We are not alone in the universe

A new type of political ecology may lend the Left a broad political platform. But we must first acknowledge wills that are not human. Jonathan Metzger explains why "more-than-humanism" calls for a complete rethink in policy, planning and the law. [ more ]

Naive, the hawks would say

"Ny Tid" says that only diplomacy can defuse the Iranian bomb; "NAQD" warns that the Arab revolutions are not as feminist as the West thinks; "Blätter" wants an enquiry into institutional racism in Germany; "Letras Libres" pays its respects to a rare revolutionary; "Arena" asks the bane of the Norwegian far-Right to explain Breivik; "Res Publica Nowa" struggles for objectivity amidst the tyranny of opinion; "Merkur" is still angry with Kohl; Springerin observes how artists lead the market when it comes to precarity; "L'Homme" finds that international development begins in the home; and "Vikerkaar" reads 150 years of Estonian thanatography.

Articles published in Eurozine


Gilbert Achcar

The last tremors

Like in 1848, the Arab revolutions are spearheaded by young people whose democratic aspirations can no longer be halted, writes Gilbert Achcar. No matter what happens in the short term, there exists the real possibility that a liberal order will arise. [more]

16.11.2011


Rita Chin

Turkish women, west German feminists, and the gendered discourse on Muslim cultural difference

Islamophobia has become the defining mental state of the new Europe, concentrated mainly in the image of the female Muslim immigrant, writes Rita Chin. What began as the expression of concern for Turkish women became the articulation of boundaries between East and West. [more]

29.07.2011


Immanuel Wallerstein

The world system after 1945

1968 as world revolution, marking the shift from repressive developmentalism to regressive ultra-liberalism and the beginning of the end for the twentieth-century superpowers: Immanuel Wallerstein on the logic of global history from the Yalta Conference to the second Iraq war. [more]

Edit András

The national question is unavoidable

Eastern European artists have still to exploit the potential of art to critique national consensus on historical issues. Now that, in Hungary, cultural policy is controlled entirely by conservatives, the question of nationalism has become unavoidable, writes Edit András. [more]

09.11.2010


Diedrich Diederichsen

Cultivated mixture

The attraction of opera -- the sanctuary of bourgeois culture -- to critical artists has to do with its formal strictures, argues Diedrich Diederichsen. Opera's high degree of "definition" provides a counterpoint to the variety of non-European-white-heteromasculine perspectives. [more]

26.08.2010


Brian Holmes

Written in the stars?

Global finance, precarious destinies

Where hard physics combines with traders' animal passions, financialized civilization becomes imbued with the relations between hunter and hunted. Systemic corruption produces the disconnect between the informational sky above our heads and the existential ground beneath our feet. [more]

17.05.2010


Boyan Manchev

The metaseminar

Theses on education and the experience of critical thought

The Bologna reforms embody a narrowly utilitarian turn in higher education policy and are more a cause for concern than for celebration. A critique of the pragmatic reduction of knowledge and plea for the university as "locus of the unconditionally political". [Romanian version added] [more]

13.08.2010


Alessandro Ludovico

Art with (or without) the market

Italy as location for the exhibition "Art, Price and Value" is apt, given modern Italian artists' unique response to the country's priceless artistic heritage and the cultural influence that implies, writes Allesandro Ludovico. [more]

28.08.2009


Piotr Piotrowski

Beyond democracy

Art, the Church and the State in Poland

Several incidents of religious censorship in Poland show how the project of root-and-branch democratization fails to proffer any substantial counterweight to how art is treated, writes Piotr Piotrowski. [more]

Krystian Woznicki

Through the eyes of a zombie

Europe, those who are excluded and the event of being together

Krystian Woznicki notes that art, in times of globalization, faces the question of the representability of community -- or rather, its unrepresentability. The latter includes the community of the excluded. [more]

06.11.2008


Süreyyya Evren

"Canonizing" and "talking" magazines

Alternative publishing in the Turkish context

There are magazines that simply mirror the cultural environment and those that open up new channels of expression -- "canonizing" and "talking" magazines respectively. Publisher Süreyyya Evren outlines how "talking magazines" in Turkey can move beyond their niche audience to reach broad readerships. [more]

26.02.2008


Christian Höller, Jacques Rancière

The disposal of democracy

Interview with Jacques Rancière

While the western democratic system still serves a prototypical function for the rest of the world, internally it is faced with a range of challenges. The most serious of these is an attack from a power elite that has nominated itself the "true guardian of democratic values". [more]

30.11.2007


Markus Miessen

The violence of participation

Spatial practices beyond models of consensus

An architectural response to the need to find a form of co-existence that enables conflict to work as a productive confrontation. Markus Miessen on the necessity to break with the "consensus machine" [more]

