Re: <nettime> England leaves Europe |
as they used to say in harlem: WORD the European Continental Republic needs to happen fast and was greatly inspired by Ulrike Guérot's political call - http://www.euronomade.info/?p=6759) if we want to make it a viable project we should start federating existing paneuropean movements (blockupy, diem25, d1920, noborder networks etc) toward a European Continental Movment (or smthg like that;) on a more realistic note, i think the only chance to save the EU from the abyss (Soros has already predicted its dissolution) is to turn the eurozone into a federal, regional, metropolitan state. best for the week ahead, lx On Sun, Jun 26, 2016 at 8:00 PM, Felix Stalder <felix@openflows.com> wrote: > > > On 2016-06-25 22:38, Brian Holmes wrote: > > What's really crucial - and maybe this is what you're getting at, > > Michael - is how do younger people analyze this disastrous situation?
