Between Pontiffs and Engineers of the Abyss
Paulo Nassar
In the contemporary geopolitical landscape, where interdependence should unite us, we once again witness the rise of invisible—but profoundly real—walls.
Economic tariffs multiply like trenches raised against the spirit of cooperation. Instead of opening markets, we open wounds. Instead of promoting fair trade, we fuel fear of the other.
The logic of wild protectionism hides the resurgence of an old figure: the bridge destroyer. He wears the suit of a head of state but acts as an architect of the abyss. He dismantles agreements, sabotages multilateral organizations, and imposes tariffs not as instruments of balance, but as weapons of intimidation.
