Separation Anxietyin Children

The world is changing and we do not realize it. Do not they remember even the pundits of international geopolitics. Those who had predicted that three or four authoritarian regimes in the Arab world would crumble under the pressure of ideological revolutions, driven from below, in particular, a new generation of networked globally interconnected social network and angry in the streets, considered " impolitic "until recently, was considered simply crazy. The riots if no one ever expected. There is the Mediterranean on fire now, and 40 sea miles from us that something is happening here would not dream either. It turns out that in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and who knows where people still want the same things most of the people of the West: a better life, greater social equality, jobs, freedom of opinion. No one knows how this story will end, and it may be that the bad governments of the past will be replaced with bad governments, and just wait a few landing on Lampedusa, some increase in gasoline or failure of Unicredit to scrub the thirst for freedom of others, but now look at the pictures of the protesters, the crowds of young people, their coming together, and for a moment recognize those faces, those expressions, elementary particles that are detached from the crowds suddenly convulsed and enter our eyes.
