Received and Published:

Hello everyone, we
Anna Perri, Stefano Tretti, respectively secretary and coordinator of the Secretariat of the Circolo PD Pigneto Prenestino (VI Hall).

Following the document that we are sending you attached a few days ago, we received many comments and suggestions from other coordinators and points of reference of the Democratic Party in Rome. At this point, we wonder if it is appropriate to begin to know each other better, see, chat about the state of the construction of PD in Rome and to start a movement of ideas and policy initiatives from below that truly represents the needs of the people and those who have joined the project of the Democratic Party.

At regional level, have been held primaries to elect the regional secretary, hoping that the tool is also used for the primaries to elect the Secretary Roman promises, therefore, an election day on November 30. E 'probable, therefore, to be made up as candidates and more candidates to form the Regional Assembly and Citizens.
Apart from the names of secretaries, we believe it is important to stress that the primaries are designed to give voice to the movement to enhance the skills and the younger generation to break the mold of the old politics and to give air and force the construction of the PD, in Lazio and Rome.
How do we want to deal with the challenge of the primaries? What kind of party we have in mind? How to choose the new ruling classes? How better to justify them? What role the Territorial Circles?

of irons in the fire there is so much. That's why this request to network, see, know, confront, debate, talk politics and return to it in the appropriate forums, that within the party: first to wait months to be convened by the Roman leadership, and maybe find the decisions ready, it is good that the clubs are aimed primarily to address the construction of the party and the selection of the new ruling classes, it is true that we are the driving force behind the PD, as it is recognized by most parties.

With some of you have already discussed: we set the informal meeting, then, on Thursday, '24, at 19:30. The appointment is at the entrance of the central Unity Day Caracalla. Date confirmation email, come in number, spread the word to the Coordinators who know and do everything to be there. It 's a familiar and informal first time put some dots on the many questions that still remain unanswered.

have any questions or information, write or call at 349 3958915 (Stephen).

Best wishes, Stephen

The scheme mediocratico
(Ilvo DIAMONDS - The Republic)

From Sabina Guzzanti Silvio Berlusconi, through Beppe Grillo: the path of Italian democracy seems to have done. Beyond the democracy of public opinion. Until the "mediocracy".

define it as not to evoke "mediocrity," which for us is a democratic virtue, when summed timid passions, detachment, moderation. We intend, in this way, echoing the power of the media. Who imposed the policy not only the language, style: even the rules and patterns of organization. Finally, the actors. Of course, we know that the interrelationship between media, communication and politics has a history long and comprehensive, and full of illustrative examples and by no means "poor." Just think of Ronald Reagan, modest actor in his youth, but U.S. President among the most important of the postwar period. Or, Terminator, aka Arnold Schwarzenegger, current governor of California. But in Italy the plot is narrower than elsewhere. It is designed so that almost as fast there are not realized. It was the beginning of the turbulent nineties. From the mass parties, ideology, organized, locally based political parties was passed without a society, organized in the center and fragile in the suburbs. But most of all: your own, influenced by the logic of communication and marketing. A sort of populism media, whose inventor is unquestioned and unsurpassed Silvio Berlusconi. Creator of a successful party, Forza Italy, but at the same time, the Second Republic. Which he has become the main reference and ideological dividing line: to accept or reject. No reservations. Master of the main private television group. Imposed and "sold" on the political market himself and his party as a product. The Coke or ferrero-rocher. After him, the television has become the main place of participation and identity politics.

Even today, however, voters prefer the information center of Mediaset, the voters of the center of the RAI. By tradition and loyalty. Even whether the differences between the networks are now thin and the information of Mediaset, in some cases, it is more "left" than that offered by RAI. It is not said - and, in our opinion, is not true - that TV is the main place - if not the only one - in which form (worse for shaping) the views of voters. But it is a conviction rooted and shared, especially in the political class. Without distinction of party and party. Also in the center. Where the traditional parties, worn by the ideological and organizational point of view, they chased the model invented by Berlusconi, shifting their center of gravity from the territory of the video, the organization personalization, marketing ideologies, ideas slogans. In a few years, where he becomes the show is the spectacle of politics.

The center, in this scene, dived headfirst. Discounts the initial problem of inexperience. But it is used quickly, crowding every network and every program. Any time. From "One Morning" to the "Nights" of Vespa and Mentone. The jurisdiction of the communication system is, therefore, become an important requirement for a political career. No coincidence that Berlusconi's most influential advisers are two professionals of the media system: Gianni Letta and Giuliano Ferrara. The center is at the environment of television journalism, which has selected, with alternate success, the Italian Parliament and Europe, but also mayors and governors.

The image and the confidence the media weighed in the choice of candidate for prime minister. For these reasons Rutelli in 2001 and the same in 2008, Veltroni called Berlusconi to challenge. Of course, both political (or average) along the course, came from an administrative success, as mayor of Rome. Veltroni is also secretary of the Democratic Party, voted in the primaries by millions of voters. However, in both cases, the ability to communicate has contributed significantly to their choice.

The parable of mediocracy, left, has collapsed in recent years with the overrunning of satirical comedians and actors: the opera and the squares on the screens. By actors from satire to political actors, tout-court. This is the case of Sabina Guzzanti, exploded during the recent demonstration of girotondi, Piazza Navona. Of which was an absolute hero. Along with Beppe Grillo, a leader of a movement of opinion which has taken measures mass and crosses all political parties. The political rise of the comic and satirical, left, has a number of reasons. There has contributed, first, Silvio Berlusconi, who named them - and legitimate - as "enemies." Decree, in some cases, expulsion from the media. But the actors have become satirical political leaders drawn from the results mainly because of the media center. Moreover, in terms of communication, on TV but also in public events, Pecoraro Scanio, Diliberto Franceschini or how they can compete with Sabina Guzzanti? Or starring in the theatrical scene as Moni Ovadia, the Nobel Dario For and Franca Rame (who was already in parliament)? Not to mention Beppe Grillo. There is no game. Finally, there is the difficulty of making opposition. Since the radical left has disappeared, and that reform is too timid. Then the squares become theaters where they performed a show of opposition "shocked". Because they know (and should) do the comedians and actors of satire. Scrutinize and expose the vices of politics. The enemy and - even more so - of supposed friends.
For this
in Piazza Navona, on Tuesday, could not go otherwise. Sabina Guzzanti and Beppe Grillo can play the chords of popular feeling and resentment. They do scandal and news. The best interpretation of the show of indignation. Other than Di Pietro and Furio Colombo. But it is not sufficient simply to satire, as some among the organizers and one of the leaders (so-called) political (real) present at the event. Too simple. Too easy. This was well explained Sabina Guzzanti, in his letter to Corriere della Sera: "Anyone who speaks to audiences in politics." Not only that, but "the speech of a comic can be much more political than that of a politician." He's right. You its intervention to have the sign imprinted political expressions of Piazza Navona. She is the protagonist of the event. In

mediocracy, moreover, the center of the scene is inevitably occupied by "mediocre." With unpleasant side-effects and adverse to the reformist members of the center. 1) Why good satire is not reformist, but revolutionary. Does not accept the mediation is uncompromising and, today, anti-politics. But the anti-political voters especially discouraging and disappointing to the left. 2) Why between Berlusconi, Guzzanti and Grillo, including Berlusconi, Veltroni and Rutelli: mediocratico in a system, there is no game. The first is the master, the impresario. Other: actors or apprentices. Moreover, in the era of democracy of the public, "the only one who beat Berlusconi, twice - or rather one and a half - it was Romano Prodi. Anticommunist and antitelevisivo. Why do the media, image, TV, politics, count, but not everything. We need something else. Presence in society, organization. Identity. Hope. But this left divided between brave and angry, without dialogue between the opposition and opposition without dialogue: the risk of being alone without hope.

A drawing perverse and authoritarian
(Eugenio Scalfari - La Repubblica)

E 'need to speak of justice, Law Ghedini-Alfano being fast approval of the amendment process stops and its hoped-dismantling, the ban on newspapers to report news on the investigative phase of investigations and prosecutions. It is necessary to reaffirm strongly, as did Ezio Mauro in his article on Friday, the shame of a strategy dominated by the obsession of the "premier" to avoid at all costs and by all means the celebration of his trial for a very serious offense (bribery of judges) that is not within his ministerial functions, a shameful crime of common law courts with the investigation removed a major "weak point" of equality of all citizens before the law. All

this is necessary and well done to the Democratic Party strongly oppose the whole of this legislation are unacceptable either in substance or in the procedures and timing that characterized them. But there is one aspect of the situation even more serious because it goes beyond the specific case of denial of justice on Silvio Berlusconi. And relating to the change in the course material of the Constitution.

