(en) France, UCL AL #349 - Editorial: Who is afraid of their youth? (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Sun, 2 Jun 2024 08:42:36 +0300


To "celebrate" his hundred days in government, Gabriel Attal went to Essonne, to Viry-Châtillon, to deliver "a speech on authority at the heart of the Republic", where, two weeks earlier, a teenager from 15-year-old Shemseddine had been beaten to death. ---- It did not smell like the announcement of a massive investment plan for public schools (what the teachers on strike in 93 have been demanding for several weeks), nor of a desire to invest massively for reduce social inequalities. To tell the truth, we expected nothing... and it was even worse.

Once again Attal sought inspiration in the worst proposals of the reactionary right: confinement of students ten hours a day in schools, "disruptors" will be sanctioned on their exam grades - which is prohibited by the Education Code -, or to impose the standing up (at attention?) of students when an adult enters a class and he engaged the same evening in an unprecedented questioning of the principle of reduction of penalties for minors, an old reactionary refrain.

This fierce desire to bring popular youth into line: to enlist them via the SNU or to sanction the slightest misstep, is a sign of weakness, authoritarianism and no authority. A government that is so afraid of young people is a government in dire straits. The capitalists need docile workers, Attal is only implementing their economic and social program. This month of May, let's resound with another music made of rebellion, struggles and the future for our youth. Down with barrack schools! Long live socialism, long live self-management!
