It was the youth who initiated these revolutions and movements. Subcontinent and Pakistan have a rich history of the revolutionary role played by the youth. As the "best barometer of society", the revolutionary youth of Pakistan have realized the need to join hands in their common struggle against oppression, unemployment, fundamentalism, discrimination, costly education and capitalism.

Den cubanske forfatter Leonardo Padura besøgte 20-22. september Danmark, i anledning af at hans bog Manden, der elskede hunde, netop er blevet udgivet på dansk. Du kan læse en anmeldelse af bogen her, men vi kan her afsløre, at bogen varmt kan anbefales; det er en fantastisk roman, som det er svært at lægge fra sig trods sine mere end 700 sider.
