Pigs are cute creatures, even if they live in mud. However, on the global socio-zoological scale, pigs are the poor relatives of horses and bovines. They are a kind of peasant ("Vlach")... What else are Portugal, Italy, Greece, and Spain but the underdeveloped, the pigs of Europe? As for Ireland, it has always been an English colony with white inhabitants, a southern country in the West. Therefore, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece, and Spain are the PIIGS, the pigs of Europe - with a double I for emphasis.

During their official meetings, representatives of major European financial institutions derogatorily use the offensive term PIIGS to refer to the Mediterranean pigs, which, however, must remain in Europe in order to continue being exploited.

Today, we must invent a Europe that does not see itself as a "great power," as an aircraft carrier carrying bombers for the realization of colonial wars. Europe has the unique ability to adapt and accept. If the pigs wake up, they can build a Europe that will be completely different from the German Europe of fog and mist. After all, with pigs, nothing is lost.

The goal of this book is to formulate a hypothesis for discussion, but also to present a real opportunity for the countries of the global South, which can see the PIIGS and, in general, the Mediterranean countries as an example capable of destroying the plans of the "global company"; the opportunity to create, in a self-determined way, the ability to live from their own resources and from their "poverty" in contrast to the illusory wealth of quantitative economic growth imposed by the powerful of the planet, who cause destruction and generate impoverishment.
