How fear drives American politics | David Rothkopf | TED Talks

Prevoditelj: Dora Ustulica Recezent: Sonja Žarić

What I'd like to do is talk to you a little bit about fear

Ono što želim ovdje je malo popričati s vama o strahu,

and the cost of fear

i cijeni straha,

and the age of fear from which we are now emerging.

i razdoblju straha iz kojeg sada isplovljavamo.

I would like you to feel comfortable with my doing that

Želim da se osjećate ugodno što to činim,

by letting you know that I know something about fear and anxiety.

kad vam dam do znanja da znam ponešto o strahu i tjeskobi.

I'm a Jewish guy from New Jersey.

Židov sam iz New Jerseyja.

(Laughter)

(smijeh)

I could worry before I could walk.

Brinuo sam prije nego što sam prohodao.

(Laughter)

(smijeh)

Please, applaud that.

Molim vas, zaplješčite tome.

(Applause)

(pljesak)

Thank you.

Hvala.

But I also grew up in a time where there was something to fear.

Ali sam također odrastao u razdoblju kad je strah bio opravdan.

We were brought out in the hall when I was a little kid

Doveli su nas hodnik kad sam bio malo dijete

and taught how to put our coats over our heads

i naučili nas kako da stavimo kaput preko glave

to protect us from global thermonuclear war.

da se zaštitimo od svjetskog termonuklearnog rata.

Now even my seven-year-old brain knew that wasn't going to work.

Čak je i moj sedmogodišnji mozak znao da to neće funkcionirati.

But I also knew

Ali sam također znao

that global thermonuclear war was something to be concerned with.

da je svjetski termonuklearni rat nešto oko čega trebamo biti zabrinuti.

And yet, despite the fact that we lived for 50 years

I iako smo živjeli 50 godina

with the threat of such a war,

s prijetnjom takvog rata,

the response of our government and of our society

odgovor naše vlade i našeg društva

was to do wonderful things.

je bio raditi divne stvari.

We created the space program in response to that.

Kreirali smo svemirski program kao odgovor na to.

We built our highway system in response to that.

Izgradili smo sustav autocesta kao odgovor na to.

We created the Internet in response to that.

Stvorili smo internet kao odgovor na to.

So sometimes fear can produce a constructive response.

Tako da strah nekada može proizvesti konstruktivni odgovor.

But sometimes it can produce an un-constructive response.

Ali nekada može priozvesti nekonstruktivni odgovor.

On September 11, 2001,

11. rujna 2001.,

19 guys took over four airplanes

19 mladića je otelo četiri zrakoplova

and flew them into a couple of buildings.

i zabilo se njima u par zgrada.

They exacted a horrible toll.

Iznudili su užasan danak.

It is not for us to minimize what that toll was.

Nije na nama da umanjimo što je bio danak.

But the response that we had was clearly disproportionate --

Ali odgovor koji smo imali je bio očito neproporcionalan --

disproportionate to the point of verging on the unhinged.

neproporcionalan do točke koja graniči sa poremećenim.

We rearranged the national security apparatus of the United States

Restrukturirali smo aparat nacionalne sigurnosti SAD-a

and of many governments

i mnogih vlada

to address a threat that, at the time that those attacks took place,

da bismo odgovorili na prijetnju, koja je u vrijeme kad su se napadi dogodili

was quite limited.

bila dosta ograničena.

In fact, according to our intelligence services,

Zapravo, prema izvještaju naših obavještajnih službi,

on September 11, 2001,

11. rujna 2001.

there were 100 members of core Al-Qaeda.

postojalo je 100 članova jezgre Al-Qaeda-e.

There were just a few thousand terrorists.

Bilo je samo par tisuća terorista.

They posed an existential threat

Oni nikome nisu predstavljali

to no one.

egzistencijalnu prijetnju.

But we rearranged our entire national security apparatus

Ali mi smo reorganizirali naš cijeli aparat nacionalne sigurnosti

in the most sweeping way since the end of the Second World War.

na najobuhvatniji način od kraja Drugog svjetskog rata.

We launched two wars.

Pokrenuli smo dva rata.

We spent trillions of dollars.

