Verrebbe voglia di dar ragione alla Biennale della Democrazia - che si svolgerà questa settimana a Torino fino a domenica (l'ultima mattina vi parteciperò anch'io) - dedicata al tema Utopico. Possibile? Ma poi a pensarci bene, sorge il dubbio inverso: e se invece fossimo malati di utopia e pervasi d'irrealtà, se il deficit principale del nostro tempo fosse proprio la perdita della realtà? Nella crisi economica e sociale, politica e ambientale, nella vita privata dominata dall'hi-tech e dal web, viviamo la scomparsa della realtà e l'avvento di una dimensione virtuale, irreale, artificiale. Si arriva alla stessa conclusione partendo da punti diversi: l'osservazione della vita corrente, il collasso dei sistemi e la riflessione sul pensiero.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;Alle origini della crisi economica c'è il divario tra la finanzia speculativa con i suoi derivati tossici e l'economia reale, legata al lavoro e ai beni tangibili; alle origini delle crisi sociale c'è il primato degli assetti contabili sulla vita reale dei popoli; alle origini della crisi politica c'è l'incapacità di comprendere le reali condizioni di vita della gente; l'amor patrio passa dalla concretezza della terra e del popolo all'astrazione della norma (patriottismo costituzionale). L'unione europea collassa perché non è fondata sulla realtà dei popoli europei ma su parametri normativi. I rapporti personali si spengono perdendo la loro fisica prossimità; la rapidità dei consumi divora la concretezza delle cose, sostituendo il desiderio alla realtà. Il feticismo hi-tech crea un diaframma con la realtà, i codici soppiantano la vita, la società liquida e fugace cancella la solida persistenza del reale; l'incuria del reale si fa degrado dell'ambiente. Affidiamo alla tecnica e ai suoi mezzi (anche farmaceutici) la soluzione dei problemi reali: la malattia, la vecchiaia, il sesso, la morte. La fiction non affianca la realtà ma affranca dalla realtà. Non visitiamo mondi paralleli ma abitiamo con un nickname in un Mega-Mondo irreale. Abbiamo abdicato alla realtà vivendo in mondi virtuali o immaginari, da solipsisti o autistici. A supporto della svolta c'è l'irrealismo filosofico, l'abolizione del reale, le interpretazioni soggettive al posto della realtà. La natura è ripudiata come feticcio inerte, arcaico, vincolante.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;La nostra vita è mediata e artificiosa, si atrofizza il senso della realtà, sempre più incapaci d'intendere misura e confini. Sbarrano il passo due mercenari che non rispondono più al loro padrone: la finanza e la tecnica costruiscono mondi virtuali e ci separano dalla realtà. Non si tratta di cacciarli dalla nostra vita ma ricacciarli nel loro ruolo, detronizzarli dalla loro signoria e restituirli alla loro condizione servile di utili strumenti. Cosa manca a un ragazzo che vive incollato al suo computer, i-pad o smart-phone, che naviga sul web, costruisce amicizie su facebook, usa un avatar o che magari si sballa con fumi, alcol e qualche pasticca? Cosa manca a una ragazza che si veste, si atteggia e parla come le sue dive preferite e i suoi modelli televisivi? Cosa manca a un anziano, un'anziana che si atteggia a giovane, si fa il lifting e usa pasticche per vivere ancora esperienze giovanili? Cosa manca a un tecnico che ritiene prioritario l'esercizio finanziario piuttosto che le condizioni di vita della gente? Cosa manca a un politico che per salvare se stesso o il suo partito sacrifica l'interesse generale, senza curarsi di quel che hanno bisogno i suoi concittadini? Cosa manca a un banchiere che si agita in borsa e segue i riti magici, religiosi e satanici della liturgia monetaria e degli indici azionari? Cosa manca a un egoista che usa il mondo come una discarica a cielo aperto e i rapporti con gli altri, con la città, con la terra, come strumenti per soddisfare le proprie esigenze? Cosa manca viceversa a un altruista che pensa di correggere il mondo fino ad abolire la storia e l'esperienza, per fabbricare il suo mondo migliore, per immaginare una nuova umanità? Cosa manca a chi non assegna alcun senso all'ordine naturale e ai legami naturali, a chi reputa la famiglia un'unione come le altre, di cui è insignificante, se non d'intralcio alla vita, la nascita di figli? E cosa manca all'Unione europea sorta come un'unione puramente normativa, fondata su parametri, statuti uniformi e monete uniche, tecnocrazie e finanza? Cosa manca al legame sociale e nazionale se il fondamento dell'unione tra concittadini è collocato nella Norma Costituzionale, ossia nelle regole sancite da una Legge Suprema, elevato a patriottismo della Costituzione?