01.08.2007


Krystian Woznicki

This blogging business nowadays

Spectacularization of the "blogosphere" and citizen journalism

The blogging movement's claim to empower the "netizen" is being undermined by the commercialization and professionalization of the "blogosphere". This necessitates a rethinking of the concept of citizen journalism, writes Krystian Woznicki. [more]

23.07.2007


Klaus Ronneberger

The art of not becoming accustomed to anything

Precarious employment in flexible capitalism

The vast reserve army of workers in precarious employment are the avant-garde of post-Fordism, constantly opening up new avenues for self-exploitation. [more]

28.10.2008


Krystian Woznicki

In digital Death Valley

Net/Language - B@bel, Aymara.org, and the Internet as language graveyard

Campaigns for online multilingualism fail to see the Internet as an environment for the development of critical net-languages and so pre-empt the death of small languages. [more]

17.07.2006


Suzana Milevska

Participatory art

A paradigm shift from objects to subjects

The new tendency towards participatory art is a response to philosophical redefinitions of community and to demands to make visible marginalized groups. [more]

02.06.2006


Hans-Christian Dany

The end of the miserable quest for the self

Brain research, determinism, and new promises of salvation

Ten years ago, the Russian futurologist Leo Nefiodov predicted that the health industry would take over from information technology as a motor for growth. People started listening more to Nefiodov when the "New Economy" bubble burst. [more]

Krystian Woznicki

Islands in the Net

From non-places to reconquered anchorages of the avant-garde

With the spread of the Internet, utopia was given a location in cyberspace. It was just a question of exploring, surveying, and settling this new continent. [more]

The EU: Broken or just broke?

http://www.eurozine.com/comp/focalpoints/eurocrisis.html
Brought on by the global economic recession, the eurocrisis has been exacerbated by serious faults built into the monetary union. In a new Eurozine focal point, contributors discuss whether the EU is not only broke, but also broken -- and if so, whether Europe's leaders are up to the task of fixing it. [more]

European histories (2): Concord and conflict

http://www.eurozine.com/comp/focalpoints/eurohistories2.html
Broadening the question of a common European narrative beyond the East-West divide. How are contested interpretations of historical and recent events activated in the present, uniting and dividing European societies? [more]

Changing media -- Media in change

Media change is about more than just the "newspaper crisis" and the iPad: property law, privacy, free speech and the functioning of the public sphere are all affected. On a field experiencing profound and constant transformation. [more]

Katajun Amirpur
Islam and democracy
The history of an approximation

http://www.eurozine.com/articles/2011-12-19-amirpur-en.html
In Iran, official revolutionary dogma has obliged "post-Islamist" philosophers to provide profound justifications for Islam's compatibility with democracy. Katajun Amirpur puts contemporary Iranian thinking on religion and politics in the context of Khomeini-era anti-westernism. [more]

Per Wirten
Where were you when Europe fell apart?

Too many Europeans have too long avoided the question of Europe, says Swedish writer Per Wirten. To prevent the EU from turning into a "post-democratic regime of bureaucrats", intellectuals need to stop mumbling and take the fear of Europe seriously. [more]

Valeriu Nicolae
Change must start from within
Roma integration: EU rhetoric and institutional reality

European member states are answerable to the European Commission regarding the integration of Roma. But what are the chances of national policies succeeding if structural anti-Roma racism exists within European institutions themselves? [more]

Europe talks to Europe

http://www.eurozine.com/comp/europetalkstoeurope.html
Nationalism in Belgium might be different from nationalism in Ukraine, but if we want to understand the current European crisis and how to overcome it we need to take both into account. The debate series "Europe talks to Europe" is an attempt to turn European intellectual debate into a two-way street. [more]

Steve Sem-Sandberg
Even nameless horrors must be named

http://www.eurozine.com/articles/2011-09-23-semsandberg-en.html
It is high time to lift the aesthetic state of emergency that has surrounded witness literature for so long, writes Steve Sem-Sandberg. It is not important who writes, nor even what their motives are. What counts is the "literary efficiency". [more]

Literary perspectives
The re-transnationalization of literary criticism

Eurozine's series of essays aims to provide an overview of diverse literary landscapes in Europe. Covered so far: Croatia, Sweden, Austria, Estonia, Ukraine, Northern Ireland, Slovenia, the Netherlands and Hungary. [more]

Mykola Riabchuk
Tymoshenko: Wake-up call for the EU

The EU shouldn't be surprised by the Tymoshenko verdict: its support of anything nominally reformist has been perceived as acceptance of a range of repressions, argues Mykola Riabchuk. [more]

Eurozine emerged from an informal network dating back to 1983. Since then, European cultural magazines have met annually in European cities to exchange ideas and experiences. Around 100 journals from almost every European country are now regularly involved in these meetings.
