Greece: The End of Europe

On Wednesday, April 4, nine in the morning saw a 77-year-old man yelling in the middle of the teeming Syntagma square – the emotional centre of the Greek protests against the dictat(orship) imposed by the international monetary institutions. The old man was screaming at the hated parliament building, and his cries amounted to a seething denunciation of the fact that his debt will have to be repaid by his children and his grandchildren....

Sauvons le peuple grec de ses sauveurs!

Au moment où un jeune Grec sur deux est au chômage, où 25 000 SDF errent dans les rues d’Athènes, où 30% de la population est tombée sous le seuil de pauvreté, où des milliers de familles sont obligées de placer leurs enfants pour qu’ils ne crèvent pas de faim et de froid, où nouveaux pauvres et réfugiés se disputent les poubelles dans les décharges publiques, les «sauveurs» de la Grèce,...

Moj djed Franjo Rejc život je proveo u Bosni. Kao visoki željezničarski činovnik selio se od stanice do stanice, sve dok, nekoliko godina pred Drugi svjetski rat, nije došao u Sarajevo i zaposlio se u Direkciji željeznica, sa zvanjem konstruktora reda vožnje. Kada sam u jednome proznom tekstu prvi put spomenuo djeda koji radi kao konstruktor reda vožnje, kritičari su odreda to doživjeli kao moju postmodernističku posvetu Danilu Kišu, čiji je romaneskni,...

When Slovenia was packing the exhibition of the best contemporary design in 2011 there was double modesty, both in title and in scale. The title was Silent Revolutions, and the content was literary defined by the scale of few travelling boxes: what fits in gets to be exhibited. So, when Slovenia travelled to London, Eindhoven and Milano (and will continue to Moscow) it was like going to the desert island or projecting the time-capsule to travel through space....

Volitve in parlamentarizem

Alain Badiou
Alain Badiou
- Reading time: 21 min

Videli smo, da volitve ne izražajo ali predstavljajo subjektivnosti ljudskega gibanja, temveč mu prej nasprotujejo v korist stabilnosti države. Tisti, ki so egiptovska in tunizijska gibanja pojasnjevali kot izraz nečesa, čemur pravim »želja po Zahodu«, trdijo nasprotno. Ves čas so namreč govorili, da je pričakovan razplet protestov izvedba »demokratičnih« volitev. Če verjamete v vizijo sveta, po kateri si vesoljno človeštvo želi le harmoničnega skladja med tržnim gospodarstvom (blagoglasno ime za kapitalizem) in demokracijo (lepozveneče ime za parlamentarno Državo),...
