Figures & Tables

Figure 1

Initially, Eurodusnie acted from the squatted school building at the Boerhaavelaan, Leiden (shown on the photo). Later, the collective also squatted a cultural centre in Leiden’s city centre at the Koppenhinksteeg. “Eurodusnie intern,” Dusnieuws 19 (February 2000).

Figure 2

Poster Eurodusnie, “De Euro wordt van ons allemaal” (2001). Eurodusnie activists soon discovered that spectacular actions or images could garner media attention. The printing and distribution of a poster that showed Hitler in front of the slogan ‘Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Euro’ was one example of the collective’s provocative media strategy. Collection International Institute of Social History, https://resolver.kb.nl/resolve?urn=urn:gvn:NAGO02:IISG-30051001833422.

Figure 3

“Op bezoek bij de Weggeefwinkel en Linkse Kerk” (2008). Eurodusnie opened the first ‘weggeefwinkel’ (free shop) in the Netherlands. This self-produced video introduces the shop and shows how it works and who uses it.

Figure 4

Eurodusnie activists responded to the queen’s visit to Leiden in 2000 by announcing protest actions, which led to extensive speculation by the media on what these actions would entail. Dusnieuws 20 (March 2000).

Although the ‘werpgroep T.A.A.R.T.’ is no longer active, its website is still online and can be viewed at http://www.members.tripod.com/~taart/.

Figure 6

In the collective’s self-published magazine Dusnieuws, the group reflected on the intended and realised effects of pieing prominent politicians. Dusnieuws 19 (February 2000).
