An introduction

This is a semi-public place to dump text too flimsy to even become a blog post. I wouldn't recommend reading it unless you have a lot of time to waste. You'd be better off at my livejournal. I also have another blog, and write most of the French journal summaries at the Eurozine Review.

Why do I clutter up the internet with this stuff at all? Mainly because I'm trying to get into the habit of displaying as much as possible of what I'm doing in public. Also, Blogger is a decent interface for a notebook

me dicen el clandestino / por no llevar papel

Ulrich Beck is writing a monthly column on 'Weltinnenpolitik' for the Franfurter Rundschau. His first piece is devoted to the political demands of sans-papiers. It's not a bad introduction to the issue, which apparently hasn't really come to the fore in Germany. Particularly, the extent to which entire industries and cultures depend on illegal workers.
