Project page, click below THERE ARE ALTERNATIVES PROJECT MARGRIT KENNEDY INSPIRES NEW ZEALAND GROUPS TO ESTABLISH REGIONAL MONEY SYSTEMS; by Deidre Kent During their three month summer tour of New Zealand, Professor Dr Margrit Kennedy, German ecovillage member and permaculturalist, spoke to around 30 groups on the topic of "Just Money Just World". She was accompanied by her husband Declan who spoke on ecovillages. The couple, recognising the link between ecology and the economy, believe that is essential that new money systems are created to enable an adequate response to the ecological and social challenges facing the planet and human society. As I had just completed two years of research for my book on money, I attended several of her presentations, and together we have co-written a manual for those who will implement or support proposed new regional currencies. Author of Interest and Inflation Free Money, a book translated into 18 languages, Margit Kennedy is soon to take early retirement as a professor of architecture. She will continue her travels, inspiring people all round New Zealand as well as in Cali, Colombia and Auroville, India, to set up currencies based on the one introduced in Wörgl, Austria, during the Great Depression.

Mass applications of alternative energy offer ethical least-cost solutions to some of the most widespread problems facing mankind. This article describes how the poor can design, execute, run, maintain, pay for and own their development structures without need for subsidy or paternalism. Yet carefully conceived development projects offer a unique opportunity to build alternative energy applications on a massive scale into balanced integrated development structures. The potential for viable, ethical unsubsidised least cost alternative energy solutions for development dwarfs the current world-wide production of alternative energy. Integrated self-financing development projects have been designed to cover a complete package of basic services for sustainable development in poor rural and urban areas. They will usually include, but not be limited to, hygiene education, the provision of drinking water and sanitation services, PV lighting for study, PV lighting and refrigeration in clinics, waste removal, high-efficiency stoves and bio-mass to fuel them. They will provide a strong thrust for on-going local development, productivity, and employment and contain many decentralised alternative energy applications.

Alternatives World Bank / IMF WTO FTAA Sweatshops ... alternatives A New Approach to the Third World Debt Crisis by Kevin Danaher Dozens of countries, large and small, have foreign debts so large that their interest payments on the debt are a crushing burden. The Republic of the Congo, for example, has annual debt service payments equal to 50 percent of its export earnings; Uganda's debt service equals 44 percent of its exports. Not surprisingly many countries cannot keep up with their interest payments, let alone ever hope of paying off the principal. The situation has gotten so hopeless that even the the World Bank and IMF have been forced to admit that debt relief is necessary. With the approval of G-7 leaders, the Bank and IMG approved a plan at their 1996 annual meeting to address the debt dilemma of the heavily indebted poor countries (HIPC). The ostensible goal of this multilateral debt facility is to ease the worst cases while maintaining strict criteria that will reassure the bankers. The requirements a country would need to meet include: having already agreed to a debt reduction plan on their commercial and bilateral debt, and possessing a good record on "economic reform" (i.e., past compliance with structural adjustment). The World Bank assumes that only about two dozen countries could possibly qualify. Critics such as Christian Aid in England have pointed out that the plan fails to provide enough relief: only about 3 percent of total HIPC debt could be written off if all the strict conditions were met.

Alternatives World Bank / IMF WTO FTAA Sweatshops ... Americas Alternatives for the Americas 4. Labour Contents 6. Role of the State 5. Immigration Background International migration has increased over the last number of decades, accelerated by the process of globalization. There are currently about 125 million immigrants (people who have moved from one country to another) in the world, 80 million of whom are considered "recent" immigrants. The growing population of immigrant men, women and children has serious impacts for the countries they leave, as well as for the countries which receive them. However, despite the demands of numerous nongovernmental organizations, officials have refused to address this issue in the negotiation of trade and investment liberalization agreements. Such agreements deal only with the free movement of capital, goods, and their agents, but exclude the mobility of workers. The forces driving people to migrate are many. After political violence, the leading reason is the problem of unemployment. Immigration affects not only those who migrate. It has major consequences for the economic and social relationships between countries involved. It is therefore necessary to agree on international rules to address not only the human and labour rights of migrants, but also to regulate the flow of labour. The impacts of immigration are complex. Developing nations have become exporters of workers who are often vulnerable to exploitation. Corporations have taken full advantage of this situation, contributing to the lowering of wages for some workers in host countries. At the same time, the money remitted by the immigrant workers to family members in their homeland plays a major role in reducing problems in the current account balance in developing economies and cushioning social problems and extreme poverty.

