A “New Manifesto” for Global Change! The movement against “Capital=Nation=State” has become more realistic after 3/11 and in the face of the Corona disaster. The “NAM” as a movement has been summed up to become the “New Associationist Movement” as a general noun, declaring a new potential of association for the transformation of the world in the 21st century!
There was a rather new book out.

I heard that during the Sunflower Student Movement in Taiwan in 2004, your books were often read among the activists. Especially “Talking about Politics”. According to Jiang Hui (a professor at Tsinghua University) in China, I had the reputation of being the mastermind of the movement in Taiwan, and his students whom I taught at Tsinghua University were happy to hear it. I was also interviewed by a Shanghai magazine about it. However, I am not involved in the Taiwanese movement at all. At that time I gave four talks, one of which was on the Japanese student movement. I wasn’t planning to do that at first, but when I went to Taiwan, I was asked about the possibility of a “student movement” in interviews, etc., which made me think a bit. I thought to myself, come to think of it, there is no “student movement” in Japan today. There are student movements in Taiwan and in South Korea. And a certain amount of respect is given to student movements. Japan used to have that too, but not anymore. Why is that? The reason is not that students used to be a small elite, but that is no longer the case. Above all, the leftist movement has destroyed it. - Sunflower Student Movement の思想的源流に Yukito Emaya がいた、知らなかった
