There is arguably one unifying theme that links all these afflictions: proximity. Proximity is how close we are to the action and how that affects how we assess, relate to and address whatever that action happens to be. Almost every job requires a level of experience and training with the notable exception of the most powerful people in the country—our political class.

Solidarietà, empatia, simpatia, compassione: parole di cui oggi nel discorso pubblico e nel linguaggio della politica si è quasi persa traccia. E questo, proprio mentre milioni di uomini e donne chiedono aiuto attraversando mari e tribolazioni, e mentre la povertà e le diseguaglianze crescono anche nel mondo ricco.
