Philosophy Wire: Greece, demonstrations and the (not so mysterious) absence of the intellectual world…

Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2011-06-03]: Billions have been stolen, all pension funds have no longer even 1 euro left, all members of the parliament, people who have publicly admitted that they have been bribed have no consequences…  For years the same things happen and after 9 days of massive demonstrations of thousands of people who pile up and demonstrate, the infamous “intellectual and academic world” has not yet made a statement. Many wonder why this happens… The reason might not be so mysterious… Maybe such a world does not even exist…
