The theme of the congress was" Unity and Solidarity in the 1990s".

OPENING OF CONGRESS The Congress was opened by IFJ President Mia Dornaert and Giuliana del Bufalo, President of the FNSI. Mrs. del Bufalo wished all participants a hearty welcome. She expressed briefly the urgency of intensifying trade union work on an international level when problems in the world of journalism were so crucial. Conflict of interests, linked to political, economical and social grounds, have emerged in the society and she urged that it was time for vigilance, action and co- operation. Mia Doornaert, in her opening address, noted the absence of two old IFJ friends, Jim Bradley from the NUJ, Great Britain and Ireland, who was absent for health reasons, and Charles Perlik Jr., from The Newspaper Guild, USA; Canada. She read a short message from Mr. Perlik expressing his regret to be missing for the first time an IFJ Congress, and especially one at such an eventful period in the world. She thanked them both for their continuous fidelity to the IFJ. The President recognised the world's move towards democracy, and pointed out the I dangers of employers refusing to negotiate collective bargaining with trade unions ntas( Great Britain and Israel) and the danger of concentration of ownership which I could lead to a single employer-- Hersant, Murdoch, Berlusconi etc.-- for To hundreds of journalists all over the world. orw isd bad Mario FLORIS, Deputy Regional Adviser of Sardinia, emphasised the peoples' right to be informed and to build trade unions in developing countries. He pointed out that new strategies against the phenomenon of concentrations had to be sought to secure the pluralism of information, and he recalled that trade unionism and co- operation were the key- stones to world growth. The Cagliari Mayor addressed the Congress, insisting on the educational role of journalism. 9706 The following guests and observers addressed Congress in the course of the week.

