An ‘Agreement of the People’ for 2012
Waterloo Action Centre
14 Baylis Road
London SE1 7AA
In 1647, during the English Revolution, the Levellers set out an
Agreement of the People because relations between the people, parliament
and the monarchy had broken down.In 2012, the relationship between the state, corporations and the people has again broken down in an irretrievable way.
A new Agreement of the People is needed. A people’s constitution.
With this in mind, five organisations are supporting The Revolution Will Be Networked event on November 17 at Waterloo Action Centre.
On the day an assembly of working groups will collectively map out and network ideas and proposals to re-shape and improve the Agreement that is published here as a working draft.
The aim is to produce a new document that can then go out to the sponsoring groups – The People’s Republic of Southwark, National Community Activists Network, Rotherham Against The Cuts and Peoples Assemblies Network – and other organisations and individuals.
Bro.'s Grim, Adnan al-Sayegh plus poet-translator Cristina Viti will enhance our deliberations and lift the event from the prosaic to the poetic and provide an international dimension.
Supported by:
- A World to Win
- People's Republic of Southwark
- People's Assemblies Network
- National Community Activists Network
- Rotherham Against the Cuts
- Real Democracy working group, Occupy London
