Today @martinwolf_ on @FT lists my book among the best ones this year:
'original and provocative work on how to combine freedom with prosperity...radical...might not be workable. But it is definitely attractive'
On the Financial Times, @martinwolf_ lists my book as one of the 'best summer economics books':

Interesting critique of EU digital rules:
'Brussels fails to recognise that digital sovereignty isn’t just about who owns or controls your technology. It’s also about having an independent vision for how that technology is designed, developed and deployed'

The usual time of eating dinner in Europe. I remember traveling to Spain as a young kid and my German 6pm meal had to wait until 10pm. It was weird. Source: https://t.co/zDTcX7moR7
Ocupation, death of a child:
“The soldier signalled me to stop. I brought the car to a complete halt and raised my hands on the steering wheel. Immediately afterwards, they opened fire on the vehicle” https://t.co/iEGw9QtAl6
"Machiavel reconnaît aux dominés la connaissance de leur propre domination. Montrer [aux Européens] la perspective crédible d’une plus grande liberté [peut] vaincre les démagogues nationaux [et soutenir] l’objectif de l’autonomie extérieure [de l'Europe]".
@Grand_Continent@AndreaCapussela Il est grd temps que ce dynamisme, d’une autonomie républicaine soit relayée et amplifiée et ce à tous les étages,classes,de la société européenne. Il n’est pas interdit de penser que l’effet schumpeterien ne devrait pas pouvoir,aussi, s’appliquer aux représentations politiques…
I spoke of it very briefly at my book promotion yesterday in Paris--I think it is an important if somewhat speculative point. The Sinification of Marxism may, for the first time in history, create a unified Euro-Asian ideology that would bring together ancient Greek and ancient Chinese influences. Plato & Confucius through Marx.
The ideological implications of China’s economic success
Sinified Marxism and its future

Trump a radicalisé l’Europe.
Dans les racines d’une vieille idée de liberté, une nouvelle histoire du futur s'articule.

'a proposed West Bank settlement that would...render the concept of a two-state solution near impossible'
Two problems:
- ICJ ruled that all settlements must be removed: so, what's the problem?
- if removal is unrealistic, isn't that solution already dead?

@ddrdrdrdr@FilBarbera Lo leggerei nel senso che se c'è intervento pubblico e debole responsabilità politica le inefficienze sono probabili; soluzione è più diffuso ed efficace controllo dei cittadini, non necessariamente privatizzazione (soprattutto se di fatto è monopolio)
Mio pezzo per la nuova rivista Dissonanze, su libertà, democrazia, innovazione e prosperità:
perché la visione dominante della libertà le separa, mentre la visione classica, o repubblicana, le tiene insieme
La questione della libertà si intreccia con le asimmetrie di potere tra gli individui. Le disuguaglianze economiche e la concentrazione di potere rappresentano una minaccia alla democrazia @AndreaCapussela https://t.co/VWnJMnAX4J
Se dovete leggere una sola cosa oggi, leggete questo articolo di @AndreaCapussela
"I liberali di oggi sono democratici, naturalmente, ma anch’essi ammettono che libertà e democrazia possono entrare in tensione. Friedrich Hayek e Milton Friedman ne diedero l’esempio estremo quando, in nome della libertà, scelsero di sostenere il regime militare imposto al Cile dal colpo di Stato del 1973."

Condemnation is widespread when a nun, or a crucifix, is attacked; much less when this happens:
'Israeli reservist shot 14-year-old Aws al-Naasan in the head just outside [his] school', and later killer another Palestinian.
