Without intending to add to the chatter taking place these past weeks about the “old” and the “new” in politics, I feel I should state the following:
“Always in history, the ‘new’ is built in opposition to the ‘old’ and is imbued and marked by new ideas, new political perspectives, new political ethics, new forms of collectivity and, of course, new political figures, with a deep consciousness of their responsibilities and duties towards the nation and a high sense of public interest.
In short: the (political) new is not self – declared. When it emerges, it is recognized”
