Social identity and the myths and ideologies predominating in the contemporary world are among the subjects explored at this year’s Little Islands Festival, running August 19-22 at Sikinos’ capital, Hora. Themed “Communality,” Okwui Enwezor uses the Hardt and Negri Empire. He invokes the “cosmological” descriptions of the relations of social production which have been released from the mechanism of the nation state and a new type of sovereignty emerges which they give the name “empire”. If we consider that defending our social rights implies moving away from the confinement and dependence of all kinds of markets that are hungry for new resources and new places to devour for the sole benefit of profit, then we have discovered that there is a sick order of things.