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;Non so quante altre cose manchino a ciascuno di loro, ciascuna ha una sua storia irriducibile alle altre, ma una mancanza li accomuna sicuramente: non hanno il senso della realtà. Ovvero non si confrontano col mondo, con la vita, non hanno il senso della misura, non fanno tesoro dell'esperienza delle cose realmente accadute, non si affacciano direttamente sul mondo, non riconoscono la loro origine, la paternità e la maternità da cui provengono, e dunque la discendenza e la figliolanza, non si fondano sulle connessioni con la realtà, cioè la storia, la vita, la biografia. Vivono tra continue mediazioni, sostituiscono la realtà con l'immaginazione, con la proiezione dei loro desideri, usano la mente non per conoscere la realtà e magari penetrarne i segreti, ma per sfuggirla, aggirarla, abbatterla perfino. Compensano il senso comune della realtà e dei suoi limiti con farmaci, apparati normativi, regole e parametri. Vivono nella dimensione dell'utopia, a volte utopia privata e singola, a volte utopia di coppia e di setta, a volte utopia pubblica, sociale e politica. Quel che manca è il senso della realtà. Magari anche le epoche precedenti in altre forme hanno vissuto anch'esse la perdita della realtà o del suo senso, e quel che agli occhi odierni appare maggiore vicinanza alla realtà, alla vita e alle sue sorgenti elementari e dirette, era solo una condizione più rozza, più povera, più primitiva. Ma la percezione di fondo è che ora abitiamo sempre più nella bolla dell'utopia.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: small; font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;Certo, un ideale regolativo ci vuole per plasmare la realtà e per nobilitarla e forse quello è il seme dell'utopia o del dover essere che ci vuole per ingravidare la realtà. Ma oggi l'atto più rivoluzionario che si possa compiere è liberarsi dell'utopia in cui siamo risucchiati e ripartire dalla realtà, i suoi limiti e la sua poesia. Riscoprire la realtà e non perdersi nell'immaginazione. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Hier, en fin de journée, le parlement chypriote a rejeté le plan proposé par le gouvernement, ouvrant une nouvelle phase de la crise dont certains jugent qu’elle peut conduire à des événements totalement incontrôlables et insaisissables. Ce &lt;a class=&quot;gen&quot; href=&quot;http://www.guardian.co.uk/business/economics-blog/2013/mar/19/cyprus-eurozone-cunning-plan-bank-bailout&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003855;&quot;&gt;20 mars 2013&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, un article du &lt;em&gt;Guardian&lt;/em&gt; notait&amp;nbsp;: «&lt;em&gt;One&lt;/em&gt; [&lt;em&gt;commentator&lt;/em&gt;] &lt;em&gt;said it was the opening of Pandora's Box; another saw events in the eastern Mediterranean country as the equivalent of the assassination of archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo.&lt;/em&gt;» &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;Nous avons effleuré un aspect déconcertant et exotique de cette crise avec quelques observation sur notre chère Sorcha Faal (voir ce &lt;a class=&quot;gen&quot; href=&quot;http://www.dedefensa.org/article-m_me_les_complotistes_sont_d_pass_s__19_03_2013.html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003855;&quot;&gt;19 mars 2013&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;). Nous allons plus loin dans notre démarche, d’abord en proposant diverses réactions à cette initiative, dont la vertu principale est de montrer, autant que les caractères étranges de la mesure envisagée, le flou et l’incertitude qui règnent quant à identifier précisément qui a décidé quoi, qui a exigé quoi et ainsi de suite... S'il y a bien dictature du Système, le moins qu'on puisse dire est que son efficacité de fonctionnement est pour le moins erratique et confuse, jusqu'à l'inversion de la chose à l'étape présente&amp;nbsp;: le vote du parlement de Chypre a sanctionné une victoire sans conditions de la révolte populaire, à laquelle le Système avait ainsi offert une voie triomphale d'affirmation. