“…another truth about fortress continents: being on the inside may be better than being locked out, but it's no guarantee of equal status.”
- Naomi Klein.

The existing policies of the Irish govt. to safeguard the rights of migrant workers and their families are "deficient and lacking in scope."
- Human Rights Commission.

The govt. says that the exploitation of migrant workers in Ireland is not a major problem, but this report reveals hidden levels of exploitation at the heart of our economy - including employers who are household names and considered "pillars" of their communities.

IRWIN is an artistic project consisting originally of former Slovenian artistic underground figures. The group adopted the ideology of collectivism in its work - all projects are prepared jointly, the artists do not sign the artworks. Their massive use of the motifs, symbols and styles of the great artistic and political ideologies of the 20th century make their work resemble the Soviet avant garde, the Art of the Third Reich, religious iconography etc. IRWIN is a founding member of the NSK (Neue Slowenische Kunst). read full story / add a comment
