Re: <nettime> Barcelona: nationalism, municipalism?

[Morlock Elloi <morlockelloi@gmail.com>]

Isn't this equivalent of identity politics, at the province level?

Bunch of cute and original provinces, with unique histories, salamis, 
Gaudis and animosities, feeling so good being themselves, expressing 
their little unique patriotic feelings, and, while doing all that, being 
insignificant minions and subordinates, even bitches, of the powers that 
have no slightest intention of disintegrating into cute communes, and 
failing to join forces (or what's left of them) with other cute 
mistresses of the powers that be?

Isn't it funny that the same entities that support identity politics 
support all these little independencies?
