The main goal of www.clandestinenglish.wordpress.com  is to collect and disseminate content about immigration in Greece – which is part of the Fortress Europe regime, of course.  This means we try to bring together news and analyses on the issue for an English speaking public.  We think it is very important to break the language barrier and let an international audience know about what is going on with immigration in Greece.   

We also report on things we are involved in or we have a special interest in, and, in the context of the Group of Immigrants and Refugees local meetings, we try to have our own theoretical and interpretative take on the relevant developments.

Still, by means of  this blog we target mainly the dissemination of news - both from mainstream and alternative media - and of antagonistic viewpoints.  This content may be originally in English, or in Greek – the latter being the rule.  So, practically, even the supposedly easiest thing, the reproduction of already existing content, that is, presents us with various time consuming tasks, such as:

1. the search for news about immigration + Greece in the net.
2. the translation from Greek into English – which includes the need of proof reading the texts by fluent/”native” speakers of English – which we are not.
3. the posting of this stuff on the blog
4. the posting of this stuff at other relevant web places, such as IMCs, lib.com and more…

As you may have noticed, practical limitations usually do not allow us to do the diffuse posting  - and the proof reading of texts, which at times makes our content a bit shabby.

So, if you think you can help with any of the tasks listed above, or if you want to get involved otherwise in order to expand and enrich what we do, send us an email at
