The state of the left versus the new “progressive conservatism”
Publicat de Ana pe Apr 27, 2011 in Politic | 4 comentarii“The recent development of ‘progressive’ Conservatism presents a distinct and potent challenge to traditional modes of social democratic thought. Most apparent in the governing strategies of centre-right parties in Germany, Sweden and the UK, it seeks control of the centre-ground through a reputation for economic competence, scepticism about the efficacy of the state, and a belief in the role of traditional values in the context of contemporary society. It is vital that social democrats are able to grasp the nature of this agenda” argumenteaza un bun amic, Patrick Diamond, intr-un articol pe care il recomand.
Adevarul este ca pentru noi cei care credem in social democratia progresiva, de centru-stanga, noua miscare a “conservatorismului progresiv” trebuie sa ne dea serios de gandit iar liderii social democrati trebuie sa castige “the big arguments“, o tema importanta de dezbatere si a conferintei organizata la Oslo de catre Policy Network sub patronajul premierului norvegian Jens Stoltenberg, conferinta la care voi participa. Voi ce parere aveti?
