With the largest protest in Serbia behind us, what do we mean by changing the system?

Following the largest student-led protest in Serbia, that took place in Belgrade on March 15, the question about “what’s next” is on the agenda. The fight continues, and with it, discussions about “systemic” change: beyond ethno-nationalist anti-systemic narratives or liberal calls of an expert government, the class conflict, which arises from the concreteness of the student struggle, i.e.: for a (self-organized) society as a political community, should be emphasized.

Point of No Return: An Interview with a Russian Dissident in Exile

As the war in Ukraine continues, Russian citizens face mounting repression at home, forcing many into exile. Among them is a former theater professional, who, for safety reasons, has chosen to remain anonymous. She fled to Serbia after years of activism and aiding political prisoners. Her journey is a stark reminder of how fragile freedoms can be – and a quiet cautionary tale for Serbia, where concerns about shrinking civic space echo the early signs of authoritarianism she once faced in Russia.
