants and large operators' oligopolistic leanings as well as the Commission and the Member States guilty complicity. * References * 1. http://www.laquadrature.net/files/NN_letter_to_ambassadors_20150120.pdf 2. http://www.statewatch.org/news/2015/jan/eu-council-net-neutrality-5439-15.p… 3. http://www.statewatch.org/news/2015/jan/eu-council-net-neutrality-5439-15.p… 4. https://www.laquadrature.net/en/net-neutrality-a-great-step-forward-for-the… ** About La Quadrature du Net ** La Quadrature du Net is an advocacy group that defends the rights and freedoms of citizens on the Internet.

The report combined insightful analyses of global power along with some compelling infographics. Here is a list of what we published. We welcome sharing of the analysis by forwarding on this email to interested networks/people or retweeting our materials via @transinstitute <https://twitter.com/transinstitute> or sharing them using Facebook. <https://www.facebook.com/TransnationalInstitute> We also welcome comments and feedback on the materials as well as ideas and suggestions for State of Power 2016... State of Power 2015 http://www.tni.org/stateofpower2015 The fourth edition of our annual State of Power report, coinciding with the international meeting in Switzerland of what Susan George calls “the Davos class”. This series seeks to examine different dimensions of power, unmask the key holders of power in our globalised world, and identify sources of transformative counter-power. [image: application/pdf icon]The State of Power 2015 - complete report (pdf, 2.48MB) <http://www.tni.org/sites/www.tni.org/files/download/tni_state-of-power-2015…> - Individual chapters of *State of Power 2015 *(with summaries) can be read here <http://www.tni.org/category/series/state-power-2015> - Infographic on Chevron and the architecture of impunity <http://www.tni.org/infographic/architecture-impunity> (23 Jan) - Essay: Davos - where journalism is corporate PR and change is consumer choice <http://www.tni.org/article/davos-where-journalism-pr-and-change-consumer-ch…> (23 Jan) - Who are the Davos class? See our infographic <http://davosclass.tni.org> and essay <http://www.tni.org/article/world-economic-forum-history-and-analysis> developed with occupy.com (21 Jan) This year, TNI experimented with ‘crowd-sourcing’ by putting out an open call for contributions. We were keen to engage activist-scholars outside our immediate circles and curious as to how this would shape the content of the report. The compiled essays cover an impressive breadth of themes, from corporate law to the dominance of the financial sector, from big mining to food speculation. They also bring to the fore social struggles to challenge power dynamics, from Mexico to Mozambique, from Canada to Italy and Greece. *Contents* *The new Global Corporate Law* <http://www.tni.org/sites/www.tni.org/files/download/01_tni_state-of-power-2…> (pdf, 179 KB) *Juan Hernández Zubizarreta* How transnational corporations have succeeded in replacing rule of law with Global Corporate law, using a multitude of norms, treaties and agreements - most recently the Transatlantic Trade & Investment Partnership - to secure their rights to profit above human rights. *Political Capture by the Financial Industry* <http://www.tni.org/sites/www.tni.org/files/download/02_tni_state-of-power-2…> (pdf, 184KB) *Manolis Kalaitzake* How did the financial sector succeed escaping censure and even effective regulation despite the global economic crisis? Through the case study of the proposed Financial Transaction Tax, Kalaitzake looks at how the financial sector succeeded in capturing policy and politicians and how we might challenge their power. *The True Stakes of Internet Governance* <http://www.tni.org/sites/www.tni.org/files/download/03_tni_state-of-power-2…> (pdf, 103KB) * Richard Hill* Many people understand how the Internet has revolutionised society, but have we really grasped the power implications? Richard Hill shows how US policy-makers have used the ad hoc ‘multi-stakeholder’ governance of the Internet for political and economic ends. *Gambling on Hunger and Climate Change* <http://www.tni.org/sites/www.tni.org/files/download/04_tni_state-of-power-2…> (pdf, 520KB) * Sasha Breger Bush* Financial speculation has not just rewarded bankers; it has played a major role in fuelling hunger, land dispossession and climate change. Yet the financial sector innovates false financial ‘solutions’ to the very problems it