126 The new disorder

We had deluded ourselves into thinking we had put wars and dictatorships aside, or at least managed to forget them by keeping them at bay, but instead they have returned forcefully, invading our space and our time. Vittorio Emanuele Parsi (Against the Empires, Bompiani) questions the dominance of imperial logic and how the American superpower has abandoned the role of the lion watching over the forest to take on that of a hungry wolf. Democracy's commitment must shift to a new strategy to defend the happy space of our freedom. Massimo Mathis.
