Sustainability And Meta-Industrial Labour:
Building a Synergistic Politics
The sustainability question is embedded in the political economy of neo-liberal modernisation; a relentless drive for economic growth, which rolls over the borders of once sovereign states. EU enlargement is a testament to it. And this transnational corporate push, helped along by so called advanced democracies in the North and their financial institutions - IMF, World Bank, and WTO, makes us all members - de facto - of a single global society. Our lives now, from Italian housewives to Chinese factory girls, from Aboriginal Australians to New York art dealers, are increasingly interdependent, and the circle of our citizen responsibility grows.

Das weltweit tätige Netzwerk von Bauern und Bäuerinnen "Via Campesina" hat zum 17. April zum weltweiten Aktionstag für die Rechte der Bauern und Bäuerinnen aufgerufen. Im Rahmen dieses Aktionstages ruft das Netzwerk "geNOfood" bundesweit zu Aktionen vor und in Supermärkten auf. Ziel ist es, den Druck auf Lebensmittelhandel und Lebensmittelindustrie zu verstärken, um zu erreichen, dass die Supermarktregale und damit die Felder gentechnikfrei bleiben bzw. werden.
Außerdem sollen die Zusammenhänge zwischen Gentechnik und Umweltzerstörung, Globalisierung und Welthandel, Profitinteressen und Ausbeutung deutlich gemacht werden.

In the night of August 30-31, radical environmentalists of GroenFront! have, as a courtesy service, used paintbombs to ‘greenwash’ outlets of a dozen corporations in Amsterdam. GroenFront! is certain these transnational corporations will appreciate the gesture; they surely need some help, as their own ‘voluntary action’ on behalf of sustainable development hasn't done the job very well.

Bangladesh, one of the poorest and most densely populated countries in the world, is beset by floods, tidal storms, famine and disease.
Now it is confronting the accidental poisoning of as many as 85 million of its 125 million people with arsenic-contaminated drinking water (The Independent, U.K., October 11, 2000). The scale of disaster in Bangladesh is beyond that of the accidents in Bhopal and Chernobyl (WHO, 2000). The epidemic of arsenic related cancer has just begun. The arsenic mitigation programme financed by the World Bank/donors is hopelessly subject to inefficiency, bureaucracy, corruption, lack of capacity, lack of capabilities, lack of professionalism, etc (Hoorens and Koender, Deltf University, Netherlands, 1999) So far, no programme aid has reached the people.
