drive by links (political)

[ariadnes_string]

Still incredibly saddened and disturbed by the violence in the UK over the past few days, though things seem to have been quieter last night. A few editorial pieces, if you're interested (my own politics showing here, I'm afraid).

Zygmunt Bauman, "On consumerism coming home to roost" (from Social Europe)

Cameron's broken windows (from the NYTimes)

Hoping everyone and their loved ones have come things safely.
