The lives of the citizens of the Soviet bloc countries were largely determined by imposed isolation from the rapidly modernising democratic Western world and radical restrictions on the free circulation of cultural goods and other commodities, as well as foreign travel.

L’usage de gaz lacrymogènes, les tirs de LBD, pour ne rien dire des charges et des nassages, témoignent de l’actualité des violences policières, que prolonge parfois la répression judiciaire. Le constat interroge dans un pays démocratique, où la violence n’est légitime que dans un cadre strictement réglementé.

As chains of wealth became global in the world economy (Seabroke&Wigan, 2022), so did tax strategies. These topics have gained increasing attention over the past fifteen years as the crisis of 2007/2008 renewed the discussion on inequalities and (fiscal) justice.
