Lo “spazio comune” trasforma la politica – The “common space” transforms politics

Giudizio storicoPensiero StrategicoProgetto di civiltà

La “politica” che conosciamo non lavora nello “spazio comune”: eppure è quello, dentro la rivoluzione tecnologica in atto, che la trasforma.

Abbiamo già scritto, e ribadiamo, che la sostenibilità intesa in senso complesso parte dalla coesione delle società, dalla ri-appropriazione dello “spazio comune”. Le democrazie liberali, oggi, hanno il compito strategico di uscire dalla dicotomia tra pubblico e privato e devono lavorare, colpite al cuore dalla grande questione sociale, a rafforzare il “comune” dimenticato in anni di competizione esasperata tra i sacerdoti dello Stato e i sacerdoti del mercato.

Per quanto ovvio, la ri-appropriazione dello “spazio comune” chiede realismo, chiede di mediare tra istanze planetarie e necessità territoriali in quella “glocalità” che ci sembra essere la nuova frontiera della globalizzazione e della politica. In sostanza, mettere al centro lo “spazio comune”, dunque le relazioni per la coesione sociale, significa rafforzare l’idea di “società aperta” che, come i fatti degli ultimi trent’anni dimostrano, o è diventata società in balia di una globalizzazione selvaggia o si è chiusa in chiave autarchica.

Se lo “spazio comune” trasforma la politica, due sono gli elementi che occorre sottolineare, e che approfondiremo. Il primo elemento riguarda la necessità che ogni società adotti strumenti di immunizzazione che permettano di mantenere uno sviluppo autoctono e non necessariamente omologato a ciò che vorrebbero gli incontrollati (e incontrollabili) flussi planetari. Ne vengono, evidentemente, nuove politiche in tutti i campi: la società aperta ha bisogno del respiro del mondo ma deve rimanere soggetto storico e strategico. Il secondo elemento, partendo dalle necessità di immunizzazione, che sono normali in un mondo regolato, riguarda il giudizio storico sulla situazione in continua evoluzione: fare politica significa dialogare (verbo profondo e complesso) tra sistemi e non continuare, come si è fatto per anni e come accade ancora oggi in maniera esasperata, a fabbricare nemici in un mondo inter-in-dipendente.

English version

“Politics” we know does not work in the “common space”: yet it is that, within the technological revolution in progress, transforms politics.

We have already written, and we reiterate, that sustainability understood in a complex sense starts from the cohesion of societies, from the re-appropriation of the “common space”. Liberal democracies, today, have the strategic task of breaking out of the dichotomy between public and private and must work, struck at the heart by the great social question, to strengthen the “common” forgotten in years of exasperated competition between the priests of the State and the priests of the market.

As obvious as it may be, the re-appropriation of the “common space” requires realism, it asks to mediate between planetary flows and territorial needs in a “glocality” that seems the new frontier of globalization and politics. In essence, putting the “common space” at the center, therefore relations for social cohesion, means reinforcing the idea of an “open society” which, as the events of the last thirty years show, has either become a society at the mercy of a wild globalization or closed in an autarchic key.

If the “common space” transforms politics, there are two elements that need to be emphasized, and that we will deepen. The first element concerns the need for every society to adopt immunization tools that allow it to maintain an indigenous development that is not necessarily homologated to what the uncontrolled (and uncontrollable) planetary flows would like. Obviously, new policies are emerging in all fields: the open society needs the breath of the world but must remain a historical and strategic subject. The second element, starting from the immunization needs, which are normal in a regulated world, concerns the historical judgment on the constantly evolving situation: doing politics means dialoguing (profound and complex verb) between systems and not continuing, as has been done for years and as still happens today in an exasperated way, to fabricate enemies in an inter-in-dependent world.

The Russian grouping in Donetsk Oblast is likely seeking to capitalize on recent marginal gains southeast of Bakhmut by continuing to attempt to advance in that area. Russian forces may be de-emphasizing attempts to take Siversk in order to concentrate on Bakhmut, but it is too soon to tell.Russian forces continued efforts to advance northward on Bakhmut from recently gained positions around Novoluhanske and the Vuhlehirska Power Plant while pursuing southwestward advances along the T1302 highway from recently captured positions in Berestove. By contrast, Russian forces have been struggling to make concrete gains around Siversk and have not made any confirmed advances toward the city since the capture of the Luhansk Oblast Administrative border in early July. Russian command is likely, therefore, seeking to maintain momentum around Bakhmut, potentially at the expense of continued pressure on Siversk. Russian forces remain unlikely to take Bakhmut itself, despite recent incremental advances in its direction. Russian Offensive Campaign Assessment, July 28

After making slow but steady gains in eastern Ukraine recently, Russia has inched closer to its recalibrated goal of seizing the entire Donbas region. Even though its military has sustained heavy losses—and while the Kremlin’s current objectives are much smaller than its initial goal of capturing Kyiv and overthrowing the government—the chances of escalation in this war persist. The Ukrainians’ successful use of Western-supplied, high-precision weapons such as the M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) might compel the Kremlin to boost its aggression.  Climbing the escalation ladder in Ukraine: A menu of options for the West

Digital & Tech

  • July 28, 2022. Mariano-Florentino Cuéllar, Benjamin Larsen, Yong Suk Lee, and Michael Webb, Brookings. Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have become increasingly widespread over the last decade. As the use of AI has become more common and the performance of AI systems has improved, policymakers, scholars, and advocates have raised concerns. Policy and ethical issues such as algorithmic bias, data privacy, and transparency have gained increasing attention, raising calls for policy and regulatory changes to address the potential consequences of AI (Acemoglu 2021). As AI continues to improve and diffuse, it will likely have significant long-term implications for jobs, inequality, organizations, and competition. Premature deployment of AI products can also aggravate existing biases and discrimination or violate data privacy and protection practices. Because of AI technologies’ wide-ranging impact, stakeholders are increasingly interested in whether firms are likely to embrace measures of self-regulation based on ethical or policy considerations and how decisions of policymakers or courts affect the use of AI systems. Where policymakers or courts step in and regulatory changes affect the use of AI systems, how are managers likely to respond to new or proposed regulations? How does information about AI regulation affect managers’ choices?
