Election Day: Dennis Redmont on “Radio Vaticana”
Tuesday, November 6th, 2012 | Radio & TV | Comments Off on Election Day: Dennis Redmont on “Radio Vaticana”
Dennis Redmont was interviewed by Radio Vaticana about the US Presidential Election, the high technological standard of the campaign and the conflicted political landscape in America.
Regarding the first theme, Redmont was struck by the high technical level of observation performed by the average American voter:
The level of specificity deployed by the media to understand the voter’s behavior and mindset is so advanced that it is possible to know, for instance, which car brand an average Republican voter prefers, as electoral and commercial data intertwine and can be drawn on their profile. Hence, this kind of targeting enables for a wider and deeper understanding of voters’ behavior.
Secondly, Redmont believes the U.S. will remain politically divided regardless of the election result:
The U.S. will remain split no matter who wins the elections, as the opposition party would block any sort of legislative decision. For example, if the front-runner, Obama, would win, the Congress and probably also the Senate would nevertheless have a Republican majority. Therefore, the first couple of months, even before the end Obama’s official term – which occurs next January – will prove if the U.S. can deal with such crises like the deficit. It’s a big question mark, also because the loser will have to face a showdown and either the conservative or the democratic faction will be forced to find a compromise… I’m not at all optimistic!

9/11 : 10 YEARS LATER
Sunday, September 18th, 2011 | Radio & TV | Comments Off on 9/11 : 10 YEARS LATER
On the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on the twin towers, Dennis Redmont asks: what has changed?
In an interview with Sky TG24 on the 10th anniversary of the attacks on the twin towers, Dennis Redmont gave his analysis of the consequences of the tragic events of September 11, 2001.
Despite the ongoing war in Afghanistan, the West feels safer after the death of Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden. But has the threat of international terrorism truly gone away?
Redmont explained that though there are still active terrorist cells in existence, the threat they pose has diminished. After the bombings in Madrid and London there have been no verified attempts to launch terrorist attacks in the West: this in itself shows that the level of security is much higher than in previous years.
He concluded that attention should now be focused not on the threat of international terrorism but on the problem of a world economy in crisis.
