Sustaining journalism

The 32nd European Meeting of Cultural Journals focuses on sustaining independent cultural journalism in an increasingly difficult public sphere. As an industry, the cultural and community media spheres in Europe are affected by shifting public funding models, digitised markets, audience expectations, and political interference. Bringing together Eurozine’s network partners and cultural professionals, as well as…

Taking back the right's monopoly on laughter is a matter of life and death

. There are few things as serious as laughter. Still, it seems to be underestimated. One usually dissects important things by citing, preferably, some Dostoevsky, but no more - by watching Monty Python. And yet - remarks John Cleese, one of the Pythons - "just think about how many great dramatic films there are, and…

The Banality of the End [about the film "Don't Promise Yourself Too Much After the End of the World"].

. The film Don't Promise Yourself Too Much After the End of the World confirms what we've known since at least the Golden Bear-winning Berlin An Unfortunate Number or Crazy Porn (2021): that its director and screenwriter Radu Jude is the most original in his approach to the cinematic form, the most entertaining and one…

Left must mature for conscription

. To most political elites, the current flooding devastating southwestern Poland is part of the political narrative. For the ruling coalition, it is a moment to demonstrate the efficiency of state bodies, for the opposition - an ideal opportunity to point out the inefficiency of the government. https://krytykapolityczna.pl/kraj/feminizm-wojsko-pobor-cwiczenia/ Despite the impressive involvement of the uniformed…

Burning down the house

Imagine a map of Luxembourg. Cute, right? If we add up all the wildfires of the EU from 2023, it would cover Luxembourg twice, totalling above five hundred thousand hectares. When this show is published in the autumn of 2024, forest fire season is still in full swing, and trends are only going to get…

Triumph of radicals in Austria. This is how the poorer middle class takes revenge on the weaker ones

. "We won't be stopped by the systemic parties or the media!" - shouted Herbert Kickl, leader of the far-right FPÖ party, a few weeks ago at a festival in the Upper Austrian city of Wels. His nervous hooting enraged a crowd equipped with red-white-and-red flags and mugs of beer. After Sunday's parliamentary elections, it…

Gastronationalism: behind the pride in traditional cuisine

In March 2023, an article in the Financial Times caused controversy around the world, in the media and at the table. In Marianna Giusti's article, historian Alberto Grandi (author of Denominazione di origine inventata, Mondadori publisher 2020) relates how he – to use the modern term – "debunked" Italian cuisine. Grandi has met with reproach…

In the eyes of people outside Poland and Ukraine, the dispute over Volyn is a pyramidal absurdity [interview].

. Katarzyna Przyborska: More Polish politicians are conditioning support for Ukraine's accession to the EU on the exhumation of the victims of the Volyn massacre. Reports of Minister Sikorski's visit to Kyiv are breaking out about the Foreign Ministry chief's conflict with President Zelenski. This looks like blackmail or a throwback in relations. First the…

A day to reflect on the value of a free and independent press

These are hard times for journalists. Marginalised by social media, disparaged as elites by populists, sometimes killed for being inconvenient witnesses (at least 42 so far in 2024, though sources vary), and now imitated by AI bots. Rarely have journalists been held in lower esteem, yet they continue to play an essential role in society.…

Let Amazon and oil corporations pay for the flood [interview].

. Paulina Januszewska: You have long called for responsible water management and climate policy, which mitigate the effects of warming global temperatures, including floods. We at Political Criticism do too - but the changes are not coming. Instead, worst-case scenarios are coming true, as in Lower Silesia recently. Don't you feel tired of repeating the…

Nazism whitewashing enters the mainstream of the radical right

. It might seem that there is no greater obviousness than the claims that Nazi Germany was an unprecedentedly criminal state, and that World War II was won by the better side. In just a few years, the Nazis slaughtered millions of people in a genocide of industrial scale, killed even more in other ways,…

The kebab, a (divisive) part of Europe

At first glance, it seems like a paradox. In The Guardian, Deborah Cole reports that Germany is claiming, against Turkey, that the döner kebab is part of Germany's national heritage. This follows Ankara's request last April for the dish to be recognised as a national "guaranteed traditional speciality", like jamón serrano in Spain or pizza…

Kobosko: We need to address both the effects and the cause of the floods [interview].

. Katarzyna Przyborska: There was a debate in the European Parliament about the catastrophic flooding in Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania, Austria. The voices were divided on: "don't ask, just pay as soon as possible, because there are people waiting there who have lost everything" and "let's note that these are the consequences of the…

Germany: Redistribution through the nation-state versus the "lifestyle left" [interview].

. James Majmurek: The Sahra Wagenknecht Movement (BSW) is causing problems for commentators and political scientists, having difficulty classifying it ideologically and placing it on the left-right axis. How would you categorize this new political creation? Is it populist left, conservative left, a variation of the far right, alt-left?. Rafal Chwedoruk: I would say that…
