Farwell to the rule of law. The model of power sharing in the Basic Law of 2011

In the past 20 years we were living in a bourgeois democratic state governed by the rule of law – with a constitution missing the term of power sharing. Nevertheless, the Basic Law that comes into force on January 1, 2010 mentions it but the power of the "new majority" in fact is and will not be relevantly limited. How is it possible? The constitutional lawyer and politologist author gives accurate answers.

Manifesto of the Network of Alternative Resistance (1999)

Groups in Western Europe and Latin America published a political program in Buenos Aires, September 1999 to create a worldwide counter power of non-government actors. This alternative called libertarian communism is based on changing lifestyle. It is a solidarity op-position – to the bourgeois system – which is the rejection and overcoming of the standardisation of individuals, their consolidation, separation and isolation.

“Cool” Capitalism. The Great Refusal

The critique of canonised literature is well known but canonised painting is watched with less sharp critique of its system. The author attempts this as he fits bohe-mianism in the bourgeois culture with a historic angle, and tries to come up with politically unbiased answers how Picasso, Rivera and Kahlo looked at the Stalinist system. He also investigates how the critique of the system could be detected that time and can be now in paintings.
