WSF: Another Lie is Possible
"We can start to make out a colonization pattern based on a certain Western ‘civil society’ model which institutionalizes the fights, pretends to ‘represent’ the outcasts, monopolizes time of speech and presence in the media, and more especially follows an agenda according to the needs of the international fund donors, removing the local ‘civil society’s’ sense of responsibility towards its own priorities and choices in order to pursue imposed policies. It is a political economy for the social struggles that must absolutely be undone, because this ‘NGOization’ will grow stronger in the future and most importantly be a great hold-up towards the self-determination of people."