creates. *Mexico: Challenging Drug Prohibition from Below* <http://www.tni.org/sites/www.tni.org/files/download/05_tni_state-of-power-2…> (pdf, 1010KB) *Sebastian Scholl* The horrific forced disappearance of 43 students in Iguala reveals how organised crime and corruption thrive in conditions of institutional or democratic weakness, shaped to a large extent by distinctive transnational relations (importantly, in this case, with the US). Fortunately groups like the Movement for Peace with Justice and Dignity are showing a burgeoning ‘social power‘ that has the potential to change politics and policy. *Contesting Big Mining from Canada to Mozambique* <http://www.tni.org/sites/www.tni.org/files/download/06_tni_state-of-power-2…> (pdf, 358KB) * Judith Marshall* How have mining transnational companies and the extractive industry become so powerful in every country, no matter their political shade? Marshall shows how the ‘promiscuously intimate’ relationship between governments and companies developed and how we might resist. *Organising workers’ Counter-power in Italy and Greece* <http://www.tni.org/sites/www.tni.org/files/download/07_tni_state-of-power-2…> (pdf, 142KB) * Lorenzo Zamponi and Markos Vogiatzoglou* Austerity in Greece and Italy has struck workers' particularly hard, but it has also been the context for radical innovations in ’organising the unorganised’, building new kinds of work spaces and even taking control of production. *How Economics bolstered Power by obscuring it* <http://www.tni.org/sites/www.tni.org/files/download/08_tni_state-of-power-2…> (pdf, 177KB) * Michael Perelman* Economists consistently have upheld the power of elites, at times by taking their side overtly, but most often by ignoring or obscuring power, giving economics a veneer of science, in which the impact on people and the environment is hidden from public view. *In addition to these featured essays in the book, a number of other excellent submissions were received, which can be seen in our 'recommended reading' <http://www.tni.org/category/series/recommended-reading-state-power>* section. On 10/08/2014 03:03 PM, Nick Buxton wrote: Dear friends and allies of TNI, I am writing to ask for your help in distributing this call for essays for Transnational Institute (TNI)'s flagship annual 'State of Power' report. TNI in the last four years has been producing an annual 'State of Power' report that examines corporate and elite power and also counter-power from different angles and is released at the time of the World Economic Forum in Davos. The report has taken the form of essays and infographics: you can see previous editions here http://www.tni.org/category/series/state-power. It has been our most popular report by far and is now eagerly anticipated by many activists, movements and scholars worldwide. This year we decided to open up the call for essays to everyone (*see draft call below)*. We are particularly open to essays by young activist scholars and those based in the Global South. The timing is tight this year (abstracts by the end of this month) but we are open to reworked versions of existing essays as well as new analysis - and hope the popular profile of our report will get the best analysis out to an audience beyond academic circles. *Perhaps you might have a paper you would like to distribute, or perhaps you are on an email list which you could send this to, or know people with whom you collaborate who should participate?* Any help in spreading the call is appreciated. If you are able to copy stateofpower(a)tni.org that helps me keep track of where the call has gone. Thanks in advance. Best wishes, Nick Call for papers for TNI's State of Power report Transnational Institute (TNI) is issuing an open call for essays/short papers for its forthcoming* State of Power* report launched in late January 2015 to coincide with the World Economic Forum in Davos. TNI’s annual *State of Power* reports have, since their launch in 2012 <http://www.tni.org/report/state-corporate-power-2012>, become a must-see reference point for citizens, activists and academics concerned with understanding the nature of power in our globalised world. With a mixture of compelling infographics and insightful essays, *State of Power* has examined dimensions of power (economic, political, cultural, social), exposed the key players who control power, and highlighted movements of counter-power seeking to transform our world. *Understanding power* In 2014/2015, TNI