CRÓNICA, 13 Não consigo pensar em termos de utopias. Aliás, a palavra provoca-me urticária. Faz-me pensar em coisas dos anos sessenta, que geralmente me provocam um bocejo de enfado, ou em projetos revolucionários, homens novos e toda a espécie de transformações do mundo por decreto. Ná. Claro que também não consigo pensar em termos de "não há nada a fazer" ou "as coisas são o que são". Correndo o risco de parecer aborrecido e confortável e cosy, como numa imagem retirada de algum catálogo IKEA, sou dos que acham que as melhores experiências, e com os melhores resultados, de melhoria da condição humana coletiva foram feitas pelas social-democracias escandinavas. Acontece que entretanto duas coisas aconteceram - e estão relacionadas. Eu continuo a não crer em, nem a querer, utopias, messianismos, ou revoluções por decreto. Mas a crise atual é o absoluto oposto disso.

Finland’s Next Laws To Emerge From Online Crowdsourced Proposals Why isn’t that a law? You may have muttered this phrase or heard someone else say it out of frustration, but chances are that question has popped up in conversation in one form or another. It’s the universal plight of citizens to feel underrepresented by their government, expressing their frustration at what is and isn’t legal. Case in point: Finland now allows citizens to propose new laws online, and if an initiative gathers enough votes, the government must vote on it. This year, Finland has taken two huge steps to make crowdsourced laws a reality. The cofounder of Open Ministry Joonas Pekkanen explained that ”The citizens initiative can be either of two formats. The legislation creating Parliament in Finland (seen here from above) is now more accessible to citizens than ever. What’s great about this new system is that only 50,000 people need to back an initiative for government officials to consider it. A Google translated version of Finland’s Open Ministry platform

Golden Dawn is a neonazi organization, upgraded to a crowd-pleasing political party by riding on the wave of popular discontent with the established political system In response to this rising popularity, the principals of Golden Dawn have made some effort recently to disguise the nature of their party.
