Vor dem Gipfeltreffen: Auf Irrwegen zum Frieden
Seit Russland Krieg gegen die Ukraine führt, gibt es Vermittlungen für einen Frieden. Eine Rekonstruktion, weshalb sie häufig bereits in der Anlage scheiterten.

Some of the many graffiti murals seen around the UK since the Grenfell Tower fire on the 14th of June 2017, which killed at least 72 residents of the social housing block.
The blaze was the direct result of decisions made by developers and politicians, from the fact that highly flammable cladding was added to make the building look more attractive to rich people in nearby luxury tower blocks, to the fact that Tory politicians had voted down a bill to require landlords to ensure that the properties they rented out were “fit for human habitation”, to the fact that local Tory councillors had deliberately chosen a more fire-prone cladding to save money – the same local government that forced Grenfell survivors to bid against each other for new homes and then paid the same company that installed the flammable cladding to replace it.

On this day, 16 June 1531, English king Henry VIII modified the vagrancy laws he brought in the previous year, which were key in creating the working class. People kicked off communal land who were not in wage labour were designated as vagabonds, and on their first offence were to be whipped, then on the second whipped with half an ear sliced off and upon a third offence they were to be executed. This and similar laws enacted across Europe, backed up by intense state violence, created a class of people forced to sell their labour to survive: the working class. Karl Marx described these legal mechanisms in volume 1 of his work, Capital: "Thus were the agricultural people, first forcibly expropriated from the soil, driven from their homes, turned into vagabonds, and then whipped, branded, tortured by laws grotesquely terrible, into the discipline necessary for the wage system." This expropriation was extended across the globe by violent colonialism. Rather than being a natural state of affairs as it is often portrayed, the creation of the working class was fiercely resisted for hundreds of years, and indeed still is to this day in some areas.
