  • CONSPIRACY THEORIES VS EUROPEAN LIBERALS Edited by MIŁOSZ HODUN
    EDITED BY MIŁOSZ HODUN BEYOND FLAT EARTH CONSPIRACY THEORIES VS EUROPEAN LIBERALS BEYOND FLAT EARTH EDITED BY MIŁOSZ HODUN BEYOND FLAT EARTH CONSPIRACY THEORIES VS EUROPEAN LIBERALS People only believe what they already know, and this is the beauty of the Universal Form of Conspiracy. UMBERTO ECO INTRODUCTION by MILOSZ HODUN “The belief in the Homeric gods whose conspiracies explain the history of the Trojan War is gone. The gods are abandoned. But their place is filled by powerful men or groups – sinister pressure groups whose wickedness is responsible for all the evils we suffer from – such as the Learned Elders of Zion, or the monopolists, or the capitalists, or the imperialists” – Karl Popper. A few years ago, Europeans associated conspiracy theories with harmless lunacy. With American pop culture, which was fed stories about aliens from Roswell in New Mexico or Area 51 in Nevada, about the moon landing, which never took place or Elvis, who still lives. Or that Hitler lives... Each spectacular transportation disaster, an accident that happened to a politician or a celebrity, 8 gave rise to stories, which had followers overseas but reached Europe already modified by writers and directors. It was the same in the last few years when theories about flat Earth (entirely con- tradictory to the primary school curriculum) or humanoid reptiles taking control of the world’s most powerful grew in popularity. We watched documentaries about followers of such theories on streaming sites and treated them just like sequels of Borat, like mockumentary comedy too ridiculous to be true. However, conspiracy theories were popular in Europe.

  • The Right Wing Parties Dynamic Between the Economic and the Identity Discourse: Case Study - Belgium
    Journal of Identity and Migration Studies Volume 7, number 1, 2013 The Right Wing Parties Dynamic between the Economic and the Identity Discourse: Case study - Belgium Gabriela GOUDENHOOFT Abstract. Latest developments of the global economic crisis but also the way people use to build their perception on their own identity brought interesting developments in the political sphere. Thus, Belgian right wings parties have amplified the identity discourse. Belgian political crisis is an interesting example in terms of political reconciliation. The problem became so acute that makes discussion on Belgian state dissolution/dividing to be almost trivial. Interrogation on problems like: should regionalization be a priority? Which will be the future of federal state concepts? It is the question about social solidarity or about autonomy and regional development? What kind of news can occur in institutional organization? The problem is not really the way the two communities (Flemish and Walloons) can live together separately in a federation, each speaking its own language, building a separate culture, having own perception of things. The most difficult to manage is the problem of economic redistribution. This and no other disagreements made the issue of the Belgian state segregation to be worthy of discussion. Centrifugal dynamics that happen in Europe lately are signs of rethinking their identity. The idea of confederalism in the case study on Belgium appears to be a possible solution to the crisis problem and generate a new and radical reform of the state. Keywords: centrifugal dynamics, confederalism, identity discourse, economic crisis, political crisis Latest developments of the global economic crisis but also the way people use to build their perception on their own identity brought interesting developments in the political sphere.