GENERAL SECRETARY'S REPORT An extensive report on IFJ activities from 1988 to 1990, which included a report by the General Secretary, a report on the IFJ Trade Union Development Programme and a report on the IFJ European Group activities, had been circulated to all IFJ unions six weeks before the start of Congress. In considering the rapid changes in the world of journalism, the social and political changes, the number of internal changes in the affairs of the IFJ, Aidan White reflected on IFJ activities over dig the past two years. First of all, he deplored the absence of Mrs. Marie- Anne Paquet, his assistant, who had to undergo a heart operation two months ago and who had not missed an IFJ Congress in 25 years. He expressed his confidence to see her back in good condition after Congress.mondo tam von dads 03 bns lai to mailsful add Aidan White explained how the IFJ had reacted to the numerous challenges that had come up since the Maastricht Congress and he set out future aims: expanding the trade union development programme, mobilising journalists against concentrations, strengthening solidarity between journalists and other media workers, so investigating the problems of freelance and female journalists, securing for IFJ unions proper recognition in Europe and other regions of the world and being more vigilant to protect press freedom and journalists' rights. 4.18181 ....... b - 3. 309 qu The General Secretary pointed out the expansion of work in Latin America and recalled the good and practical working conditions between the IFJ and the journalists' unions in Latin- America in order to create a concrete and efficient solidarity amongst them. He noted the departure at the end of June of the IFJ d Education Officer, Stein Ove GRØNSUND, who will head a new office in Caracas ( Venezuela) in his capacity of regional officer." This location in Latin America should strengthen the trade union development programme in the region". White considered this regionalisation in our Education Programme as a new approach to be b developed in future in order to delegate more work to the regions and to leave a co- ordinating role to the Brussels- based secretariat. He announced the appointment of Neal SWANCOTT, former IFJ Education Officer and member of the Australian Journalists Association, in the post of Trade Union Development Officer. 29 Regarding Africa, the General Secretary briefly reviewed the IFJ education programmes for coming months. This programme will include training projects in Eastern Africa and South Africa. In the Maghreb countries, the IFJ will continue anies its co- operation with local unions. In September 1990, a joint IFJ/ Union of African Journalists conference will be held in Lusaka and will focus on the trade union needs of journalists throughout Africa. White spoke of the IFJ's successful activities in South East Asia and in the Pacific area which led to the creation of the" Pacific Journalists' Association". The IFJ remains in contact with colleagues in Hong Kong where vigilance is required after the tragic events in China a year ago. The General Secretary noted that while some unions of journalists were struggling in Central and Eastern Europe to turn into independent unions, new dangers were emerging with the rush of interests from media transnational companies. The IFJ work in Europe had increased considerably over the past two years because of the urgent demands for action by the unions caught up in the process of political and economic changes within the European Communities. White underlined the urgent need to prevent the free market impeding workers' rights and press freedom. White also reported on the IFJ current surveys relating to freelances and women aniv journalists. Both were categories regarded often as" marginal". The follow- up of these surveys will be completed in coming weeks. ed gidas Finally, the General Secretary thanked all the unions for their co- operation and direct involvement in the Federation's activities. The report was then open for discussion. ofaas M to mo M. Walter( FSJ, Switzerland) reaffirmed his union's concern about the wave of ed opportunism which has been sweeping the Eastern and Western countries. He also deplored the fact that China had become of interest only after the bloody events of last year. 19 bad W. Klinkenberg( Netherlands) congratulated the General Secretary for all of his work at a period of great pressure, in the Eastern and Western countries, and at a period of great dangers for many aspects of the mass media. He drew attention to the dramatic development in editorial rooms because of an ever- growing struggle based on profit- making interests. The freelances were also the victims of this disastrous policy. He recalled that, ten years ago, he made a survey on editorial freedom and today he concluded that nothing much has changed in this field. Finally he called for support for IFJ unions experiencing financial difficulties, notably the American Newspaper Guild colleagues. .../... - 4- Responding to Klinkenbergs' question on the new regional Trade Union Development office in Caracas, White made it clear that this Latin American office was set up on the basis of an agreement between the Norwegian Journalists' Union and the IFJ. It would also allow the Brussels- based Trade Union Development Officer to strengthen his activities in other parts of the world. F. Boussel( France, FO) noted that the number of observers from Eastern countries at Congress was impressive. He expressed doubts about essential changes in the leading spheres which had to show a new face to remain on the scene. He denounced the complicity between the western capitalists( Murdoch, Maxwell, Hersant) and the eastern" bureaucrats". He also noted the growing policy of denying trade unions the negotiation of collective agreements and insisted on trade union independence from governments. In view of the attempts at privatisation of the Radio Television Service in France, he called for a public service, fully independent from the State and from capital. bns Wolfgang Mayer( Germany, IG Medien) expressed his union's concern about increasing trends of media concentration and the employers' policy to use freelances. He thanked the IFJ for all its support in the industrial daily press disputes in Germany. Recently, German colleagues had 15 strikes in various press enterprises. Today, the major concern remained the conquest of East Germany by a number of Western media companies. Koldo San Sebastian( Spain, ELA/ STV) recalled that he was detained in 1975 and all ani press freedom was suppressed. He reaffirmed that industrial democracy was sdi bos 10 03 Isino essential in all societies. He also supported the right of people to be informed in their own language. He felt that today we witnessed the victory of profits to the prejudice of freedom and in this context, small media enterprises could contribute to development. Bob Kernohan( South Africa, SASJ) thanked the IFJ for its support to both IFJ unions in South Africa. They had initiated a process with the Association of Democratic Journalists in view of creating a Federation. He launched an appeal to all IFJ unions in order to provide them with the appropriate documentation to achieve this objective. He reported that the situation in South Africa was moving slowly, 3 colleagues were still detained under the Security Act, censorship was still a current practice, a Cape publisher's office had been searched and repression was severe with hundreds of laws suffocating the press. The right to be informed was still ignored in the South African constitution. M. Ben Salah( Tunisia) felt that efforts towards IFJ and IOJ unity would benefit to the whole profession. In his eyes, disinformation was linked to media ownership and constituted a great danger. Poverty and ignorance could also impede freedom of expression and he called on the IFJ to pay more attention to the situation in the Maghreb countries. He ended by inviting the IFJ to hold its next Congress in Tunisia. K. Kolodziejczyk( Poland, SDP) stressed the low level of journalism and trade unionism in Poland. The Polish journalists were in great need of professional ad training and education on industrial questions. The new moves and the free market in eastern countries compelled the mass media to reach a higher level but they had to start from scratch and the Polish journalists were not prepared for the challenges. Unemployment, how to adapt into new technologies, how to negotiate salaries and propaganda in journalism as a tradition were a few of the difficulties the Polish press faces today. Kolodziejczyk reaffirmed that free market principles could destroy solidarity and that Polish journalists had to learn much from western countries without repeating their mistakes. Finally, she confirmed the SDP application for full IFJ membership. .../... - 5- Tony Wilton( New Zealand) recalled the poor situation of the press in Fiji, a country suffering from isolation and from a lack of resources in professional and educational training. He thanked the IFJ for its assistance in development work in the Pacific region. R. García( Spain, UGT) called for solidarity with the London- based National Union of Journalists in their struggle to maintain the union's right to negotiate collective agreements. He reported that his newspaper had set out its status regarding collective bargaining. He also denounced the Galician Radio and Television Company( CRTVG) which had circulated a black list with the agreement of people linked to CRTVG and the autonomous government of Galicia. This black list gave a number of private details and personal opinions of journalists and other workers within the Company. He also denounced the murder of the Spanish photographer, Juan Antonio Rodríguez in Panama while on assignment to cover the USA invasion last December. He noted that his union had asked for compensation from the U.S. government on behalf of the journalist's family. J. Ecclestone( NUJ) thanked the IFJ unions' support on behalf of Farzad Bazoft, a freelance reporter with" The Observer", who was hanged in Baghdad last March. Such a tragic case should lead the unions to more vigilance and more work on behalf of nobno the profession. He also denounced the silence of the British Governement after the bes execution, linking it to a number of British economic interests in Iraq. Zvi Goren( Israel) regretted the Federation's inability to follow current information and to react quickly because meetings are held at wide intervals. He felt that we should consider the current events every three months in order to remain flexible. He also briefly reported on the practice of censorship in Israel which is most strongly felt by the Palestinian press and has increased since the Jewish emigration from the USSR began. His union had informed the Press Council of mobo that situation. gid Roberto Mejía recalled the tragic reality in Peru where 24 journalists have been killed over the last months. In Chile, exiled journalists have been tortured. Thanks to the IFJ, this reality was no more ignored. moles bswollo Mr. Shin Yoon- seob( Korea) reported on the conflict at the Korean Broadcasting System which led 5,000 television workers to go on strike, and he denounced the two brutal assaults on the staff of the KBS, in April, by the police. There was a Strike Solidarity Day on May 12. He launched an appeal to IFJ unions for bearo solidarity. Jimbs- 91 03 0091 Bundel mi Mr. R. Prabhu( India) reported that his country was on the way towards democracy after the 1989 elections. His union, the NUJ, was going ahead with the project to set up a journalism training institute, and to approach new advanced technologies. The NUJ was also planning to open regional centers with training courses for young journalists. He confirmed that his union was concerned about concentration on a national level in India and that employers had started to bargain individually with the workers. Mr. Lee Clifford( Canada, TNG) expressed his satisfaction to be the first Newspaper Guild Canadian delegate to address an IFJ Congress. After a brief background on his union, whose first Canadian section was created in 1951, he described his union's success. In 1988 there were a series of improvements for the situation of Canadian journalists and now there is a total membership of 6,000 professional journalists. Even in Quebec, and particularly at" The Gazette de Montreal", the Newspaper Guild had an important membership of French- and English- speaking journalists. - 6- 2 5.

