It's easy to see why, especially for those who have suffered dislocation and anomie under liberal democracy, orderism is appealing. But just as the utopian promises of Communism were merely a fig leaf for tyranny, the official face of orderism hides something much darker. Order is attractive only until it stifles, and then represses. Unchecked autocrats turn on the weakest and most vulnerable as scapegoats, and lash out in foreign misadventures to divert attention from problems at home. Society breaks down; fear reigns. Orderism ultimately fails to deliver on its own promises.
不难看出秩序主义为何散发着吸引力,尤其是对那些在自由民主制度下遭受了混乱与沉沦的人而言。然而,正如共产主义的乌托邦诺言不过是暴政的遮羞布,秩序主义的堂皇外表之下隐藏着黑暗得多的东西。在它令人窒息,继而施加压迫之前,秩序都很吸引人。不加约束的独裁者让最卑微、最脆弱的人冲当替罪羊,通过义愤填膺地展开海外冒险行动来转移对国内问题的注意力。社会分崩离析;恐惧滋生开来。秩序主义最终并不能兑现自身的诺言。

The initial proposal to impose a one-time tax on accounts holding less than €100,000 came not from the European Union or from Germany, but from the Cypriot government, which must have known that it was likely to generate outrage, and that the Cypriot parliament would never vote for it. Perhaps the government believed that mass protests - with placards denouncing the EU as a fig leaf for revived German domination of Europe - would strengthen its hand.
对10万欧元以下银行存款也实施一次性征税的提议,最初并不是欧盟或德国提出的,而是塞浦路斯政府的主意,后者当初就肯定知道这一方案会使舆论大哗,而塞议会也绝不会批准它。也许塞政府认为,群众抗议反倒可以给自己撑腰,让自己对外强硬起来 - 君不见,抗议者高举牌子,说欧盟只不过是德国重新主宰欧洲的遮羞布而已?毕竟,看到德国和欧盟盛气凌人地对他们这个小小岛国指手画脚,就连最温和的塞浦路斯人也会气不打一处来。
