Yesterday I had my first interview on NPR, America's number one public radio, on the publication of Revolusi. It was such a joy to talk about Indonesian history. After all, Barack Obama grew up in Jakarta and the work 'ketchup' comes from the Malay 'kecap'!.
Thanks to @arishapiro for that fascinating NPR discussion with @Davidvanrey about REVOLUSI, his "astounding" (Yuval Noah Harari) new book about how Indonesia's fight for independence led to the global decolonization movement. Out from @wwnorton this week.

We Need To Talk, het burgerpanel over partijfinanciering, zit halverwege. Zullen burgers op 6 dagen tijd slagen waar de partijen al 15 jaar hun tanden op stuk bijten?.
De burgers komen dit weekend voor de tweede keer bijeen 💬 Op de agenda: een belangrijke bijeenkomst met de partijvoorzitters die hun standpunt over de partijfinanciering komen verdedigen.

'Revolusi' is about to be published in Italian and La Repubblica generously gave me three pages of its magazine to talk about the colonialism of the past and the future. Thank you so much. ''All roads lead to Jakarta".
Antioccidentalismo, dialogo globale, mondo multipolare, colonizzazione del futuro. Oggi su @ilvenerdi una mia conversazione con l'intellettuale belga David Van Reybrouck sulle radici di un mondo che oggi vediamo fiorire sempre più in fretta. #revolusi @feltrinellied @Davidvanrey

While a French Citizens' Assembly just proposed new legislation on euthanasia, an Irish Citizens' Assembly asks for a constitutional referendum on biodiversity. These are big steps forward!.

Hoofdredactioneel commentaar van Le Monde: "De ernst van de werkzaamheden van de burgerconventie over het levenseinde lijkt aan te tonen dat het mogelijk is de wedloop naar pittige polemieken en polariserende argumenten te vermijden.".

Terwijl Frankrijk brandt over de pensioenen, was er een buitengewoon sereen burgerberaad mogelijk over euthanasie. De aanbevelingen liggen nu op tafel en oogsten veel waardering.
