Al país de los baskos se le llama de muy diversas maneras: País Vasco, Vasconia, Baskonia, País Vasconavarro, Navarra, Euskadi o Euskal Herria, con sus adecuaciones a los diferentes idiomas. Un abanico de nombres muy sugerente pero poco util para la identificacion inequivoca del pais.A ellos hay que añadir los utilizados oficialmente para denominar las tres diferentes administraciones que se asientan en su ambito antropologico cultural. La Comunidad Foral de Navarra, la Comunidad Autonoma del Pais Vasco o Comunidad Autonoma de Euskadi denominada tambien Comunidad Autonoma Vasca y la Communaute d aglomeration Pays Basque. A todas ellas hay que agregar sus usos en euskara y los respectivos acronimos.Para profundizar en la confusion, se le suma tambien la acepcion en ingles Basque Country, cada dia utilizada con mayor profusion y, que muchas veces, se emplea en la forma Euskadi-Basque Country.Desde que en 2017 publique el libro: Vasco, como se llama tu pais, la sensibilidad sobre la necesidad de ordenar este tema del denominativo ha ido en ascenso.Este libro propone tratar el tema con cierto orden y vision de 360 grados. Describe los despropositos que la situacion supone, estudia como otros paises lo han solucionado, narra el discurrir de sus nombres a traves de la historia, asi como su evolucion linguistica y, sobre todo, desarrolla un modelo de analisis sociologico que evalua cuantos aspectos son importantes para que un denominativo funcione, lo que le permite seleccionar el nombre de forma metodica para, por ultimo, optar por una propuesta de uso real y practica.En suma, se presenta una solucion razonada y realista, que supone una alternativa coherente al problema del nombre del pais.

El tiempo apremia. Los desafíos a los que nos enfrentamos son serios y la plutocracia nos complica la vida. Es la era de los Leviatanes desencadenados. Julio Puente sigue reflexionando sobre las mejores soluciones para nuestros acuciantes problemas. Ya hablemos del cambio climatico o de las olas tecnologicas que vienen, de las enormes e injustas desigualdades economicas o de la democracia menguante, todo va a depender de la actitud y conviccion con la que solidariamente abordemos estos problemas. En este sentido, un cristianismo mal entendido no parece haber ayudado mucho en Occidente. El lema del dolar estadounidense En Dios confiamos se ha convertido, en el capitalismo sin etica, en Dios confia en nuestro dolar.Cambio de rumbo nos ofrece la vision que tienen algunos de los mejores expertos mundiales sobre estos temas y nos hace ver la necesidad de un cambio de mentalidad si queremos tomar las decisiones correctas. El neoliberalismo desatado, que socava la democracia y crea desigualdad economica y desigualdad politica, se ha hecho insostenible, como muestran Stiglitz, Zucman, Acemoglu, Robinson, Johnson, Zuboff, Cortina, Harari, Marina, Suleyman, Gabriel y otros muchos expertos. No hay mas alternativa que un cambio radical, dice Stiglitz. Interesa que ese cambio se haga en la buena direccion.
