NEW YORK PEOPLE'S ASSEMBLY AGAINST IMPERIALIST GLOBALIZATION (NY-PAAIG)


We come from different political tendencies, but we unite in the New York
People’s Assembly Against Imperialist Globalization to resist:
1. Imperialism-an enemy of the world’s peoples; the system in which
governments
use economic, military, political and cultural means to defend the investments
of powerful corporations in nations which are weaker economically and
militarily. 
2. Corporate globalization-a continuation and intensification of imperialism;
the opposite of genuine people’s internationalism. 
3. The government and multinational corporations of the United States-the
dominant imperialists. 
4. Institutions dominated by U.S. imperialism-including the World Trade
Organization, International Monetary Fund, World Bank, Democratic Party,
Republican Party, United Nations, Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation, and North
Atlantic Treaty Organization. These institutions are beyond reform. 
The NY-PAAIG is not led by any one party or organization. It is a coalition
whose operation is based on the principles of solidarity and mutual aid within
the parameters of our points of unity.
