»Rosa Luxemburg goes Europe« was the slogan under which the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation launched the project of establishing a Brussels office in 2008. Brussels is not only the centre of European politics, but also a significant centre of world politics, particularly with regard to north-south policy. Brussels is also the headquarters of NATO. There are thus many political divides that run through Brussels, many of which may not always be completely visible at first sight. These different fields of action are what determines the strategic orientation of our Brussels Office.Events

The Brussels Crisis and the Politics of Decline: Lecture with Anton Jäger
For over five hundred days, the Brussels region — home to the EU institutions — has been without a government. Beyond its local context, the crisis reflects the broader contradictions of the 2020s: European remilitarization, industrial decline, rightward electoral shifts, and downward budgetary pressure towards urban enclaves from EU institutions. In this lecture held by the Rosa Luxemburg Foundation's Brussels Office, prominent theorist and historian Anton Jäger explores politics in Europe and left-wing strategies for this impasse, beyond the "hyperpolitical"’ reflexes in vogue in recent years.
