Very good piece on the politics of flags - with a link to the Korea flag incident at the Olympics - by Klaus Dodds and Alasdair Pinkerton.

Via Stuart: interesting. My father's profession was as a "vexilollogist" (flag expert) and he wrote his PhD on political symbolism in the flags of the Third Reich.
