European austerity map runs out

The Guardian, the newspaper at the forefront of crowdsourcing, has made available an interactive map showing the cuts to culture being made by governments across Europe. We already know that the Netherlands is in the lead, but Spain is not doing well either, as we might have expected.

You can help build the map yourself, which is nice , because it allows us to see ourselves in a somewhat broader context. In the Netherlands, something like this also got off the ground spontaneously, but that map is limited to our borders. Here the european scale. And then it still looks different.
