"Democracies suffer not only from their slow reaction time at moments of crisis, but also from the difficulty that they face in projecting themselves into the future and planning for the long term. On both sides of the Atlantic, political leaders know what they must do for their countries, but do not know how to get re-elected if they actually do it. They seem to be structurally condemned to short-termism."
Dominique Moïsi, on the difficulties for democracies to respond to crises. (via europeanvoice)