Potrošili smo trilijune dolara.

We suspended our values.

Zanemarili smo svoje vrijednosti.

We violated international law.

Prekršili smo međunarodno pravo.

We embraced torture.

Prihvatili smo mučenje.

We embraced the idea

Prihvatili smo ideju,

that if these 19 guys could do this, anybody could do it.

da ako je tih 19 mladića to moglo, svatko to može.

And therefore, for the first time in history,

I zato, prvi put u povijesti

we were seeing everybody as a threat.

smo svakoga vidjeli kao prijetnju.

And what was the result of that?

I koji je bio rezultat toga?

Surveillance programs that listened in on the emails and phone calls

Programi praćenja e-mailova, prisluškivanje telefonskih poziva

of entire countries --

cijelih država --

hundreds of millions of people --

stotine miljuna ljudi --

setting aside whether those countries were our allies,

stavljajući na stranu jesu li nam te zemlje saveznici,

setting aside what our interests were.

stavljajući na stranu koji su naši interesi.

I would argue that 15 years later,

Usudio bih se reći da 15 godina kasnije,

since today there are more terrorists,

jer danas ima više terorista,

more terrorist attacks, more terrorist casualties --

više terorističkih napada, više žrtava terorizma --

this by the count of the U.S. State Department --

ovo su podaci američkog Ministarstva vanjskih poslova --

since today the region from which those attacks emanate

s obzirom da je danas regija iz koje ti napadi proizlaze

is more unstable than at any time in its history,

nestabilnija nego ikad prije,

since the Flood, perhaps,

od Velikog potopa, možda,

we have not succeeded in our response.

nismo uspjeli u našem odgovoru.

Now you have to ask, where did we go wrong?

Sigurno se pitate, gdje smo pogriješili?

What did we do? What was the mistake that was made?

Što smo napravili? Koju pogrešku smo počinili?

And you might say, well look, Washington is a dysfunctional place.

I možete reći, čujte, Washington je disfunkcionalno mjesto.

There are political food fights.

Tamo se odvijaju političke borbe.

We've turned our discourse into a cage match.

Pretvorili smo naš govor u borbe u kavezu.

And that's true.

I to je istina.

But there are bigger problems, believe it or not, than that dysfunction,

Ali postoje veći problemi, vjerovali ili ne, od te disfunkcionalnosti,

even though I would argue

iako bih rekao

that dysfunction that makes it impossible to get anything done

da je disfunkcionalnost koja čini nemogućim išta učiniti

in the richest and most powerful country in the world

u najbogatijoj i najmoćnijoj zemlji svijeta

is far more dangerous than anything that a group like ISIS could do,

puno opasnija od bilo čega što grupe poput ISIS-a mogu,

because it stops us in our tracks and it keeps us from progress.

zato što nas zaustavlja i spriječava u napretku.

But there are other problems.

Ali ima i drugih problema.

And the other problems

I drugi problemi

came from the fact that in Washington and in many capitals right now,

su proizašli iz činjenice da smo u Washingtonu i mnogim drugim glavnim gradovima

we're in a creativity crisis.

u krizi kreativnosti.

In Washington, in think tanks,

U Washingtonu, u think tankovima,

where people are supposed to be thinking of new ideas,

gdje bi ljudi trebali razmišljati o novim idejama,

you don't get bold new ideas,

ne dobivate hrabre nove ideje,

because if you offer up a bold new idea,

jer ako ponudite hrabru novu ideju,

not only are you attacked on Twitter,

ne samo da vas napadnu na Twitteru,

but you will not get confirmed in a government job.

nego vas neće ni potvrditi u vladinom poslu.

Because we are reactive to the heightened venom of the political debate,

Zato što smo reaktivni na povišen otrov političke debate,

you get governments that have an us-versus-them mentality,

dobivamo vlade koje imaju mentalitet mi-protiv-njih,

tiny groups of people making decisions.

mala grupa ljudi koja donosi odluke.

When you sit in a room with a small group of people making decisions,

Kada sjednete u sobu s malom grupom ljudi koji donose odluke,

what do you get?

što dobijete?

You get groupthink.

