You are American, but of Greek origin. Every year you spend some time in this land. What are the differences in the conditions of life that you have noted in the course of your stays in Greece, and how have these worsened with the passing of the years? I’ve been coming to Greece since […]
6 ιουλίου ‘15 Μια απελευθέρωση ενεργειών, ένα μικρό μεγάλο όχι συντακτικό: η ελληνική ψήφος έφερε σε μιαν Ευρώπη ασφυκτική, προσκολλημένη στο status quo, ένα τμήμα Λατινικής Αμερικής. Με αυτό δεν έσπασε την απομόνωση της ελληνικής αντίστασης, δεν μπορεί μόνη της, αλλά -πάθος ενάντια στον εκβιασμό, αξιοπρέπεια ενάντια στον φόβο – πέταξε στα μούτρα όλων τις […]
by Raffaele Sciortino [ITA] It was easy to expect that they would have made the Greeks pay for OXI, and so was it. In the light of the most harsh outcome of the “negotiation” between the Greek government and the Eurogroup, the discussion now revolves around pro- and anti-Tsipras stances – has he betrayed […]
With respect to Athens, for those who look to it, feel empathy and see there an unfolding development, the day of Wednesday maybe contributed to “get the feet back on the ground”.

The first is that there is a certain loser: leftist Europeism, of those saying “a bad European […]
The number of camping/resisting people on the reef looks to be short of tens of people each day, but it is difficult to give an even vaguely right number. It keeps being a significant one, of about a hundred people. The local and national media – the first ones being an expression of the interest […]
Saturday, June 20 h 2pm Piazza della Stazione Ventimiglia through which we believe there is an urgency to raise, beside the fundamental humanitarian issue (featuring hundreds of people that have been undertaking a thousand different solidarity actions for days), the political problem that, tragedy after tragedy, abuse after abuse, stands at its core. We publish […]
Samedi 20 juin 14h Place de la gare Vintimille nous croyons il qu’y a l’urgence de soulever, à côté de la fondamentale question humanitaire (qui voit tous les jours des gens se prodiguer avec des actes de solidarités), le problème politique qui, tragédie après tragédie, vexation après vexation, en est à sa base.

About a voter out of two did not go to the polls for electing regional governors: this trend steadily consolidated through the years, with a net 10% average voters’ loss in comparison to previous elections (2010) and expresses a rising discontent about the Italian ruling class, and its forms of representation and cronyism.
