WORLD WORLDWIDE EUROPE FRANCE - news journal UPDATE - (en) France, UCL - MANIFESTO: A self-managed activist organization (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

 LUCL est une federation autogeree, placee sous lacee responsabilite

collective de lensemble de sesembl ... militants. Sans nier land
activites activites coordination et animation danimation, nous cherchons
and animationg and ... Indeade ... decentralise. ---- The Libertarian
Communist Union is not a party: it does not seek the votes of voters.
The essential activity of the organization is the development and
self-organization of struggles against all systems of domination:
through its policy and propaganda, through its collective reflection,
through training, through the help it provides, through the action of
its members.

It works towards the emergence of a counter-power from the base of
society and a break with the capitalist, patriarchal and racist order.
Solidarity, struggles, self-management

We also want to make the UCL a privileged space for solidarity and
mutual aid, particularly in the face of repression.

The organization is based, and this until the members decide otherwise,
on this Manifesto. Neither a historical program nor an immutable
declaration of principle, this manifesto is in fact only a moment in a
theoretical, practical and organizational process, which itself contains
a potential dynamic of surpassing.

A statutory contract sets the rules for the organization's operation and
binds all freely associated members. The strategic orientations of the
organization, its positions, its decisions are subject to debates,
collective decision, and votes by the entire organization. It thus
constitutes a testing ground for self-managed and federalist democracy,
in line with the libertarian communist project: we want an egalitarian
society, without a leader, and we strive to bring it to life within the UCL.

This alternative in action allows activists to have a real experience
and a self-managed practice. This gives them the opportunity to instill
these practices with greater ease and confidence within the struggles
and social movements, in the collectives, unions and associations in
which they are active.
An operation consistent with our aims

The organization is therefore a self-managed federation, placed under
the collective responsibility of all its activists. By reversing the
traditional image of the hierarchical party, but without denying the
necessity and importance of the organization's coordination and
animation activities, we seek to establish a horizontal and
decentralized framework for debate and intervention.

The practice of mandates makes it possible to reconcile collective
development and efficiency; mandates are defined and controlled by the
members of the organization who can, if necessary, revoke the people
mandated.

The organization is a plural place where, against a common political
backdrop, a great diversity of opinions can be freely expressed. While
it is natural that it democratically gives itself a majority
orientation, it nonetheless scrupulously guarantees the rights of
minorities and local groups to express themselves. This is in the
internal debate of course, but also in the organization's press,
according to the terms established by the statutory contract.

The organization seeks the convergence of its members' actions in an
obvious concern for efficiency. Activists are bound by their mandate
when it comes to speaking or acting on behalf of the organization, but
apart from that, each and every one can act according to their personal
choices.

The organization refuses any relationship of direction or substitution
in the direction of the struggles of workers and the population. It can
participate in the organization of initiatives and mobilizations. The
activists of our movement can take their full place in these struggles.
But the direction of social struggles must remain under the collective
control of those who bring them to life. Our fight is international, as
is the structuring of the movement that we will build.