Dobijete grupno razmišljanje.

Everybody has the same worldview,

Svi imaju isti pogled na svijet

and any view from outside of the group is seen as a threat.

i svaki pogled izvan grupe je protumačen kao prijetnja.

That's a danger.

To je opasnost.

You also have processes that become reactive to news cycles.

Također imate procese koji postaju reaktivni na cikluse novosti.

And so the parts of the U.S. government that do foresight, that look forward,

I tako dijelovi američke vlade koji rade predviđanja, koji gledaju naprijed,

that do strategy --

koji razvijaju strategiju --

the parts in other governments that do this -- can't do it,

dijelovi drugih vlada koji to čine -- ne mogu to činiti,

because they're reacting to the news cycle.

jer reagiraju na ciklus novosti.

And so we're not looking ahead.

I tako ne gledamo naprijed.

On 9/11, we had a crisis because we were looking the wrong way.

11.9. smo imali krizu, jer smo gledali u krivom smjeru.

Today we have a crisis because, because of 9/11,

Danas imamo krizu zbog 11.9.,

we are still looking in the wrong direction,

još uvijek gledamo u krivom smjeru

and we know because we see transformational trends on the horizon

i znamo, jer vidimo transformacijske trendove na horizontu

that are far more important than what we saw on 9/11;

koji su daleko važniji od onog što smo vidjeli 11.9.;

far more important than the threat posed by these terrorists;

daleko važniji od prijetnje koju predstavljaju teroristi;

far more important even than the instability that we've got

daleko važniji čak i od nestabilnosti koju imamo

in some areas of the world that are racked by instability today.

u nekim dijelovima svijeta koji su danas mučeni nestabilnošću.

In fact, the things that we are seeing in those parts of the world

Zapravo, stvari koje vidimo u tim dijelovima svijeta

may be symptoms.

bi mogle biti simptomi.

They may be a reaction to bigger trends.

Mogle bi biti reakcija na veće trendove.

And if we are treating the symptom and ignoring the bigger trend,

I ako tretiramo simptome, a ignoriramo veći trend,

then we've got far bigger problems to deal with.

onda imamo mnogo veće probleme s kojima se trebamo baviti.

And so what are those trends?

Što su, dakle,ti trendovi?

Well, to a group like you,

Pa, grupi poput vas

the trends are apparent.

trendovi su očiti.

We are living at a moment in which the very fabric of human society

Živimo u trenutku u kojem se sama osnova ljudskog društva

is being rewoven.

ponovo tkuje.

If you saw the cover of The Economist a couple of days ago --

Ako ste vidjeli naslovnicu The Economista prije par dana --

it said that 80 percent of the people on the planet,

pisalo je da će 80 posto ljudi na planetu

by the year 2020, would have a smartphone.

do 2020. godine imati pametni telefon.

They would have a small computer connected to the Internet in their pocket.

Imat će malo računalo povezano na internet u svom džepu.

In most of Africa, the cell phone penetration rate is 80 percent.

U većini Afrike, porast broja mobitela je 80 posto.

We passed the point last October

Shvatili smo to prošlog listopada

when there were more mobile cellular devices, SIM cards,

kada je bilo više mobilnih uređaja, SIM kartica,

out in the world than there were people.

na svijetu, nego što je bilo ljudi.

We are within years of a profound moment in our history,

Živimo u godinama iznimno važnog trenutka u našoj povijesti,

when effectively every single human being on the planet

kada će svako ljudsko biće na planetu

is going to be part of a man-made system for the first time,

biti dio sustava koji je stvorio čovjek po prvi put,

able to touch anyone else --

u mogućnosti dodirnuti bilo koga --

touch them for good, touch them for ill.

dodirnuti ih u dobro, dodirnuti ih u zlo.

And the changes associated with that are changing the very nature

I promjene povezane s tim mijenjaju samu prirodu

of every aspect of governance and life on the planet

svakog aspekta vladanja i života na planetu,

in ways that our leaders ought to be thinking about,

na način o kojem bi naši vođe trebali razmišljati

when they're thinking about these immediate threats.

kada razmišljaju o tim neposrednim prijetnjama.

