First I want to thank Ana for inviting me to participate in this month’s
discussion. I have been part of this list
Thank you David for sharing some interesting thoughts. I think networking
in itself is a value, a virtue, similar to fortitude, justice, prudence and
temperance, the traditional Christian values.
When Jose Bové started his fight against MacDonalds and other fastfood
chains he was using his
Thank you Aristide. You are right that the violent changes to Athens, which
have altered it from a European city to a war field... indicative of the
future, is absolutely emblematic of the future and the ownership of states by
the banks. This article from February 12th, signed by Alain Badiou,
Ana,
I think you are right, insofar as it is a web of intersubjective
relations, a network does imply some pretty hearty obligations and
rights.
On the other hand, network can also imply a relationship among objects
or objectives, as a command and control tool, more or less.
I think sometimes,
dear Ana, i can empathize with you enjoying the arrival of Benjamin's
Passagenwerk,
hmm, but i hope you share his saddened sense of irony (we always have
nostalgia of what is left behind)
it's of course best not to indulge in sentimental nostalgia, wouldn't you
agree, especially in this
Dear Johannes, I was struck the same way as you after the description of
Athens as a trruly European city. I have been in almost the whole European
continent and never found two cities similar to each other, not either the
Scandinavian capitals, in the perifery of Europe, almost like the Romans

One thing that struck me, though, as I read the posts is that perhaps we should
consider how the meaning of the terms in discussion may be different in our
times from others. Some posts have recalled the movement of 68 and its
relation to the occupy movement. Other
Hi Johannes,
If you click on the link I provided you will quickly understand my position
which I already alluded to in my brief post. To this effect, Ana actually
responded to I wrote and I don't think additional commentary on my part can
be useful at this stage of the discussion. I will
Dear Ana,
I do not find Johannes reaction insulting nor patronizing. I only think it is
wrong strategically to underestimate a change. I propose a reading of an urban
field; I think that there is a significant transformation recorded in the city
of Athens and that we have to study it not as an

First I want to thank Ana for inviting me to participate in this month¹s
discussion. I have been part of this list for many years, but I don¹t write

Thanks Eduardo for joining the discussion. Under your week we are going to
be more familiar with your research and thoughts but it's nice to have you
here in the discussion, as Alicia and Leandro. I love impacient and
enthusiastic guests! :)
Regarding the importance of the new technologies
Thank you Johannes Birringer for your observations. I would like to comment the
Zizek's reference to Athens and Sparta. I was not there and I cannot see from
your reference which was his point. I made my reference to Athens because I
consider it the contemporary city that comes first in a
