/28.11.13/.- José María Aznar ha participado en el Foro ADEA 2013, en Zaragoza. Durante su intervención, introducida por Luisa Fernanda Rudi, Aznar ha enumerado las cinco cuestiones fundamentales sobre las que cree necesario reflexionar para el futuro de España.
Two years ago, the bicentenary of Jovellanos' death passed unnoticed among us, to our shame and as a sign of how sick we are as a country. Freud said that our memory losses betray us. In this case, it's as if the figure of our outstanding man would leave most of our political class unmasked. Therefore I consider it just in such a crisis–which is also a crisis of politics and of politicians–to celebrate today the anniversary of his death on November 27, 1811 in Puerto de Vega, fleeing from Napoleon's advance on his hometown Gijon.

Fifty years ago, the thirty-fifth President of the United States, John Fitzgerald Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas by the bullets fired by a young communist sympathiser, Lee Harvey Oswald. It was then that the Kennedy myth emerged. The myth of a life cut short at full maturity, of a progressive presidency too soon interrupted and of a thwarted American dream. However, half a century after the Dallas assassination and thanks to both the historical perspective achieved over time and to several research works of very high historiographical value, it is possible to separate myth from reality.
Europe is in the throes of two simultaneous crises: on the one hand, it is suffering from a political crisis, a crisis of leadership, one that has led to constitutional failure; on the other, it is suffering from a loss of identity, a phenomenon that results in cultural relativism. Marcello Pera, Speaker of the Italian Senate and Professor of Philosophy of Science at the University of Pisa, delivered a conference entitled “Strength of Identity” during the course of the FAES Campus 2005, a paper which the FAES Foundation is now publishing. Also known as the co-author of the book Senza Radici (“Without Roots”) alongside Cardinal Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI), Professor Pera urges European culture to proudly recall and reaffirm its origins and its universal democratic principles: freedom, equality and tolerance. In this respect, Europe must recognise the intrinsic value of a civilisation, Western civilisation, that has given the world so many universal ideas. “Europe must be aware of the moral superiority of a series of values that have prevailed over centuries and that have produced beneficial results wherever they have become established”.
