English to Greek: How liberalism became ‘the god that failed’ in eastern Europe General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Government / Politics
Source text - English In the spring of 1990, John Feffer, a 26-year-old American, spent several months criss-crossing eastern Europe in hope of unlocking the mystery of its post-communist future and writing a book about the historical transformation unfolding before his eyes. He was no expert, so instead of testing theories, he buttonholed as many people from as many walks of life as possible. The contradictions he encountered were fascinating and puzzling. East Europeans were optimistic but apprehensive. Many of those he interviewed at the time expected to be living like Viennese or Londoners within five years, 10 years at the most. But these hopes were mingled with anxiety and foreboding. As Hungarian sociologist Elemér Hankiss observed: “People realised suddenly that in the coming years, it would be decided who would be rich and who would be poor; who would have power and who would not; who would be marginalised and who would be at the centre. And who would be able to found dynasties and whose children would suffer.”... (Source: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/oct/24/western-liberalism-failed-post-communist-eastern-europe)
Translation - Greek Την Άνοιξη του 1990, ο John Feffer, ένας εικοσιεξάχρονος Αμερικανός, πέρασε τους μήνες του διασχίζοντας κάθε γωνιά της Ανατολικής Ευρώπης με την ελπίδα να ξεκλειδώσει το μυστήριο του μετα-κομμουνιστικού του μέλλοντος και να γράψει ένα βιβλίο σχετικά με τον ιστορικό αυτό μετασχηματισμό που ξεδιπλωνόταν μπροστά στα μάτια του. Δεν ήταν ειδικός, οπότε αντί να ελέγχει θεωρίες, άρχισε να παίρνει συνεντεύξεις από όσους περισσότερους ανθρώπους μπορούσε από όσους περισσότερους διαφορετικούς δρόμους της ζωής ήταν δυνατό. Οι αντιθέσεις που αντιμετώπισε ήταν συναρπαστικές και αινιγματικές. Οι άνθρωποι της Ανατολικής Ευρώπης ήταν αισιόδοκοι αλλά φοβισμένοι. Πολλοί από αυτούς περίμεναν τότε ότι θα ζουν σαν τους Βενετούς ή τους Λονδρέζους μέσα στα επόμενα πέντε χρόνια, το πολύ δέκα. Αλλά, αυτές οι ελπίδες είχαν ανακατευτεί με άγχος και τρόμο. Όπως παρατήρησε ο Ουκρανός κοινωνιολόγος Elemew Hankiss: "Οι άνθρωποι κατάλαβαν ξαφνικά ότι στα επόμενα χρόνια, θα έχει αποφασιστεί ποιος θα ήταν πλούσιος και ποιοςφτωχός- ποιός θα είχε δύναμη και ποιος όχι- ποιος θα περιθωριοποιούταν και ποιος θα βρισκόταν στο κέντρο. Και, ποιος θα είχε τη δυνατότητα να ιδρύει δυναστείες και ποιανού τα παιδιά θα υπέφεραν."
