A discussion on where the critique of the consumerism goes in the time of economic crisis. What does this critique mean for the leftist movement? The starting point for the seminar are the texts of John Michael Greer, e.g.The Long Descent: A User's Guide to the End of the Industrial Age.

Debata sdružení SOK. Hosté: Ilona Švihlíková, Michael Hauser, Rudolf Převrátil

Diskuze o směrech kritiky konzumerismu v době ekonomické krize. Jaký význam má tato kritika pro levicové hnutí? Je pro ni vůbec relevantní? Nutí ji k revizi dosavadních přístupů? Má levice k této kritice dál přispívat a rozvíjet ji? Nebo jsou možné a žádoucí ještě nějaké jiné přístupy?

Jako východisko pro seminář poslouží texty Johna Michaela Greera, http://thearchdruidreport.blogspot.cz a jeho knihy, např. The Long Descent: A User's Guide to the End of the Industrial Age. Zajímavý pohled vycházející ze zkušenosti rozpadu sovětského bloku nabízí drobná knížka Dmitry Orlova, Reinventing Collapse.

They must be earthbound, casual, political, managerial,…

The editors of Umělec have decided to come up with a list of ten artists who, in our opinion, were of crucial importance for the Czech art scene in the 1990s. After long debate and the setting of criteria, we arrived at a list of names we consider significant for the local context, for the presentation of Czech art outside the country and especially for the future of art. Our criteria did not…
Le Dernier Cri and the black penis of Marseille Le Dernier Cri and the black penis of Marseille
We’re constantly hearing that someone would like to do some joint project, organize something together, some event, but… damn, how to put it... we really like what you’re doing but it might piss someone off back home. Sure, it’s true that every now and then someone gets kicked out of this institution or that institute for organizing something with Divus, but weren’t they actually terribly self…
