Review of Russian Opposition Culture ROAR #2
Introducing another - second - issue of ROAR or Review of Russian Opposition Culture. The main theme of the magazine is opposition to violence, this systemic, linguistic, symbolic violence.
Linor Goralik, editor and initiator of ROAR, writes: "The terrible space of violence and pain in which the Ukrainian people now function was not created by the current Russian power and its advocates overnight: violence is a tool of this power in all its manifestations. Violence is the primary mechanism of any institution, associated with this power, in solving any problem that encounters resistance, opposition, protest or even the elementary manifestation of individual will - this institution can be the FSB, but also a neuropsychiatric hospital, a court or a school."
