I had a nice short conversation with prof. Robert Hewison. I asked him about his yesterday's welcome speech, the "anti-bureaucratic" one. And I was right, he confirmed my thought that he wanted to express some critic concerning the bureaucracy behind culture. Prof. Hewison also resembled the confronation of discourses that is running in Europe; the professional "Westerns" against (but obviously it doesn't mean "in a fierce conflict") the "Easterns" or "the New Ones". He believes in dialogue conducted through coherent actions. He doesn't support the tendency to talk about particular levels of what we call "culture", focusing on "heritage", "dialogue", "communication" etc. Culture is one (?)
He also said that: "Dialogue is dialectic".
I will come back to this phrase later...
