  • On the surface Berlin is a modern city looking to the West whilst reconciling to the past; however beyond the surface, Berlin is pulled in different directions. Still today a fervent movement, mainly in the former East part of the city is resisting to the West and its perceived capitalism. Often this movement is harvested by  squatters  that have occupied premises in the eastern side of the city. A squatted place in Warschauer Strasse.

  • Widows of war in Kosovo.  After the war, some of villages like Meje have no men left.  Many widows have no means of sustainment.  Ngos assisted the widows in rebuilding their homes.  However, the Ngos support has diminuished to null after they have been moved to  Iraq and Afghanistan.  This decision has left the widows in unfinished homes and no one to turn to for any support.

  • Skenderaj in Kosovo is the most destroyed area from the war. The war started in this region and it ended here. It has had the majority of numbers of civilian killings and some villages like Meje have no men left: there are only widows with their children.<br />
Nowadays, the situation of the widows looks even more perilous after international organisations are slowly moved from the Balkans. Some of the widows live in homes that were slowly being rebuilt with the aid of international aid organizations but now left half built. Many of the widows are still homeless. The luckier ones take shelter with relatives but many live in very devastating conditions: in tiny rooms with a little stove, mattress on the floor to sleep and to sit on.

An occupied house in Warschauer Strasse...This movement is very active in many ways from political rallies, demonstrations, revolts against people and governments seen as symbols of capitalistic policies and views.
