With the Pandemic, the Time Has Come to Put Limits on Private Property

After the pandemic: the “what”, the “how” and the “who”
There is much debate about what the world will be like after the pandemic, and we really don’t even know when that will be. It may be that in some countries contagion will peak in a few weeks and then decline, but simultaneously contagion may advance in other nations. We… »
Neoliberal Meritocracy, True Lies
In the previous article, “The vicious circle of wealth concentration“, we described the mechanisms of accumulation through which economic power not only accelerates its appropriation of income, but also, because of its dominant position, remains unscathed from traditional methods of wealth redistribution (businessmen vs. wage-earners; tax collection vs. private… »
The vicious circle of wealth concentration
We often read statistics illustrating the accelerated concentration of wealth in the world; a few billionaires accumulate more wealth than the poorest half of the planet, and the richest 1% of the population owns more than half of the world’s wealth.

Tsipras’s promise to put an end to the extreme measures generated favourable expectations, but the question that arises is… »

Egypt: A non-violent revolution and a future to be built
We humanists feel very joyful at the outcome of the Non-Violent Revolution in Egypt, which has culminated in Mubarak's resignation. Towards the end of January the International Humanist Party showed its support for the “peoples’ protest” in the Arab world; and we demonstrated outside Egyptian embassies in several countries supporting the non-violent struggle of its people. »
