Does anyone have any comments or suggestions on how the announcement might be improved. Bill Bartlett list administrator LISTSERVE ANNOUNCEMENT: workfare-defeat workfare-defeat is an umoderated listserve which is a forum for anti-workfare activists and other interested people internationally to share news and discuss issues. To subscribe to workfare-defeat, send an e-mail message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with "subscribe workfare-defeat" in the text of the message. The term "workfare" refers the phenomenon of requiring people dependant on welfare to perform work, or "earn", their entitlements. But the definition is also generally understood to include associated restrictions, or "mutual obligations" imposed on welfare recipients in various jurisdictions. These include such things as compulsory education, training, attendance at meetings and also compulsory medical and psychiatric treatment or "counselling". workfare-defeat scrutinizes this issue, allowing interested people from around the globe to compare stories, analyse the causes and effects and learn from each other's experiences. Anyone who subscribes to workfare-defeat may post uncensored to the listserve. Subscription is also open, with no restrictions on who may subscribe. However the option to remove subscribers who are excessively disruptive to other subscribers is reserved. What would also be of great assistance, given that the target "market" of the workfare-defeat list is the victims of workfare, would be if it could be arranged for this notice to be inserted into local newsletters and pamphlets whose readership is likely to include people on welfare, especially those subject to workfare. Please post this notice on relevant lists, and accept our apologies for cross-posting. -------------------------------------------------------------------- Workfare-defeat: a list for discussion about the international resistance to workfare To subscribe, post to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with "subscribe workfare-defeat" in the BODY of the message ** This material may be freely distributed, provided this ** ** footer is included in full. ** <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