On this very date, a great shadow has fallen over China, cutting it out from the rest of the world. for the The 20th Congress of the IFJ, gathering in Baia Chia( Sardinia), expresses its deep concern for the situation of journalists in China, who are hindered from freely carrying out their professional work. ces accordin The Congress recommends journalists in membership of IFJ unions to renounce accepting any official invitation to visit China, as long as the present situation has not been modified towards an opening to democracy".

East Timor is more than half of an island located in the oil- rich Timor sea between Australia and Indonesia. 2dm9m A2AWM The Portuguese landed on this island in the XVIth century and still live there. The Timor language is Portuguese and thanks to many centuries of Portuguese presence, the culture of the region is a very special one, since it has been influenced by different civilisations. The island was occupied by the Japanese during World War II. On April 25, 1974, Portugal decided to grant independence to Timor as well as to all the former colonies. The island's Portuguese authorities were obliged to leave the territory in 1975. The Indonesian army promptly invaded and occupied East- Timor considering it a province of their own. The greatest abuses against the citizens' fundamental freedoms and against the most elementary human rights are as repeatedly denounced by Amnesty International still committed. All types of restriction are imposed on the population, including the right to speak Portuguese. The freedom of expression and of information have been totally suppressed. A journalist authorised to enter the country, which is seldom allowed, wouldn't be permitted to contact the population. No information can be obtained or given about anything and anybody. Many journalists are not allowed to enter Timor. Many Portuguese journalists have tried to obtain the authorisation to enter, and have not succeeded. We have heard, during this Congress, from many colleagues, that they are located too far from Europe, and that, for this reason, they are forgotten just as when they need help. East Timor is such an example. It is a small territory close to a large and as powerful country. Its population does not have newspapers in which they can freely ban express their opinion. If they did so, they would run the risk of being imprisoned in Indonesia. The invasion took place a long time ago and many people already forgot the two Australian journalists killed by Indonesian troops while they were accomplishing the important and essential task of information. The IFJ, together with all concerned journalists, protest at this situation. We want to draw everybody's attention to the Timor situation, about which many people have only shown indifference.

RULES 1. The rules governing the use of the Assistance Fund are: The Assistance Fund is composed of an amount reserved each year, at the level of 4% of the total membership fees paid; 2. 3. The fund is used to contribute towards travel expenses for representatives of journalists' unions in developing countries, in far distant countries and from unions facing serious difficulties, to participate in IFJ meetings. The General Secretary decides in each case on behalf of the Bureau and according to guidelines laid down by the Bureau. Before each Congress, half of the residue will be returned to the General Fund of the IFJ. 081281-21 CHOS T2122 09 2) Ag INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF JOURNALISTS TPC, Bvd.

Objectives The Bureau of the IFJ, meeting in Lille, April 12-14, 1978 decided to create a legal defence and aid fund, the primary objective of which was to contribute towards the financing in court of the defence of two officials of the then Union of Black Journalists, Juby Mayet and Philip Mtimkulu, who faced trial for attempting to protect the UBJ's assets from seizure by the government after the banning of the organisation. The Bureau meeting in Lille decided also that the money from this fund could be used to assist other South African journalists facing trial because of apartheid and associated legislation. The Bureau meeting in Brussels, February 21-23 1988, agreed that the use of this fund should be further extended to cover all legitimate assistance provided under the IFJ constitution for humanitarian, legal and industrial aid to South African journalists and their trades unions. 2.

