Karen Eliot's Party



My friend Doug Aubrey (Pictorial Heros) gave me your address thinking you
would like to participate in Karen Eliot's Party.

Karen Eliot is a name ANYONE can use to make a piece of art and Karen Eliot
is inviting everyone in the world calling themselves Karen Eliot to
participate in Karen Eliot's Party at art.tm on 5th September 1998 by
sending a piece of art about Karen Eliot by e-mail, fax or snail-mail.

All artworks will be xeroxed and the xeroxes used by Karen Eliot to make an
installation. The artworks will then be sent to other venues to make
different installments by different Karen Eliots.

You can participate in two ways:
1. By sending artwork as Karen Eliot.
2. By staging your own Karen Eliot installation party.

Visit Karen Eliot's web site for further info.

LEADER

Lessons of a non-war *

by Ignacio Ramonet

There are three lessons to be learned from the recent Gulf crisis.
First, the United States is now tempted to act in an authoritarian
manner, as the world's only superpower. Second, it has no overall
strategy for the Middle East and third, Europe has ceased to exist.
http://www.monde-diplomatique.fr/md/en/1998/03/01leader.html

Translated by Barbara Wilson




Issues unresolved and resolutions ignored *

With or without air strikes against Iraq, the Middle East will
continue to be a region of instability, full of unresolved
problems. Here is a concise background to each of the following
issues: the future of Iraq, the question of the Kurds, the
Palestinian problem, the occupation of the Golan Heights, the South
Lebanon "security zone" and weapons of mass destruction.
http://www.monde-diplomatique.fr/md/en/1998/03/06iraqgen.html

Translated by Ed Emery



THE DANGERS OF THE MULTILATERAL AGREEMENT ON INVESTMENT

Wielding power behind the scenes *

The cat is out of the bag and the world now knows just how
unbalanced are the proposals coming out of the current OECD
negotiations. The nature of this international organisation, which
is devoted to free market principles, explains why the MAI has been
conceived there.
http://www.monde-diplomatique.fr/md/en/1998/03/07mai1.html

Translated by Julie Stoker



Shackling the state *

by Nuri Albala

If signed, the current MAI proposals would form a benchmark for the
global investment economy, taking precedence over most existing
national obligations and agreements. The multinational corporations
would be given powerful ammunition against sovereign states and the
legal means to enforce their new "rights". It is a dynamic
agreement which would ultimately "rollback" all national laws which
did not conform.
http://www.monde-diplomatique.fr/md/en/1998/03/08maialba.html

Translated by Julie Stoker





TECHNICAL ADVANCE, IDEOLOGICAL PROJECT

Selling off a heritage *
http://www.monde-diplomatique.fr/md/en/1998/03/13telecom.html





The Turkish model *

by Emine Usakligil

Turkey has nine free zones: three in Istanbul and six in different
cities in Anatolia. Mersin was the first of these and is also the
most productive. With the volume of trade increasing by an average
of 50% a year, the free zones are an economic success story.
Workers enjoy similar social security to their counterparts outside
but, as companies pay no taxes, wage are often higher.
