The new Gaza state Tuesday, Aug. 19, 2014 | Shlomi Eldar, Columnist Hamas soon can pride itself on imposing an agreement on Israel, which actually opens the way for a future Gaza state — when in fact it only is obtaining what was reasonable to give the Gazans many years ago. Who's responsible for what happened in Gaza?

Economic statistics

Since then, the DPRK has released economic data only on rare occasions. Aside from the lack of availability, there are numerous other problems with using the DPRK’s economic data to obtain credible insight into the North Korean economy. As a result, governments, academic organizations, NGOs, think tanks, businesses and journalists compile estimates of North Korea’s economic performance through a variety of innovative techniques. Below I list the most frequently cited sources of North Korean economic statistics. Additional suggestions are welcome. Quick References 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

 Il blog di Wu Ming, una comunità di lettori e non solo

Pubblicato in inglese quasi vent’anni fa, Lo Hobbit: un viaggio verso la maturità, dell’americano William H. Green è una lettura critica e approfondita del primo romanzo di J.R.R. Tolkien (ed è anche il libro che ha ispirato il laboratorio tenuto da Wu Ming 4 a Bologna nella primavera scorsa). Green studia l’impianto narrativo del romanzo, ne rileva l’architettura, i temi dominanti, le costanti che ritornano; ma anche le contaminazioni e i debiti con la letteratura vittoriana per bambini e per ragazzi, soprattutto quella popolare di grande diffusione.

Ne fornisce poi una lettura psicanalitica che, al netto di qualche rigidità junghiana, presenta brillantemente la storia in chiave di “scoperta del sé” e dialettica tra figura paterna e materna. Il saggio dimostra quanto la previsione di C.S. Alessandro Bottoni. We Are the 99 Percent. 14th October 2013 Question with 172 notes Anonymous asked: How can you claim to speak for 99% of people?

We Are the 99 Percent

We don’t claim to speak for anyone, we merely present stories. 14th October 2013 Photo with 186 notes I am 23 years old I am a female (not that it should make a difference, but apparently in our society it does…) From the day I moved out of my parent’s house, I’ve supported myself 100%, not because they don’t love me but because they can’t support my dreams financially. For over two years I schlepped 2-for-1’s and shots to pay for my rent, a used car, and tuition at a community college. Now I’m attending the University of MN and I depleted all of my savings just so I wouldn’t have to take out a loan this semester.

I’m majoring in journalism, a profession I consider a civic duty.
