Victoryitis and the postwar disease of victory thinking
An essay warns Europe and the wider world of a speculative postwar malady called victoryitis. It describes three main forms: delayed action and contract stall, nostalgia for the prewar era prompting leisure over work, and a self centered financial mindset that could spike inflation. The piece urges sustained sacrifice, continued bond buying, and vigilance to prevent a renewed crisis, arguing true victory comes only when war is finally distant by decades.