The Congress reviews a brief twoyear period in the life of the IFJ, but the Federation has come a long way in that time. Our membership roll continues to grow as more unions, from all corners of the globe, lend their weight to the twin priorities of of the IFJ: press freedom and independent trades unionism. Our trade union development programme, barely three years old, now operates in 19 countries. bOur member unions, faced with the challenges of new technology, concentration of media ownership and the growth of powerful media corporations matters now recognise that traditionally tackled on a national level have to be fought internationa. y. In recent months the 8: -- Beirut. John McCarthy and Terry Anderson are still in captivity as these words are written. They remain a symbol of the need for solidarity against the tyranny of those who have contempt for human rights. But in recent years IFJ unions have had to combat more subtle journalism. Media pressures employers, often encouraged by governments with little respect for trade union rights, are sacrificing standards of journalism and decent wages and conditions for journalists in a ruthless battle for control of media advertising markets. on Numerous takeovers and mergers in the media have seriously depleted the number of independent information sources which are vital to the good health of a free press in democratic societies. are Trade union rights are being freelance journalists he attacked, being grossly exploited, journalists' copyrights are being abandoned. en sh transformation of the social and political landscape both in Europe and in Southern Africa has added greatly to burden of responsibility on the IFJ and its its an member unions in the fight for trade union rights and press freedom. the But some things in the world do not change. In 1988 some 40 or SO journalists were killed while on duty. In 1989 up to 60 died, many of them in in Central and South America. Thousands more were the victims of beatings, arrests, detentions and expulsions. The journalists held hostage in be In the face of these threats, the IFJ Bureau has tried to demonstrate in the past two years that the IFJ is not just a bureaucratic machine. We are a trade union organisation which aims to take practical action. Our actions try to reflect the needs of journalists as workers and also as professional communicators. The strongest challenge we face in the new decade is not just to continue this work, but consolidate it. to which This strategy paper, introduces the 1990-1992 Working Programme, puts forward perspectives. some new The 1990s offer great hope for unity and solidarity among journalists of the world based upon principles of press freedom and independent trades unionism. It is an opportunity we cannot afford to miss. AIRO AIAS EOPOL SHT MI YT IFJ Workload: A Dilemma O THE IFJ is growing fast. The Federation's workload has more than doubled in less than three years. On January 1 1987 we had three staff and one half time. On January 1 1990 we had eight staff members. The IFJ workload covers a lot of ground: * Our Trade Union Development Programme involves 19 countries on five continents; * We are active in campaigns and surveys dealing with copyright, concentration of ownership, freelance employment, safety of journalists; and and We are continuing our longstanding work of protests interventions. over censorship press freedom abuses; * We are busily creating new structures for co- operation with other international organisations and at the same time heightening the image ane profile of the IFJ itself. All of this, and more, is supervised by a Secretariat which is responsible for issuing press cards, preparing translations, writing and editing publications and organising the regular meetings of the IFJ. The Secretariat is at the limit of its capacities, yet demands for more activity and increased work in the coming years will certainly grow. And we cannot ignore them. The question for the IFJ is a simple one: how do we cope with this extra work without adding to the strain on the Federation's financial and human resources? Unions cannot afford to pay vastly increased fees, but we have to respond when unions call on us for help. It is an intolerable dilemma for a trade union organisation. Faced with this dilemma the 2 .. YTIN Bureau meeting in Paris in September 1989 had to take some hard decisions about the expansion of our Trade Union Development work in the coming year. The Bureau has decided that the IFJ's first priority must be to assist IFJ member unions. As we expand our membership base this will become ever- more necessary. do Another concern for the IFJ is the work. our Like all way we international organisations we work to a worldwide framework, but when we analyse our working patterns we see that there is often a focus on one area rather than another. This is natural; the world is an unbalanced and turbulent place at the best of times. But the Bureau believes we must try to get the right balance, by working, first, with our member unions and, secondly, with those unions who seek practical COoperation with the IFJ. mob A third objective is to make sure that our work is of the of the highest quality; that we use good, well materials produced and that we evaluate our activity in a considered and productive way. All of these issues prompted the Bureau to take a hard look at the IFJ and to make strategy proposals that, in the short term at least, will solve some of these difficulties. A Framework For The Future THE Bureau began by looking at the Secretariat itself. The Bureau believes that the operation and structure of the Secretariat should be formalised. The further expansion of the Brussels headquarters should be carefully and strategically managed. At the moment, led by the President and General Secretary, the Brussels office initiates work and to it carry out. With 3 also tries Federation in the region; an ever- d* In Africa, the unions in Tunisia, are well increasing workload this system is Morocco and South Africa liable to falter if not break down placed to do similar work, and in Asia, the Hong Kong altogether. Journalists Association and the NUJ Malaysia, are already well established bases from which to develop in the region. unions Already many IFJ member such as provide human resources tutors in trade union training programmes. And the IFJ continues to rely heavily on IFJ Working Parties, supported by member unions. The Bureau believes that by finetuning the work of the Secretariat to give it more of a co- ordinating role, and by involving member unions more eds directly in IFJ work, this apparently intractable problem could be solved. bas STOP ge 261 The Secretariat will examine ways of delegating responsibility for IFJ work to member unions, but ensuring, through proper supervision, that all activities are carried out according to the policies and priorities laid down by Congress and the Bureau itself. blued ni Since the Bureau meeting in Paris the Secretariat has been putting in place the first pieces of such and strategy: nommo a The Safety of Journalists anoprogramme is being carried out with the direct assistance of the NVJ in abs the Netherlands; ad * The Nork Journalistlag in Norway has helped prepare a comprehensive ' ta joint programme of work which will ST develop IFJ trade union, copyright and professional training activity in Latin America; * The Deutscher Journalisten of sni sban Verband and IG Medien in the Federal the Germany, o Republic of Danish Journalists Union and the Union of are working Journalists in Finland so with the IFJ on projects to assist the sd development of free trades unions for journalists in Eastern Europe.

By exploring the best ways this valuable utilise of valuable store experience we can take much of the workload from the shoulders of the Secretariat and, at the same time, we can bring IFJ work closer to the rank and file membership of our unions. This Strategy need not place any financial burden on a union, but it allows unions that wish to devote more effort and financial resources to do so. By to international work developing this approach the Bureau believes we can support the extensive Working Programme proposed for the eyears 1990-1992. The Bureau has also defined the policy- making. and management, the proposed supervisory role Executive Committee. or of the its The Bureau wants Bureau Members future Executive Committee Members to have more responsibility for representing the IFJ and policies. The Bureau also wishes to improve the profile and role of the Regional Advisers, giving them more direct involvement and responsibility for IFJ activities in their regions.

It will have a key role in monitoring the progress of IFJ activities agreed by Congress, in developing IFJ policy to meet new conditions, and to ensure the good management of the our financial and human resources. will as 4 聲 36 The Bureau also believes that the IFJ structure should be able to cope with matters of genuine urgency, which are increasingly frequent in a world of rapid change. noli BA That is why the Bureau suggests that an Administrative Committee, comprising the existing principal officers President, Vice- Presidents, Treasurer and General Secretary should be able to meet when required to deal with urgent matters between of the new tar meetings Committee. bas The Bureau Executive believes that the to changes to the IFJ Consitution should not be cosmetic.