On the security side,

Sa sigurnosne strane,

we've come out of a Cold War in which it was too costly to fight a nuclear war,

izašli smo iz Hladnog rata u kojem je bilo preskupo voditi nuklearni rat,

and so we didn't,

pa ga onda nismo vodili,

to a period that I call Cool War, cyber war,

i ušli u razdoblje koje zovem Cool rat, kibernetički rat,

where the costs of conflict are actually so low, that we may never stop.

u kojem su cijene ratovanja zapravo tako male, da možda nikad ne prestanemo.

We may enter a period of constant warfare,

Mogli bismo ući u razdoblje konstantnog ratovanja,

and we know this because we've been in it for several years.

a to znamo, jer smo u tome već nekoliko godina.

And yet, we don't have the basic doctrines to guide us in this regard.

A ipak, nemamo osnovne doktrine da nas vode kroz to.

We don't have the basic ideas formulated.

Nemamo formulirane osnovne ideje.

If someone attacks us with a cyber attack,

Ako nas netko napadne kibernetički,

do have the ability to respond with a kinetic attack?

imamo li mogućnost odgovoriti kinetičkim napadom?

We don't know.

Ne znamo.

If somebody launches a cyber attack, how do we deter them?

Ako netko započne kibernetički napad, kako ga zaustavimo?

When China launched a series of cyber attacks,

Kada je Kina započela seriju kibernetičkih napada,

what did the U.S. government do?

što je napravila američka vlada?

It said, we're going to indict a few of these Chinese guys,

Rekli su, optužit ćemo par Kineza,

who are never coming to America.

koji više nikada neće doći u Ameriku.

They're never going to be anywhere near a law enforcement officer

Oni nikada neće biti blizu nekog službenika koji provodi zakon,

who's going to take them into custody.

koji će ih uhititi.

It's a gesture -- it's not a deterrent.

To je gesta -- ne sredstvo zastrašivanja.

Special forces operators out there in the field today

Pripadnici specijalnih snaga koji su danas na terenu

discover that small groups of insurgents with cell phones

otkrivaju da male grupe pobunjenika s mobitelima

have access to satellite imagery that once only superpowers had.

imaju pristup satelitskim slikama koje su nekad imale samo supersile.

In fact, if you've got a cell phone,

Zapravo, ako imate mobitel,

you've got access to power that a superpower didn't have,

imate pristup moći kakvu supersila nije imala,

and would have highly classified 10 years ago.

i koja bi bila strogo zaštićena prije 10 godina.

In my cell phone, I have an app that tells me

U svom mobitelu imam aplikaciju koja mi pokazuje

where every plane in the world is, and its altitude, and its speed,

gdje je svaki avion na svijetu, njegovu visinu, njegovu brzinu,

and what kind of aircraft it is,

vrstu letjelice,

and where it's going and where it's landing.

kamo ide, gdje će sletjeti.

They have apps that allow them to know

Imaju aplikacije koje im omogućavaju

what their adversary is about to do.

da saznaju na što se sprema protivnik.

They're using these tools in new ways.

Koriste te alate na nov način.

When a cafe in Sydney was taken over by a terrorist,

Kada je kafić u Sydneyju zauzeo terorist,

he went in with a rifle...

ušao je s puškom...

and an iPad.

i iPadom.

And the weapon was the iPad.

I oružje je bio iPad.

Because he captured people, he terrorized them,

Zato što je zarobio ljude, terorizirao ih,

he pointed the iPad at them,

u njih uperio iPad,

and then he took the video and he put it on the Internet,

i onda ih snimio i stavio to na internet,

and he took over the world's media.

tako osvojivši svjetske medije.

But it doesn't just affect the security side.

Ali to ne utječe samo na sigurnosnu stranu.

The relations between great powers --

Odnosi između velikih sila --

we thought we were past the bipolar era.

mislili smo da smo prerasli bipolarno razdoblje.

We thought we were in a unipolar world,

Mislili smo da smo u unipolarnom svijetu

where all the big issues were resolved.

gdje se svi veliki problemi riješavaju.

Remember? It was the end of history.

Sjećate se? Bio je to kraj povijesti.

But we're not.

