/17.04.15/.- FAES Foundation has published today ‘Elections in the UK: Four Main Actors for a Crucial Election’ in which the author of the book Cameron. Tras la senda de Churchill y Thatcher, Alfredo Crespo Alcázar, analyses the political situation in the UK and the possible consequences of the upcoming general elections of May 7.
The UK is to hold its general elections on May 7 and the uncertainty about who will be the final winner has become the most prominent feature in the weeks of the campaign. Actors destined to play but a marginal role on the British political scenario have gained prominence, such as the United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) and the Scottish National Party (SNP). Both parties seek to decant the sign of the Government through a series of agreements towards which both the Conservative Party and the Labour Party have reacted with deliberate indifference.
/15.04.15/.- La revista Cuadernos de Pensamiento Político, editada por FAES y dirigida por Javier Zarzalejos, publica su número 46, cuya nota editorial señala que la crisis del bipartidismo en España arranca en 2005, cuando “el proyecto de la Transición quedó interrumpido”. Además, Ignacio Martín Blanco desmonta en un artículo la atribución que el nacionalismo catalán hace del auge del separatismo a la mayoría absoluta de Aznar.
/14.04.14/.- On the 150th anniversary of the end of the end of the American Civil War and of the assassination of Lincoln, the analyst Martín Alonso recalls that the challenge of the South threatened the very existence of the nation and the president, aware of this, went to war to preserve democracy and the Constitution. In this analysis published by FAES he states that giving in to the Confederacy’s blackmail would have entailed, in the long run, the destruction of the country, as the demands of the South would have continued.
14.04.15.- Former presidents of Argentina Fernando de la Rúa; Brazil, Fernando H. Cardoso; Chile, Ricardo Lagos; Ecuador, Sixto Durán Ballén; Panama, Ricardo Martinelli, and Dominican Republic, Hipólito Mejía, have joined the Declaration of Panama after its release last April 9. With these new signings, 31 Ibero-American former heads of State and Government have signed the document denouncing the situation suffered by Venezuela.
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”.
