People’s Conference Against Globalisation
March 21-23, 2001
Constitution Club, V.P. House, Rafi Marg, N. Delhi
Subject: Confirmation of acceptance of invitation for participation
Dear Friend,
As you are already aware that an effort is underway to launch a National Campaign against Globalization. In this regard an Appeal was issued signed by many distiguished personalities, leadres, activists from various fields. As the Appeal says: "The globalization offensive is all-pervasive and well orchestrated. To meet it effectively and defeat it decisively, the vigorous but scattered struggles, intensive but sporadic protests need to acquire a more unified expression. We need to move forward from mere criticism of this or that aspect of globalization to determined opposition and resistance to the forces propelling globalization. Struggles against particular impacts of globalization need to coalesce into a broader and coordinated confrontation with the process of globalization itself, its dynamics and its manifestation in various forms."