To dilute or modify it would undermine not. only the IFJ itself, but would also hinder the progress of those journalists who are in the vanguard of the worldwide movement towards greater freedom. bas Setting The Pace of Work ent WHAT effect will this new framework, built upon the need for practical work, have on IFJ activitiy in the years to come? It certainly means slightly less travel for the General Secretary and the Education Officer with more to Bureau delegated responsibility and Executive Committee members. But to work efficiently the strategy some guiding principles. also needs The Bureau has identified three: that Firstly, the IFJ should strive to achieve global balance in its activities. In each part of the world journalists are facing difficulties, some of them are common to all, but often the problem is a product Activities, organised of local conditions. therefore, have to be according to the needs defined by unions in each region. The pace of work must be set by but unions, the IFJ's member objective will be to ensure that there is a degree of activity in every part of the world. Second, the IFJ will be working to consolidate the advances it has made in the past few years. We shall try to improve our materials, publications and techniques. There will be more into relevant local translations languages. Above all, we shall be trying to raise the level of understanding the general among membership of our unions about the IFJ and its activities. Torbices Third, the Congress and the Bureau will take responsibility for setting down clear priorities for our work. It is not possible to do everything at. once, even if member unions demand it. So we have to plan our work better. edia d) sivane shil tuo to Aanival Ντου sdj aniqolovab Finance and Organisation our THE changes to the IFJ Constitution and the proposals to alter financial rules are themselves important part of the Strategy for modernising the IFJ. an When the IFJ was first set up the regular statutory meetings were the only opportunity that member unions had to meet each other. The meetings are still a crucial element in our democratic structure, but much has changed. f We now organise more regional and international conferences which provide an abundance of opportunities for IFJ member unions to meet, to discuss issues and to express solidarity. In the past months we have sponsored international conferences in Australia, the United States and Great Britain. And there have been regional meetings in Africa, Latin America, Europe and the Pacific. More are planned. At the same time, the introduction of electronic communications such as telefax means unions can communicate efficiently. The rapid expansion of our Trade Union Development Programme means more unions can have the benefits of practical co- operation with the IFJ. The changes in our Constitution, which will move us towards a threeyear cycle of activity recognise these developments. Under the proposed new cycle the Secretariat will be able to devote more time and effort to concrete projects. In the context of consitutional change, the Bureau has taken the opportunity to look again at the way we arrange our finances, particularly the payment of affiliation fees. The system of exoneration of payments of fees, by which individual unions in financial difficulties have to make an annual appeal for help, is no longer appropriate. 5 The Bureau believes that a new system is badly needed, not one that divides IFJ unions, but one that systematically recognises the world to be an unequal place and one in which we can strive to ensure that all unions achieve the the high level of financial organisation and independence enjoyed by only a minority of our members. Conclusion THE changes set out in this brief paper are part of a reform programme which is aimed at making the IFJ more efficient, more dynamic and more democratic. The Bureau believes that the future of the IFJ can only be secured by a practical programme of activity which addresses the major problems facing member unions. But the Bureau also recognises that the strength of the IFJ lies in the quality of its member unions. For that reason the movement for reform should not be seen as a purely bureaucratic exercise involving Bureau members and full- time staff alone. The challenge of changing the way we work to meet the needs of our members is one that must be taken up by every union within the IFJ family. AIDAN WHITE General Secretary.

The International Federation of Journalists continuously seeks to promote press and trade union freedom and the freedom of journalists in the world and endeavours gid to improve legal and contractual regulations likely to guarantee and extend these nb freedoms. von Bo bat of The Federation's first duty is to assist its member unions and, secondly, to work with those unions who share the Federation's objectives and seek practical co- operation with the Federation. 03 noiaaims brez of The Federation will strive to achieve global balance in its activities and it will seek to ensure that there is some activity in every part of the world. The general objectives of the Federation work are: I.

