https://goo.gl/aMkRjbIn the second part of our discussion with philosopher and co-founder of the Democracy in Europe Movement (DiEM25), Srećko Horvat, we talk about the importance of introspection as well as social bonds during self-isolation in the time of coronavirus. Furthermore, we examine the clash of socialism and liberalism during this period: whether the measures taken by Western governments are infringing on our civil liberties or are proportionate to combating the crisis.
To view part 1:
In this interview with philosopher and co-founder of the Democracy in Europe Movement (DiEM25), Srećko Horvat, we talk about what we can learn from Julian Assange when it comes to isolation. Julian Assange was forced into isolation in 2012, first in the Ecuadorian embassy where he was forced to seek exile, and thereafter in Belmarsh prison where he now spends most of his time in solitary confinement. Srećko Horvat last visited Julian Assange in Belmarsh in November 2019, and his movement DiEM25 is in direct contact with Julian Assange and his family. In addition,
we examine the recent response of Western governments towards the outbreak of the coronavirus and also provide historical context to how their policies from the last decades have produced the conditions in which it could spread effortlessly.Link to Snowden & Greenwald Playlist:
