Hello after sixteen years

Posted on by

https://www.dianabronson.com/ Thanks for being accessible.  It is interesting for me to connect with you after sixteen years. You see that I went to the trouble of putting subtitles on this Copenhagen discussion, which I find becoming useful again.  https://www.enouranois.eu/enouranois/english/ekdilosisenglish/indexenglishekdilosi1.htm It has been a long time since I was seriously concerned with geoengineering. I am glad that there is enough previously completed investigation still online to make it possible to take up again to some extent where one left off. Do you mind if I ask what motivated you to depart from the ETC Group? This is the English translation of my introduction to the 2010 discussion in the (now closed) municipal theatre of Aegina, Greece. https://www.enouranois.eu/enouranois/english/ekdilosisenglish/indexenglishekdilosi71m.htm We are moving into a new phase. I am very pleased that it has been so easy to find you. Best wishes, Wayne Hall  Aegina, Greece  (In Greek “Aigina”)   p.s. I am ccing my collaborator Nikos Vakolidis in the northern Greek city of Ioannina.   … Continue reading →

Capodistrias and the Aegina Active Citizens’ Association

Posted on by

The Aegina Active Citizens’ Association’s active involvement with Capodistrias as a pioneer of European integration began on November 22, 2008, with a conference at the Danae Hotel in Aegina, entitled “Capodistrias-Spinelli-Europe.” http://www.enouranois.eu/enouranois/european_integration/synedrio.htm   The conference was attended by such prominent figures such as the ambassadors of Switzerland and Ukraine, the deputy director of the European Parliament Office in Greece, the Greek historian Andreas Koukos, the Swiss historian Michelle Bouvier-Bron, not to mention the then president (and current Vice-President) of the Association, Stratos Pantavos. To quote from the local press coverage of the time (by Marilena Giannouli): https://www.enouranois.eu/enouranois/english/european_integration/Marilenagiannouli.htm “Starting from the 18th century through Capodistrias, moving into the 20th century through Spinelli, and outlining the elements of today’s European dialogue, a dialogue was opened on the necessary future developments in Europe, using the ideas of these two historical figures as a starting point, benchmark, and model. It is significant that such a dialogue began in Aegina. Altiero Spinelli played a leading role in the founding of the European Federalist Movement and exerted a powerful influence on the early decades of European integration following World War II. Later, he contributed to the relaunching of the integration process He served as a member … Continue reading →

Henry Nowak and “cultural Marxism”

In today’s conjuncture, where the role of China has come to predominate, the “cultural Marxist” outlook, if this kind of analysis is given its due https://halva.proboards.com/post/2726, remains a guide for adequate intellectual and practical orientation. The caricaturing so beloved for people of conventional right-wing views, then, now, and always (?) continues to distract more superficial mentalities: ‘a cultural Marxist ideology that teaches that white people are by definition racist, and even that non-whites cannot actually be racist. Anti-racism emphasises systemic and institutional racism as well as “unconscious bias”. I don’t recall ever reading anything so vulgar in the “cultural Marxist” texts I read back then in the heyday of the post-de Gaulle and post-May 1968 explosion of “cultural Marxism”. … Continue reading →
