  "Natural's not in it," says Judith Williamson, Professor of Cultural History at Middlesex University, and writer for the left-leaning British newspaper the Guardian."All these excitingly eroticised ideas about the flows of capital absolve one from morality.Most of capitalism's flows are deeply pernicious."She castigates Plant's attitude for its fatalistic underestimation of the power of human beings to change things on both the individual and collective level."Human will is not nothing.All through history there have been huge acts of courage and altruism."

  Judith Williamson, Freelance writer
  
  "In the world of sexual ads, the dominatrix, the bitch and the whore wield power over men; in the real world, a British woman is physically attacked by a man she knows every six seconds.This suggests that, rather than embodying sexual liberation, today's fetishistic imagery provides a language for expressing both sexism and, perhaps, the pain and rage of a sex war which at heart is about social, not sexual power.These ubiquitous images translate the social as sexual: showing gender power struggles nakedly in every sense.And yet we have deprived ourselves of the language to analyse them as such.Our unwillingness to name sexism in the present has on the one hand encouraged it to develop as a form of nostalgia, and on the other, allowed it to flourish in a sexualised form which we perceive as daringly cutting-edge."(Judith Williamson, The Guardian 31/5/03)

  WORDS ARE NOT ENOUGH (AND WHAT'S SO SPECIAL ABOUT OURS ANYWAY?)
  
  It seems to me less urgent to find out what writers, artists and musicians think about war with Iraq, than to find ways to stop that war from happening.The site http://www.open-democracy.org/debates/www.stopwar.org.uk carries the latest information on action in Britain, and http://www.open-democracy.org/debates/www.notinourname.net in the USA.
  
  A footnote: as writers we are, understandably, very fond of our own words, but that doesn't mean we have some special insight on everything that happens in the world.If one wanted a more radical approach to a list such as this, how about finding out what nurses, railway workers and teachers think about events?Or builders, doctors and shop assistants?
