| After
last year's polycentric experience on three continents --
in Caracas, Bamako, Karachi --, the World Social Forum returns
to a single venue: Nairobi, capital of Kenya, Jan. 20-25.
The big question, as in previous Forums, is: Should the WSF
remain a space for civil society to reflect, or transform
into an instrument for action? Once again, thousands of activists,
academics, labour leaders and experts will tackle the issues
surrounding the path of the globalisation process and the
predominant forms of citizen participation and social organisation.
