"A blueprint for mass deportation, marketed as development."
The new norm ?

"Prospectus proposes forced displacement of entire population and puts territory into US trusteeship.
A plan circulating in the White House to develop the “Gaza Riviera” as a string of high-tech megacities has been dismissed as an “insane” attempt to provide cover for the large-scale ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian territory’s population." >>

"Gaza is becoming ‘graveyard of international humanitarian law’ "
"We have made the Geneva convention[s] almost irrelevant. What is happening and being accepted today in Gaza is not something that can be isolated; it will become the new norm for all future conflicts."

🆕 Contrary to what many might think, it’s not just students who “go on Erasmus” to other countries. An example of this is researcher Arturo Zoffmann, who went to Turkey to spend a month at Sabancı University in Istanbul with the support of the Erasmus+ programme. 🇹🇷

👉 What is he doing there? We'll tell you here: https://ihc.fcsh.unl.pt/arturo-zoffmann-erasmus-istambul/

📰 A SIC Notícias também quis falar com o Arturo Zoffmann sobre o projecto #STEXEU, financiado pelo European Research Council.

A entrevista focou-se na principal hipótese do projecto: o papel que os próprios regimes democráticos podem ter no favorecimento da sua queda e na ascensão do autoritarismo.

📰 O @Publico entrevistou Arturo Zoffmann a propósito da #ERCStG que recebeu do ERC.

Explicou que a hipótese de trabalho do #STEXEU é que "a democracia não foi simplesmente vítima do ataque de movimentos fascistas radicais, mas que as tendências ditatoriais eclodiram no seio do próprio regime liberal, e os estados de excepção impulsionaram poderosamente estas tendências".
