Bourgeois democracy is a closed political system with definite limits and possibilities. Protecting the interests of capital is inscribed in the very logic of its operation and this can be seen in the constitutions of all states and more specifically in the supra state structure which goes under the name of European Union. [...] Διαχειριστής posted this in Analysis,In English,Society on March 30th,2010 We’ve all panicked at least once in our lives by this word. In whichever union,co-union,reunion,division.

It is the sudden fear that is caused by a [...] Gregoris posted this in Events,In English on March 23rd,2010 On Wednesday 24th March,2010 a panel discussion on “Solution and Peace”will be organized at the new building of Gonyeli Municipality in the Conference Hall.

But if it comes,it will be a happy surprise for me. But the problem will be its proper implementation. Unless Turkey turns into a democratic state,it will not be helpful for us. The almost 90 years of “Kemalist” Turkish State is [...] Η διαδικασία της επανένωσης δεν εξαρτάται μόνο που τους ηγέτες. Εξαρτάται κυρίως που τους πολιτικούς συσχετισμούς δυνάμεων μέσα στην κοινωνία.

Do we need a common,pancyprian political party in order to realise a common vision for the future of our country? Or don’t you care if the partition,which was the aim of the super-NATO since [...] Διαχειριστής posted this in In English on March 1st,2010 I have stopped believing that reunification can be achieved through negotiations of the two sides’leaders. It has been tried enough times in the past 50 years to convince us that it cannot succeed. The elected leaders are inevitably products of the existing political systems of the two sides and always have and always will [...] Πολλές φορές εστιάζουμεν στο βλέμμα μας στην κατεύθυνση της επίτευξης της συμφωνίας τζιαι αγνοούμεν ότι η επανένωση εν μπορεί να συμπυκνωθεί σε ένα κομμάτι χαρτί,συμβόλαιο συνεργασίας ή σύνταγμα.

We are in anticipation that this time a dispute we have been born into will be resolved,our island will be reunited. Well,at least some of us. The prevailing atmosphere in the North following the great disappointment of 2004 referendum is an increasing apathy at best and [...] 4 Φεβρουαρίου,2010 Δελτίο Τύπου Η Δικοινοτική Πρωτοβουλία Ειρήνης “Ενωμένη Κύπρος” καλωσόρισε την παρουσία του Γενικού Γραμματέα των Ηνωμένων Εθνών στην Κύπρο και τώρα χαιρετίζει με ικανοποίηση την ανακοίνωση σημαντικής προόδου στις συνομιλίες.

Time passes by 1,it has already been seven years since we had a demonstration in New York city. I am going to use the anniversary of that (most insignificant)event as an excuse to reminisce about the past. Time [...] Today there was a public intervention by the bicommunal peace initiative “United Cyprus” in both south and north of the Ledra Street checkpoint. People gathered with pickets and banners in Greek,Turkish and English claiming that “Cyprus is too small to be divided” and “Peace cannot be stopped in Cyprus”,demanding “Solution Now” [...] On Tuesday 26.1.2010,the coldest night of the year,we had an excellent event with over 150 people. Despite the short time we had to put it together and the communication difficulties we had a well attended event that in the words of Takis Hadjidemetriou was an event making history. Making History because we are [...] The solution of the Cyprus problem and the re-unification of the country constitutes a rapture with the existing socio-political status quo and the transition to a new historical era. The magnitude and the multiple dimensions of this rapture are often difficult to conceptualize,since we are incapable of thinking outside the partitionist context.
