Brussels remembers Expo '58
Columnist Claude Javeau deplores the nostalgic tone of the many commemorations organised for the 50th anniversary of the Universal Exhibition in Brussels. "When the Expo opened [in 1958], Belgium was still autonomous and possessed an immense colony - whose independence wasn't on the agenda. ... What are we really commemorating when we celebrate Expo '58? Isn't it a Belgium that was still itself? Papa's Belgium, over which reined a gloomy King, with a capital that had just emerged from sleepy provincial status? We just getting over the War; we were starting to taste the fruits offered by the Welfare state; marriages lasted, students were serious, athletes weren't the life of party, Brigitte Bardot incarnated French debauchery, and Mao's China hardly interested anyone. A sort of Belle Époque, which was also a twilight."

For Calude Javeau, progress often goes round in circles
The tram is back! Tramways are multiplying in Europe and especially in France, where they had been wiped out a few years ago. The columnist Claude Javeau is delighted. "The tram is, without a doubt, of all earthly vehicles, the most poetic. We cannot imagine Tennessee Williams writing 'A Bus Named Desire'. ... [The return of the tram] shows that progress is not always linear. The tram had disappeared, the tram has returned: granted, it doesn't look quite the same, and doesn't smell, as it did in the good old double-axle vehicle days, of sour tomato soup (I found the same smell in the old Parisian metro), but it is still the same kind of machine. ... In the same vein, we have to salute the survival of vinyl records and the decks they spin on."

Duped about doping?
"Let's not be naive," admonishes the Belgian sociologist Claude Javeau. "Professional sport these days has become a big show, a giant commercial enterprise with colossal financial stakes. ... Athletes have employers, sponsors and demanding fans. One would have to be foolish to believe that these are sweet-hearted Bernadette Soubirous [a Catholic saint who is said to have seen the Virgin Mary appear] whose only sustenance is Holy Water and cereal. No one gives a hoot about those who practice sport for pleasure: the public wants a show, a fight, exploits. ... It is no longer enough to simply be gifted to become a professional athlete. Everything else is hypocrisy. One might also ask whether it is moral that Johnny Halliday and the Stones do lines before going on stage or that a student gets through his exams by loading up on uppers."

Iran's disturbing participation in football's World Cup
A group of French and Belgian academics and intellectuals contests Iran's participation in the football World Cup in Germany, asserting that "the Iranian theocracy is a tyranny that has no place in an athletic competition at the heart of democratic Europe." They are worried about "a retreat of a universal culture to the benefit of a populist football pseudo-culture. Isn't football a propitious vehicle for all sorts of hysterical religious outpourings given its own status as the tribal religion of postmodern times? ... Might not an Islamicism that is gaining strength throughout the world find in football a pulpit for imposing its propaganda on hundreds of millions of TV viewers? Will football be used to promote a Coran as seen through the eyes of antidemocratic and antisemitic proselytizers? Will Germany allow crazed hordes of fans to bay for the blood of the 'ungodly' or 'apostate' opponent?"
