  • Minister of Counterculture
    26 Guardian Weekly December 23 2005-January 5 2006 Culture Gilberto Gil is a musical legend - and now a senior Brazilian politician. He tz Minister of counterculture Gilberto Gil wears a sober suit and tie these days, and his dreadlocks are greying at the temples. But you soon remember that, as well as the serving culture minister of Brazil, you are in the presenceof one of the biggest l,atin American musicians of the 60s and 70s when you ask him about his intellectual influences and he cites Timothy l,eary. "Oh, yeah!" Gil says happily, rocking back in his chair at the Royal SocietyoftheArts in London. "Forexam- ple, all those guys at Silicon Valley - they're all coming basically from the psychedelic culture, you know? The brain-expanding processesof the crystal had a lot to do with the internet." Much as it may be currently de rigueur for journalists to ask politicians whether or not they have smoked marijuana, the question does not seem worth the effort. Gil's constant references to the hippy counterculture are not simplythe nostalgia of a 63-year-old with more than 4O albums to his name. For several years now, largely under the rest of the world's radar, the Braeilian government has been building a counterculture ofits own. The battlefield has been intellectual property - the ownership ofideas - and the revolution has touched everything, from internet file- sharing to GM crops to HIV medication. Phar- maceutical companies selling patented Aids drugs, for example, were informed that Brazil would simply ignore their claims to ownership and copy their products more cheaply if they didn't offer deep discounts.

  • Making Culture Accessible
    Making culture accessible The enjoyment and fulfilment of the right to participate in culture requires an enabling environment and a legal Making culture accessible Access, participation and cultural provision framework that offers a solid basis for the protection of rights related to cultural actions. A society that demonstrates an interest in nurturing cultural and spiritual needs in conditions of liberty has a greater chance of developing a sense in the context of cultural rights in Europe of social responsibility among its members. Annamari Laaksonen This study is a general overview of existing legal and policy frameworks in Europe, covering access to and participation in cultural life, cultural provision and cultural rights. It aims at facilitating an environment that enables the development of access and participation in this area. The study also pays due tribute to local civil society organisations and cultural associations, in recognition of the important role they play in making access to culture possible. www.coe.int The Council of Europe has 47 member states, covering virtually the entire continent of Europe. It seeks to develop common democratic and legal principles based on the European Convention on Human Rights and other reference texts on the protection of individuals. Ever since it was founded in 1949, in the aftermath of the Second World War, the Council of Europe has symbolised reconciliation.

  • New Culture Minister Jeremy Wright, Appointed This Week After a Cabinet
    New culture minister urged to digitise export licences for art works: New culture minister Jeremy Wright, appointed this week after a Cabinet reshuffle prompted by the resignation of David Davis and Boris Johnson, is being asked to prioritise the introduction of digital export licences for art works in time for Brexit. Unlike other categories of exports, the export of art, antiques and cultural goods remains a paper-based system, despite requests from art market leaders to speed up the process with a digital alternative. 12.07.2018, Antiques Trade Gazette: New culture minister urged to digitise export licences for art works New culture minister Jeremy Wright, appointed this week after a Cabinet reshuffle prompted by the resignation of David Davis and Boris Johnson, is being asked to prioritise the introduction of digital export licences for art works in time for Brexit. Wright, the former attorney general and a criminal barrister, was unveiled as secretary of state for digital, culture, media and sport (DCMS) to replace Matt Hancock, who moved to become health secretary after just six months heading the DCMS department. Paper-based licences Unlike other categories of exports, the export of art, antiques and cultural goods remains a paper- based system, despite requests from art market leaders to speed up the process with a digital alternative. The pressure to solve the issue has grown with concerns about possible border delays for art and antiques exports to the Continent once the UK leaves the EU in March 2019. “One area affecting the art market that falls in the remit of the DCMS, which is increasingly urgent, is the need for making export licensing digital,” chairman of the British Art Market Federation, Anthony Browne, told ATG.

  • Christians in the Contemporary Middle East: Religious Minorities and the Struggle for Secular Nationalism and Citizenship
    Christians in the Contemporary Middle East: Religious Minorities and the Struggle for Secular Nationalism and Citizenship Villanova University December 5-6, 2016 INTRODUCTION International scholars, government officials, and NGO representatives will convene at Villanova University this December 5-6 for the conference, “Christians in the Contemporary Middle East: Religious Minorities and the Struggle for Secular Nationalism and Citizenship.” The goals of this conference are to examine: (1) The reasons for the decline in pluralistic and cosmopolitan spaces in the Middle East, and the consequences for Christians and other minorities; (2) The historic role of Christian intellectuals and their contributions to Arab politics and promoting religious freedom; (3) Prospects for securing the equality of citizens, given current interpretations of Islamic law that tend to create separation and marginalization, even among Muslim citizens not of the majority sect; (4) Strategies that could be implemented to combat the persecution of minority and religious communities and enable them to stay in their home countries; (5) The geopolitical and regional tensions that have threatened the presence of Christians and other vulnerable communities in the Middle East, and (6) the impact of the Shia-Sunni conflict on the status of ethnic and religious minorities in the region. The conference will conclude with an open discussion with all the panelists and Q&A. 1 | Page SCHEDULE DAY ONE – Monday, December 5, 2016 9:15-9:30 a.m. | Welcome | Rev. Peter M.

Preface Before I begin, I would like to clarify my approach to the subject of French cultural policy. I am not French, nor do I work in cultural administration in any form. I am neither political scientist nor sociologist. What I am is an academic working in the area of French studies, the main object of which is of course France itself. As such, I generally adopt a cultural-historical perspective in my research field, which I define as the contemporary history of French cultural policies, practices and institutions. What my perspective brings to the study of cultural policy, therefore, is a concern not just with administrative and distributive structures but with the importance the arts have been accorded in France for several hundred years. In his paper for this Tribunal, Kevin Mulcahy evokes the French state’s ‘strong sense of cultural mission’ (Tribunal Reader, 1999, 255), while a French writer on the subject, Jean-Michel Djian, starts from the fearlessly unequivocal view that ‘cultural policy is a French invention’ (Djian, 1996, 11).

However, it is only now as its mandate draws to an end that the Committee for the Future has decided to address this subject specifically. The decision was not an easy one. Democracy is a difficult and challenging subject. To provide background for its debate, the Committee commissioned a report from fu- tures researcher Dr Mika Mannermaa. Produced in conjunction with the Committee as part of the Parliament’s centenary anniversary and launched to coincide with the Pori Jazz Festival in summer 2006, first a book with an international focus Democracy and Futures was published (appeared later in Finnish as Demokratian tulevaisuudet).
