The past foretells the future and those who ignore it are doomed to have the consequences of their actions. The European Union, for example, to the question ‘deepening or expanding?’ He stood in the immediate benefit of the new markets and did little to strengthen it. She forgot that she promised an economy of knowledge, innovation and the best paid workers, left her economic and political power, lost in competitiveness and naively assigned her safety to the US, her energy competence in Russia and part of her production in China. Without a common defense and foreign policy, no common development planning and with a bureaucracy cut off by its peoples, it is reminiscent of a more senior Soviet on Brezniev.
From a model of peace, democracy and prosperity, he fell into the hybrid to consider what he achieved both the European way of life and what constituted him obsolete and anachronistic. Today she is scared by Trub, the rise of the far -right and the far -left, baptizes those who criticize her populists and denies that her choices have created today’s impasses and made her unable to manage what is happening even in her neighborhood. The weak European leaders are looking for “enemies” to cover their inadequacy.
Let us now look at our homeland, not only in the European context that defines it, but also in its particularities. Our entry into the memorandums was the result of a deep economic value and institutional crisis. Although 15 years have elapsed, we have never discussed sober and organized about their causes and how to avoid them. Only the toxic rendering of responsibility remains, in terms of fanatics and not understanding the choices that gave birth to them. This incomplete debate suffered those who were responsible and allowed populism to reap. The rendering of justice is not exhausted in electoral convictions. It requires change of rules, a new model of responsibility, transparency, accountability and meritocracy. The state is not a loot.
This step was not. Thus, the deficit of confidence in our institutional functions, in all its manifestations, was not restored. The suspicion that permeates the majority of citizens, as recorded in all polls, is shocking, but also reasonable. And the mere invocation of them in different times highlights the crisis that is not overcome and maximizes anger and insecurity. Which is swelling, as, while public finances improve, the same is not the case with the purchasing power of a large part of the population, which in the best of cases brings them difficult. This is not populism. And the invocation of stability to these public is probably a threat.
The tragic accident of the Tempi remains an open wound for society, not only for the unjustified memory of the people who have been so unjustly lost, but also as a constant reminder of the request for a state that protects and serves citizens and who, when it is wrong, punishes the culprits and the culprits. He ever makes sure to repeat the same mistakes at least. Don’t play with the terms. It is not the majority of those who react anti -systemic, protesting are, and better management. It’s not a mob. Visibility, justice, security and respect claim. The tool is always two -way and is not a solution. Acceptance of the problem is a prerequisite for a way out, otherwise the social explosion follows.