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;• Le site &lt;em&gt;ZeroHedge.com&lt;/em&gt; a largement suivi l’épisode de ce week-end en diffusant plusieurs articles bien documentés, et renvoyant à l’habituelle qualité du site dans ses commentaires. Mark J. Grant résumait la situation au terme du week-end, le &lt;a class=&quot;gen&quot; href=&quot;http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-03-17/rape-cyprus-european-union-imf&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003855;&quot;&gt;18 mars 2013&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;: «&lt;em&gt;There was no tax on the bank accounts in Cyprus. There still is no tax; the Cyprus Parliament has not passed it and will not vote on it until tomorrow so whatever action takes place it is retroactive. Next, this was not enacted by Cyprus. The people from Nicosia did not go to the Summit and ask to have the bank accounts in their country minimized to help pay the bills. Far from it;&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;the nations of Europe, Germany, France, the Netherlands and the rest, demanded that this take place, a “fait accompli,”&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;the President of Cyprus said and Europe annexes Cyprus. Let's be quite clear; the European Union has confiscated the private property of the citizens in Cyprus without debate, legislation or Parliamentary agreement.&lt;/em&gt;» &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;Sur le même site, Tyler Durden observe, le &lt;a class=&quot;gen&quot; href=&quot;http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-03-17/cyprus-world’s-biggest-poker-game&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003855;&quot;&gt;18 mars 2013&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, citant la &lt;a id=&quot;_GPLITA_0&quot; style=&quot;text-decoration: underline;&quot; title=&quot;Click to Continue &amp;gt; by Text-Enhance&quot; href=&quot;http://www.dedefensa.org/article-la_dictature_autodestructrice_du_syst_me_20_03_2013.html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #c0c0c0; text-decoration: underline;&quot;&gt;Royal&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Bank of Scotland (RBS), qu’il s’agit du “plus gros coup de poker” jamais joué&amp;nbsp;; que ce processus a toutes les chances de se répéter dans d’autres pays et que la seule réaction désormais possible est l’insurrection populaire. «[T]&lt;em&gt;his stunning move in Cyprus is likely only the beginning of this process (which seems only stoppable by social unrest now).&lt;/em&gt; […] &lt;em&gt;As RBS summarizes, “the deal to effectively haircut Cypriot deposits is an unprecedented move in the Euro crisis and highlights the limits of solidarity and the raw economics that somebody has to pay. It is also the most dangerous gambit that EMU leaders have made to date.”&lt;/em&gt;» &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;• Le &lt;a class=&quot;gen&quot; href=&quot;http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2013/03/18/cypr-m18.html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003855;&quot;&gt;18 mars 2013&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; également, le site &lt;em&gt;WSWS.org&lt;/em&gt; faisait, avec son habituelle précision, un compte-rendu général à la fois des faits et des premières réactions, notamment aux USA et dans les milieux européens. Il faut noter qu’il s’agit là aussi de réactions venues de personnalités et d’organismes qui se trouvent au cœur du Système, tant au niveau financier qu’au niveau politique. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;«&lt;em&gt;The response of the financial magazine Forbes was scathing, denouncing the “German-led group of EU officials” for “probably the single most inexplicably irresponsible decision in banking supervision in the advanced world since the 1930s.” Another Forbes columnist entitled his comment, “Welcome to Another Great Depression.” Business Insider noted the “multiple reports which indicated that Germany told Cyprus: Confiscate your depositors’ money or leave the euro zone. That’s a terrible political dynamic, and on top of Italy it exacerbates a bad overall political situation.”&lt;/em&gt; […] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;»&lt;em&gt;With Italy still lacking a viable government, Monti, in his role as caretaker leader, appealed to EU leaders to soften their austerity course or face the same fate. In a letter to the summit, he declared that the election result showed “public support for the reforms, and worse, for the European Union, is dramatically declining” as part of a “trend which is also visible in many other countries across the Union.” Luxembourg Prime Minister and European Council President Jean-Claude Juncker warned at the start of the summit, “I have big worries about the coming economic developments. I won’t exclude that we run the risk of a social revolution, a social rebellion.”