That sinking feeling - again

Article Abstract:

Italians find it very hard to decide how to protect Venice, Italy, from flooding. This is largely because of the very complex nature of Italian politics. Sea defences have become a controversial political issue, and this means that no progress has been made, in sharp contrast with other countries. It is clear that the Venice lagoon must be carefully protected, but it is also necessary to accept that environmental conditions are changing and that new steps must be taken to protect Venice.

Article Abstract:

Reflections on the state of European culture are presented. It is suggested that Europe is an agglomeration of many different cultures, giving it a similar structure to a library. Europe's survival can be attributed to a small number of great people who were capable of balancing nationalism with globalization.
