It is not very clear how these protests are generated \u2013 they began as the sole protest against the <a href=\"http:\/\/rs.n1info.com\/English\/NEWS\/a438363\/Serbian-opposition-leader-brutally-beaten.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">brutal beating<\/a> of Borko Stefanovi\u0107 (the founder of the political party Levica Srbije), but it seems that the response of the citizens was far greater than what organizers had hoped and it is lasting far longer than the opposition had the capacity to absorb. The general impression is that the opposition is not able to consciously plan and bring together the amount of people who turn up at the protest every Saturday. Among other things, the opposition is now also incompetent and unable to articulate the dissatisfaction of a large number of citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, it seems that the only truly precise answer to this question is: protests have generated themselves, they are an expression of authentic dissatisfaction which may be difficult to articulate, but which is not difficult to identify (and this takes us back to the list at the beginning \u2013 it is easy to say that a whole series of problems exist, but it is difficult to complete the list, it is impossible to count everything and it is almost impossible to cover everything with one single requirement: the dominant political and economic ideology is designed exactly like this \u2013 it cannot be encompassed). The protests began a few weeks ago; at first the initiative came from the opposition bloc around the Alliance for Serbia, and it is more or less still formally behind it, but probably only because now it would be a really silly move to stop pretending it is behind them. However, it is clear that the protests are not actually under the control of the opposition. This is even more inconvenient because the standard opposition parties (and especially the ideological and party scene of the Alliance for Serbia) do not know how to adequately absorb such authentic expressions of dissatisfaction on the part of the citizens.<\/p>\n<p>The surprise caused by a completely unexpected number of citizens taking part in the announced rallies escalated on the occasion of the second one, when opposition leaders announced that the next one would be held on January 16. Soon they realised that this is not how the situation with protests was going to unfold. They changed their mind, agreed with the public opinion, and agreed to continue with the protest\u2019s flow. However, when something becomes history, it is hard to go back: not knowing what to do and how to continue, opposition leaders have used the implicit demand for the depoliticisation of resistance to hide behind it.<\/p>\n<p>Precisely because opposition leaders go with the flow rather than the flow going with them, and because of the above-mentioned inability to absorb an authentic political language, they very soon began regulating and disciplining the protest, returning it to the mainstream, and again shifting it back to the existing order.<\/p>\n<p>The dangerous tendencies of this series of protests can be seen against a specific internal discipline of protest: during the first protest, the main scandal was the cancellation of the speech by actress Mirjana Karanovi\u0107 and coach Dule Vujo\u0161evi\u0107, already announced in the program. Once again, the shadow of Ko\u0161tunica (a former Serbian politician, former President of Yugoslavia from 2000 to 2003, and Prime Minister of Serbia for two terms) and of Serbian patriotism can be felt, and it seems that Dveri (a far-right political movement and a member of Alliance for Serbia), once a rather marginal subject, has quite successfully been transformed into so-called \u201cpacemaker\u201d of the opposition\u2019s activities. To be frank, it was expected that the Democratic Party, with all its history of mingling with the nation and privatisation, would end up in the pact with nationalists such as Dveri.<\/p>\n<p>The implementation of this so-called \u201cdiscipline\u201d was not limited to satisfying big names and their sensitive patriotic taste: already during the third meeting, an unofficial organizing committee rejected the request of the citizens\u2019 initiative \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/zakrovnadglavom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Krov nad glavom<\/a>\u201d to distribute their leaflets during the protest. Therefore, there might be no place for Mirjana Karanovi\u0107, but neither is there a place for the alternative to the quasi-articulated politics of the nation and market competition.<\/p>\n<p>This, however, has been the situation for the past thirty years, indeed this state was built as a defensive rampart for those who have benefited from the wars of the nineties: a trend established in the early nineties dictated by reactionary political forces continues today \u2013 and the opposition, of course, could not think of anything smarter and better to do than to play according to the rules of the party that succeeded (by the way: this is the true strength of the SNS \u2013 the current governing party) in sublimating and appropriating all the reactionary garbage from the beginning of the nineties on which today temporary coalitions are formed, thanks to shady friendship connections turned into political-economic empires. In the end, this is what happens when you try to deliver your hopes for alternatives in the form that is already used by the party you are fighting against and which is, at the moment, the dominant one.