&lt;/em&gt;» &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;• Aujourd’hui, ce &lt;a class=&quot;gen&quot; href=&quot;http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/commentators/germanys-denied-it-so-has-the-ecb-so-whose-idea-was-it-to-demand-a-savings-tax-8541336.html&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003855;&quot;&gt;20 mars 2013&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, Ben Chu, dans &lt;em&gt;The Independent&lt;/em&gt;, rapporte quelques précisions sur la confusion extrême qui règne à propos de la détermination des responsabilités de cette décision à l’origine… &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;«&lt;em&gt;The eurozone was still embroiled in an acrimonious dispute tonight over whose idea it was to impose a tax on the savings of ordinary depositors in Cypriot banks… &lt;/em&gt;[…] &lt;em&gt;At the weekend, the Cypriot government briefed the media that Wolfgang Schauble, the German Finance Minister, and Christine Lagarde, the head of the International Monetary Fund, had been instrumental in pressuring Nicosia to impose the levy on small depositors as the price of the country’s €10bn bailout. “We didn’t expect such demand from our European partners” said Cypriot President, Nicos Anastasiades. But that interpretation of events was firmly denied by Mr Schauble earlier this week.&lt;/em&gt; […] &lt;em&gt;A Reuters report on Monday suggested the idea had come from a desperate President Anastasiades… &lt;/em&gt;[…] &lt;em&gt;However, an insider account of the Brussels negotiations from the Wall Street Journal muddied the waters further by suggesting that the idea&lt;/em&gt; [..] &lt;em&gt;was first put forward by the Economic Affairs Commissioner in Brussels, Olli Rehn.&lt;/em&gt;» &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;• Aditya Chakrabortty, qui est le chef de la rubrique économique du &lt;em&gt;Guardian&lt;/em&gt;, livrait son impression générale le &lt;a class=&quot;gen&quot; href=&quot;http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2013/mar/18/cyprus-savings-raid-bank-robbery&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003855;&quot;&gt;18 mars 2013&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.

Le nom de Boulay étant peu connu du grand public, cette phrase, attestée par des témoignages de l'époque, se retrouvera souvent attribuée à Fouché, et parfois même à Talleyrand.&lt;/em&gt;» De même que dans le cas d'origine, ce jugement appliqué à l’affaire chypriote pourrait également être distribué à plusieurs auteurs et, qui plus est, concerner nombre de coupables possibles sans qu'on n'en soit sûr d'aucun, alors que l’unanimité des réactions est remarquable… Dans tous les cas, voici celle de Chakrabortty, commentateur-Système s’il en est, comme le montre le qualificatif de “clown” qu’il applique à Beppe Grillo, sans doute au grand désappointement de Berlusconi. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;«&lt;em&gt;What's different this time is the nakedness of the Cyprus heist. The right can jump up and down at a massive infringement of property rights. The left can fulminate at the obvious social unjustness of such a tax, levied even while the banks are shut. However the Brussels elite might thus seek to defend their plan, they have managed to offend all sides – and so blown a huge hole in the credibility of the eurozone. As Talleyrand once scornfully remarked of the latest blunder by Napoleon Bonaparte: “It's worse than a crime; it's a mistake.”&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;»&lt;em&gt;That will be the lasting lesson from this week: it shows up again just how far the single currency has drifted from all those warm words uttered in the 90s about creating a continental shelter from turbulent globalisation. As we have seen since the sovereign debt crisis began, the euroclub has bullied its poorer members into swallowing poisonous austerity and social regressiveness in order to keep a bust system on the road. In so doing they have created the conditions for such clowns like Beppe Grillo and thugs such as Golden Dawn.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;»&lt;em&gt;A friend of mine has a mid-level job at the European Commission. Over the past few years, through Greece and Ireland and Portugal and Spain, he has kept up a resolutely chipper air. This weekend, as details of the Cyprus deal came out, he sent me this email: “Is this what the European financial system has come down to? A direct appropriation of savings because it cannot cure its systemic problems. It is not just the banks that are bankrupt. It is the whole bloody model that has run its course and we are in denial.” If even the true believers in the euro, the ones who have built their careers on it, now express such fundamental scepticism, you have to wonder how long it will last – or in what form.