Ali nije tako.

We're now seeing that our basic assumptions about the Internet --

Sada vidimo da naše osnovne pretpostavke o internetu --

that it was going to connect us, weave society together --

koji će nas povezati, satkati zajedničko društvo --

are not necessarily true.

nisu nužno točne.

In countries like China, you have the Great Firewall of China.

U zemljama poput Kine postoji Veliki kineski Firewall.

You've got countries saying no, if the Internet happens within our borders

Postoje zemlje koje kažu ne, ako se internet odvija u našim granicama,

we control it within our borders.

kontroliramo ga u našim granicama.

We control the content. We are going to control our security.

Kontroliramo sadržaj. Kontrolirat ćemo naše društvo.

We are going to manage that Internet.

Vodit ćemo internet.

We are going to say what can be on it.

Reći ćemo što se može nalaziti na njemu.

We're going to set a different set of rules.

Postavit ćemo drukčija pravila.

Now you might think, well, that's just China.

Možda sad mislite, pa, to je Kina.

But it's not just China.

Ali nije samo Kina.

It's China, India, Russia.

To su Indija, Kina, Rusija.

It's Saudi Arabia, it's Singapore, it's Brazil.

To su Saudijska Arabija, Singapur, Brazil.

After the NSA scandal, the Russians, the Chinese, the Indians, the Brazilians,

Nakon skandala NSA, Rusi, Kinezi, Indijci, Brazilci

they said, let's create a new Internet backbone,

su rekli, idemo prozvesti novu kralješnicu interneta,

because we can't be dependent on this other one.

jer ne možemo ovisiti o ovoj drugoj.

And so all of a sudden, what do you have?

I što se odjednom dogodilo?

You have a new bipolar world

Imamo novi bipolarni svijet

in which cyber-internationalism,

u kojem je kiber-internacionalizam,

our belief,

naša vjerovanje,

is challenged by cyber-nationalism,

u sukobu s kiber-nacionalizmom,

another belief.

drugim vjerovanjem.

We are seeing these changes everywhere we look.

Vidimo te promjene gdje god pogledamo.

We are seeing the advent of mobile money.

Vidimo dolazak mobilnog novca.

It's happening in the places you wouldn't expect.

Događa se u zemljama u kojima to ne biste očekivali.

It's happening in Kenya and Tanzania,

Događa se u Keniji i Tanzaniji,

where millions of people who haven't had access to financial services

gdje milijuni ljudi koji nisu imali pristup financijskim uslugama,

now conduct all those services on their phones.

sada sve te usluge vrše preko svojih telefona.

There are 2.5 million people who don't have financial service access

Postoji 2.5 milijuna ljudi koji nemaju pristup financijskim uslugama,

that are going to get it soon.

ali će ga ubrzo dobiti.

A billion of them are going to have the ability to access it

Njih milijarda će uskoro imati mogućnost pristupiti im

on their cell phone soon.

preko svojih mobitela.

It's not just going to give them the ability to bank.

To im neće dati samo mogućnost bankarstva.

It's going to change what monetary policy is.

To će promijeniti monetarnu politiku.

It's going to change what money is.

Promijenit će ono što novac jest.

Education is changing in the same way.

Obrazovanje se jednako tako mijenja.

Healthcare is changing in the same way.

Zdravstvo isto tako.

How government services are delivered is changing in the same way.

Način ispostave vladinih usluga također.

And yet, in Washington, we are debating

A ipak, u Washingtonu raspravljamo

whether to call the terrorist group that has taken over Syria and Iraq

trebamo li zvati terorističku grupu koja je zauzela Siriju i Irak

ISIS or ISIL or Islamic State.

ISIS ili ISIL ili Islamska država.

We are trying to determine

Pokušavamo odrediti

how much we want to give in a negotiation with the Iranians

koliko želimo dati u pregovorima s Irancima

on a nuclear deal which deals with the technologies of 50 years ago,

o nuklearnom sporazumu koji se bavi tehnologijama od prije 50 godina,

when in fact, we know that the Iranians right now are engaged in cyber war with us

iako zapravo znamo da su Iranci sada uključeni u kibernetički rat s nama

and we're ignoring it, partially because businesses are not willing

i mi to ignoriramo, djelomice zato što businessi nisu voljni

to talk about the attacks that are being waged on them.

pričati o napadima koji im se naplaćuju.

