.an american in slovenia. first time on the east.
SASKIA SASSEN
CD-LJ-13-10-2002


whatever that means:


intro:
::migration is a story of predjudices
::at one point we talk about arrival of guests at the other about intrusion of foreigners
::migration is not new social phenomena/appaerance


::art is daring and visionary
::art voice is in the oposition of the voice of voters


::primarly questions
+what immigration labels/when we use the term
+who are all the actors in the thing we call immigration


we are talking about complex dinamic and we can witness a sort of crossborder loop, whereas the case begins in washington and/or in new yorks corporation centres.

when someone enters we are the actors / reactors – the discurse involves us ourselves.

and it is not the immigrants who are producing the state of immigration, the point is we have to draw the whole landscape of immmigration ‚factors‘.

for example slovenia will/can become sort of patrolling country cause it will be on the edge.
thus the problem will be focused and concentrated in slovenia. instead of this there should be the whole institutional map that would regulate the whole thing as the subject of european policy.

immigrants go to country where the sort of bridge was build. one of the bridges is historical colonization for example. geography is often overridden.

than you have the american that are capable to say, one example from the eighties when the new york city was in total degradation (criminal, homeless, annihilated and expensive city infrastructure...) while the stock
on a new york market was flying.
‚why aren’t you reach if you are so smart?‘
and the only adequate reply would be:
‚why aren’t you smart if you are so reach?‘

two particular aspects:
::civil society rule of laws - human rights.

important is to have strong civil society
[we - u.s. is far less civilized]

.illegal death bodies.

‘cancer in our rules of law -> by the time you discover it its often annihilting.’

1996 : usa : more authority to police : we can abuse our civil rights but we can’t abuse civil rights of the others

luxembourgh = more than 10% of the entire population are immigrants / undocummneted immigrants/persons / illegal traffic is huge buisness/ cia www.cia you find the data – exact research and numbers that are mapping the traffic - organizations entry points

why traffic has grown/ im – international monitoring/15 years now we know/ illegal traffic buisness is growing / there is no job / grey zone / making money goverment/

the map of actors is huge / international economic and dynamic system as florian scneider: if the money can freely move why than the people can’t? /

we are crminalizing asylum, militirizing the crowd and raising the police component / 4 my friends everything 4 my enemies law / what are the bridges that allow to enter the law?

:microhistories: repeatin’ but still the question is what strategic point do women have?

.shadows of 17th and 18th century.

q&a
lot of established knowledge has to be problematize/citizen have to push representators to learn – to do their homework/ we have to bring them the way but its also not their interest/ we have to learn about global finance/ us goverment treats us as children / strategic agents / prostitutes / last decade of the nineties is dark age – a gap / no formal system of power has not lasted 4ever. and no formal system of power has really gone down! /
