No.21 July 2008 Editorial
Dear friends, summer has
come to Europe and the rest of Northern part of the world. And it becomes quite
hot on political and economics scene globally. Prices of food and fuel are rising
and G-8 summit in Japan didn't bring any revolutionary decision. EU has its problems,
too. At least sport brings some happiness to its fans, many championships are
playing right now and we are all looking forward to Olympics in Beijing. Wave
magazine sends you the best wishes and hopes you will spend summer at the seaside,
or wherever you feel good.
We are keeping our promises and Serbian edition
is ready to start from this issue. Of course, it's still a beginning, so give
us some time to make it perfect. No.21 will be available in few days and then
you will be able to read our magazine in two different languages. The idea is
to make it more localized in next months, means most of the articles will be translated
from the main, international edition, but there will be some differences, too.
We
decided to tell you more about the hot topic of neonazism, as it became really
actual with discovering some nazi war criminals, accused but still enjoying their
freedom. Irish referendum on Lisbon Treaty just made European Union to keep on
discussing the future of the Old Continent, and Swedish authorities decided to
allow some Big Brother methods protecting its citizens. International Press Institute
held its congress in Belgrade with very interesting debates on journalism, and
the organizers of European Youth Week in Novi Sad are very busy preparing their
festival in August. One more hot topic comes from Turkey, about banning the rulling
party and question of headscarves. Starting from July, we are researching on the
future of Serbian scene and artistic schools. And Bill Gates retired leaving Microsoft
to think about its future. Read about neuromarketing if you always wondered why
do you buy something. Wimbledon has its new champion and Euro 2008 brought us
new football idols. Enjoy your reading! Marko
