Ainur Kurmanov,a Kazakh socialist activist and journalist, was arrested on April 27th in Almaty and sentenced to jail for fifteen days on trumped-up charges. You can read about the case and the solidarity campaign being mounted in his defense here: http://chtodelat.wordpress.com/2010/04/29/free-ainur-kurmanov/ Late last year, Ainur wrote a long report on the state of the labor movement in Kazakhstan for an international trade union organization. We translated that report and, in connection with his arrest, have decided it was a good time to publish it: http://chtodelat.wordpress.com/2010/04/29/ainur-kurmanov-the-state-of-the-unions-in-kazakhstan/ ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: [email protected] Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