34. The Case For The Amero: Alternatives To The Amero Three alternatives have been proposed fixed exchange rates;; the establishment of a currency board;; the use American dollar notes and coins, also known as http://oldfraser.lexi.net/publications/critical_issues/1999/amero/section_08.htm

The Economic Freedom Network The Case for the Amero: Alternatives to the Amero Previous Contents Next It has been argued that most of the benefits of a North American Monetary Union just discussed can be achieved by other institutional arrangements at lower costs to national economic sovereignty. Three alternatives have been proposed: fixed exchange rates; the establishment of a currency board; the use American dollar notes and coins, also known as "dollarization." These financial arrangements have been analyzed intensively by economists and there is an historic record in the use of all three. (The institutional characteristics and the financial and economic costs and benefits of different currency arrangements are presented conveniently in the Appendix Fixed exchange rates First, the government's commitment to fixed rates is too easily reversed as different parties form government or a new economic ideology takes hold. Only a binding international treaty will avoid this problem, bring lower interest rates, greater labour-market efficiency, better rates of adjustment to changing world prices, and the other benefits noted above. Second, even if there were to be no political or ideological developments that result in exchange-rate changes, other developments are likely to force them. Thus, external shocks can cause the domestic economy to overheat or enter a recession. Exchange-rate changes are often the easiest way to deal with these problems. For example, Canada's fixed rate was abandoned during the early 1970s because international inflation and rapid increases in world commodity prices caused a disequilibrium in the balance of payments. To maintain the fixed rate would have required changes in domestic policies, changes that were considered unacceptable.

37. MONEY - ALTERNATIVES Compelling everyone to use the same currency reflects the impulse to centralize power, and there are strong economic and political arguments against it. http://www.newint.org/issue306/alternatives.html

Can money ever serve the needs of people and the environment - instead of the other way round? James Robertson suggests ways in which it could. BRILL-UNEP / STILL PICTURES I HAVE a dream. The money system is ours, the people's. It is competently designed to enable us to exchange things which we need but cannot each provide for ourselves. It is efficiently and fairly managed for us by responsible professionals who respect people and the environment. The reality is very different. People all over the world today experience the money system as a nightmare - an institution as incomprehensible, exploitative and corrupt as the pre-Reformation Catholic Church at the end of the Middle Ages. Financial events on the far side of the world deprive people of their houses, jobs and livelihoods while traders in funny money called 'derivatives' get bonuses larger than the annual budgets of schools. Today's money system compels us to dance to the tune of 'money-must-grow'. How much longer can we take the consequences? These include: The tendency of savings automatically to flow out of poor areas, where investment is badly needed, to places where development is already booming and economic activity high. This gives savers, bankers and financiers a higher return than investing locally. Local financial institutions supporting local development have virtually died out. Grassroots savings banks like the Grameen Bank in Bangladesh and local development banks like the Aston Reinvestment Trust in Birmingham, England, are exceptions that prove the rule.

Complete List of Institute Reports Release Date: June 1998 CONTENTS Key Points Introduction Political and Economic Catastrophe Is Milosevic Indispensable? ... About This Report SPECIAL REPORT 31 Serbia: Democratic Alternatives Key Points The Current Situation in Serbia Slobodan Milosevic remains in control of the essential levers of power, yet he is vulnerable. His continued leadership depends on his ability to fund a substantial political patronage system with hard currency primarily from the sale of state assets. As he did in the late 1980s, Milosevic is manipulating Serb nationalist concerns about Kosovo to bolster his uncertain political position at home. Public apathy because of economic hardship and the recent war in Bosnia indicates that Milosevic may not be able to use nationalism to rally the Serb public. There is a sense among the people that the current Kosovo crisis may strengthen the Milosevic regime but do little for Serbia. The rise of the ultranationalist Vojislav Seselj suggests a future successora possibility that Milosevic manipulates so as to appear more palatable to the international community.

Press Release Professor Andrew Hughes-Hallett (University of Strathclyde) "EMU, the alternatives and how they all work" 6.00pm Wednesday 1 November 2000 Professor Hughes-Hallett said, "In this talk I shall review the conditions under which it would be both advantageous and appropriate to adopt a single currency in several different economies. This framework will show why it is quite logical that some countries would adopt a very different approach and attitude to the Euro while continuing to trade in the same markets. Then we can look at Britain's particular case with respect to flexible exchange rates and inflation targeting, or exchange rate targets themselves, or fixing via a currency board, or monetary union via the Euro. Here the issues are, how important are the gains from having a common currency; how are individual economies supposed to adjust under that regime; why market flexibility is a crucial issue; the importance of the distinction between a single market and a single currency; and what happens if your trading partners and your investment partners are different sets of people with different interests." Professor Brian Main, Director of The David Hume Institute
