(en) France, Alternative Libertaire AL - Frequently self-management in 2014: a mixed picture (fr, pt)

Pending the report by militant.es AL, read in Alternative libertarian September, a first 
encrypted and factual by the general meeting of the organizers of the 3rd Fair in self 
assessment. And the photo report! ---- 3rd Fair in self held in Montreuil from 28 to 29 
June 2014. Event, supported by 81 structures (unions, cooperatives, associations and 
political organizations), 1,280 people attended in total, despite weather miserable all 
weekend. ---- The results of the Fair in 2014 contrasted self. ---- On the positive side, 
there was held an important event for the third consecutive time, fully funded, without 
big budget, with greater involvement of activist all volunteers. ---- The political 
content of the Fair also seems up with a good standard and well attended forums (the 
program is still available online). And cultural programming was up to, thanks to concert 
Mossy T e lei Jovents, the choir chants rebels, and a way, moving piece of theater written 
and performed by undocumented workers Montreuil.

This year, in addition to the village of free software, the self-repairing bicycle 
workshop, the cinema space, refreshments and self-managed canteen Fair to self hosted for 
the first time, a professional meeting: the the alternative bakery, with ten participating 
organizations. In the same spirit, the debate "Self-management and Cinema" has brought 
together several alternative groupings of production and distribution in a logical support.

These last two initiatives were particularly important for the Fair, who aspires to be 
both a catalyst for alternative experiences, a militant hub and a place of discovery wide 
open.

It is probably on this last point that we need to move forward. Attendance has not 
increased this year, despite the installation of the Fair in the landscape. We will, for 
the edition 2015 continue to innovate to avoid routine.

In conclusion, we can only rejoice to see the concept spread. After Montreuil and 
Toulouse, Finist?re Gard and organized their own fair self-management. Other departments 
will follow. In short, the aim of reaffirming the existence - multiforme - a 
self-management seems aware achieved. Remains to give more strength to the self-management 
as a tool of resistance and rupture with the capitalist system.
