Blokwatch

Blokwatch is the name of a Belgian newssite, a virtual archive and documentation centre, and meeting point for research on and about the far right in Flanders.

Among other things, the site provides the complete version (in Dutch) of the Vlaams Belang party statutes ("Basisbeginselen") and the notorious "70 steps plan".

It is an independent volunteer initiative, founded by Marc Spruyt (aka Blokwatcher), author of a number of works on the Vlaams Blok ("Grove Borstels", "Wat het Vlaams Blok verzwijgt") and who is generally considered the expert on the Far Right in Flanders.

(Skynet is a local, Belgian blog service.)

Eventually, a team of 12 people was assembled that - after consolidating the Blokwatch web log with 3 other web logs ("Baron Jéan de Sélys-Longchamps", "antifa" and "vlaamsblok.blogspot") - launched the site as it is now on January 7, 2005.
