对未来的恐惧使英国政治深陷于过去 | 拉斐尔·贝尔

当今英国的政治格局被一种深刻且令人衰弱的怀旧情绪所笼罩,这种状态与当下困扰好莱坞的创意停滞如出一辙。正如电影业退回到续集和翻拍的安全港——《疯狂动物城2》、《阿凡达:火与灰》——威斯敏斯特的领导层似乎也对未来感到麻痹,宁愿翻炒旧的政治剧本,也不愿创作新的篇章。基尔·斯塔默和雷切尔·里夫斯,尽管他们声称秉持务实现实主义,但在实践中却渴望一个已 irrevocably 消失的世界,他们的政策选择暴露了对新事物和未经验证事物的根深蒂固的恐惧。这不仅仅是战术上的胆怯;这是一种战略性的想象力失败,其根源深深植根于英国脱欧后、疫情后的国民心理中。政治阶层,就像厌恶风险的电影公司高管一样,已经得出结论:新故事是危险的。更安全的做法是重述熟悉的故事,即使观众已经对情节感到厌倦,且背景与当代现实几乎不符。我们可以直接与1970年代末进行历史类比,当时两大主要政党都陷入了一种精疲力竭的共识,直到撒切尔主义的冲击强行打破了这种叙事循环。如今,外部冲击——气候紧迫性、地缘政治重组、人工智能革命——甚至更为严峻,然而回应却是管理式衰落,而非远见卓识的适应。来自各领域的专家评论,从经济历史学家到行为心理学家,都指向一种集体的认知失调:一方面认识到变革性的变化,另一方面却退回到令人安慰但过时的解决方案中。这种智力麻痹的后果是严重的。它导致了一种小目标政治,其雄心壮志由那些被认为立即可接受的东西来定义,而非必要的东西,这使得国家对未来几十年准备不足。例如,工党领导层谨慎的财政规则,不应被视为审慎的经济学,而应被视为一种心理壁垒,用以抵御公共投资领域真正创新所带来的可怕不确定性。这一分析表明,英国正困于自己制造的丘吉尔式“黑狗”之中,将过去的阴影误认为未来的实质。除非出现一位愿意拥抱原创思想的政治风险的领导者——去书写新篇章,而非为旧篇章做注脚——否则,正如专栏作家所观察到的,这个国家将可悲地困在叙事循环中,看着重播,而世界却在继续前进。.