The Approach and its Basics. ex 300 200b goldnevito Background Information. molal: The Sydney Conference, held in February, 1989, discussed the claim for" Free Flow of Information" in the light of the ever growing tendency towards global concentration of the ownership of medias. The deliberations did not reflect much interest in Authors' Rights and Copyright as a possible instrument for protecting journalistic works. nizations be The internationally raised and praised- demand for" Free Flow of Information", supported especially by UNESCO, reflects a lack of preciseness and easily gives rise to bias. On one hand it is a sound claim for man's access to news and knowledge so that he will be capable of forming his own opinion in the political and social spheres regardless of the political system of his country. In this sense it represents a democratic human right. On the other hand, and against the guarantees of the UN- charter, it has been invoked in order to limit the protection of authors. A free flow does not necessarily imply an access without costs to all sorts of works or to all medias, and in practice it is understood that the hard- ware production costs will be covered in the best way possible. Whether a publisher will risk the publishing or not, will be his own choice. But the claim for" Free Flow" has been used for depriving the author of his or her basic choice and turning his or her protection into a mere claim for " Equitable Remuneration" which in practice will be fixed on a humble scale. The" Free Flow" implied a request for a free use by everybody on the condition that a modest fee be paid to the author. " Free Flow of Information" is a concept meant to legalise a reasonable exploitation of works by a great number of minor users. Its object was never to safeguard monopolistic enterprises, whether they want to make use of unrelated works or to translate the concept into an unlimited use of works made by their employees. beac creed Concentration of media ownership is not a monopoly like a giant detergent or chemical company. It affects not only the employment opportunities and economic conditions of journalists but also the access of the public to accurate and impartial information. In addition, it can hinder the free development of culture and the ability of minorities to express themselves. - 2 2. Journalists and Copyright. B Ideas, news, and knowledge as such are outside the scope of copy-. right. What can be protected is the form of expression of literary and artistic works. A work must be an original work which means that it must reflect the personality of the creator. The Berne Convention- Article 2, par.( 8)- states that protection shall not apply to news of the day or to miscellaneous facts having the character of mere items of press information. The rationale of this provision is" that the Convention does not set out to protect mere news of miscellaneous facts because such material does not possess the qualifications necessary for it to be considered a work. On the other hand, the words used by reporters and other journalists reporting and commenting on the news are protected to the extent that they carry sufficient intellectual effort for them, to be considered as literary and artistic works."( Guide to the Berne Cenvention, 1978, p. 22-23). Within these limits journalistic works will, accordingly, enjoy copyright protection on a par with other works. This seems quite satisfactory on the surface. A picture of the 4T realities must, however, be painted in sombre colours. Conside- o red globally, the protection of journalist- authors is weakened in different ways.oint bas geo ed A vast number of journalists are in employment; their situation will also be governed by labour regulations, and this may have a serious impact on the copyright situation as well. In the absence of legislation to the contrary the prevailing opinion in many countries on the Continent has been that the employer will acquire the rights to a work created by an employee in so far as it is necessary or reasonable to fulfil the purpose of the employment. All other rights will remain with the author. In countries within the sphere of the Anglo- Saxon tradition the opposite opinion prevails; copyright to works created by an employee in the course of employment is vested directly in the employer. The UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act, 1988, has sharpened the position, Section 11, Par.( 2) stating with no restrictions that " Where a literary, dramatic, musical or artistic work is made by an employee in the course of his employment, his employer is the first owner of any copyright in the work subject to any agreement to the contrary." Although the original author retains the moral rights they will not apply to anything done by or with the authority of the copyright owner where copyright in the work originally vested in the employer( Section 79).aw debam ex: European Community directives have been passed on" chips" and soft- ware on the Anglo- Saxon lines. Although no inference can- be directly drawn to other copyright- matters, the directives ind- ne icate that the European Commission is ready to listen to the employers and their claims for ownership of works. b bas pes of blidug on 20 mao 1 gobbe al sevieamed assigne od asidixonim 26 y# lflds art Bre - - 3- Authors' rights may be transferred, assigned or negotiated. A transfer of rights may cover the copyright in full or partially. The agreement may be an individual contract as well as a collective- or part of a collective- agreement entered by the author's trade union. A collective labour agreement may well result in a copyright solution contrary to or changing the position in law. In practice it is extremely difficult to negotiate a draft improving the status in favour of the employees. On the contrary the labour agreements will assign part of the rights to the employer, even when they have remained with the employees. Leaving the traditional media aside mainly the newspapers, journals etc.- the situation is even worse. In the world of videograms and films the manufacturer can rely on the Berne Convention Art. 14 and Art. 14( bis), and the national legislations based thereupon. The manufacturer( the film- maker) will either be the first copyright owner or have the authors' rights assigned to him this transfer taking place according to law ( cessio legis), or on the rule of presumption, or on a contractual basis. Only if the basis is that of contracts, and they have the character of collective agreements, will the authors' organizations be able to adhere to a transfer of rights on the condition that royalties will be due to the authors according to the use or the results of exploitation of the film- work. d Broadly speaking, the patterns will be similar as regards radio and television. In some countries the unions of journalists have been able to be restrictive in the transfer of rights when negociating agreements, but in general a far ranging transfer has been accepted by the employees. Many feel the pendulum has swung too far particularly taking into account advances in technological and distribution systems and that the majority of rights should revert to employees. The best method of regaining rights for employees is through collective agreements and the only way to secure such collective agreements is against the background of a copyright law which is tough and unequivocally in favour of employed authors. In summing up, it might be true to say that although copyright should in theory be an adequate instrument for protection of journalists in regard to the exploitation of their works, in practice the protection is quite insufficient, or rather it has been handed over to the commercial counterparts or employers. Especially if the employer is a global monopolist owning or controlling various medias newspapers, periodicals, film- or video- production industry, radio companies, cable distribution, cinemas, advertising companies, etc., etc.- the consequences are distressing. Copyright has been turned against the authors tuo add bas abrensel to themselves.10p 3. A New Bridge between Labour Law and Copyright Law. The outcome of collective agreements in the labour market will always depend on the strength of the opponents. Obviously, and for many reasons, circumstances vary from country to country, 4- even if countries are socially and culturally close to each A other. Unions will give different priorities to problems, and they will be more or less successful in negotiating. Unions of journalists share these conditions with other unions. Accordingly, the patterns of national collective agreements are not easily compared or put together in a joint balance sheet. open of duplib ylemsze at di sottos I we ni no t Nevertheless, international considerations will be called for when confronting monopolistic enterprises of global nature. To a wide extent they enjoy the possibilities of a free choice of rid jurisdiction, country of production, where to negotiate and enter into employment contracts. The journalists will, therefore, be compelled to try to lift their national agreements, or part thereof, up to an international level co- ordinating the best working conditions. bidad IFJ should be the forum for this. We are not dealing with wages or working hours but with the transfer of rights- copyright- from the employee to the employer. The journalists differ from those in other labour circles in having a dual basis. They are creators and authors as well as part of the labour force, and sp they are in that capacity carrying the privilege as well as the burden of guaranteeing the freedom of expression in the media. Their copyright should be transferable only to the extent that this guarantee will not be jeopardized. avad ajalisiruot bos Although the treatment of authors' rights in regard to films and radio programmes differs from country to country, it should be mentioned that the rules of employment are not mandatory. Even the UK Copyright, Designs and Patents Act, Sec. 11 is" subject to any agreement to the contrary". A