We made a selection of  73 remarkable articles in 12 countries: Australia, Austria, Germany, France, Ireland, India, Israel, Italy, Morocco, UK, USA, South Africa.
Australia: "Executive salaries had become so large they were grotesque" - Australia's most senior Catholic, Cardinal George Pell.
Austria: Vice-Chancellor Molterer pleads for employee share ownership.
France: EADS scandal relaunched violent debates on executive salaries and stock options (500 articles!). Stock options have to be forbidden (socialist proposal). A higher taxation was finally voted on stock options to cover social security expenses. Annual survey on employee savings: It is now more than 100 billions Euro for 11 millions employees. Which role for hedge funds? Safran: Employee shareholders playing a key-role.
Germany: A new study confirms Germany's backwardness regarding employee share ownership. On the other hand, the government's working group held its first meeting and the big coalition will probably finalize a new legislation for the end of this year.
Ireland: Early Christmas for Eircom employee shareholders.
India: The new tax on employee stock options becomes reality after months of suspense.

Air India will offer employee stock options to all its 33,000 staff within a few months as it gets ready for an initial public offer. Employee Stock Option (ESOP) scheme is emerging as a great retention tool for the hospitality sector.
UK: Chancellor Alistair Darling will simplify the Capital Gain Tax. However this could mean higher taxation for employee share schemes and for transfers of businesses, in contradiction with the relief created by Gordon Brown himself some years ago as an incentive for enterprise and employee ownership. Large debate. On the other hand "FTSE-100 bosses take home 100 times more than average employees" – questions about the salaries of the top executives (and stock options !) – just like in France or the US.
Israel: National bus company was set up in 1933 as a workers' coop.
Italy: Questions about Banca Popolare di Milano - key employee shareholders of BPM, effectively controlling the bank with just 2 pct of capital.
South Africa: Sasol prepares the single largest BEE deal in the South African economy. Sasol's executive director declared that "the inclusion of white employees at lower levels is a common industry trend in a number of  large BEE transactions announced recently, and we have engaged all our trade unions in this part of the transaction".
USA: Chicago Tribune bought through an ESOP: Sam Zell tells why. Could the UAW buy General Motors: discussion continues. Much questions about stock options and executives pay: Stock Options spur risky CEO behaviour - Fallacy of stock options - Maybe it's time to restructure executive stock options. On the other had, the Securities and Exchange Commission gives final approval to the new auction method for valuing employee stock options. Finally some interesting examples of employee-owned companies: Eudora Nursing confirms that being employee owned makes the care being provided more personal. The World-Herald is the country's only employee-owned major daily newspaper. Monroe Publishing tells what makes it special to work for a cool company.