is opening up the call to the public, particularly the progressive academic community, in order to pull in the best analysis on power. TNI is keen to interrogate how power is defined, distributed and functions in our globalised world; to expose the often invisible bodies, corporations and others who exercise influence and control over public policy; to understand the mechanisms by which power is both acquired acquired, used, manipulated and maintained; to understand shifts in power, even amongst elites, that provide openings for social movements; and to highlight the growing sources of counter-power, their potential and contradictions, and how they might be supported in advancing social and environmental justice. *Themes* TNI is particularly interested in essays that relate to areas we most closely work on such as corporate impunity, trade and investment policies, land and agrarian issues, resource grabbing, public services, security and civil liberties, social movements and counter-power (see http://www.tni.org/listing/work-areas) However we are ultimately interested in the best analysis (whatever the topic) if it approaches power from the critical perspective held by movements engaged in the struggle for social and environmental justice and political transformation. For an idea of the kind of essays we are interested in, please read the essays featured in State of Power 2014: http://www.tni.org/briefing/state-power-2014 <http://www.tni.org/briefing/state-power-2014%20> As timing is tight, TNI is happy to publish reworked versions of previously published material as well as new unpublished essays. *Process* The call is an open one, but TNI has designed a process to feature what we consider the top eight best essays in the main report. The decision on which papers are featured will be decided by an Editorial Panel made up of the current TNI Fellows, the Director and the Communications Manager. The selection process will follow three stages: 1. In the first stage, researchers will be asked to provide abstracts and a short bio. These can be abstracts based on existing papers. 2. Those whose abstracts are chosen will be asked to submit an essay. The top eight essays will be selected for the book by the Editorial Panel 3. The top eight essays will go through a final round of revisions based on feedback by the Editorial Panel, and subject to final copyedit. We hope to feature one essay as an infographic. Essays that do not make the top eight – and are considered good essays by the Editorial Panel - will be available as downloadable PDFs linked from the main report. *Instructions for submission* Abstracts must be emailed to stateofpower(a)tni.org by *31 October 2014*. Final essays will be due on *1 December 2014.* - Abstracts/essays must address the issue of power from a critical perspective, seeking to provide useful knowledge and analysis for movements engaged in the struggle for - Abstracts/essays can be based on reworked versions of existing or previously published essays/papers - TNI particularly welcomes submissions by young scholars and people based in the Global South. Due to resource constraints though, at this point, we can only accept essays in English and can not pay for submissions. - Abstracts must be a maximum of 1000 words. They do not need to be of continuous prose but must capture the main arguments of the essay and can be expanded outlines. Bios should be 200 words. - Essay length: 5000 words. Shorter essays are acceptable, but not longer than 5000 words. - Style: TNI has five basic criteria for its research and publications that will also be used to assess the abstracts and essays: - Credible: Well researched and evidence-based - Accessible: Readable by a broad non-specialist audience (in other words please avoid too much academic jargon) - Additional: Adds depth, new insights or detail to existing knowledge/research - Radical: Tackles the structural roots of critical issues - Propositional: Does not just critique, but also where relevant puts forward just alternatives - Please include an abstract at the top of the paper (maximum 500 words) and add a short bio (150 words) - Provide bibliography at end of essay and/or provide endnotes for references, preferably in APA style. Please do not overdo it on the endnotes – use it mainly for referring to facts/evidence that may be surprising, questioned or challenged. - Please send as .doc file (not .docx) - The decision of the Editorial Panel is final.

