Di Gian Paolo Ormezzano, giornalista scomparso oggi, ricordo questo articolo-denuncia sulle violenze perpetrate dalle forze di polizia ai danni dei manifestanti (incluso suo figlio) durante il G8 di Genova del 2001. Un pezzo terribile che ci interroga ancora oggi. /1 t.co/CLqUY71ajr

Finito "Bambino", romanzo di Marco di Balzano. Un'altra storia di confini e identità, come "Resto qui". La stessa ottima scrittura ma più cruda, spregiudicata e inafferrabile, come il protagonista. Unica certezza: il male genera solo altro male. Devo ancora metabolizzarlo ma già lo consiglio.

Da cui si evince che abbiamo affidato i trasporti nazionali a uno che non sa leggere una pagella di 5° elementare. Cosa potrebbe andare storto.

Most contemporary discussions of markets vs planning are too stark and simplistic. To think seriously for the future, we need a richer and more nuanced approach. Angus Hebenton & I make a start here: engaging with the unduly neglected work of Meade, Holland, and Wootton. ejpe.org/journal

The conservative Berlin government is bringing devastating cuts to transport, culture, and education. By slashing essential services, they're sabotaging the future of our city. Who do we have to thank for this? The car-centric suburbs.

Last Friday my seminar on the American press and the Holocaust 1933-1945 came to a close. It was a group of 16 very engaged students. They all agreed that doing their own research in digitised newspaper archives was the best part of the class. Mission accomplished 😀
