Microcredit Conference in Luxembourg

Attendees at a microcredit conference in Luxembourg. Barker and Feiner say that microcredit founder Muhammad Yunus's approach to banking "reinforces the neoliberal view that individual behavior is the source of poverty and the neoliberal agenda of restricting state aid to the most vulnerable when and where the need for government assistance is most acute."

In this time of war independent media is more important than ever. While working in Afghanistan I have rarely seen any reports in the mainstream press that truly reflect the situation here. For journalists keen on spreading the truth, newspapers like the Dominion are essential. They give us hope.

--Chris Sands, freelance journalist living in Afghanistan since 2005

About the Dominion

The Dominion is a monthly paper published by an incipient network of independent journalists in Canada. It aims to provide accurate, critical coverage that is accountable to its readers and the subjects it tackles. Taking its name from Canada's official status as both a colony and a colonial force, the Dominion examines politics, culture and daily life with a view to understanding the exercise of power.
