  • The Criminalisation of Squatting Discourses, Moral Panics and Resistances in the Netherlands and England and Wales
    6258 MORAL RHETORIC-A_234x156 mm 30/06/2014 13:17 Page 109 Chapter 5 The criminalisation of squatting Discourses, moral panics and resistances in the Netherlands and England and Wales Deanna Dadusc and ETC Dee What is philosophy if not a way of reflecting, not so much on what is true and what is false, as on our relationship to truth? . The movement by which, not without effort and uncertainty, dreams and illusions, one detaches oneself from what is accepted as true and seeks other rules – that is philosophy. The displacement and transformation of frameworks of thinking . to become other than what one is – that too, is philosophy.1 In both England and Wales and the Netherlands, squatting has recently been legislated against.2 In most European countries squatting is illegal and considered either a crime against public order or a violation of private property rights. In England and Wales, the act of squatting in residential buildings was criminalised on 1 September 2012 and is punishable by a sentence of up PROOFS3 to 51 weeks in prison and/or a fine of up to £5,000. In the Netherlands, the act of squatting was made illegal by a new criminal law of 1 October 2010, punishable by up to two years in prison (or a fine).4 These countries have had a history of civil regulation in regard to squatting, yet the use of criminal law is recent. In the Netherlands, the first formulation of the new law was vague and is being modified by means of legal battles between the state and squatters.

Last week, I hosted an event with Invest Northern Wednesday 5 December 2012 Ireland to give young people the skills that they need to get into employment. Does the Minister agree that The House met at half-past Eleven o’clock young people who are unemployed and marginalised, particularly those in areas of deprivation, can fall prey to unacceptable activity?

  • The Criminalisation of Squatting: Discourses, Moral Panics and Resistances in the Netherlands, England and Wales
    'Vulnerable demons'? Moral rhetoric and the criminalisation of squatting Dadusc, Deanna and Dee, E.T.C. The criminalisation of squatting: Discourses, moral panics and resistances in the Netherlands, England and Wales. Abstract: In both England and the Netherlands, squatting has recently been legislated against. Criminalisation is often understood as a top-down process, where those who are criminalised are seen as passive actors without political agency. Understanding squatters as political activists, rather than merely victims of the social and economic system, puts a different light on the theoretical and practical implications related to criminalisation. Indeed criminalisation is a complex process that involves a multiplicity of actors, interests, and discourses. On the one hand it produces new norms and meanings aimed at shaping squatters' conducts. On the other hand, it sees the emergence of alternative practices and discourses. The aim of this paper is the understanding of the complex relation between criminalisation and its resistance, and of how discourses of criminalisation and practices of resistance mutually influence each other. We will examine the contestation of the meaning of squatting, the role of the media in constructing moral panics toward squatting, and the alternative discourses used to counter criminalisation, both in England and in the Netherlands. In particular, we will explore the discourses mobilised by right- wing politicians and opponents of squatting to criminalise it, and the discourses utilised by squatters and their supporters to defend it. Words: 10200 What is philosophy if not a way of reflecting, not so much on what is true and what is false, as on our relationship to truth?( ...) The movement by which, not without effort and uncertainty, dreams and illusions, one detaches oneself from what is accepted as true and seeks other rules - that is philosophy.
