Bitxikeria: International Bodyboard Asociation (IBA) erakundeko munduko tour-ean 10. postuan kokatuta dago Alex Uranga zumaiarra. Kirolari gaztea da oso, eta bere alorrean arrakastatsua, zalantzarik gabe. Joan den astean, Australiako Riptide Magazine ospetsuak elkarrizketa egin zion. Hona hemen euskaldun batek Australian zabaldutako mezua:
- Riptide: “How hard has Basque Country been affected by the economic difficulties in Europe? Have you, family or friends been affected by it greatly? How?”
- Alex Uranga: “At the moment it’s really heavy. It’s been about four years since the crisis started. It affects all sectors and I have friends that have been really affected. The craziest thing is that the government tries to hide the facts, lying and talking shit… all the politicians need to say what the real situation about what families and young people are going through. There’s no work, no money for studying… they’re bastards (…)”.

Politikariei ondo etorriko zaie kaleko jendearen iritziak jasotzea, noski. Euskal Herritik kanpotik badatoz, ziur hobeto. Oraingo honetan, Australiatik bertatik. Eta modu oso gordinean gainera.
Eta bitartean: irtenbiderik ote? aldaketa sakonerako proposamenik bai? eta hezkuntza alorrean? unibertsitate mailan berrikuntza esanguratsurik proposatu al da?

Thanks Alex, for the pleasure of reading your words about the crisis in our Basque Country.
If you have Australian friends, and if they want to understand something about the induced crisis (http://www.economonitor.com/lrwray/2013/09/18/five-years-after-lehmans-did-we-learn-anything/) we all are in, here you have a good Australian economist: Bill Mitchell.
Mitchell is one of the few economists who have developed the so-called Modern Monetary Theory, together with Randall Wray and Warren Mosler.

Aldaketa sakonik hezkuntzan? hona hemen Iratxe Esnaola Deustu Unibertsitateko irakasleak eta UEUko Talde Eragileko kideak emandako hitzaldia: “Ikasteko Ingurune Birtualak: erronka teknologikotik erronka pedagogikora”. Ikus http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w5vR31TsyHk.