relevant question will be if IFJ has sufficient strength to enforce a global harmonization of the national agreements in regard to the transfer of copyright. Resolutions passed by the Federation are not enforcable, and the Federation has no power to negotiate a global agreement with media- organizations. Even with that power an agreement would probably not cover monopolist enterprises who are unaffiliated to the organizations of employers. And a moral pressure supported by a strong opinion is not likely to convince the employers to treat IFJ as a representative of employees. Alternatively, the use of ILO should be considered. ILO will in the near future invite to a meeting to deal with the problems of journalistic work. The problems of monopolistic enterprises and their effects on Press Freedom will obviously be an essential part of the agenda and the outcome of the meeting could well be a draft Bill of Rights for journalistic work containing clear legal guidelines for journalists working for monopolistic enterprises. If so, the transfer of copyright will have to be considered in this context. ins bas Ivdo to emfoodo enoase yase 103 - 5- A Bill of Rights will most likely be in the nature of a recommendation to the member- states and the parties in question. It will greatly support, however, the national unions of journalists in their negotiations and make it difficult for the employers to evade the specifications in the Bill of Rights. In two ways a Bill of Rights of this kind will assist in improving the relationship with monopolistic media- enterprises. It will, hopefully, describe that a journalist may not be employed in the enterprise as such. A precisely defined employment. place and working field will be essential for the employer's use of works made in the course of employment. It shall, further, state that a transfer of copyright will be acceptable only within this field of employment. To this should be added that the moral right will in all cases remain with the journalist. What might be achieved in this way will be a revival of Copyright for the protection of the journalist as the original author. 4. A Link to Competition Law. It is of interest to consider whether anti- trust legislation( anti- monopoly laws) could be significant in safeguarding a Bill of Rights of the kind described. It has been used against the monopolistic enterprises e.g. in the United States setting up restrictions for the media companies and their ownership of media of different kinds. The EC has till now shown little or no interest in pursuing matters in this manner. The mentioned Bill of Rights cannot be expected to interfere with the ownership of enterprises. But anti- trust legislation will be important nevertheless. Admittedly labour conditions and collective agreements with labour unions fall outside the scope of anti- trust legislation, but that is not so as regards intellectual rights. Ispi If a Bill of Rights has been passed, and a monopolistic enterprise claims a transfer of copyright extending beyond what is g permitted there will lie a case for authorities controlling restricted practices or other infringements of anti- trust legislation. This aspect is advantageous, because an abuse of monopolistic power will not presuppose a legally binding Bill of Rights, its possible nature of recommendation sufficing. The journal of the remo ए - 6- Anti- trust legislation is not universal. It differs from country to country. It is, however, strong in the United States, United Kingdom, and the European Communities. It is well known that the European Commission is keen to protect the free flow of goods and services. It may be safely maintained, however, that preliminary tranfer of copyright is outside that scope. And the Commission is empowered to act whenever an abuse has an effect for the European states. JI beyolq 5." Author's Licence" as a Weapon. A number of compulsory licences have been passed in the member states, limiting the exclusive rights of the authors. This change of attitude among the legislatures has been strongly opposed by the authors and their organizations, and rightly so. On this background it may give rise to surprise if the authors themselves should recommend the introduction of a new" author's licence". The purpose supporting it would be the creation of an instrument for delimiting in a new way the threatening powers of global monopolistic media enterprises. Notwithstanding a Bill of Rights of the nature already described it should be remembered that a far reaching transfer of copyright will take place from employees to the employer, the latter acquiring the exclusive rights and thereby a controlling position as to the use of works, of the primary use as well as of the later use by his other medias or by others. An unsound judgment or the will to pursue his own interests on this behalf may well have damaging consequences for an adequate use of the works guaranteeing a reasonable standard of" free flow of information". 1 法 # 1 adid The Berne Convention permits- Art. 9, par.( 2)-, the repro- 13 Bed duction of works" in certain special cases", provided that such reproduction does not conflict with a normal exploitation of the work and does not unreasonably prejudice the legitimate interests of the author. According to the Convention- Art. 10( bis). it shall be a matter for legislation in the member states to permit the reproduction by the press, the broadcasting or the communication to the public by wire of articles published in newspapers or periodicals on" current economic, political or religious topics", and of broadcast works of the same character, in cases in which the reproduction, broadcasting or such communication thereof is not expressly reserved. Nevertheless the source must always be clearly indicated. It will not, of course, be desirable to permit a free use of all published journalistic works, which would cause unfair harm to both employers and the journalists. FIP IFI - 7- 8 10 1128 s to co snt e nt fuser flow vam addig 10 112 But the free flow of information may call for a limited free use if the work has been published by a monopolistic enterprise, so that the dissemination of the work will be reasonably guaranteed. This will be in the general interest of the journalists employed by a monopolistic enterprise. A non- monopolistic publisher will with some important qualifications typically permit such a use, so that it will not" conflict with a normal exploitation of the work." Wlict with a t The use to be permitted will not cover all works and should probably not extend to( 1) books,( 2) dramatic and dramatico- musical works, and( 3) cinematographic works. It may be suggested that the object of the use in question shall follow more or less the wording of Art. 10( bis), and be limited to" current economic, political or religious topics". The terms might be elaborated and exemplified in a relevant manner. According to the philosophy of Art. 9, par.( 2), the use shall not unreasonably prejudice the legitimate interests of the author. As has been stressed above," the author" may well be the employer. He will have an interest in encashing a remuneration, but the journalist, whose work is used, should be remunerated as well. To ensure this result we shall, once more, apply the anti- trust legislation invoking it to prohibit a monopolistic enterprise in expressly reserving the reproduction right, as mentioned in Art. 10( bis), such a reservation amounting to an abuse of monopolistic power. And the Bill of Rights shall foresee the necessary implication that a use by others by means of a compulsory license will in terms of employment guarantee an equal remuneration to the employee. Having accepted that anti- trust legislation may well interfere with reproduction rights it is possible to discuss an" author's licence" as part of the obligations deriving from a monopolistic status. It is, therefore, not solely dependent on the wording of the Berne Convention. 6. A Global Administration of Rights. A solution following the indicated lines will probably not be workable without the establishment of a global administration of rights. The administration is intended to cover re- use of journalistic works, and primarily the secondary reproduction rights. The journalistic authors will be entitled to receive their share of the remuneration due from an" author's licence". International Federation of Journalists - 8- The introduction of a Bill of Rights may well result in a general perception that the exercise of consent from an employer having within the limits described the authority to authorize a secondary use of an employee's work should be dependent on a splitting of the remuneration with the journalist. If the moral rights remain with the author he or she will have the right to be identified as author, and it will, accordingly, be possible to control globally a secondary use of the works. An organization administering the authors' rights will have the power to encash what becomes due to them. xe Ismon s lv toil Further, an administration of this kind will be applicable when the secondary use depends on a consent from the author, as will be the case today in a number of countries. This administration could take place in the country of origin or in the country of secondary use. Experience from other fields shows that the latter solution will be preferable. In consequence of this the journalists will have to create rights organizations in each country, knitted together by reciprocal agreements. The national organization will be responsible for establishing contracts with the media, controlling the use, receiving remunerations due, and for settling the accounts with its own members as well as with its sister societies. IFRRO will be the competent international forum for coordinating this administration of rights, already experienced, as it is, in the administration of reprography and other reproduction rights. IEJ has from the start of IFRRO invested a great interest in its functions. 998010 ( 6) of bДA.ewog bi Jayoigme do amb HE II s Helsinki, February 1990 s'zod Yam molds.