Syriza and the commons
by P2P Foundation mailing list 24 Jan '15

24 Jan '15

via Vasilis Kostakis of the P2P Lab in Greece: "In a previous article we attempted to provide a bird’s-eye view of the political agendas of four Greek parties in relation to the digital/knowledge Commons. We saw that Syriza —the left-wing party which, according to the gallops, will win the elections— has one of the most thorough and well-documented set of policies towards a Commons-oriented society. Andreas Karitzis, member of Syriza’s think tank on digital policies and a candidate MP in the ongoing elections, recently wrote an article in the Greek version of the Huffington Post highlighting the commitment of his party to free/open source technologies, transparency and participatory democracy. Mr. Karitzis claims that Syriza will support the adoption of free/open source software in the public sector and the distribution of public data under Commons-based licenses. Moreover, it seems they recognize not only the value of the free/open source technologies per se, but also the collaborative productive processes that create such technologies. Andreas Karitzis, member of Syriza's think tank on digital policies & a candidate MP Andreas Karitzis, member of Syriza’s think tank on digital policies & a candidate MP This becomes evident if one reads Mr. Karitzis’ answers to the questions posed by EEL/LAK, an Athens-based NGO focused on the promotion of openness, concerning Syriza’s agenda in relation to Open Governance and the Commons. As mentioned in our recent article, he explicitly states the intention to further develop copyfair licenses for open hardware, in the vein of the P2P Foundation’s proposals. Moreover, the creation of networks of distributed micro-factories (fablabs/makerspaces) is considered as another key point of a Commons-oriented political agenda. In addition, it is argued that Syriza has clearly defined policies for reforming certain laws and adopting , we would say, Partner State Approach practices with regard to education, governance and R&D. To mention a few: i) opening the public data; ii) opening every realm of knowledge produced with tax-payers’ money; iii) creating a collaborative environment for small-scale entrepreneurs and co-operatives while favoring initiatives based on open source technologies and practices; iv) developing certain participatory processes (and strengthening the existing ones) for citizen-engagement in policy-making; v) adopting open standards and patterns for public administration and education. It is true that from program to implementation, several steps are required, however the first step seems to have been made: Syriza seems to not only be aware of the advantages of free/open source technologies but also to realize the potential and the new political economy of this emerging proto-mode of production. Will Syriza create the conditions for a transition towards a full-mode of Commons-based peer production?" http://blog.p2pfoundation.net/will-syriza-pave-the-way-for-a-commons-orient… -- Check out the Commons Transition Plan here at: http://en.wiki.floksociety.org/w/Research_Plan P2P Foundation: http://p2pfoundation.net - http://blog.p2pfoundation.net <http://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/p2p-foundation>Updates: http://twitter.com/mbauwens; http://www.facebook.com/mbauwens #82 on the (En)Rich list: http://enrichlist.org/the-complete-list/

Syriza has integrated some p2p-f proposals in its electoral program

23 Jan '15

Syriza has integrated some p2p-f proposals in its electoral program, see http://blog.p2pfoundation.net/greek-political-parties-for-a-commons-oriente… "According to the report <https://ellak.gr/2015/01/giati-anichti-diakivernisi-ke-ta-kina-agatha-ine-i…>, Syriza and the Greek Pirate Party have developed a thorough political agenda with Commons-oriented policies for supporting the direct social value creation. It might be of interest that Syriza, the left-wing party that is likely to win the elections, explicitly states its intention to further develop Commons-based reciprocal licenses for open hardware, in the vein of the P2P Foundation’s proposals. Moreover, the creation of networks of distributed micro-factories (fablabs/makerspaces) is considered as another key point of a Commons-oriented political agenda. In addition, both Syriza and the Pirates have clearly defined policies for reforming certain laws and adopting Partner State Approach <http://p2pfoundation.net/PART_THREE:_THE_HYPOTHETICAL_MODEL_OF_MATURE_PEER_…> practices concerning education, governance and R&D." -- Check out the Commons Transition Plan here at: http://en.wiki.floksociety.org/w/Research_Plan P2P Foundation: http://p2pfoundation.net - http://blog.p2pfoundation.net <http://lists.ourproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/p2p-foundation>Updates: http://twitter.com/mbauwens; http://www.facebook.com/mbauwens #82 on the (En)Rich list: http://enrichlist.org/the-complete-list/

Global Civil Society launches the Internet Social Forum - A Call To Occupy The Internet
by P2P Foundation mailing list 22 Jan '15