&lt;/em&gt;» &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;• Les Russes, qui sont concernés par cette affaire à cause de dépôts importants d’argent dans les banques chypriotes de divers “oligarques” substantiellement enrichis, réagissent avec vigueur, selon &lt;em&gt;Russia Today&lt;/em&gt; le &lt;a class=&quot;gen&quot; href=&quot;http://rt.com/business/putin-cyprus-levy-unfair-424/&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #c0c0c0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: #003855;&quot;&gt;19 mars 2013&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. Poutine a qualifié l’affaire de «&lt;em&gt;unfair, unprofessional and dangerous&lt;/em&gt;», Medvedev de «&lt;em&gt;forfeiture of other people’s money&lt;/em&gt;» selon une décision jugée par lui “étrange et controversée”. L’ancien ministre russe de l’économie Aleksei Koudrine a passé le message suivant sur &lt;em&gt;Twiter&lt;/em&gt;&amp;nbsp;: «&lt;em&gt;The EU and its regulators are responsible for the current situation on Cyprus. They have slipped up on it…&lt;/em&gt;» &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;• Plusieurs des responsables (?) les plus importants du Système ont réagi d’une façon assez semblable, en retirant leur responsabilité dans la décision spécifique du président chypriote ensuite repoussée par le Parlement. C’est le cas de l’Allemagne, notamment, pays évidemment perçu comme le premier inspirateur de toute politique activant l'opérationnalité de l'austérité que le Système impose à l’Europe. Le porte-parole du gouvernement allemand Steffen Seibert a observé&amp;nbsp;: «&lt;em&gt;How the country makes its contribution, how it makes the payments, is up to the Cyprus government. Germany could have imagined a different plan but it is not our decision…&lt;/em&gt;» Le ministre des finances allemand est plus rigide et plus discipliné par rapport à sa ligne, et par conséquent moins fuyant que les commentateurs politiques de son gouvernement&amp;nbsp;: il estime que si la décision n’est pas appliquée, «[t]&lt;em&gt;“hen the Cypriot banks will no longer be solvent, and Cyprus will be in a very difficult situation.&lt;/em&gt; […] &lt;em&gt;It can't be done any other way if we want to avoid insolvency…&lt;/em&gt;» &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;• Le principal accusé selon l’interprétation générale, celui qui aurait conduit “le raid” contre Chypre en imposant la mesure de prélèvement sur les comptes bancaires, c’est la &lt;em&gt;Troïka&lt;/em&gt; (Commission Européenne, Banque Centrale Européenne et FMI). Pourtant, certains membres de la fine équipe se défendent d’avoir imposé cette mesure spécifique, s’en tenant à l’affirmation de la seule exigence d’un programme de remboursement sur un terme très court, – explication de circonstance qu'on peut supposer plus ou moins faussaire, et surtout contribution notable à la confusion générale... Ainsi, le membre du Conseil d’Administration de la BCE Joerg Asmussen&amp;nbsp;: «[&lt;em&gt;The iniative was&lt;/em&gt;] &lt;em&gt;The Cyprus government's adjustment programme, not the Troika's or any other government’s. If Cyprus's president wants to change something in the structure of the levy on bank deposits, that's in his hands. He must simply make sure that the financing is intact…&lt;/em&gt;» &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;• Enfin, pour clore le florilège, encore quelques avis de spécialistes privés du domaine financier, qu’on retrouve à profusion dans les articles de presse&amp;nbsp;: «&lt;em&gt;If European policy makers were looking for a way to undermine the public trust that underpins the foundation of any banking system they could not have done a better job…&lt;/em&gt;» (Michael Hewson, analyste des maerchés à CMC Markets) «&lt;em&gt;In the medium term the decision taken regarding the loss on bank deposits could have major ramifications for the eurozone if the European debt crisis re-escalates.&lt;/em&gt;[…] &lt;em&gt;What I find most surprising is that they are prepared to take such a major gamble to save such a small amount of money.&lt;/em&gt;» (Gary Jenkins, directeur de la gestion à Swordfish Research.) &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; color: #c0c0c0; font-size: small;&quot;&gt;…Il est évident qu’on relève une exceptionnelle unanimité de commentateurs défavorables. Du côté de la langue de bois, on trouve les diverses potiches gouvernementales ou institutionnelles, qui cherchent à s’en laver les mains, avec les habituelles exceptions teutonnes qui entendent montrer quelle discipline de fer ils sont capables de recommander. Du côté des commentateurs-Système, le déchaînement est général, avec l’accent mis aussi bien sur le caractère arbitraire et interventionniste qui heurte quelques fondements du catéchisme ultra-libéral, que sur l’aspect de l’ébranlement terrible de la pseudo-confiance qu’auraient encore les citoyens-consommateurs et les sacro-saints investisseurs dans la sécurité des organismes de dépôt du Système.
