Vital Villages
A book that tells the story about the movement of cultural villages in Europa.
Europe needs new inspiration. There are enough signs in that direction. This inspiration could be found in villages. Because in the political discussion is becoming clear that there is a need for relations between citizens. Integration is on the agenda again. Individualization is not sufficient. In politics is a new interest for responsibility of citizens.
In this poltical climate a movement Cultural Village of Europe came into existence in two different countries of Europe. It found the cooperation of 11 other villages in 11 different European countries.
The experiences of the first seven years of Cultural Village of Europe have been written down in a book "Vital villages" that has been written by a journalist who saw its development from the beginning on a distance.
