[DEBATE] : Re: (Fwd) Ashwin's Wolpe lecture

[Peter Waterman]

Excellent, hard-hitting, piece, Arvind, and reaching, as you have suggested 
from personal level to the global one.

It requires close reading, which I cannot here give it. However, it raises 
again in my mind the necessity of two different, if related, approaches. 
These are that which looks at social movements in communicational terms and 
that which looks at them in educational/pedagogical terms.

Both of these approaches are developing within the new global social 
movement, or social movements globally, and both focus on relations along 
different axes, or at different points on such. In other words, an 
emancipatory approach to social movement communication concerns itself with 
the nature of relations 'horizontally', within and beyond a particular 
movement, between 'leaders' and 'followers', and between different kinds of 
discourse, or extents of vision.

Oh, and I have uploaded this to the new Social Forum Studies site, at 
http://www.openspaceforum.net/wsfworkshop/twiki/tiki-index.php.
