Alicja Gescinska heeft aan den lijve ervaren wat gebrek aan vrijheid is. Ooit woonde zij met haar ouders en zussen in een studio van vier bij vier in communistisch Polen. Vlak voor de Val van de Muur vluchtte het gezin naar België; Alicja was toen zeven jaar oud. Als tiener kon zij moeilijk aarden in het Westen, waar de toegenomen vrijheid niet meteen een garantie bleek voor een beter bestaan. Vrijheid scheen haar eerder een ander woord voor luiheid, gemakzucht, consumentisme. Pas met de ontdekking van wijsbegeerte en literatuur vond zij naar eigen zeggen de ware, positieve zin van de vrijheid.

The present ecological mutation has organized the whole political landscape for the last thirty years. This could explain the deadly cocktail of exploding inequalities, massive deregulation, and conversion of the dream of globalization into a nightmare for most people. What holds these three phenomena together is the conviction, shared by some powerful people, that the ecological threat is real and that the only way for them to survive is to abandon any pretense at sharing a common future with the rest of the world. Hence their flight offshore and their massive investment in climate change denial.The Left has been slow to turn its attention to this new situation. It is still organized along an axis that goes from investment in local values to the hope of globalization and just at the time when, everywhere, people dissatisfied with the ideal of modernity are turning back to the protection of national or even ethnic borders.This is why it is urgent to shift sideways and to define politics as what leads toward the Earth and not toward the global or the national. Belonging to a territory is the phenomenon most in need of rethinking and careful redescription; learning new ways to inhabit the Earth is our biggest challenge. Bringing us down to earth is the task of politics today. (Provided by publisher)
