Odifreddi reflects on the West’s arrogance and invites us not to ease our consciences by the illusion that, perhaps, others may even be worse than us.
Like many Italians born after the war, Piergiorgio Odifreddi grew up in the myth of the United States. With less and less surprise, he realises how the United States has always lorded it over us: economic exploitation, trade embargo, military occupation.
