ABSTRACT
Economic advisers tend to stress free competition, and generally try to minimize the role of the central state and other regional and urban authorities. Ever since 1980, things have happened in the formerly comprehensive welfare states of Western Europe that indicate a re-institutionalization of the Democratic Triangle. It stands to reason that the quest for values, norms, and meanings—broadly speaking: morality—occupies a central position in the decline of the welfare state and the re-institutionalization of the Democratic Triangle. The classic Marxist view of the market is that it is a capitalist institution and, as such, the main source of human misery and degradation. Naturally the various projects reaped mixed results. In general the streets and neighborhoods that began projects of Social Renewal benefited from them. Thus, culture in the strict sense consists of religion, law, arts, and sciences. As the history of Western democracy has demonstrated, the Ideological Triangle has been perverted time and again.
