(en) France, Alternative Libertaire , The second fair in > self-management held in Montreuil (fr)

With an increase in attendance, the second fair in self management held in Montreuil (93) 
> on 8 and 9 June 2013, was again a success, taking the two goals it set itself: the form - 
> to be a "fair", that is to say a mixture of friendly elements (music, canteen open space 
> children, informal discussions), political or trade union structures self-management, 
> empowerment workshops, self-managed cooperatives producing ..., and the background: 
> assemble the actors and actresses of the self-management in their diversity: research 
> associations on self-run collective, demanding theorists seeking to renew a global vision 
> of society to those who practice self-management in everyday life.

> Frequently allowed different families self-management exchange and compare their 
> approaches, practices and daily necessities in the struggles and the social project. 
> program attests.
> 
> Note that among the 80 structures (unions, cooperatives, associations, community and 
> political organizations) organizing the event, instead of growing is given to radical 
> ecology (thus confirming the trend of the first show). Thus, in particular, the ZAD of 
> Notre-Dame-des-Landes has been the subject of much debate.
> 
> New in this second edition: the coming to power of empowerment workshops (recovery or "do 
> it yourself"), manufacture of household and cosmetic products to achieve more Jerrys 
> (computers made based recovery) of ownership of digital (with Village of free software), 
> video self-repairing bike workshops, through an introduction to feminist self-defense.
> 
> Frequently also, like last year, led moments of collective achievement, as the horizontal 
> management of the kitchen which has provided food for two days.
> 
> Lively and cheerful fair, but that has leveled the shadow of young Clement Meric, 
> assassinated a few hours before the start of the Fair. After a public tribute, many and 
> many participants came to the event in Paris, then in concert to support the anti-fascist 
> Action-Paris suburbs.
> 
> Workshops and forums have fair exchange around a dense program. In addition to workshops, 
> debates and forums, theater, with room in Side / Side out, music, an exhibition of posters 
> ... Not to mention the excellent beer from the microbrewery Zymotic.
> 
> We leave it to the care of participating organizations report and comment on the content 
> of the debates and forums which they attended.

> As for the general atmosphere, see the slide show .

> Thank you all and all the participants without whom this FAQ would not have been fully
