On Palestine

Noam Chomsky, Ilan Pappé, Frank Barat(Editor)
…the tale of Palestine from the beginning until today is a simple story of colonialism and dispossession, yet the world treats it as a multifaceted and complex story hard to understand and even harder to solve. Indeed, the story of Palestine has been told before: European settlers coming to a foreign land, settling there and either committing genocide against or expelling the indigenous people. the Zionists have not invented anything new in this respect, but Israel succeeded nonetheless with the help of its allies everywhere in building a multilayered explanation that is so complex that only Israel can understand it.

 

The only chance for successful struggle against Zionism in Palestine is the one based on a human and civil rights agenda that does not differentiate between one violation and the other and yet identifies clearly the victim and the victimizers.

The Smartphone Society: Technology, Power, and Resistance in the New Gilded Age

  The Smartphone Society: Technology, Power, and Resistance in the New Gilded Age Nicole Aschoff We can and should tell our own stories about the kind of society we want to live in, technology and all. In doing so, we can foster new ways of thinking about our digital-analog future. But what stories should we tell? How do we deal with the myriad issues raised by our smartphones? - privacy, autonomy, addiction, surveillance, precarity, narcissism, commodification, democracy. A growing number of voices are weighing in on these questions, which is a good thing because, unlike the techno-determinists who until recently have received a disproportionate amount of airtime, it assumes that we can do something. If our future is not to be Silicon Valley´s Dis-Utopia then what is it to be? What is our version of Utopia? Or a more manageable question, What relationship should we have with the technology and corporations that have, largely through our smartphones, come to play a central role in ...
