Schedule European Summer University 2022

Especially in difficult times, social movements need a special, peaceful weapon: satire and humour, especially in our actions. We will inspire ourselves with examples from different countries and develop new ideas. Because: Capitalism is the most ridiculous economic system in the world!

Especially in difficult times, social movements need a special, peaceful weapon: satire and humour, especially in our actions.

In the first part (c.a. 45 - 60 minutes) we would like to look at and listen to various successful examples of satire in action (as well as on the Internet and at events). Participants are welcome to bring in their own examples (clips, videos, photos; maximum three minutes long). This is best done in advance, but it is also possible during the event.
And then we want to talk about which ideas work and why, where the problems are and how we can come up with new ideas.
Ideally, concrete new ideas for action will emerge in our format and we will be inspired by examples from other countries.
At Attac in Germany we have often tried out such forms and gained a lot of experience. For example, at the 2016 German Summer Academy in Düsseldorf, we delivered neoliberalism in a satirical art performance to the museum.
