Editorial
Dear friends,
our beautiful
girls, women, sisters, mothers... have had their own day again. Very nice, I hope
you sent congratulations and some present probably. I did. And I am glad about
them. But hm... when the men will start fighting for "men's human rights"
and for the "International Men's Day"? Isn't it a discrimination?
I still don't understand the phrase "female human rights". Ok,
in Serbian it sounds much more nonsence (or stupid) but I thought women are human
beings, too. Must be I was absent during that class... No hard feelings, I respect
this holiday but it becomes boring listening to the same stories and the same
complainings... Anyway, take care, it's Friday 13 again!
Our German
friend and colleague Joachim has just arrived to Belgrade, for his free-lancing
Balkan trip. He told me yesterday evening that WAVE magazine is a great project,
that we have good articles, we are crossing borders, connecting people... And
his conclusion was - you made an excellent product, now you have to find professional
to sell it! He will write an article about our project for his German newspapers,
so if you read it somewhere... Ok, he also mentioned some technical mistakes on
our website... :)
Students are on the road again! We are bringing you the
stories about protests in Denmark, Brazilian high education system and Serbian
students standard. Second part of Serbian way towards European Union is in Politics,
as well as the article about U.S. Secretary of State visit to Japan. We keep writing
on EU issues and this time it is about suspicion over journalists and fear of
spies in European Commission. In Society we also have stories about Belgrade debate
tournament and project Model OSCE 2009. We decided to write about March 8th in
a different way, telling you about problem of violence against women. Our new
Italian correspondent writes about British economics problem. In Culture &
Arts you will find exhibition of Italian comics, for its 100th Birthday, an interview
with choreographer Vera Obradovic and film review of Zone of the Dead. Science
& Tech is about Facebook privacy and fear of bloggers in Italy and Sport is
telling you about biathlon World Championship. Entertainment for the end has a
story about Slovenian music scene.
Enjoy your reading!
