Preface
"No, no, no, they dont represent us," is a popular Spanishchant at demonstrations. People have realized that their
elected politicians do not represent ordinary citizens, but
someone else. At the time of writing, enormous unregulated
power lies in the hands of global investment and central
banks, large corporations, international organizations
founded by policy and autocratic military regimes. This
year was marked by global youth uprisings. Early in the
year, Arabic-speaking nations were shaken by revolutions.Later on, the protests spread especially to the financially
indebted countries of the European Mediterranean. Protests
have become global when the dissatisfaction moved to
North America with the Occupy movement. On 15th
October, in organized protests, people took to the streets in
over 82 countries in over 950 cities.
Reasons for discontent among people and reasons for theemerging protests were quite similar. The main exposed
topics were: the power of banks, criticism of the capitalist
system, stock speculations, lack of democracy, poor
regulations, austerity cuts, corruption of elites, inaccessible
education, high unemployment, high personal debts,
environmental problems, an increasing gap between the
rich and poor, and many others. In military dictatorships,
people were upset by high prices of basic foodstuffs, lackof public services, self-ignition protests, armed repressions,
exclusion from decision-making, violating of basic human
rights and torturing as well as killing of civilians.

It seems that governments are incapable of solving these
problems on their own. Therefore, people must take matters
into their own hands. It is urgent that every citizen becomesan active member of society and gets involved in the
decision-making process. The world needs new ideas for
resolving class tensions, modern forms of political
participation and a new economy that does not exploit
people. I invite you to listen to the protesters. Suggest a
change, become a change-maker.