Events in Eastern Europe present new and exacting demands upon the IFJ and its member unions. There is a need, therefore, at a time of rapid change and in circumstances where resources are limited, to have a clear understanding of what needs to be done and what can be done. It is a moment, too, when many journalists unions around the world see see opportunities for worldwide strategies based upon the unity of existing organisations. Therefore, the IFJ should declare itself, clearly and unambiguously, on these matters and should adopt guidelines for dealing, not only with the emerging independent unions in Central and Eastern Europe, but also on its relations with other international organisations. axzow First, the IFJ declares that all of the work of the IFJ is based on its constitution which sets out two priorities: the defence and protection of both press freedom and of independent trades unionism. Our first duty, of course, is to our member unions. But we are ready to work with other journalists unions who share our basic aims and who seek co- operation with the IFJ to realise these objectives.

Finally, the Conference believes that the IFJ's work during this Congress is bound to strengthen the present program. the As MABAO CAI " яT MI@ T@ IJAИяшOT BHT ROR 30MLJARD MIй" " BATMUDI 90 T21JAMЯ 09.30 ed Polites ly during the Congress, 5 Cat Af8s SHT OT MITAG энт от вИТАЛИЗММОСВЯ in jointly 2165y owt deal grid to mempong doangolavab: .917 I bri anothb Hedman Hd proms veb edi not be STQ eisand ot to noidssilsi nt Isnoi dard asidividua noinu VIIsisqas 29132 to moi sufsve evidio a vom no SAT s Toqquz 45/ Hw ones defbewe $ 769 edT ed bluoda jneneltib ad: TIJ Pinian and Jard duo betning vil hose brs proinu doss mind iw prideixe gemeldong. tfb ni bos.. 442Tango of aved at of beeth colleague journal. 79dfo 9306 ow tra speleb 94T ge sarit and to 900 ddous: esidue isted allop moitssinspio notou es bue a10367odello to notioq To onining add# edito.add proms noinu to Level and evenw annuos add ni yil MUGU bsazenda 2m67009 en bra po due Isiness Jeom 29 asvidu9x9 of giup el tram sr Ja A prinient edit bns etnomubob to hottestidue T add mot Iuteau viementxe ed of beyong aved net lenoidsis berlat dates bra bns esoneries Inq nemqolevab netted a dallamos o zasem sidsuisv delig 5 ad( Ifw#qi me pong tuo to evide Journa Nations Union of stion 02 Plowac WITH dmsm enoida/ jopen evideli bris andrea ai ida of brood al 229/ prodane SHIN YOUN OEN EE SING WORKING PROGRAM ✓ Pacific Activity The 20th IFJ.

Four specialist speakers( J. Ecclestone, NUJ Great Britain, Hans Verploeg, NVJ Netherlands, Irène Robadey, ISETU General Secretary and Michael Boggs, General Secretary of the Chemical Workers Federation) analysed the situation in their country or in Europe and informed on the experience from other groups of workers. Some Italian experts and authorities reported on the Italian experience in this field. A statement was issued after the Conference calling for a new phase of activity on the question of transnational media developments, including a decision to organise an international Day of Action in favour of more awareness from the public on the concentration danger. STATEMENT The INTERNATIONAL FEDERATION OF JOURNALISTS, meeting in Sardinia, Italy at the time of its 20th World Congress, declares: THAT freedom of expression, freedom of the press and freedom of association are essential preconditions of democratic societies; THAT these essential freedoms can be only protected if mass media systems fully respect the independence of professional journalism and the employment rights of journalists; THAT the process of concentration of media ownership across different sectors of the media and the development of multimedia transnational corporations threatens the free flow of information and the diversity of information sources necessary for the practice of democracy. Therefore, the International Federation of Journalists, noting the increasing concern among journalists and other media workers from all parts of the world, declares its intentions to lauch a new worldwide campaign in defence of press freedom and workers' rights in the media. The IFJ demands that governements and public authorities, at a national and an international level, take urgent action to: 1. PRESERVE professional standards and ethics among journalists and to guarantee the diversity of written and audiovisual information media, particularly through the introduction of professional and industrial democracy in the media; 2. 3. IMPOSE statutory limits to the process of media concentration; DEFEND full trade union rights for journalists and other media workers by demanding that transnational media corporations respect internationnally- recognised standards of labour practice, including freedom of association and freedom of collective bargaining. .../...
