The countdown has begun. The European Social Forum kicks off on September 17 at Malmö, Sweden, where more than 20 thousand participants from across the continent (and the globe) will meet with one clear thought in mind: another Europe is possible.
The forum, by far the biggest meeting place for social movements and progressive civil society in Europe, will, during the course of the five days hold more than 200 seminars and workshops which will be mixed with even more culture, film, music, informal meetings, activism and demonstrations. This year many trade unions will be in the forum.

I was talking with a friend of mine from Berlin. He said, "I become happy when I come to Turkey. There is excitement and chaos here. For instance, we don't know the names of any generals in Germany. Here, your spirit is being shaped according to every new general. Frankly, I envy you."
Apples on the other side of the wall are the sweetest! This is my friend's way of thinking, but I am thinking differently. I think we are not making any progress. We keep repeating the same old. For instance, the closure case filed against the pro-Kurdish Democratic Society Party, or DTP. If you ask me how many similar cases have been filed so far, I cannot give you a correct answer. All the parties formed by the Kurdish movement were shut down in the 1990s. Closure cases against political parties seem ordinary, routine developments.
