These notes are an attempt to summarise way some of the common points between what are known as emerging movements, that is, the various social movements that have appeared in different parts of the world since 2011.
They have been compiled with the input from members of these movements. (15M, OWS, Occupy, Indignés, YoSoy 132, Occupy Russia)
It is presented in the form of theses collecting ideas and common values observed in these processes, beyond the different social and political contexts in which they occur.
It is therefore somewhat incomplete, partial, non-representative. It will be of interest if it is useful and enhances the whole for discussion, sharing and collective thinking.

Greetings from Quebec City,
Suggestion for this page : the link «in other languages» is too subtle or hard to notice. I suggest it be above or in a different color.
Merci
Hi,
this is a good document put together by inspired people. Thanks!
Having said that, I’ll add that I couldn’t help noticing that a lot of the concepts, images and feelings contained in it seem to come right out of the New Humanist manifesto or from the pages of «Letters to my Friends», by Silo (www.silo.net).
This is fine.
After all awakening and total transformation doesn’t belong to anyone more than to the whole of us.