You are in fact occurring after only two months of taking office the government a massive shift of power towards the figure of the "premier" and the government led by him, increasing intimidation against judges and prosecutors, a real confiscation of parliamentary control of which the main actors are the same as presidents of both chambers and the parliamentary majority as a whole. He had never seen in sixty years of a Republican Parliament so prone in front of the executive power should be scrutinized.

The Houses are actually transformed into corridors of government, their presidents have accepted without a murmur, which decrees signed by the head of state for reasons of urgency were tampered with by lewd and not appropriate amendments, bills of which the Head of State had rejected the decrees of the conditions for apparent lack of urgency were voted in by reversing the order forty-eight hours of work and the entire parliamentary agenda.

I repeat here not only shows the obsession of the accused Berlusconi, shows a profound change and extremely dangerous material of the Constitution of the Republic, which initiates the Italian democracy toward authoritarian forms, weakens the independence and operation of the counter-space, sports at stake guarantee institutions starting with that of the Presidency of the Republic.

We have entered a political stage dominated by the urgency, sometimes real but more often invented, and brought about artificially. The urgency becomes an emergency, the emergency becomes exceptional. The government acts as if we were under martial law or in the presence of huge natural disasters; the decrees of one another, the texts of the financial measures adopted in nine minutes without any of the components of the government he has read, the speed becomes a value in itself regardless of merit, the filing of "Roma" and their children must be performed at the pace of office; three thousand three hundred thousand policemen and soldiers are to accompany police officers to give citizens the feeling of a huge looming threat and at the same time the assurance of the army to dominate it.

This is happening under the eyes of a shocked public opinion, and blackmailed by inconcrete invelenita dall'antipolitica rampant fears that provides to weaken the social responsibility and the feeling morale.



* * * It is true that in the global era depository institutions at various levels of sovereign powers must be able to decide the appropriate speed. The speed has actually become one of the conditions on the decision, since the lentocrazia not suited to global problems. A local, national, continental, imperial, speed is a value in itself implies that a centralized authority and efficiently. The clearest paradigm of this post-modern form of presidential democracy is provided by the United States, where the President, directly elected, uses tools and high sovereignty of an administrative apparatus that he directly relates. The presidential democracy, however, would cease to be such if it were placed in a state of law based on the existence of multiple mutually balanced powers. The first of these is to balance the autonomy of the States, which delimits the territorial federal jurisdiction.

The second is the Congress and particularly the Senate, where the bond election of senators by the people of the State in which they were elected is much higher than the bond of belonging to the party: parties which are more liquid form of the electoral committees aimed the selection of candidates rather than to the custody of ideologies and disciplines partitocratiche. Under these conditions, the members Congress and its committees are a powerful "countervailing power" is particularly effective in finance and in the appointment of all officers of the federal investigative powers in both control and which are not weakened by the unstable membership in political parties .

The third power resides in the Supreme Court acting on the basis of actions by acting on the jurisdiction and constitutionality.

The fourth estate is the free press, in which no other power has never asked for special protection restrictions and constraints of institutions and public personality. Newspapers and journalists are incurring as everyone in the crimes covered by the law but there is no limit to press to publish news on any subject and any person, especially if they are public figures, their public activities and their private behavior and very private.

This is in broad outline the complex picture of presidential democracy, further enriched by the diversity of churches and religious freedom that comes with it. This is not of a static model or a model with no deformities, vices, large and very large wounds, much less of an ideal society to be emulated in all respects. But constitutes a landmark in the evolution of democratic centralism within the rule of law and the separation of powers balanced and counter-powers. Nothing like the new constitution to which material is devolving the Italian situation.

*

mistaken those who consider the involution of our system of democracy deformed savings institutions to the economy. In reality it is the most exposed to the elements of public policies and so-called creativity and imagination of which we have already done five years experience in the Three Peak dismal 2001-2006. Those policies have returned to work in an international framework even more complex and troubling.

The example of very high alert is provided by the Alitalia case of which we have spoken several times and now seems to emerge in all its gravity. Based on the most reliable rumors leaked directly from the 'advisor' Banca Intesa, one proceeds towards the formation of a "new Alitalia", which could use 80 percent of the flight paths on the national territory and the crew and of land necessary for carrying out this activity. The properties of the new company would be entirely private and national levels. It would no longer have any debt as debts, losses, redundancies would be fully transferred to a "bad company" or "old Alitalia" if you prefer, public property, initiated the settlement with all the consequent burdens. In

outline the main beneficiary of this kind is represented by the owner of Air One, a company that largely failed to download its debts and its losses in "bad company" and would receive shares of the "new company" means a full-scale rescue dependent of public money. Many other aspects very doubtful one can see in this project, the mouth of what would be a regional company of the type of Sabena and Swissair, risen from the ashes of a failure to serve a little more than a regional market. If this happens, the public and employees of Alitalia will be able to measure the damage that the reckless conduct of Berlusconi Tremonti has brought the negotiations with the country sinking Air France with no alternative plan and waving the smoke and mirrors for the national airline.

*

bench still holds the dispute between Tremonti and Dragons on "Robin Hood Tax". In the recent meeting of ABI (Italian Banking Association), the Minister and the Governor were both present and speakers. The newspapers have reported in detail the clash - however very guarded in the forms - which occurred between the two, who broke with the governor on the need to avoid the "Robin Hood Tax results in an increase in costs of energy and 'banking and the minister who was defending his image as defender of the weak and strict tassatore classes of speculative profits. "Before are taxed the workers who could not possibly pass on their taxes more, "he said at one point the Minister of Economy, looking proudly around him as he happens to do when you think of having dealt a blow straight to the chest of the opponent.
Before you
taxed workers. Employees. Of course, it is. It was always like that because the employees were the only social group that has paid taxes in full, except for having to accept to immerse themselves in precarious employment black everything that goes with it both on the wage is on the social benefits and safety protections. Before the workers are taxed. Why is the minister uses the imperfect history? Now you do not rate more? On the contrary: now tax themselves even more than before. A glance at the figures out by Istat just two days ago.

IRPEF weight is increasing and, in the personal tax revenue, is increasing the burden on workers, and those employees in particular. Before you rate? Never before have taxed, Mr Tremonti and it is she to do so. So do not use the past tense because the issue is terribly historic present (and future).

* * * The same

Tremonti presented recently in Brussels on his paper on the importance of speculation in the increase in prices for energy and commodities. Would to be, in expectation of the minister and of the many newspapers that are chorus, a sort of triumphal march. Instead it was a flop as it must for many reasons we listed last Sunday. European authorities have politely questioned whether the price increase resulting from speculation (the same observation made at the meeting Dragons ABI mentioned above), have questioned whether we can prove collusion between operators and finally put in doubt that Europe has tools to intervene in the market of commodities and oil which takes place mostly on non-European places.

This story of the century of speculation fever is a way another as an external enemy to inspire imagination and distract attention from far more significant and troubling reality. So the government will face a tough autumn. Marcegaglia is now also "extremely concerned" by the drop in industrial production last May and again to what is expected for June and subsequent months. But he did not know, do not expect him it was not in the signals of its antennas, president of Confindustria kind? The weather was good until a couple of weeks ago, she said. So a nasty surprise, a bolt from the blue? Be more careful, Mrs. Marcegaglia: This is serious stuff and can not be distracted with impunity.

(Reflections of a national indignation, continuously updated 04/07/2008)

perceived insecurity, which translates into desire for decisiveness. Nine minutes to make over 100 decisions: the masterpiece of the Berlusconi media. People admire, found a new patron saint ... does not matter if many of these decisions will prove to be exceptional buffalo ... This mode of governance makes us a bit 'maximalist, a little' justice-a little 'giratondini, however, decided to clarify the "smart" this government.

The buffaloes of PDL

The dialogue between the majority and the opposition has not failed because of the latter, but because the usual conflicts of interests of Berlusconi, TV and justice, burst on time with the highest priority on the political agenda, undermining the credibility of the actions and head of government. Today
emergencies are no longer the safety, waste, low wages, Alitalia, as promised during the election campaign, but block the process and protect the judiciary from the highest offices of a time stato.Ancora PDL has shown willingness to prioritize the interests of his boss, lied during the election campaign, mocking the citizens of this country.
Recent events (published by L'Espresso interceptions on Saccà) show once again the nature of the Cape Government, its methods and that they are made of men around him, but demonstrates the harmful and destructive this ongoing conflict. The buffalo

Tremonti:

1) tax on oil companies that takes from the rich to give to the poor
proposal very attractive, but low demagogic because this tax will affect in particular the distribution, but will eventually weigh on households with rising prices of fuel and electricity. Tremonti knows and adds a provision that would prevent this situation, but in practice, not having the energy market (prices) regulations, this prohibition is waste paper! Less than half of this revenue will go to poorest, through prepaid cards (it is the ideology of compassion that invents a card of poverty and decreed that all citizens are now on equal opportunities in social work). We do not know the identity of the beneficiaries (and therefore the amount), but the uncertainty is perhaps intended to contain the disbursement and allocate it for other purposes.
However, a more serious and less propaganda proposal could be to allocate income to a lower portion of the proceeds (two billion), which was collected by Eni, in the form of dividends, the increase in oil prices
Finally, any tax outstanding by the idea of an illiberal and arbitrary taxes for use and consumption of political turn: In a nutshell Tremonti is not Robin Hood, but his archenemy, the Sheriff of Nottingham.
2) sets the target inflation rate 2008 to 1, 7% (the real one is 3.6%, more than 5% for purchases more frequently)
You are using the law that governs wage increases since 1993, but being in this case, well below the real inflation rate, the risk is to further reduce the purchasing power of workers and retirees. The Government, Confindustria and the unions are another model contract! The buffalo

Scajola:

1) It 's easy to relaunch nuclear power without discussion and study, but it is much less state, in principle, the sites involved. It makes everything so as not to interrupt the honeymoon!

The buffaloes of La Russa:

1) Soldiers in the streets. Our forces are around 350,000. The most numerous of the EU. The contribution of the soldiers will be about dell'0, 80% is not addressed as an 'emergency. The military will be used mainly for the sake of image and propaganda! The buffalo

Alemanno and Berlusconi: The International Agency

S & P: "Nono holes are hidden in the Municipality of Rome"
Veltroni: "Hole in Rome: buffalo media and politics; In Rome, the debt is 2001 to 2007 grew by 14.4%, 18.2% in Milan. The debt per capita is 2540 euro in Rome, Milan 2840. "

The buffalo Berlusconi ( updated 07/04/2008):

1) We invented a shadow minister, Alfano, to cover are involved in the criminal and his shyster Ghedini, true justice minister
2) He dusted off the patrol as ministers of the veterans of decision Craxi (Tremonti, Brunetta, Sacconi (and yesterday his "vaffa" the audience CISL), Frattini) for handle uncertainties and fish in the center.'m eclectic and unscrupulous politicians, and if necessary will resort to their workhorse of 80 years: the increase of public debt
3) Selecting and drastically reducing the intercepts and processes for citizens to know and prevent the judiciary to process its possible involvement undignified and, among others, those of Senior and inefficiencies extravagance of government (which will all be attributed to the "fannuloni" Brunetta). In addition, processes for many crimes (rape, usury, robberies ,...) that before the elections were considered dangerous to the security of citizens are now suspended: in fact creating a disguised amnesty. Busy
how to trim a little starlets little competition (see Rai), to promote as Ministers infirm people (measures emanate from dictation), favors its own interests and neglecting those of the country (wages, families, taxes, security, waste ,...) which had placed first in the election campaign. Now it seems to be concerned about the revelations about its capabilities and seducing some of her affair with the minister and so he invents blackmail and emergency ordinances to cover inpunità of his anxiety and his fear of losing the reputation of the great deceiver which has also contributed to his political success.

The public reaction to this way of governing is increasingly weak government continues to enjoy a very high consensus. In the last decade Berlusconi's populism, through its many instruments, has sown good and now has spread to most of this country (there are also signs of slowing in the central regions). Civil society from a few signs of vitality. Most of the media ownership is not lukewarm, if not complicit.

We need participation, which translates into very strong ideas and action. Visible and often. The PD should stop with the internal feuds! Choose what to accept and reject what the Government proposals, programs and projects to propose credible alternatives, based on efficiency and equity. Only then can we hope to awaken the public to be truly democratic this sleep!

BUT THIS COUNTRY WANT TO REACT?

The bite of the Cayman
(Curzio Maltese - THE REPUBLIC)


is a bit 'naive or very, surprised that Berlusconi has returned to Cayman. If there is a person true to herself, beyond any human temptation to doubt or boredom, this is the Knight. It was so long before the descent into politics, with its subversive nature, authoritarian paternalism, love the short cut demagogic and mocking contempt for each counter-democratic, beginning with the judiciary and independent journalism, the impatience constitutional rules, the school learned of the P2. The problem is not

has never been how much and how it can change Berlusconi, who never changes. Rather, what has changed and as Italy, which in the last fifteen years has changed a lot. Thanks in part to the enormous media power of the premier.

Every time that Berlusconi has won Prime Minister's office has tried to force the constitutional order and the first thing he violently attacked the judiciary. He did it in 1994 with the Biondi decree, the first act of government in 2001, when the emergency decrees of justice were introduced even before receiving the trust and today. With an escalation of violence in tone and, even more, in contents of the measures.

The package of Justice today is more subversive of Cirami Schifani award and, in turn, more subversive "clean slate" of '94. But the growing strength of the twist imposed by Berlusconi to democratic structures, public reaction has been accompanied by a weaker and weaker. In '94 the revolt against the "save-thieves" crippled by a government now intended to last a few months. In 2001, the "Girotondo" inaugurated a season of movement, with millions of people in the streets, which were translated from the first year in a series of heavy electoral defeats for center-right majority, also overwhelmingly in Parliament.

The third time, this, in the presence of an even more dramatic attempt to blow up the pillars of the independent judiciary, the reaction is very weak. The opposition, set aside the illusion of dialogue, heralds a season of struggles, but not now, in autumn. The so-called civil society seems to have disappeared from the scene. The magistrates are the only ones to revolt vehemently, but they seem isolated, at least in the polls. Almost defend their corporation and the rights and freedoms of all, just as they designed the fathers of the Constitution.

Here the matter is that what happened to Berlusconi (all), but what has happened to the country. We really have become a "a little country 'Bulgarian', as we missed the demiurge few days ago? The answer, unfortunately, is yes. In this

quarter of a century that has not changed Berlusconi, Italy has changed a lot and worse, the civil and social fabric is fraying, and common sense was modeled on the authoritarian instincts. Many feel that talk in offices, in bars, on the beaches today, with everyone and everything, whether it's immigration or justice, civil rights such as religion, trade union or Europe, in Italy in the '94 would have been unimaginable.

Berlusconism started from the belly of a country where democracy has never been carried through, for a thousand reasons (reasons of right and left), but now has spread to all parts of the country and came to the brain. The genetic mutation of the company Italian is evident to anyone who looks from outside. Even in the superficial aspects of the skin: a people we had never been "obnoxious", as it is today. More seriously, the return of Berlusconi to power and its first and devastating releases have evoked ghosts of the worst on the international scene.

But this is to see if the "Italian case" is that even for the Italians. If public opinion still exist that have prevented these reagents Democrats in '94 and in 2001 the drift, more or less soft, to a regime. The signals are contradictory, the game is still on. Certainly, in recent decades the impact force of Berlusconi's populism has been growing, as well as taking up chunks wider society. It is not only the power of television or publishing, but a genuine cultural hegemony. And surprisingly, the opposition, former students of Gramsci, still, after so long, do not include the mechanisms and scope of the strategy in place.

Other than the "long wave" of craxiana memory. They also, unfortunately, never change. We were deceived (again) to turn Berlusconi in a statesman, offering a table of negotiations. Delude themselves (again) be able to resist the policy of "hands off" and fade away in the red regions, which are already pink and could eventually end up gray or black. Waiting for better times.

There are better times for the opposition. Here and now must find the courage to strong proposals and alternatives to the dominant single thought, inventions capable of provoking debate and thus pierce the leaden hegemony "Bulgarian" governmental agenda. Should be coming any ideas, even many, one day, to awaken public opinion by democratic hypnotic stupor with which he follows in the steps ahead of Berlusconi. The same hypnotic stupor that captures the prey moves in front of the caiman. That in the end, attacks.

Exit Left resized very "radical" in the country (and because of new electoral system introduced by the previous Berlusconi government disappears from the Parliament) and the accession to the logic of the "useful vote" to the PD, which can thereby offset some of the diaspora votes of moderate Catholics to the UDC and PDL, and for the rejection of his policy proposal too discordant and often at odds with the collective decisions of the government and considered by the electorate clearly inadequate to meet the challenges of today. The PD takes
, thanks to the "Red Aid" that compensates for the departure of moderate Catholics of the former Margaret, but did not win. Instead win the Northern League and Italy of Values, the political parties closer to the positions of the 'anti-politics "and received more attentive to the theme of" safety "of citizens and respect for legality, the central themes of the campaign.
For the PD is a dual signal: •
of relatively resilient compared to "fall in popularity, thanks to innovations introduced by Veltroni on the simplification of the policy (" run themselves "); •
of" failure to break through the middle " for lack of novelty in terms of the proposed policy and a new management team (the failure of "symbolic candidacies," the result of centralization of the abstract composition of the lists at all levels) .

Overall, it confirms the right to ebb, with the glaring tip of the fall of Rome and what is worse, in the hands of right-wingers already wrought by the initial lack of chances. The meaning
.
is less reassuring given that the personnel policy of the left is most appropriate to administer.
In contrast, when, as in Rome, the candidate is perceived as "old" and the result of calculations and top-down tactical repositioning is cruelly abandoned even by the voters of the center, which prefer protest against "a certain way of doing politics "and the usual worn reminder" to close ranks "against the right. In Rome it consumes one of the worst defeats of the PD and with it, of a political elites still too old and worn with impaired balance ex DS - former Margaret.
The meaning "punishment" of Roman voting is strengthened when compared with the success of the candidate of the center of the Province of Rome Nicola Zingaretti.




Learning from the Tree of "full governance," bravely rocked by Veltroni after two "no-win" of '96 and '06, but were collected the right-wing coalition.
To propose as credible alternatives in 5 years the Coordination of the Circle of having to Montagnola believes in two directions, simultaneously completing the renovation started: •

update the ideal profile of our policy proposal.
Faced with the complexity of the challenges that a globalized world poses to all advanced societies, with the burden of uncertainty, confusion of values \u200b\u200band declining economic productivity, we must know how to listen and interpret the needs and new needs of the population, not to chase the demagogic "found" the right, but to find effective new ways of intellectual courage, and then convincing in the light of our values \u200b\u200bare distinct from the right: equality of opportunity, solidarity and respect for the rules in a context of cultural, civil and productive.
needs to be rethought in a "strong" position of a Progressive Party against the Italian company at the time of globalization, with the ambition to represent the hopes of the left. From this point of view it seems even cloying initiative that involved members of the former Margaret in the international position of the PD.
We can not settle for being perceived as a reference for civil servants and pensioners, for more now entrenched in the center - Italy. If we are to aspire to leadership in the country we have to cope with the consent of the productive classes and popular, now the prerogative of the right.
must therefore have the ability to interpret and select the priority needs in the "society of uncertainty" and be able to innovate compared to more traditional solutions, but not more credible and convincing.
Only under these conditions it is reasonable to point to "break" against the classes that today identify with the moderate right-wing programs.
This calls for the start phase of the policy discussion in terms of ideal and programmatic commitments throughout Party in a free and frank discussion, starting with the clubs. This path must lead to a Congress politician in advance, provided that does not result in a referendum on leadership. Either now or never used the search for a scapegoat, or the sanctification of the head that would lead to the easy way out "do not disturb the crane driver."

• build the Party in the territory as organized training.
In this regard, we note that a building should be taken without resistance from below and ambiguity, with a summit that makes only a facilitator of the process that must lead to blend the militants and voters base (other than "current") . It should be the emergence of a new leadership at all levels to replace the now inadequate who led us so far and what still has to be our gratitude for his efforts to lead the country and the city of Rome. This together with the construction of the Party with a membership in the strict sense, a transparent selection of management teams chosen by the members, the formation of majorities and minorities based on discriminatory policies and not to former members. From this point of view it is noted that the Regional Coordinator for the replacement of the opposite is happening.
Otherwise it is very unlikely that the party can credibly hold until 2009 with organizational top-down product of alchemy. Training lists for the October 14 primary, the criteria that are contingent, have outlived their function. It requires a close question that, from a profound internal debate animated by old and new members and participants in the primaries, allowing an inescapable parts of the leadership of the Party at all levels.
Far from pursuing a "hunt for the guilty," we believe that only this process will be able to legitimize a new political leadership, widespread from different regions, to lead the opposition today and prepare for the reconquest of the country's government and its Capital .
In this context, does not reassure the recent trend to outsource gattopardescamente pregnancy the new structure to the old elites co-opted, as "guarantors" of the process.
proposes that attract and engage the militants is that all citizens in thematic meetings on the political value of civil society, international activities, social development and work, etc.. trying to understand the demands from below in a draft free exchange of opinions and summaries of moods and interests of the electorate that makes them feel players and non-taxable policies.

Article of the Day: The Return of


caiman (Edmondo Berselli - L'Espresso)

populist measures. Demagogic ads. Crusade on immigrants. But it is with justice that the attack on Berlusconi takes to show his true face

And now, poor man? From parts of Walter Veltroni and the Democratic Party is beginning to be off the awful suspicion: that is to be dropped as dupes in supertrap of Silvio Berlusconi. Other than the 'statesman', all smiles and new institutional dignity. Rather, the author of a trappolone crazy, supercazzola a historical and a hook swallowed by the Democratic Party with all the line up the barrel. A masterful trick that starts with the strategy of a smile, a few months before the election, when the Knights began to attract Veltroni to playing one on one, counting on the pride of veltroniani, and their confidence that the great innovation represented by the Democratic Party would structurally change the competitive environment, make us forget the deep consensus that had precipitated the Prodi government and allow the New center to break through the middle, thanks to the modernism of his policy proposal.

As in all the plots perfect, her makeup was there on the table, in full evidence, and had Viking horns and the features of the League, welcomed the electoral alliance of the right party as a 'regional', and then compared with the marginal outline of the face to face Berlusconi-Veltroni era, and instead proved decisive, with the almost doubling of its votes in the North, in the accounts of the balance of power in the elections and to quantify its heavy defeat in the Democratic Party. But the dish was actually palatable by Berlusconi: the elections had gone, however, the heads-up between the old capopopolo Forza Italy and the new secretary of the Democratic Party would finally legitimized and normalized Italian politics by giving the two leaders 'allure' constituent 'and leaving the field open for the building of the Third Republic.

is why until a few days ago, the attitude of Veltroni has appeared to justify the attack impatiently Arturo Parisi, who with a blunt interview with 'La Repubblica' said the first task: "To accept defeat. "Otherwise the Democratic Party would still toyed, as they say in areas close to former Defense Minister, with the comforting, however preposterous, idea to have won, or nearly all elections and be in government with Berlusconi.

To exit this rosy cloud, it was necessary that the Knight revealed his true face, then her face is usually smoothed with 44 teeth of the caiman, the animosity against the interest of justice red robes, those who want to cling on six-year sentence at first instance for the Mills affair, that is for an alleged massive tax evasion, and that prompted Berlusconi to modify the decree on security, to include its usual and constitutionally sneaky killer 'ad personam'.

But in fact, that under the mask of the statesman there was always the same Berlusconi, the demagogue intolerant of legal controls and institutional, was much more than a suspicion of malicious. The strategy on the way to Berlusconi's Palazzo Chigi was deployed with all the adroitness of the case. The untrustworthy Pier Ferdinando Casini had been kept outside the borders of the PDL and the alliance. Survived electorally, he found himself in an uncomfortable position, squeezed between PDL and PD, ignored by the media, virtually silenced, while the other of the Dioscuri, Gianfranco Fini, who had dared to open a few months ago to the sound of a fight with insults Knight, had been made to accommodate on the jump seat of the presidency of the Chamber, the third position in the State (in theory), but in fact conveyed in a siding.

But the real masterpiece of Berlusconi had been made with the formation of the government. Palazzo Chigi with fluty under the direction of Gianni Letta, a meeting place and management of political, civil, military and clerical, Berlusconi has put his blocks in the critical positions of the government. Next to the disarming Angelino Alfano, as the true shadow minister for Justice has placed his criminal lawyer Niccolo Ghedini, the Azzeccagarbugli of which are known
legal niceties. With a game of checks and balances placed a former fascist, Ignazio La Russa, the Defence and a secessionist, Roberto Maroni, the Interior. And the authentic masterpiece

succeeded in assembling the package of mixed government, distinguished by the last heirs of the PSI and craxismo (Renato Brunetta, Giulio Tremonti, Maurizio Sacconi, Franco Frattini, not to mention Stefania Craxi). Now, old and young craxiani as Berlusconi knew, a dowry have it: they are capable of doing politics. Have in the past few taboos. As a culture, are eclectic.
And faced with the need to govern a country in economic stagnation, where it will be difficult to meet the expectations raised among citizens, especially as regards income, especially Tremonti Brunetta and were told it was not should go on the classic and predictable. Inventions needed to be "national socialism" (as Nino Andreatta said the controversy from 'wives' with Rino Formica: although it must be remembered that often Andreatta thought in English, and the formula 'national socialism', rigidly translated into Italian, it sounded good) .

Brunetta attacked on the front of the civil service, opening up the issues of transparency and passing threats against the "lazy". Tremonti has tried to apply the field to the postulates of his pamphlet 'The fear and hope', inventing the 'Robin Hood Tax', which quickly became 'Robin Hood Tax', in consonance with the no-global Tobin Tax educated, and should put hands in the pockets of oil companies and banks by taxing short-term profits. Now, it does not take long to realize that this tax is an illiberal extortion, and operation of colossal demagogy (those who decide that the profits are excessive? Minister of the Economy?). Others charge that "ethics". A tax appraisal, painted populist: an exercise in political cynicism for a consensus-style Putin.

Yet, in a morally deprived as the Italian Cultural very few voices were raised against the design of neostatists Tremonti. Old and young liberals, who held classes until half an hour ago with the ultra-liberal finger raised to her lips and ass chicken, have adapted to the dictates without flinching Tremonti. Poor Shadow Minister Pier Luigi Bersani has tried to explain that the tax burden will be immediately passed on to consumers, "the pump", but his voice, as well as subtle criticism of Confindustria, has been smothered by the applause of the audience cheering.

Only when Berlusconi took the blow of justice someone woke up. It held a first and interim financial statements. Alitalia to voice, it is likely half disaster, after the Knight has deliberately caused the failure of talks with Air France, this could allow for a stew and a significant loss of jobs. Waste in Naples, Berlusconi has thrown a dead body, again based on the idea that problems will be solved only if he rolls up his sleeves (but it will take three years, the militarization of landfills, and some wonder in delays in completing the incinerators). Nuclear power was revived by the expert uranium Scajola without any discussion and without any depth, with the announcement that will begin in 2013 but obviously without explaining where (say when it will start a nuclear program is easy, say the places where they get their power, however, less).

Domestically, after building a climate towards demented immigrants and gypsies, and combined with some casino-related crime or aggravating the underground, the government launched the mad militarization of the city's initiative, a depressing signal that multiplies the alarm for safety. In foreign policy, and Frattini Berlusconi have already offered to George W. Bush, the commitment in Afghanistan, most of what the American president could and would offer in return. In Europe, the government announced it will honor prodiani programs on the return of the deficit and, with some vulgarity League on the Irish referendum, for now it does not seem real to cultivate vocations Eurosceptic. The rest, heavy cuts and thinning of the provinces to local authorities, belongs to the DNA of the center. Abolition of ICI and partial de-taxation of overtime were two symbolic measures, little useful and perhaps harmful.

But now that Berlusconi has felt compelled to reopen the site of conflict with the law, which could have destructive reflections on the constitutional level (in particular the President of the Republic), all pretense is dropped. As for the Knight, as he naturally uninhibited, you Arranger: arretrerà in advance or according to your interests, the fear of conviction, the prospect of being elected by a majority on the highest hill. The attack on freedom of information with the bill on wiretapping, however, prepare a climate of 'demokratura', intellectuals close to the self-proclaimed liberals who applaud the media.

In any case, the Veltroni is a problem in particular: the Democratic Party is divided between current, foundations, cultural centers, and so is pulled down the entire left (see the catastrophic results in administrative Sicily) threaten to evaporate. In all likelihood, the structural design of the PD leader, political reconciliation and reform, and abortion. The election result was bankruptcy, the institutional program is going to run aground in front of the arrogance of Berlusconi. In this situation, there is that Congress might revive the Democratic Party. But if it is to invent something to salvage, for the 'democratic' it is time to think of something exceptional, the emergency situation, perhaps even heroic, even though we know it is unfortunate that the party that needs heroes.

conversion impossible
(Francisco Cordero - La Repubblica)

IN DIALECT subalpine circulated a metaphor romanesque "have changed to a wet nurse"; perhaps even say that suddenly appears in a different (dialects and related knowledge are dying out), the drunkard becomes an ascetic, the coward doing heroic deeds and the like.

're in the physiological metamorphosis lens made by long periods (Freud called the reactive forms, Reaktionsbildungen). Here is unnaturally swift. This appeared in the conversion of Cayman homme d'Etat thoughtful, fair-minded, selfless. Impossible, nature non facit saltus. No change at a stroke at age 72, the less egomania intolerant of rules (ethics, law, grammar, good taste), especially when it is so rich in money and votes by putting it under his feet. It was very clear by the amendment pro Rete4, in spite of competition law, but scholars of the so-called dialogue forgive almost everything.

In the air of the solstice, on Monday evening June 16, Leviathan (the crocodile archetypal biblical name) takes two shots. Let's start dall'arcinoto background. Like often, suffer from unpleasant Rogne court: a trial in Milan next epilogue is called to respond than usual habit, the broad sense defined "fraud", this time the prosecution is to have paid David Mills, a lawyer in London, that misrepresent blacks on foreign funds, had recklessly exposed the accipiens. Needless to say, because the weights at the prospect of a conviction: the maximum sentence is eight years, Art. Ter 317, or six, if applied art. 377 (the false lead of those who have the right to abstain), the hypothesis appears anomalous for a prime minister banned from public office, nor would it be unthinkable to the settlement at the Quirinal Palace in the year 2013; tip there, we know, in an Italy now acquired the family property, outbuildings Mediaset. The stakes are enormous. Just as the means of responding to danger.

there a dl public safety. Senate works on the conversion law. The amendments tabled by the usual yes-men provide for the suspension of one year of the processes on the facts before July 1, 2002, whose maximum penalty does not exceed the 10 courts between preliminary hearing and closing the hearings, tribunals and courts so big hurry the work. The presenters say without blushing masterpiece Leviathan and repeats in his letter to the chairman of the Senate, his devoted creature, announcing a second step, got out of the immunity of the five presidents, declared invalid by the Advisory four years ago.

will be suspended for a staged process against him "by far-left judges" gliel'hanno said lawyers; What's wrong?, a victim of political persecution has to defend itself, and ricuserà the chief judge, announced the en passant. But it's pure chance that the amendment succeeds comfortable. The ratio is in the collective interest. Berlusconi's speech very, whoever writes it to him. A year from now will be free, if it is not yet enough lengthen the suspension, including five from Palazzo Chigi scale Rosskopf, there are two steps in the meantime wants to have rewritten the paper wearing imperial powers (in front of him, Charles-Louis-Napoléon , III dynastic order, is a sovereign legalistic). When it difficult to give this technique can scrawl, the overflows from the legal syntax. Crew Members disfigure the basic concept of the law should be to hell with the immanent rationality whose parameters indicate the art. 3 of the Constitution, the Act covered only meets legislative form of abusive self-interest of the future master of Italy.

come to mind categories developed in administrative law, "the détournement du pouvoir", Francesco Carnelutti half a century ago constituted the hypothesis "excess of legislative power." We are in the realm of monsters, studied by the naturalist Ulisse Aldrovandi. The trick is so loud and disgustingly absurd logic in law, from astound the viewer, why suspend processes on the facts before July 1, 2002, while they continue their backs?, And include discussions in the conclusion of which is missing one day?; 12 months between the traffic jam is more serious, just fall into roles. That in the meantime, the miracle worker of Arcore has squared the circle setting up a rapid justice, and hoaxes from hucksters: the habitual practice, when not to use the jaws, or perhaps implying tacit fall in the curve of forgetting, disappear and do not talk Moreover, amnesty anonymous. In addition to the administrative disorder, the incredible pastiche he calls a civil law: intent, in the form Accursio called "machinatio scholar," close relative of fraud, such as the category under which it is defined the epic Berlusconi (piduista adventurer, impresario of magic lanterns, grimpeur business solved with tricks criminally assessable Intan kindergartens in fiscal tightness, peddler of illusions election): Amendments have convicts as a vehicle dl signed dall'ignaro President of the Republic on matters not at all similar, and had watched from saying what covasse; in Roman Nomenclature , dolus malus.

The brush is the German adjective "folgerichtig" in the sense subrational: has implications constant (fake smile, autocompianto, joke, bite, digest); not tolerate mediated pathways; instinctively chose the shortest, as when the alligator bit the prey. With this suspension process buries the action required: God knows cos'avverrà over the next five years but the goals catches the eye: he wants A 'la carte; distinct careers, of course, Procure to orders of the minister, so the government has the leverage criminal proceeding becomes a political choice or not (if they talked in the glorious sign in Bicameral Bipartisan: Licio Gelli, P2's founder, claimed the Copyright acknowledging the ideas of his "plan" of a "democratic renaissance" Anno Domini 1976, the still unseen demiurge attended lodge in the fourth or fifth row). At that point, nobody move more if it were sung by trainbearer Superman, invulnerable to the weather. The other two goals is not clear what they are: first, leave the European Union, the company uncomfortable, second, multiply the immeasurable wealth. On that point no one head on the neck are not sure, years ago, the old numbered 40 000 billion, growing as voracious raw material evoked by Anaximander.

The true face of the Knight
(Ezio Mauro - La Repubblica)



In the middle of the honeymoon that most Italians believed to live with the new government, the real nature of Berlusconi irrepressibly, equal to itself, dominated by a personal emergency and need to sweep away in a private afternoon every institution and every camouflage disguise as a statesman of the Knight. No. Berlusconi Berlusconi is ready to distort the rule of law to safeguard staff, to restrict the freedom of the press to escape the embarrassing publication of telephone conversations, to strike the right of the public to be informed about major investigations and crime committed, but to stop investigations of the judiciary. The Republic lives

another serious humiliation, with the ad personam laws that return, the government reduced the country's premier private shield, the parliamentary majority turned into a national defense attorney who wants to escape the suspect's legitimate court, deforming standards.

In a single day - after the strategy of the smile, the dialogue, the ambition of the Quirinale - Silvio Berlusconi has summoned his men to operate a dual action background to our constitutional system of democratic normality. Under attack, the freedom of information on the one hand, and other mandatory prosecution.

For the first time in republican history, the government and its majority enter the field of criminal prosecution to upset the rules and establish a hierarchy among the crimes to be pursued. A radical relaxation of rules on the establishment of roles for the hearing, however, that results in substantial alteration of the principle of mandatory prosecution. Established principle guaranteeing that the impartiality of the judiciary and the equality of citizens. The new standard

Berlusconi (presented as an amendment to Decree-security, directly signed by the Presidents of the I and II of the Senate Committee) requires judges to give "top priority" to the procedures of some crimes, but earlier this serves mainly to mask the real aim of the intervention: suspension "immediate and for a period of one year" of all criminal trials relating to acts committed up to December 31, 2001 who find themselves "in a state between the setting of the preliminary hearing and the closing of the hearing at first instance" .

is exactly the situation in which Silvio Berlusconi is in the process underway before the Court of Milan on corruption in judicial acts: on charges of having pushed the London lawyer Mills falsely state funds abroad Fininvest blacks in the galaxy.

That process has reached the final step, missing two hearings to the decision. We understand the rush, the conflict of interest, the urgency private, the national emergency resulting therefrom, the shame of a new law on a personal basis. We must stop those judges at all costs, even if they operate "in the name of the Italian people", even if the case is not really about politics, even if the maximum will be discredited internationally. We must by all means avoid the sentence, earn a year, to give time to the lawyer Ghedini (Knight and true defender of private-Keeper shadow of his government) to re-award that makes the premier Schifani not punishable, and that consultation has already found to be unconstitutional, because it violates the equality of citizens: a mortal sin, in a democracy, something that a political leader should not even afford to think about, but which in Italy will be presented in Parliament for the second time in a few years, to protect the same person, the same right that modern Italians have chosen to govern the country.

By all appearances, the man who leads the government is not enough to win the election, and even win big: not enough to have a large majority to both Houses, members of parliament chosen in person, and required all voters, a strong popular legitimacy, free hand in the deployment of legitimate its policy. No. Once again, Berlusconi is something illegitimate, which transforms into a mere instrument of political power, the Parliament's budget staff, the institutions in deformable material, such as laws, as the powers of the judiciary.

is a compulsion to repeat, it reveals a political culture scared, even when a fugitive leadership is on the throne, an institutional feeling that inhabits the Republic as a stranger, like a usurper, and can not be state, living her own triumph as abusive. With the result of seeing the head of the executive to the legislature asking for help to stop the judiciary. Something that the West is not used, an abuse of power Italy not only shocked, and that only the Italian establishment can accept oversimplifying, for the note and profitable complicity of the dominated by the ruling order, which is the foundation of every popular authoritarianism and demagoguery of any democracy, as we head unfortunately become. This

only for the institutions and the rule leads inevitably to a conflict with the Prime Minister the head of state, guarantor of the Constitution. Napolitano had intervened in the form of its role, against the attempt to introduce the standard anti-prostitutes in the security decree, explaining that you could not see a reason for urgency. Then he took a position for the same reason against the entry of the decree rule that leads the soldiers in the street to perform police duties. Today is facing an amendment that suspends for one year even criminal trials and orders for judges how they should move in the face of crimes, a provision inserted as a special "correction" in a decree that talks about anything. What does it matter

the suspension of trials with security? What is the urgency, to the citizens? The only urgency - as the only safe - it is very private and shameful that the Prime Minister. One flaw, which becomes an abuse, and also a challenge to the Head of State, who can not accept it. How can not accept the Democratic Party, who yesterday welcomed the proposal of Veltroni Scalfari: dialogue reforms can not continue in front of these "tears" of the right, because you can not talk about rules with those who trampled.

At the same time, while blocking the judges and stop his trial, Berlusconi also spoke about freedom of the news. The bill introduced yesterday by the government on wiretapping, in fact, not only prevents the publication of telephone intercepts, with penalties of up to 3 years (and suspension from the profession) for the reporter and author of the article up to 400 000 € 's publisher. The new rules prohibit the publication of Article 2 "or even partial summary" of the acts of the preliminary investigation "even though there is no longer a secret," until the beginning of the hearing. This means

silence about any news of judicial investigation, arrest, interrogation, statement of the injured party, the arguments of the defense, the conclusions of the preliminary investigation, request for trial. The whole process of investigation and inquiry before the preliminary hearing order of the court is now covered by the silence, even if it is a slow process that in the Italian judicial may last four to six years, sometimes ten. In this space, silent and secret, there is now a requirement (Article 12) to "inform the ecclesiastical authority" when the suspect is a religious Catholic, and if it is a Bishop will inform the Cardinal Secretary State of the Vatican, with a new privilege for the head of government of a foreign state, and for the people-priests, most of the other citizens.

If the freedom of the press is mutilated, the citizen's right to know and learn is severely limited. By this standard, we would not have known anything about espionage Telecom, the abduction of Abu Omar, all'Antonveneta climbing, climbing to the Unipol BNL, default of Parmalat, the story Moggi, the subordination of Berlusconi Saccà, the "pizzini" of Provenzano, organized by Pollari and the disinformation pump, and then the horrors of Santa Rita Clinic in Milan. But there's just an obsession against Berlusconi's private judges and journalists (some).

There is also the scientific attempt to prevent the formation of this crucial subject of any modern democracy is that public opinion, their considered opinion as informed and influential organized as an actor because conscious of the modern agora. No public opinion (I do not know, who does not know) in favor of private opinions, preferably disoriented and frightened, closed horizons biographical and fears separated, convinced that there is no more effective public action, a collective response to problems individual.

