Beautiful endorsement by one of Indonesia's leading intellectuals: "Finally the book "Revolusi" by David van Reybrouck @Davidvanrey was published in English. For this book he conducted research for 4 years, interviewed around 200 witnesses and used hundreds of primary sources."

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'!
Matt Weiland@MattWeiland10 Apr 2024
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?

'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".

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." lemonde.fr/idees/article/202


Fin de vie : gouvernement et parlementaires doivent respecter le débat éclairé

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.

A breakthrough for #sortition as @lemondefr salutes the "serious work" of France's latest randomly selected citizens' assembly on the end of life and calls for more subjects to be tackled with such "collective intelligence" and "enlightened debate". lemonde.fr/idees/article/202

President @EmmanuelMacron officialized the institutionalization of #citizensassemblies in France by announcing a 3rd one for the fall on a TBD topic (guesses are #immigration or #democraticrenewal) & a bill on #endoflife by the end of summer. #deliberativedemocracy
