A proposal to all of comrade
Worldwide
workers' Conference, International Labor Media which
firstly initiated in 1997, now facing 3rd anniversary.
This unique conference has drawn great attention
and spotlight in the sphere of international labor
circle.
As
the myth of dot-com industry reveals itself as another
impetus of economic crisis, and as the activities
using media technologies for the labor movement
in different countries becomes more vibrant and
diverse than ever, the working class viewpoint on
challenges and potentials provided by new media
technologies become critical for the progress of
democratic labor movement as a whole.
Based
on this basic concern, the Korean progressive communication
activists will hold the third international Labor
Media conference with the fifth Seoul International
Labor Film and Video Festival during the coming
November.
With
the initiative of "JinboNet"(Korean progressive
network, http://www.jinbo.net)
and "NodongNet"(LaborNet in South Korea,
http://www.nodong.net)
and the sponsorship of KCTU (Korean Confederation
of Trade Unions', http://www.nodong.org),
this conference will be one of the most important
events for labor communication activists world wide
to discuss the broad issues related to the challenge
and the potential of new communication technologies
following the acclaimed LaborMedia '97 and '99.
This
year, we are also going to hold this labor media
congress, transferring 5 year-old history within
comprehensive participation of labor circle from
all over the world.
This
year, faced with whole drastic attack of neo-liberalism,
we propose to hold a 3rd Seoul International labor
media jointly with other groups for progressing
in worker's international solidarity much closer
than any other round with exchanging accomplishments
among activists by each country.
Wish
you enjoy yourself at the fullest extent.
