Being active in the dutch green-left party Groenlinks... what's that?

Thursday, June 22, 2006

Sittiing in De Balie, in a break in the comference Op zoek naar de allochtoon, I am charmed by this statement of Jan Tillie: 
 
The right wing set in the integration agenda the social cultural
question, and the left answered in this frame, instead of giving
emphasize on its traditional socio economical framework.


This opinion is based in research done on election programs. 

And I am more charmed even by the work out of this statement:

The writer of the program keeps on thinking about which politiek bedrijk must be followed, instead of hear what the allochtoon considers a problem. Not many allos are wondering about their identity and their culture. They are wondering about the hardening of their economical situation, among other reasons due to discrimination in the labor market. But this remains unadressed in election programs. 

Wow. I suppose that this should be a real take home message.
