Sorry for any cross posting...

The small person in front of the flashing billboards.

Jasna Frangovska interviews Senka Anastasova Dr of Philosophy from the 
Sts. Cyril and Methodius University from Skopje of the Republic of 
Macedonia, about the strange feeling of the New Year under the dark 
shadow of the economic crash. Right before the most commercialised of 
all holidays, written whilst facing the year in which the world 
recession has gripped the Western hemisphere officially knock on our 
doors. The holidays represent a glamorous festivity of the consumer 
society that we all live in – culturally, economically and politically.
