Janerik Larsson har f n mer eller mindre dagliga små betraktelser på SvD:s ledarsida, och dagens heter Den nya folkvandringstiden; han uppmärksammar idag en artikel av ekonomiprofessor Nouriel Roubini på sajten Project Syndicate, så jag går direkt till den:
The Europe Question in 2016
NB: mina fetningar ovan.
https://www.project-syndicate.org/co...2KKmYS54Q6P.03
Roubini efterfrågar kollektiva lösningar för Europa, alltså mer EU, samtidigt som det folkliga stödet sviktar i flertalet länder. Han säger att européerna omhuldar "balkanisering" och "desintegration". Men det ser vi ju nu, med EU och Sveriges exceptionella massimmigration. Schengens yttre gräns försvarades inte och när Ungern försökte så bespottades det lilla landet, i synnerhet premiärministern Viktor Orban, av MSM och EU:s egen grädda. Hur ska ni ha det? Och i Sverige finns fortfarande gråterskorna som genast vill ha tillbaka volymerna, tsunamins svallvågor och nyårets importerade våldtäktspöbel permanentad året runt; ja, gråterskorna finns t o m representerade i regeringen genom MP, som knappt kan bita ihop i trotsandet av sina egna utopiska samveten... Taburetten har dock en god förmåga att med lagom privilegier förlika ministern i samvetsnöd, förmå vederbörande att sitta kvar, integreras.
Project Syndicate bildades på 90-talet och har sitt kontor i Prag; det säger sig samla ett stort antal kvalificerade skribenter, för en global (och globalistisk?) publik. På samma sida som Roubinis artikel ses länkar till distingerade herrar som Jean-Claude Juncker, Chris Stone och Robert Paxton. Chris Stone är president för George Soros baby Open Society Foundations.

The Europe Question in 2016
Citat:
At the cusp of the new year, we face a world in which geopolitical and geo-economic risks are multiplying. Most of the Middle East is ablaze, stoking speculation that a long Sunni-Shia war (like Europe’s Thirty Years’ War between Catholics and Protestants) could be at hand. China’s rise is fueling a wide range of territorial disputes in Asia and challenging America’s strategic leadership in the region. And Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has apparently become a semi-frozen conflict, but one that could reignite at any time.
Citat:
Yet it is Europe that may turn out to be the ground zero of geopolitics in 2016. For starters, a Greek exit from the eurozone may have been only postponed, not prevented, as pension and other structural reforms put the country on a collision course with its European creditors. “Grexit,” in turn, could be the beginning of the end of the monetary union, as investors would wonder which member – possibly even a core country (for example, Finland) – will be the next to leave.
Citat:
If Brexit were to occur, other dominos would fall. Scotland might decide to leave the UK, leading to the breakup of Britain.
Citat:
As for terrorism, the sheer number of homegrown jihadists means that the question for Europe is not whether another attack will occur, but when and where. And repeated attacks could sharply reduce business and consumer confidence and stall Europe’s fragile economic recovery.
Those who argue that the migration crisis also poses an existential threat to Europe are right. But the issue is not the million newcomers entering Europe in 2015. It is the 20 million more who are displaced, desperate, and seeking to escape violence, civil war, state failure, desertification, and economic collapse in large parts of the Middle East and Africa. If Europe is unable to find a coordinated solution to this problem and enforce a common external border, the Schengen Agreement will collapse and internal borders between the EU member states will reappear.

Citat:
In short, the distance between what Europe needs and what Europeans want is growing, and that gap could spell deep trouble in 2016. The eurozone and the EU are facing multiple threats, all of which call for a collective response. But what we are seeing is its member states increasingly adopting a national approach, thus undermining the possibility of Europe-wide solutions (the migration crisis is a tragic case in point).
Europe needs more cooperation, integration, risk sharing, and solidarity. Instead, Europeans appear to be embracing nationalism, balkanization, divergence, and disintegration.
