Of Andrea Cavalleri
The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith and the Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development, il 17.05.2018 They have published a document entitled "Economic and financial issues".
The approach to the problem is conducted in the form of "Considerations for ethical discernment", that is, a hybrid form, which is not a clear pronouncement but only a vague exhortation (but then there was the need to bother the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith?) in line with the wavering style of all the latest writings coming from the Vatican.
The topic of the impact of finance on today's world was a must and the authors of the paper must be acknowledged for having correctly raised the current and real issues. Read More

Big confusion under Trump, the situation benefits us

Of Maurizio Blondet

GREAT CONFUSION UNDER TRUMP. SO THE SITUATION BENEFITS US.

GREAT CONFUSION UNDER TRUMP. SO THE SITUATION BENEFITS US.

Of course seeing John Bolton tamed while, on the way to Moscow where he brings an invitation from Trump to Putin, stops in Rome to invite our Prime Minister Conte to the White House, it makes a certain impression: a lot has changed in just a few weeks, and the change comes from Trump. The same one who in a few days turned the page with Korea...

Message from Minister Paolo Savona to Confindustria

Image results for Minister Paolo Savonaof the Minister for European Affairs Paolo Savona

Signor President of Confindustria, Lord and Gentlemen,

the date of 27 June, day before the Council of Europe, has proven to be an obstacle to fulfilling my commitment to attend this meeting. At this very moment I am in the Chamber to gather the will of the Deputies on the position that the Government, through its President, will take over at the next summit of 28-29.

Nonetheless, I want it to come to this meeting, together with my apologies for the involuntary absence, a short message from me.

1° The Chapter 2 of the Report on “How and why to strengthen Europe” is the best most recent analysis I have read on the subject. I feared that this topic could not even be discussed in Italy and reading the document reassured me and encouraged me to address the problems under discussion in Brussels by leaving the ccontingent and framing them in the need and urgency of changes in institutional architecturealand dell’EU. Congratulations therefore to the authors of the Chapter and to the Presidency who wanted this meeting-debate.

2° The first, the third and fourth blocks of theIntroduction contain a summary of the contents of the European matters waiting to be regulated. They are therefore an excellent agenda of the choices that must be made. Obviously it doesn't mean that I agree with all the initiatives proposed as a solution, but if we agree on the objectives, an agreement can be found on the technical tools. Read More

Holy Land: water is not the same for everyone

Thirsty Palestine
Having running water at home in the Palestinian Territories is not at all obvious or normal.
Neither in the West Bank nor in the Gaza Strip. For multiple reasons. Some testimonies from Bethlehem.
Observing the landscape around Beit Sahour, urban center east of Bethlehem, the cisterns on top of the houses allow Palestinian homes to be distinguished from buildings that are part of Jewish settlements. This is explained by the locals who every day deal with the problem of water shortage. The tanks on the houses are useful, Indeed, to conserve water or collect rain, but not all homes need it. In the West Bank, water is distributed differently from house to house, at a distance of a few meters from each other. To overcome the inconveniences of the water emergency, the population does its best, but the problem of resource management remains an open wound that shows no signs of healing, indeed it is "an obstacle to peace", as the BBC defined it.
According to the Palestinian Water Authority, il 95 percent of Palestinian water supplies are found in aquifers (there are three underground basins). Surface water, that could theoretically be available, instead it comes from the floods of the wadis (seasonal streams), from the possible desalination of the waters of the Dead Sea and the Jordan River. None of these resources, However, it is in fact usable by the Palestinians.

ONG, finance and migrants. The Jacques Attali case

Of Ilaria Bifarini
ONG, finance and migrants. The Jacques Attali case
Source: Economic Scenarios
Known as the gray eminence of French politics since Mitterrand and known for his ultra-Europeanism, Jacques Attali is the man who discovered Macron, presenting him to President Hollande of whom he became an advisor. He is credited with the authorship of a very explanatory phrase on elitist sentiment : “But what do you believe, the European rabble: that we created the euro for their happiness?”. Another statement by the illustrious economist is less well known, professor, financier and long-time trusted advisor to the Elysée: “The most intelligent form of selfishness is altruism”.
Philanthropy, this humanitarianist quirk that seems to infect the most successful men, he did not spare Jacques Attali, that in 1998 he founded the non-profit association Planet Finance. Right, the name immediately betrays what should be the humanitarian aim of this organization that operates in 60 countries and offers financial services and consultancy, microfinance to be precise. Ended up in the eye of the storm for the "slavery" economic treatment reserved for interns who required first-rate requirements, the company changes name and becomes Positive Planet, evoking in its name the positivity of the economic model it represents.
