🔴INFO LES JOURS. Lors des présidentielles de 2017, le photographe de Marine Le Pen avait été épinglé pour ses positions pro-nazies. «Les Jours» ont retrouvé sa trace chez e-Politic, prestataire historique de l’extrême droite… Le RN il a changé?
Dans l’agence de com préférée du RN, un monteur pronazi et une fille de gudard

Drawing on 37 interviews with Black and Muslim Italians living in Britain or returned to Italy, this article shows that meritocracy is rarely invoked as a coherent ideology but works as practical, embodied common sense about the world order.

Bankfusion er endnu et søm i fagbevægelsens ligkiste
Fagbevægelsens økonomi er i stigende grad afhængig af investeringer frem for medlemmerne. Det risikerer at stille bevægelsen på kapitalens side i stedet for lønmodtagernes.

Similar to its precursor (smart cities), the real money in these speculative projects lies not in any eventual product but in the ecosystem of summits, workshops, and gatherings that circulate the idea and monetize the fiction itself under the pretense of design or planning.
Yet another example of what Michael Lewis has described as “an experiment in capitalism with too much money”. Searching for this kind of ‘spatial fix’ not new, as @quinnslobodian.com describes in Crack-up Capitalism.

La mobilisation semble avoir porté ses fruits : bien qu’aucune communication officielle n’ait eu lieu à ce propos, le sondage problématique sur l’antisémitisme dans l’enseignement supérieur semble abandonné.
Le sondage IFOP sur l’antisémitisme dans l’enseignement supérieur est stoppé
L’enquête commandée par le ministère de l’enseignement supérieur a été discrètement interrompue, vendredi 28 novembre, sans que qui que ce soit revendique la décision d’y avoir mis fin. Un recours devant le Conseil d’Etat a été déposé par plusieurs organisations syndicales, la Ligue des droits de l’homme et six enseignants-chercheurs.
