Mark,
Altho it isn't, as you say, the same as C&C, the anti MAi list is
highly relevant to the interests of social justice. It was set up to
oppose the proposed Multilateral Agreement on Investment. The
negotiations were orinignally held in sectret since 1995, but were
leaked on to the internet at one point and led to wide-spread protests
by NGOs. The details are not known but the intention of the Agreement
is to make the world - and they #do# mean 'the world' safe for
investors with penalties for any governemnt that gets in the way of
profit with labour/environment protection laws. It can be found at:
