Tocmai acum, când avem atâta nevoie de aceste incontestabile elite, gubernia europeană care a ajuns țara noastră, doar prin pișicheria noastră politică, parcă le alungă.

Just as we depend so much on these undeniable elites, our country that managed to become the European Borough only by our political imposture, seems to push them away.

agree Daniel Grigoras : ah, îmi place mai mult termenul ăsta; am vrut să dau și alte sinonime, dar m-am grăbit să postez răspunsul; totuși, "shenanings" trimite la fiecare act în parte, pe când "pișicherie", le consideră ca pe un tot

Multumesc :) Nu mi se pare ca shenanigans ar fi de regula interpretat ca "individual instances of...", ci mai degraba generic, ca "apucaturi". M-a interesat mai mult sa fie in acelasi registru
agree ION CAPATINA : Cred că este în același registru

knavery

Now, when we most need these undeniable elites, the tiny little province our country has become simply and solely at the hands of our political knavery, seems to chase them away.

Am ales ,,knavery" pentru ca este old-fashioned ca si termenul in romana...
