A NEW MARSHALL PLAN - But I believe that many of the rights acquired by our western societies, it is worth giving up and not worth continuing to fight.
The financial aid that China is making the asphyxiated cases of European countries (as it did to American ones) has the same purpose and have the same effect as the Marshall Plan.
With the money from the Marshall Plan, we have imported cultural patterns, habits, food, clothing new and different from those of our own traditions. We basically were colonized and became a province empire. This creeping colonization by culture was continued for a long time. Even those, like myself, has a boundless love (almost uncritical) for the USA and the cultural models they propose can not condemn the fact that, today, in Italy we celebrate Halloween with such transport, if it were dl part our cultural heritage, most of the carnival!
What happens in the U.S. inevitably recurs in Europe and in Italy where he arrived with 15 years behind (or perhaps, today, much less, given the impetus to the movement of cultural models given by communication technologies). I remember how he hit my fantasy of the young student often layer of makeup on the faces of American teenagers in high school. A few years later, that same film would appear on the faces of young Italian high school students.
While this phenomenon of cultural colonization that accompanied the massive capital flows of the power of history, we expect to become short colony of an empire of China.
CARBONARA OR BIG MAC AND SPRING ROLLS? - E 'at this point that I say that's worth fighting to resist this trend now seems inevitable.
prefer to continue to eat spaghetti and hamburgers rather than spring rolls.
Beyond the banality and metaphorically, I prefer to fight for defend a company that has as its cornerstone the cultural centrality of man, the protection of fundamental rights, social solidarity, freedom, rather than give in to a cultural model that does not recognize any of these values. I prefer to continue to be the province of an empire to star alongside strips with 12 stars on a blue field!
I want to fight to preserve and, if possible, improve the company and its core values \u200b\u200band not to yield to overtake in front of a model of society which, if it were to prevail and establish itself, and would change radically for the worse our quality of life.
Well, so what?
of EU AND U.S. of A AND of ... - I believe that the West has in front of him one way to take and one geopolitical strategy to pursue: a progressive, rapid integration between Europe and North America, to create a large space where goods, services, capital, people, but also ideas, art, cultural events circulate freely and quickly.
I come to this conclusion, starting from an observation of the world map, some considerations from the analysis of macro-economic and demographic trends.
The demographic factor seems decisive.
From static point of view, China (which already has become the second largest economy in the world) has about one billion people and will duecentomilioni soon be a huge market of one billion and duecentomilioni consumers. The European Union has about 500 million people (about 300 million are residents of countries outside the union), North America about 350 million, with Mexico (which is part of NAFTA) reaches about 450. The combination of these macro regions would create a vast common market, whose consumers would, however, for some years, more purchasing power than consumers in China. A market, then that could compete with the Chinese, in terms of critical mass of population.
Moreover, this vast common area would act as a catalyst for other geographical areas and economic importance. To the south, Latin America (which now have a special bond with the U.S., but that is under attack in China) would suffer the magnetic force of attraction of the North Atlantic, east India. The strategic relationship between the U.S. and India have grown and been strengthened in recent years, even in an anti Chinese and anti-Islamic fundamentalism. If I look at the map of the world, I see a dotted line that starts from the USA, passing through Europe and arrived in India, three macro-economic and geographic areas that have common strategic interests and that they would derive enormous benefits from a gradual integration.
But the crucial factor is demographic analysis, including its dynamic
China faces a demographic trend of population decline. The replacement rate (replacement rate) is negative.
On the western front, the U.S. trend is positive, while Europe will suffer a decrease in population. In this respect, therefore, in a European perspective, the integration of the North Atlantic seems to me essential to sustain economic growth of our continent and counter the negative effects of demographic trends will have on the social security system. Moreover, the striking on a world map dotted line that joins the U.S., Europe and India is even more important considering that India, like the U.S., will benefit from a demographic trend of growth. Add
consideration in connection with the relationship of debt and credit. When credit is concentrated in large proportions and a debtor or a small number of debtors, the balance of power between creditor and debtor - of course in favor of the creditor - change, to help balance sometimes favors the debtor. This is certainly true in the relationship between private: that when a defendant decides not to pay or can not pay, the creditor is shaking. In relations between states, things are not much different. It 's true that a creditor State may also decide to take what is due with the tanks, but a scenario like this in today's relations with China, it is unlikely.
In this context, integration between North America and Europe would also have the effect of creating a strong coalition of two large borrowers, a merger of the debt that the debtors would make a bit 'stronger, as opposed to a creditor a bit' more weakened.
Finally, a large space in the North Atlantic whose ideas and cultural patterns are moved quickly and freely, would benefit in terms of mobilization of established positions, the result of cultural settings now plastered in our European society (and Italian, in particular) .
I seem to understand that those "Italians acquired rights" that would be weird to think of imposing referred Deaglio safeguards are the consolidated Annuity position that, far from representing virtues of our society, they betray the very nature of its founding values: freedom, equality, solidarity and also (I think, in particular, solidarity between generations).
A healthy injection of American culture within Europe would be a cure for some fundamental ills of their society of the old continent. Marchionne operations such as integration would be facilitated if the osmosis between the North American and European system were greater. And maybe some of the more readily under the European on their way to North America.
The result would be an overall strengthening and General our Western societies.