And that gets us to another breakdown

I to nas dovodi do još jednog rasula,

that's crucial,

koje je ključno,

and another breakdown that couldn't be more important to a group like this,

i još jednog rasula koji ne može biti važniji ovakvoj grupi,

because the growth of America and real American national security

jer rast Amerike i prava američka nacionalna sigurnost

and all of the things that drove progress even during the Cold War,

i sve stvari koje su vodile napredak čak i u godinama Hladnog rata,

was a public-private partnership between science, technology and government

je bilo javno-privatno partnerstvo znanosti, tehnologije i vlade

that began when Thomas Jefferson sat alone in his laboratory

koje je započelo kada je Thomas Jefferson sam sjedio u laboratoriju

inventing new things.

izumljujući nove stvari.

But it was the canals and railroads and telegraph;

Ali to su bili kanali, željezničke pruge, telegraf;

it was radar and the Internet.

to su bili radar i internet.

It was Tang, the breakfast drink --

To je bio Tang, jutarnje piće --

probably not the most important of those developments.

vjerojatno ne i najvažnije od ovih izuma.

But what you had was a partnership and a dialogue,

Ali ono što je postojalo su bili partnerstvo i dijalog,

and the dialogue has broken down.

a dijalog se raspao.

It's broken down because in Washington,

Raspao se, jer se u Washingtonu

less government is considered more.

manje vlada smatra više.

It's broken down because there is, believe it or not,

Raspao se, jer, vjerovali ili ne,

in Washington, a war on science --

u Wahingtonu, rat protiv znanosti --

despite the fact that in all of human history,

unatoč činjenici da u cjelokupnoj ljudskoj povijesti,

every time anyone has waged a war on science,

svaki put kad je netko započeo rat sa znanošću,

science has won.

znanost je pobijedila.

(Applause)

(pljesak)

But we have a government that doesn't want to listen,

Ali mi imao vladu koja ne želi slušati,

that doesn't have people at the highest levels

koja nema ljude na najvišim pozicijama

that understand this.

koji to razumiju.

In the nuclear age,

U nuklearnom razdoblju,

when there were people in senior national security jobs,

kada je bilo ljudi na višim poslovima nacionalne sigurnosti,

they were expected to speak throw-weight.

od njih se očekivalo da govore "težinom udara".

They were expected to know the lingo, the vocabulary.

Očekivalo se da znaju sleng, da znaju terminologiju.

If you went to the highest level of the U.S. government now

Da sada odete na najviše pozicije američke vlade

and said, "Talk to me about cyber, about neuroscience,

i kažete: "Pričajte mi o kibernetici, o neuroznanosti,

about the things that are going to change the world of tomorrow,"

o stvarima koje će promijeniti svijet sutrašnjice" ,

you'd get a blank stare.

dočekao bi vas prazan pogled.

I know, because when I wrote this book,

Znam to, jer, kad sam napisao knjigu,

I talked to 150 people, many from the science and tech side,

razgovorao sam sa 150 ljudi, od koji su mnogi bili sa znanstvene i tehnološke strane,

who felt like they were being shunted off to the kids' table.

koji su se osjećali kao da ih isključuju i šalju za dječji stol.

Meanwhile, on the tech side,

Za to vrijeme, na tehnološkoj strani,

we have lots of wonderful people creating wonderful things,

postoje mnogi predivni ljudi koji stvaraju predivne stvari,

but they started in garages and they didn't need the government

ali započeli su u garažama i nisu trebali vladu

and they don't want the government.

i nisu htjeli vladu.

Many of them have a political view that's somewhere between

Mnogi od njih imaju politički svjetonazor negdje između

libertarian and anarchic:

libertarijanskog i anarhističkog:

leave me alone.

pustite me na miru.

But the world's coming apart.

Ali svijet se raspada.

