Working on a br oad range of civil liberties issues, Statewatch has gained a reputationfor accuracy and originality. Ten years since Statewatch was formed and seven years since the groundbreaking "Statewatching the new Europe" conference raised concerns about the emerging European state, Statewatch is bringing together speakers from across Europe to explore the links between the state and its agencies in the context of globalisation. The conference will look at decision-making structures, new technologies of control, migration and racism, secrecy and accountability. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Celebrating "10 years of Statewatch 1991-2001" Statewatch, PO Box 1516, London N16 0EW, UK tel 00 44 (0)20 8802 1882 fax 00 44 (0)20 8880 1727 e-mail: office@statewatch.org www.statewatch.org -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by Harkank published on: 2001-06-29 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
