Recent and sad, events in Grémio Lisbonense made me think of how the political myopia often do not understand something that is essential: a city does not live only for offices, businesses, condominiums, trade. Vive, too, the dynamism of the culture that inspires.
The economic culture
Recent and sad, events in Grémio Lisbonense made me think of how the political myopia often do not understand something that is essential: a city does not live only for offices, businesses, condominiums, trade. Vive, too, the dynamism of the culture that inspires. A recent book, "The Warhol Economy," by Elizabeth Currid, shows how New York owes much to the fashion, art and music. One sector that is not as important economically as Wall Street, it is not far away. Andy Warhol showed how the art can be an economic engine, not just through things that are popular. It is the mixture of various "inputs" that the various creative (even financial) of a city is. It is not only a popular culture that is more important (after all why the Parque Mayer is, for example, more important than discussing the future and the present of the Botanical Garden - only for party-political reasons?). The cultural tolerance in New York has caused, for example, many of the tables there painted by formerly marginal farmers, were now works for investment insurance (see the collection Berardo). And that, Paolo Costa, look a little to this question?
The fascination of Europe
A study of Hill & Knowlton, on the aspirations of students of MBA courses, shows that 80% of them seeking opportunities in the old Europe. Against that seek 76% in North America and 30% in Asia. It is a curious number. Especially when apregoa both, in our scenes, the fascination for the American company.
Questionar Kosovo
The Americans never the hidden, in its glorious crusade against Serbia: the sooner Kosovo to be independent, so much the better. The European Union remains on the matter, to have the same policy that over the entry of Turkey in the community: the days pairs are in favour and the odds are against. But it seems that no one thinks of fire in the fuse that the independence of Kosovo may lead to a fire that could bring the whole of Europe on fire. Not admiraria that the Republica Srpska ask the independence of Bosnia-Herzegovina. That, with Russian support, Abkhazia and South Ossetia wants to get rid of Georgia. And that, more day, less day, the Corsica yelling independence against France or the Basque Country and Catalonia say they do not want as capital Madrid. The Americans say that the independence of Kosovo will bring stability to the Balkans. Gives desire to laugh, if the matter was not so serious. The Balkans have always been the hell European unity. And the independent Kosovo is an allegory: Need of the troops of NATO, to increase exports (which cover only 6% of imports) and solve unemployment (between 40 and 60%). In Portugal, of course, nobody repairs in the sensitivity of the issue. After all no longer lideramos the EU and the Treaty of Lisbon already reaches as glory?
Goodbye Henri
Died Henri Salvador, one of the great singers of the French language that began to discover in its last phase, in which interpreted themes of Benjamin Biolay or Karen Ann. I remember one, at random, beautiful: "J'ai Vu." Where sing: "J'ai Vu / Tant de tant de mers rivages / Tant of ciels of paysages / j'ai vu / Tant d'escales et tant de ports." I had 90 years. A life of nomadic. Because only a few have the privilege to have.
New concept of business
The record industry and, in some way, the film, continues to look under the bed your ghost, which call away "piracy". For them the evil industry is not the lack of new talent, the lack of multinationals on the new digital world. Não, são os “piratas”. The Midem 2008 showed that the problem of the sector, or downfalls vertiginosas sales of CDs each year, have to do with something simple: the publishers do not understand the world of the Internet and "download" free songs. Ted Cohen, who was the EMI and today is a consultant in this area, hit the nail on the head: "We must be different, not protect the music but monetarizá it, not harass consumers but serve them. Already it is not sharing music files but to discover the music. " Now there's a new definition of business in the global world of digitalization that some empedernidos in these and in other sectors, not yet realized