All of a sudden, there are going to be massive regulatory changes

Odjednom će započeti masovne regulatorne promjene

and massive issues associated with conflict

i masovni problemi povezani sa sukobom,

and massive issues associated with security and privacy.

i masovni problemi povezani sa sigurnošću i privatnošću.

And we haven't even gotten to the next set of issues,

I nismo čak došli do sljedeće skupine problema,

which are philosophical issues.

a to su filozofski problemi.

If you can't vote, if you can't have a job,

Ako ne možete glasati, ako ne možete imati posao,

if you can't bank, if you can't get health care,

ako ne možete bankariti, ako ne možete dobiti zdravstvenu skrb,

if you can't be educated without Internet access,

ako se ne možete obrazovati bez pristupa internetu,

is Internet access a fundamental right that should be written into constitutions?

je li pristup internetu osnovno pravo koje bi trebalo upisati u ustav?

If Internet access is a fundamental right,

Ako je pravo pristupa internetu osnovno pravo,

is electricity access for the 1.2 billion who don't have access to electricity

je li pristup električnoj energiji koji nema 1.2 milijarde ljudi

a fundamental right?

osnovno pravo?

These are fundamental issues. Where are the philosophers?

Ovo su osnovni problemi. Gdje su filozofi?

Where's the dialogue?

Gdje je dijalog?

And that brings me to the reason that I'm here.

I to me dovodi do razloga zašto sam ovdje.

I live in Washington. Pity me.

Živim u Washingtonu. Sažalite se nada mnom

(Laughter)

(smijeh)

The dialogue isn't happening there.

Tamo ne dolazi do dijaloga.

These big issues that will change the world,

Ovi veliki problemi koji će promijeniti svijet,

change national security, change economics,

promijeniti nacionalnu sigurnost, promijeniti ekonomiju,

create hope, create threats,

stvoriti nadu, stvoriti prijetnje,

can only be resolved when you bring together

se jedino mogu riješiti kada opet okupite

groups of people who understand science and technology

grupu ljudi koji razumiju znanost i tehnologiju

back together with government.

s vladom.

Both sides need each other.

Obje strane trebaju jedni druge.

And until we recreate that connection,

I sve dok opet ne uspostavimo tu vezu,

until we do what helped America grow and helped other countries grow,

dok ne napravimo ono što je pomoglo Americi i drugim zemljama da narastu,

then we are going to grow ever more vulnerable.

postajat ćemo sve ranjiviji.

The risks associated with 9/11 will not be measured

Rizik povezan s 11. 9. neće biti izmjeren

in terms of lives lost by terror attacks

izgubljenim životima,

or buildings destroyed or trillions of dollars spent.

uništenim zgradama, potrošenim trilijunima dolara.

They'll be measured in terms of the costs of our distraction from critical issues

Bit će izmjeren cijenom našeg odvraćanja pažnje od kritičnih problema

and our inability to get together

i našom nesposobnošću da okupimo

scientists, technologists, government leaders,

znanstvenike, tehničare, političke vođe

at a moment of transformation akin to the beginning of the Renaissance,

u trenutku transformacije koja je početak renesanse,

akin to the beginning of the major transformational eras

početak najvećeg razdoblja tranformacije

that have happened on Earth,

koje se ikad dogodilo na Zemlji,

and start coming up with, if not the right answers,

i da počnemo osmišljavati, ako već ne točne odgovore,

then at least the right questions.

onda barem prava pitanja.

We are not there yet,

Još to nismo dostigli,

but discussions like this and groups like you

ali ovakve rasprave i grupe poput vas

are the places where those questions can be formulated and posed.

su mjesta gdje se ta pitanja mogu formulirati i postaviti.

And that's why I believe that groups like TED,

I zato vjerujem da su grupe poput TED-a,

discussions like this around the planet,

ovakve rasprave diljem svijeta,

are the place where the future of foreign policy, of economic policy,

mjesta na kojima će stvoriti budućnost vanjskih poslova, ekonomske politike,

of social policy, of philosophy, will ultimately take place.

socijalne politike, filozofije.

And that's why it's been a pleasure speaking to you.

I zato mi je bio užitak pričati s vama.

Thank you very, very much.

Puno, puno vam hvala.

(Applause)
