| | ATTAC - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Though ATTAC criticises the neoliberal ideology dominating economic globalisation, it is not "anti-globalisation". | | | ATTAC aims to formalise the possibility of an alternative to the neoliberal society that is currently required of globalisation. | | | Association for the Taxation of Financial Transactions for the Aid of Citizens (ATTAC - Association pour la Taxation des Transactions pour l'Aide aux Citoyens) is an activist organization for the establishment of a tax on foreign exchange transactions. |

| | Attac - Attac |
| | ATTAC disapproves the existing form of globalisation, a globalisation dominated by neo-liberal motives and oriented to serve the interests of the rich and of large enterprises: The world is not a merchandise. | | | ATTAC has to focus on a certain set of issues even within the area of economic globalisation, for political effectiveness also depends on the ability to formulate positions in a simple and convincing message, as it has successfully been done with the Tobin tax issue. | | | ATTAC is always open for tackling new issues, either if organisations or networks that have already existed before become members and bring new potential to ATTAC, or if members tackle new issues. |

| | Attac stands for "Association for the Taxation of Financial Transactions for the Aid of Citizens". | | | As Attac's constituent platform makes quite clear, taxing financial transactions is only one way of fighting neo-liberal globalisation. | | | Through disinformation, they are seeking to undermine the position of Tobin-tax supporters on the very eve of the meeting between Attac and Laurent Fabius and above all of the 22nd-23rd September meeting in Liège of the EU finance ministers (Ecofin) that has the proposal on its agenda. |

| | In These Times 25/12 -- On The ATTAC |
| | ATTAC was formed primarily in reaction to what it calls the "dictatorship of the market" imposed by "financial globalization." The group argues not only for more regulation of the market, but preservation of a realm free from market values. | | | Although it continues to push for the Tobin tax, which is gaining substantial support even among moderate politicians in much of Europe and Canada, ATTAC also campaigns against the World Trade Organization (especially new rules on trade in services that could threaten the public sector), tax havens, privatized pensions and genetically modified food. | | | Resisting the easy label of being "anti-globalization," ATTAC leaders insist they favor greater global integration, but in a quite different way from that promoted by the International Monetary Fund, WTO and most European governments. |