<\/p>\n<p>In short: there may be no explicit messages and requests, but there is an implicit language, ideological formatting, and unspoken messages. When there is no articulation of speech that can be read or heard from the stage, then one just listens to music. Thus, the same playlist that was played during the opposition protests in the 1990s was played again at the recent protests: <em>\u0110or\u0111e Bala\u0161evi\u0107, Rimtutituki, Par godina za nas, Sve\u010dane bele ko\u0161ulje<\/em>. Not one step forward in thirty years, no millimetre gained from the old positions, and the organizers (somebody must have chosen that music), still imagine resistance against authorities as some kind of a middle age crisis, a way of going back to youthful force and mythical youth: Crni Bombarder against the red band, Dragan Bjelogrli\u0107 against Petar Bo\u017eovi\u0107.<\/p>\n<p>But let\u2019s analyse the situation starting from the other side: precisely because regulation is needed, there is the potential for the political problems to be articulated differently. However, problems must not be allowed to be articulated in any other way. This can be explained with one single tweet. Former Serbian president Boris Tadi\u0107 noted on Twitter that events have far more political weight \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/world\/2018\/dec\/31\/bosnian-serb-protests-grow-amid-anger-over-mysterious-death-of-student\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the murder of David Dragicevi\u0107<\/a> in Banja Luka, months of protests in the Republika Srpska and are, ultimately, connected with recent undefined chaos taking place \u2013 which is disastrous for the credibility of the Republika Srpska (sic!). Therefore, the same old (old, wrong and cowardly) priorities, once again we hear the refrain \u201cdo not spoil our image in the world,\u201d and not one step forward towards the question \u201cwhat is the image of politics?\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The death of David Dragi\u010devi\u0107 has a different political weight because it reflects the amount of arrogance of the political elites and the politics of fear as a central mechanism: we can kidnap you, kill you, leave you in the gutter and get away with it. Here\u2019s one thing the opposition should remember: such a level of arrogance, dismemberment of institutions and societies simply cannot go unpunished, and so the opposition might consider the proposed framework for the criminal punishment of the political elite that is in power in Serbia today.<\/p>\n<p>Also, let\u2019s take a look at one final figure in these protests: Barbara \u017divoti\u0107 \u2013 who continues to be the subject of numerous jokes, online and live. Barbara is a hated figure, something like a \u201ctrue personification of this regime\u201d: not very bright, an amateur, who occupies a position without proper qualifications. Those jokes, however, miss one thing: Barbara is a personification of existentially unsecured youth, anxiously thirsty for miserable symbols of wealth. She gave up her work for those symbols, she found a market niche, and she\u2019s doing everything that she\u2019s being told to do. So let\u2019s perform a mental experiment and ask for Barbara\u2019s emancipation from existential needs, and for a start demand her economic independence, and let\u2019s see what she has to say and what she thinks; let\u2019s demand economic freedom of journalists and then see what they report; let\u2019s demand freedom from the hierarchical relationship between capital owners and workers \u2013 and from there let\u2019s start building politics. Once freed from existential needs, perhaps citizens will have something else to demand, and when freed from the burden of economic and international imperatives \u2013 perhaps politics can actually be different.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\">Translation from Serbian:\u00a0Hana Grgi\u0107 and Emma Catherine Gainsforth<\/p>\n<p><em>This piece was<a href=\"https:\/\/www.masina.rs\/?p=8233\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> originally published<\/a> in Serbian at Ma\u0161ina.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The translation was first published by\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/politicalcritique.org\/cee\/2019\/protests-in-belgrade\/\">Political Critique<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> &#8230; <a title=\"Protests in Belgrade \u2013 an endless series of frustrations\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.masina.rs\/eng\/protests-belgrade-endless-series-frustrations\/\" aria-label=\"Read more about Protests in Belgrade \u2013 an endless series of frustrations\">READ<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":596,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[18],"form":[],"concept":[],"contents":[],"coauthors":[16],"class_list":["post-595","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-protest","infinite-scroll-item","generate-columns","tablet-grid-50","mobile-grid-100","grid-parent","grid-25"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Protests in Belgrade \u2013 an endless series of frustrations - Ma\u0161ina English<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.masina.rs\/eng\/protests-belgrade-endless-series-frustrations\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Protests in Belgrade \u2013 an endless series of frustrations - Ma\u0161ina English\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"...