In this group of individuals - some of which are also the losers of globalization, the new mob of modernity - Berlusconi's populism asks only a vibration of consent, adherence to policies symbolic participation of states of mind, which results in the delegation. The figure that ties the whole thing is the emergence, in the sense of the horizon and fear the end of the conformity of politically correct rules and institutional balances.

Almaviva (no matter how), act (not that it counts with efficiency), turn the exception into the norm. The government, on closer inspection, it is militarizing the streets or landfills, but his decisions and his policies. Better, is militarizing common sense of the Italians, forcing in a continuous emergency situation, with the executive body transformed result from ordinary in overtime, which operates in a perpetual state of emergency. So Silvio Berlusconi can afford to come out in the evening, writing in a letter to Schifani that the rule-block process "is in favor of the whole community," even if it applies to "one of the many imaginative processes that magistrates extreme left have brought against me for the purpose of political struggle. "

and prior notice of a rejection, on a day like this, shame on democracy, with the prime minister accused person who rejects his court while it blocks the action. Proving that Berlusconi is ready for anything. We should prepare for the worst, if not the worst, probably, we are already experiencing.

PRESS DAY: A DAY TO ARTICLE XI

The wig of the Sun King
that governs the Bel Paese
(Eugenio Scalfari - La Repubblica)

"show that Berlusconi wants to rule the Italian crisis is forced by necessity to separate the State law. As if the country is going through a no man's land. The soldier as a policeman, as the court clerk, as the journalist laudator: the three figures are of a political scene that threatens to transform the meaning of our constitutional form. They are ghosts of a suspended time where the government has more power and fewer rights than citizens, less security, fewer guarantees. " So Giuseppe D'Avanzo wrote yesterday in this newspaper.

Unfortunately, this photographer just his view of reality. It will not be fascism, but it is certainly an alarming "incipit" towards a dictatorship that makes its way into all sensitive areas of democratic life, the weakness of the counter-accomplices, the liability of public opinion and the sleepy fragility of the opposition.

This comes increasingly clear democratic, which was profiled in the early days of the new legislature and is now fully unfolded before our eyes, it has found so far the only bank of the head of state. Giorgio Napolitano is impersonating the most of its role as guardian of the Constitution. He did so with wisdom and firmness, giving her consent the initiatives of the government when they have been dictated by real needs as the garbage crisis in Naples, but has denied in cases where emergencies were bogus and could undermine the correctness of the constitutional mechanisms. It would be wrong, however, leaning against the President of the Republic the exclusive weight to stem the drift: to be reduced only if the dialectic relationship between the Quirinale Palazzo Chigi and the game would have more history and would be closed quickly. We must, therefore, that other forces and other powers come into the field.

must denounce and stop the militarization of Italian public life of which the most striking example occurred with the action taken by the Council of Ministers Friday's Safety and interceptions, two artificially inflated emergency supposed to distract attention from the real emergency that afflict a large part of Italian families.

It 's the first time that the Army is involved with functions of public security. When Falcone was murdered and then a short time, Borsellino, military contingents were sent to Sicily to guard public buildings alleviating those tasks from the police and the police so they could devote themselves entirely to the fight against mafia unleashed.

But now the role that you want to give the armed forces is completely different tasks of patrolling the city with public safety and therefore powers of repression, arrest, focus contrasts with the crime.

What sense a measure of this kind? What benefit it may give rise to actions against the mob? The Police has well over one hundred thousand effective, as many more counts the Carabinieri and the Guardia di Finanza many more. Alongside these forces imposing a quota of 2,500 soldiers is devoid of any utility.

If the government has led to a sensational move as useless as this was just for the hype that would have raised. So serious is the insecurity of our cities to also require the involvement of the Army: This is the message launched by the government. And with it without the exceptional rule is adopted by an ordinary law a measure that would require the declaration of a kind of martial law, of national peril.
A similar measure was taken by the Badoglio government in the three days of July 25 of '43 and again in '47 after the attack on Togliatti. Since then, it was no longer done anything like this: Public safety on the streets, the Armed Forces barracks, this is the normal democratic intent is to change with much more extensive and unnecessary for a simple support to public safety.

The bill on wiretapping by the reasonable part of plans to protect more effectively the privacy of individuals without decreasing the investigative capacity of the prosecution.

Similar intentions were inspired by the Minister of Justice Flick and after him the Minister Clemente Mastella, but without those measures failed to become laws for the early termination of the respective legislatures.

Now presumably you succeed, but even in this case, as for security, is another political sense than the "reasonable plan" we mentioned before. The political sense, here is another militarization, prosecutors and journalists.

proxies. First, a list of offenses punishable with interceptions. Only those, not others. E 'has been written that the scandal of Calciopoli would never come to light without interception. Likewise, the bank takeover of the "crafty." But many others. To close the worst of all: Santa Rita Clinic in Milan, rightly dubbed the clinic of horrors.

interceptions and can not last more than three months. It does not say if renewable and therefore we can deduce that they will not be renewable. Cosa Nostra, to cite one example, has been tapped for years and perhaps still is. Three months pass by in a fiat, we all know.

Journalists and newspapers. There is absolute prohibition on the publication of news since the beginning of the hearing. The file documents at the Court does not diminish the ban. Why? If the parties or some of them want to publicize the documents in their possession are prevented. Why? Not invoke the presumption of innocence as if it were the reasons for the ban should wait until the final ruling of the Supreme Court. So why is another of the secret, but which one?

In fact, the prohibition is not only against newspapers and journalists, but against the formation of public opinion, which is against a basic element of democracy. The case of the Santa Rita has sparked a debate on the organization of health, the role of clinics compared to the NHS. Debate of great importance that could take place only at the beginning of the hearing and that the trial of the accused.

Any storage investigation would remain unknown, and so lacking any control of opinion on the plea of \u200b\u200bstorage and a possible critique of it. Likewise, about possible differences of opinion between prosecutors and the Office of the Chief Prosecutor, call back on the Attorney General on changes in substitutes assigns IP. On all these basic steps the public opinion could not say anything because it would be kept in the dark.

would do well to remember that the maxi-trial "Cosa Nostra" was confirmed to the Supreme Court was changed because the criterion for the allocation of processes initiated by the Minister of Justice at the time, Claudio Martelli, alerted by the pressure of the newspapers in alarm for the repeated pronouncements of the then President of the Chamber, Carnival. All these events took place under the constant control of the press and the public alerted investigators from the stage. Falcone and Borsellino were not judges but judges prosecutors. I wonder if they could operate with the efficiency with which they operated without the support of a fully informed public opinion.

Major penalty under this Act against publishers constitute a burden for which you should carefully evaluate the effects Freedom of the Press. In fact, it gives the publisher an enormous power over the director of the newspaper, in view of severe penalties will ask the publisher's right to be informed in advance of decisions that the Director will order the processes. In fact it is an actual confiscation of the powers of the Director the responsibility for moving ahead to the owner of the newspaper. It is therefore

militarized the court, the reporter and also public opinion.


Mr D'Avanzo is right in saying that these measures distort the Constitution. In fact identify the State with the Government and the Government with the "premier". If we add to them the infamous Schifani award, namely the freezing of all processes in respect of the high offices of state, the identification becomes total.

Here our discussion comes at a particularly delicate issue and that is the subject of the parliamentary opposition.

I speak of all political opposition. But I speak particularly of the Democratic Party.

In recent days the Democratic Party and Veltroni as the leader of that party have taken up some issues about attitudes of vigorous criticism of the government. The honeymoon for Mr Berlusconi is still in full swing with the public and with most of the newspapers but it's already gone largely with the Democratic Party. Unless a fundamental point, Veltroni stressed many times: it should continue the dialogue on institutional and constitutional reforms.
It 'obvious that this "reservation dialogue" inevitably affects the overall tone of the opposition. The institutional and constitutional reforms are of such importance to be processed into minimalia "contrasts on individual measures of merit. Especially since Tremonti asks the opposition to proceed "arm" with regard to the economic strategy, then here is another "subject to dialogue." It would seem, this, new to the benefit of the opposition but it is not. The Italian economic policy must take place in the coming years under the watchful eye of the European Authorities. Like it or not, we are in fact commissions from Brussels.

