It was supposed to be a fabulous party. But eleven years after the launch of the Euro, the crisis is total.

In this web series we will explore who is winning and who is losing in the euro crisis. How did it come this far, and most of all, what kind of Europe do we want?

This web series is based on the bestseller "How Dare They – the euro, the crisis, and the big hold-up" by Peter Mertens.

The unsinkable ship is taking on water. Uncountable gallons of water are filling the lower decks of the Titanic. A search for a new society is imperative. One where people are the centre, not profit. An open conversation about society. You can help out.

We are counting on you!

This web series is based on “How dare they? – The Euro, the crisis and the big hold-up”  by Peter Mertens, EPO distribution.

The Eyjafjallajökull is a natural phenomenon. The economic crisis is not. It should not invite bewilderment about untameable powers, but outrage. After the crisis of 2008, bankers, money-grabbers, and bubble blowers got … even more power. In a big hold-up, millions of Euros changed owners to the hands of millionaires again.  In Europe, the speculators were attributed a royal standing, and are now tamely called “markets”. As if they were emperor Nero, they decide – with a thumbs up or thumbs down – about the future of entire peoples. From Greece to Italy to the north they are demanding again that you and me pay for the crisis, for the second time. How dare they!
