The Association pour une solidarité syndicale étudiante (ASSÉ) is a Canadian student union founded in February 2001 in Sherbrooke, Quebec, which contains about 50,000 CEGEP and university-level students in 25 member student unions throughout Quebec. By its values and positions, the ASSÉ positions itself differently from the other province-wide student unions, the Fédération étudiante universitaire du Québec (FEUQ), the Fédération étudiante collégiale du Québec (FECQ) and the Table de concertation étudiante du Québec (TaCEQ). The ASSÉ forms the core of the Coalition large de l’ASSÉ (CLASSE), a temporary coalition created to counter the tuition hike and coordinate 2012 Quebec student protests. == Philosophy == The Association pour une Solidarité Syndicale Étudiante clamors for free education at all levels and for all, abolition of student debt, conservation of quality post-secondary education and the democratization of schools while opposing education commodification. It considers mass mobilization as a catalyst of social change. It favours local general assemblies as decision-making structures as opposed to referendums, considered less democratic. It also fights for responsible taxation, minority rights defense, promotes alter-globalization, demilitarization, implementation of public housing policy and the irrevocable right to dissidence. The basic principles of the ASSÉ lies on the foundations of student unionism as established in Article 1 of the Charter of Grenoble, in 1946. The Charter stipulates that the student is a young intellectual worker. Thus students must be associated on a union basis. The ASSÉ believes in the necessity of fighting to save the gains made by past student movements, as well as to make new gains, through permanent protest. Considering education as a right, rather than as a privilege, the ASSÉ is based on the following principles: 1. For quality, free, accessible, secular, non-discriminatory public education; 2. For adequate financial aid whose aim is to eliminate student debt and to ensure that fundamental needs are met; 3. For a public education network free from private-sector intrusion, including contract manufacturing; 4. For democratization of educational institutions from a perspective of self-management; 5. For union solidarity with all international progressive fights whose aim is society's well-being; 6. Against any and all forms of globalization that support the predominance of profit over the population's well-being 〔http://www.asse-solidarite.qc.ca/spip.php?article18&lang=fr〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Association pour une solidarité syndicale étudiante」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