Tremonti will take responsibility for unpopular. Necessary, but unpopular with the opposition and wants to share quell'impopolarità.

Meanwhile, on the merits of reforms, Berlusconi will proceed as has been said and seen, the militarization of the system. "L'Etat c'est moi" said the Sun King and his successors continued to say until the outbreak of the revolution dell'Ottantanove.
I want to mention here that one way, indeed the most relevant, with which the identification of the state with the person of the King was accomplished was the enslavement of parliament to the will of the Crown. The decrees of the King to come into force needed the registration of the Parliaments and especially that of Paris. This was then the only separation of powers conceived and conceivable. But the king had a tool at its disposal: the parliaments could order the registration of the edict. In the face of the written order of the Sovereign Parliament recorded the "conditional" and the edict came into operation. Usually, this order was given, but rarely with Sun King and his successors became routine. Rebelled when Parliaments determined not to obey the King dissolved them. The body of the King prevailed on the Grand Century tenuous democracy. The Sun King

But here there is no sun. There is mud, greed, recklessness, moral cowardice. Courtship opposition. Mounting fears and instincts. Picconato newspaper of the Constitution.
What dialogue can be done when the country is militarized in the most sensitive of democracy? The Democratic Party has only one tool to prevent this drift: to decide that there is no possibility of dialogue on reforms to the absence of the object. If the state is dismantled each day and identified the body of the King, to talk about what the Democratic Party? And 'here and now that the dialogue should be done, militarization is locked. Urgencies and emergencies should be transferred on the problems of society and economy.

"In this new climate is good and can do very very well," he declaims Confindustria Emma Marcegaglia. What is the good climate, nice Emma? That of the Grenadier patrols that stop the thieves and can fire at the gypsy on duty? What the publisher promoted to managing director? What the judge actually isolated from all social and private "free trial"? That of individual employment contracts? And 'this good weather?

I remember when they were published on-line lists of taxpayers grew a uproar. The Director of Revenue, the author of many misdeeds, was indicted and resigned. But now the Minister Brunetta public contracts for all public managers and the salaries of all the consultants and is strongly applauded and encouraged. I also applaud and encourage you as I applauded and then Visco Romano. But instead of two because of weights and measures? The answer is simple: for the civil servants can be.

E 'this good weather? Beware of the renewal, it can be hard. It may be the awakening of a country without democracy. Dominated dall'antipolitica. By anti-Europe. Anarchy and dictatorship of the indifferent sharpers.

I find it a very bad climate.

ROME MUNICIPALITY REVIEW RELEASE: DAY ONE ARTICLE

So many words, a lot of talk ... But the facts?
(Father Fausto Marinetti - Micromega)


7,000 nomads in Rome, 10,000 in Naples, 160,000 in Italy, 0.2% of the population. 60% are minors. Many come from the Balkans in the '90s to escape the ethnic conflict.

Ponticelli, Roma, Romanian immigrants. Emergency waste, including human waste. On the one hand we talk about zero tolerance, crime of illegal immigration, 10 new CPT, patrols, military patrols, part of pogroms, intolerance, xenophobia, criminalization, war among the poor. For the mayor of Naples is easy to sympathize, but then it's up to city hall to find accommodation. The cardinal replies, urging priests to bring milk to children and food for parents who do not "have a crust of bread."

pity that the "committed" to take action individually, each playing an instrument without orchestra. Noble soloists, no chorus. Faint reminders of the central institutions. After all, how can they raise their voices with those political powers, in exchange for privileges, have promised to support "non-negotiable principles of the church"? If you eat the plate of the master can not afford to criticize him. Exactly the opposite of the prophets. But is it negotiable justice, human dignity, human rights? Can a church become functional to economic, political, military?

In the name of security seems to want to spend on everything else. But security for whom? They have no right to safety, even (or especially?) The weak, the defenseless women and children, the poor, precisely? Perhaps the clerical establishment is becoming the "church in the service of politicians" who promise to legislate on the family safe, to deny civil rights to copies of fact, homosexuals, etc..? The disappearance of the Catholic party, the DC, sponsored by the Vatican does not teach anything?

Even in poverty there is a hierarchy, a ranking without end: the unemployed, precarious workers, pensioners with a minimum, the elderly, homeless, without assistance, etc.. But Europe has never SEMT say that someone died of hunger (except for anorexia). Pope John and the Council today, perhaps more than "Church of the Poor," to speak of "Church of illegal immigrants and Roma? They are not the last of the last? Not all are for them the words of Christ, and those of Luke 4 ("I have come to proclaim liberty to captives of need"), than those of Matthew 25: ("I was hungry for dignity, a thirst for justice ... not I you satisfied? ").

Politicians in search of consensus can produce their justifications ("They are criminals! Are all in Italy because of impunity "); can take advantage of the climate of fear, ride the syndrome of the gypsy and the underground (all thieves, all lazy, all patrons of organized prostitution, etc.).. But the bishops and priests? Even the catholic Spain, even the EU has made itself felt. It is a bit 'too indiscriminately criminalize depleted? For some politicians seem to just be born the son of Roma and illegal immigrants to be automatically "criminal"!

Rivers of words, talk ... But the facts?

How many priests have opened the church doors to the new stateless and persecuted?

And a bishop, one who has invited them to take possession of one, one, of many stable ecclesiastical seminaries or convents empty or abandoned or rented?

And, miracle of miracles, one of the hundreds of religious congregations (which have transformed their novitiate in hotels / hostels tax), which has made available their own space?

And if the Vatican offered them political asylum, who knows, maybe a piece of its gardens for a day nursery, or propose them Vatican citizenship, or why not?, Offered them a basilica and adjacent with the privilege of extra -territoriality?

The "Son of Man" continues to repeat to all the children of humanity: "If you're going to make your gift to the altar and there I am reminded that someone's got against you, leave your gift, go and be reconciled to your brother. "

Roma and illegal immigrants do not have anything against us?


No tax, conflict interest
(Giuseppe Giulietti - The Unit ')


The ruling Council of State has really given a reason Silvio Berlusconi, as well as some commentators have argued for "royal family"? Not for idea! would be a grave error without hindering the operation of political and media in place that has a clear goal to erase even the memory of the rulings of the Constitutional Court, High Court and the European Union, the last in order of time, that of the State Council. The reality, however, is not deceptive. The Constitutional Court was not exceeded and continues to impeach a closed media system, adversely affecting the business and editorial pluralism. In that decision refers to the need to overcome the abuse of the system of extensions and employment rates.

The same concept was taken up and held permanently by the European Court also has recognized fully the right to broadcast to Europe 7. In that court, as is known, do not sit or Red Guards, or "antiberlusconiani profession." The Council of State, finally, has fully implemented the European verdict and asked the Italian government to take immediate action to adapt. The Council of State, albeit in ways not always crystal clear, therefore, decided to save Europe 7. This is the news. Not the non-closure of Rete 4. The government's conflict of interests must now protect the interests of Europe 7 also, if they conflict with the interests of the same prime minister. They will do this? I think not, but our job is to oversee, not to grant an excuse, not to allow lies and falsifications of reality. The first test will come on Tuesday in the Senate, when the government will unveil its intentions thwarted the amendment "kills 7 in Europe." It is likely, very likely, as well Roberto Brunelli wrote about the Unit, who will try the card of reference, the Committee again not going to decide. In this way, however, prove even the most doubtful that the unresolved conflict of interest has become a metastasis that undermines the proper functioning of the institutions. They will try to get to the payment of a rich compensation to be taken directly from the pockets of Italians who would thus pay tax on a real conflict of interest.

At this point the Italian anomaly celebrate his latest triumph.

Before bandage his head is still necessary to carry out actions against serious, rigorous, effective, as has already happened in recent days in the House of Deputies. For this reason the Association Articolo21 will offer Italian and European parliamentarians, lawyers, industry associations and the movement of consumers to create a committee which, step by step, to follow the government's action, reporting delays, omissions , measures of cheating. If and when, as is highly likely the government would refuse to save Europe 7, and so to condemn Italy to a hefty fine, then it will be essential to promote action to protect the rights of citizens so that, at least this The tax conflict interest if the pay out of their pockets.

Who would join the committee: "Keep your hands from the pockets of Italians," will send its attachment to the site: www.articolo21.info