22 Jan '15

Global Civil Society launches the Internet Social Forum - A Call To Occupy The Internet PRESS RELEASE. Geneva, Switzerland, 22st January, 2015. A group of civil society organisations from around the world has announced the Internet Social Forum, to bring together and articulate bottom-up perspectives on the ‘Internet we want’ and the ‘Web we want’. Taking inspiration from the World Social Forum, and its clarion call, ‘Another World is possible’, the group seeks to draw urgent attention to the increasing centralization of the Internet for extraction of monopoly rents and for socio-political control, asserting that ‘Another Internet is possible’! The Internet Social Forum will inter alia offer an alternative to the World Economic Forum’s ‘Net Mundial Initiative’. While the World Economic Forum (WEF) and the ‘Net Mundial Initiative’ convene global elites, the Internet Social Forum will be a participatory and bottom-up space for all those who believe that the global Internet must evolve in the public interest; a direct parallel to the launch of the World Social Forum in 2001 as an counter initiative to the WEF. The Internet Social Forum will reach out to grassroots groups and social movements across the world, catalysing a groundswell that challenges the entrenched elite interests currently controlling how the Internet is managed. The Internet Social Forum’s preparatory process will kick off during the World Social Forum to take place in Tunis, March 24th to 28th, 2015. The Internet Social Forum itself is planned to be held either late 2015 or early 2016. “While the world’s biggest companies have every right to debate the future of the Internet, we are concerned that their perspectives should not drown out those of ordinary Internet users who have no access to the privileged terrain WEF occupies – in the end it is this wider public interest that must be paramount in governing the Internet. We are organising the Internet Social Forum to make sure their voices can’t be ignored in the corridors of power,” said Norbert Bollow, Co-Coordinator of the Just Net Coalition, which is one of the groups involved in the initiative. The Internet Social Forum, and its preparatory process, is intended as a space to build the ‘Internet we want’ and the ‘Web we want’. It will be underpinned by values of democracy, human rights and social justice. It will stand for participatory policy making and promote community media. It will seek an Internet that is decentralized in its architecture and based on people’s unfettered rights to data, information, knowledge and other ‘commons’ that the Internet has enabled the world community to generate and share. Consistent with Web inventor Tim Berners-Lee’s call for a ‘Magna Carta for the Internet’, the Internet Social Forum proposes to develop a People’s Internet Manifesto, through a bottom-up process involving all concerned social groups and movements, in different areas, from techies and ICT-for-development actors to media reform groups, democracy movements and social justice activists. This year will also see the 10 year high-level review of the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS), to be held in New York in December. As a full-scale review of a major UN summit, this will be a critical global political event. Since the WSIS, in the early part of the millennium, the Internet, and what it means socially, has undergone a paradigm shift. The WSIS witnessed active engagement of civil society and technical groups as well as of business. However, currently, there is a risk that this UN-led initiative on governance issues of the information society and Internet will be sidelined in favour of private, big-business-dominated initiatives like the WEF’s Net Mundial Initiative. The Internet Social Forum, while remaining primarily a people’s forum, will also seek to channel global civil society’s engagement towards the WSIS +10 review. The following organisations form the initial group that is proposing the Internet Social Forum, and many more are expected to join in the immediate future. This is an open call to progressive groups from all over the world to join this initiative, and participate in developing a People’s Internet Manifesto. Just Net Coalition, Global P2P Foundation, Global Transnational Institute, Global Forum on Communication for Integration of our America, Regional (Latin America) Arab NGO Network for Development, Regional Agencia Latinoamericana de Información, Regional Alternative Informatics Association, Turkey Knowledge Commons, India Open-Root/EUROLINC, France SLFC.in, India CODE-IP Trust, Kenya GodlyGlobal.org, Switzerland Centre for Community Informatics Research, Development and Training, Canada IT for Change, India Association for Proper Internet Governance, Switzerland Computer Professionals Union, Philippines Free Press, USA Advocates of Science and Technology for the People, Philippines Other News, Italy Free Software Movement of India Global_Geneva, Switzerland Solidarius (Solidarity Economy Network), Italy All India Peoples Science Network, India Institute for Local Self-Reliance – Community Broadband Networks, USA Please contact us at secretariat(a)InternetSocialForum.net for further information or clarification.
