Few have contributed more to relativizing fascism in Croatia than Thompson. It is good news that the mayor of Zagreb and the city council are reacting www.index.hr/vijesti/clan...

Thompson: Pozivam Tomaševića na razum, inače ćemo povući puno radikalnije poteze

NASTAVLJA se prepiranje Tomaševića i Thompsona.

🔹Student list in Serbia is an extraordinary experiment in democracy

"The student movement does not offer a comprehensive political alternative, but return of politics to the public space."

Biber: Studentska lista je izuzetan demokratski eksperiment - Savremena politika

Studentski pokret ne može ponuditi sveobuhvatnu političku alternativu, ali to ni nije potrebno. Ovo je borba koja ima za cilj da uspostavi osnovne uslove za politiku.

Ifimes

My take on protests in Serbia 🇷🇸 for Bloomberg www.bloomberg.com/news/article... @biepag.bsky.social

Serbia Protests: Student-led Demonstrations Aim to Unseat President Vucic

More violence over the summer has shown the depth of discontentment in a country that the EU has been trying to keep onside.

Ein kleiner Beitrag zu den Protesten in Serbien:
www.forschung-und-lehre.de/politik/prot...

Proteste an serbischen Universitäten eskalieren

Seit November wird gegen die Regierung von Präsident Vučić demonstriert. Nun gehen Ordnungskräfte gegen die friedlichen Studierendenproteste vor.

A hotel wants to build accommodation for workers on Hvar. HDZ reacts like a far-right party. The plan is urban genocide and population exchange. Classic problem, tourism, yes, workers to actually make work not.
