The negative outcome of the elections in Poland for the European Union

The result of the Polish elections must become a warning signal can review the policy of the European Union in it. It is not just a result that is of political importance, but also a sociological fact relevant, depending on which study the possible future of European society. Poland will be guided, with an absolute majority, a nationalist formation of Catholic, deeply conservative and therefore not inclined to absorb those changes, especially ethnic, that are forming on their own in the old continent. The choice of the Poles take the direction of closing the borders and can not even promote relations with other European states. It was a vote where the instincts and fears of the electorate older, less educated and more closed to anything new has prevailed, ousting a left, although social democratic, by the national parliament. It has also been a profoundly selfish vote, by a country that has seen its economy grow by double-digit rates, thanks to the aid of the European Union. This economic growth does not seem to be served at a openness to Polish voters, who want a different treatment for new migrants than older, who were nothing but themselves. In the relatively short time that has elapsed since the Poles had the need to emigrate to now, it appears to change the perceptions of the people of Poland, or rather, there was a desire for preservation of privileges in stark contrast with the simple consistency and Catholic morality who claim to be inspired. The author of this success is the leader of the Catholic nationalist Jaroslaw Kaczynski, who was able to bring out that feeling traditionalist always very present in the country. It is no coincidence that the electoral victory of this training came in conjunction with the wave of migration that affected the countries of Eastern Europe, emphasizing the utilitarian accession of these countries to the European Union and not the one that would appear a necessary sharing European values. The result seems to herald what the Polish part-European and progressive European Union seems to be afraid: the populist wave able to stop the direction towards a European political union. In truth, there are substantial differences with the situation of Eastern Europe than in Western countries and the founders of the Union; while in the latter's refusal to Brussels comes from an invasion of the European Union in the economies of individual countries, which resulted in a significant deterioration of the living conditions of populations in the eastern states of the continent the statements of formation of the right, that is refer to an unspecified, preservation of the Christian identity of nations, it appears to be due to a desire for closure to the outside, that can allow the continuation of its privileges. Brussels will have significant problems in dealing with these governments, like the story of migrants has amply demonstrated. The lack of a widespread culture of the founding values ​​of the European Union, not only absent in the population, but especially in the ruling classes, will lead to more and more complications in the formulations of the Community provisions and their application, making the process of unification increasingly complex. But with the current unitary composition, in addition to the case of the East, we must consider the British position, and the aforementioned skepticism of Western countries, the possibility of the fulfillment of the political union seems more and more remote, if not attended by the new provisions concerning the characteristics necessary for the maintenance of the status of EU member; without a profound revision of the treaties narrowly, the present composition appears destined for a dissolution caused by having too many opposing forces, which the union away from its founding principles, laying the foundation or its order or to a survival linked only themes insufficient to generate an effective European Union.
