The Travelling Assembly
Towards a permanent Peoples' Assembly for Europe
2. “Our Money, our Choice!” - TENSIONS?
[Please note this latest version was made public on 25 May 2025, after the final meeting (External link) of the 2024/25 pilot Assembly]
Tensions? (Florence spirit)
Some dissenting voices fear this will create social conflict. Budgets give rise to conflict, as people perceive that if one group is powerful, it can take away resources from other groups. But others feel that budgets are not necessarily zero-sum.There are ways to generate more ressources. Many say that it is their own money and they should decide on how to allocate spending as long as they consider tradeoffs. Should consultations take the form of ad-hoc assemblies or rather of more permanent ones? How can the information about budgets be put online and updated?
