" A SOCIALIST PARTY FOR A NEW COURSE OF ITALY "
Speech by Nicholas Carnovale
Dear Comrades,
undertake this initiative in one of the most difficult and delicate junctures of political, economic and social our country.
The global economic crisis is unfolding in all its drama and its disruptive effects. Obamiana If America is facing collapse after the reforms and with confidence, not least health care in Europe, attitudes are among the most diverse, with the reappearance of disturbing protectionist policies memory Colbert.
In this context, Italy, it certainly stands out for its originality.
Ours is one of the slowest economies in the euro area for two decades. And this, not only in their time of post-crisis. It grows a little florid at times and lose a lot in times of recession. The buoyancy in the name of our local strategy, therefore, can not get enough for a country whose ambitions can not and should certainly not be commensurate with the capacity of its existing ruling classes.
In the months to come, the situation will be even more difficult. The recovery of the market does not coincide with the real economy. Social tensions will grow and turn on new and disturbing conflicts. I recall without going over the data on unemployment.
Istat data on the second quarter of the year indicate growth of 7.4% and forecasts of the OECD for 2010 indicate a 10.5% increase merciless. Add to that a post-war GDP levels of indebtedness and a splash of 120%. Here is the prepared for a highly explosive mixture.
adoperasi it is required immediately to restart the country.
this, you do not with the proclamations and the apparent good intentions bipartisan television in the living rooms - maybe in a tirade the other - but it must be done by programming a series of shock. -called structural reforms are needed, those which all have spoken in recent years, but no one has done this while proclaiming in sterile bi-polar alternating seasons of the advent of pseudo reform and counter.
with a difference (and allow me a joke!) "Reform and the Counter-Reformation in the church in the fourteenth century were born, to stem the phenomenon of corruption and to restore morality."
Here in the "Republic of caste" the only reforms have been produced for use and consumption of a few, have certainly not solved the much dreaded "moral issue" or curb corruption, but these have rather upset the constitutional balance, undermined the institutions, the deans seats for their protection and mortified democratic participation and the role of citizens, reduced according to the scheme feudal vassals to be, and valvassini vavasours, according to reports and condescended political notables of the day.
from real reformers and free people, which has no corporate or third party interests to be protected, we can not be us lay preachers those needs within a framework that sees the collective interest for all 'oblivion.
We know then indicate priorities and action areas.
We urgently need a comprehensive reform and full employment.
must ensure flexibility, security, social security (with an overall reform of agencies) and some are social safety nets, which are essential after a severe economic depression.
should bring the center of what once was called "wage policy" often forgotten by the unions, in the busy tables institutional and with our eyes to politics.
this needs a new model of decentralized bargaining and not the revival of the old cages wage cultural and political legacy of those who want an Italy at two different speeds, so without realizing that the country does not grow, condemning unequivocally 'appeal to a marginal role in Europe and worldwide.
Need a improvement of the education system, especially in the universities, which prepare and train to work, is not affected by most logical and without parochial barony always ready to scream, anyone governments, to defend acquired positions and privileges.
This is crucial for a country that wants to have a future, even because the school is the gym and the laboratory of democracy.
For our part, we need not fear to talk about simply because someone could rant saying that we are "right". Enough of this nonsense! Right and Left, as we have known, that a wavelength of 900 - in the presence of a society that is less politicized and ideological - are worth little if the comparison is into old patterns sterile and hairpieces, and do not address the problems instead of citizens.
Merit, for example, was the great key-word socialist the new course. And it is right that the heirs of that experience is riapproprino of this decline in the society of the twenty-first century.
And 'the only way to get in sync with the country and my generation. A generation, grant me the pun, disillusioned because too often deluded. E 'generation Erasmus and low cost, world-traveling, living abroad, ability, experience. He then compare and better understand the hardships, difficulties, and the conditions of our country. includes too well that in this country, as it is, people born in disadvantaged has increasingly more difficult to come true.
A report released just three days ago, reports - without finding out for more hot water - as 70% of children who have the best results come from wealthy families. "44% of architects is the son of architects. 42% lawyers and notaries is the son of lawyers and notaries. 60% of pharmacists is the son of pharmacists. "
It 's a shame. It 's the first confirmation of assertions, namely that we live in a medieval society with no mobility, which forces the weak to a perpetual state of minority. We think that everything can still be tolerated?
This raises an issue of equality, which is to be understood and addressed, not as in the old Marxist theorization a company level, but as equal starting conditions for all, just as our states Constitutional Charter.
this new generation, not of a political and social representation, and of hope, the socialists should be able to say: "Riappropriatevi policy." Rebuild with opportunities for participation and comparison sites outside of old dogmas and new barriers.
I say this because I would not like the bi-polarity that has corroded and poisoned the political life of our country, our minds and corrode also those of future generations, and insanely do think that it can or should also applied the idea, the solution of problems that should be instead shared.
It is curious that those who look overseas for more phenomena difficult to emulate in Italy transmutable the continent, then forget the admonition of Roosevelt, who asserted that "there is no way the right or left to build houses, bridges, roads, etc.. is no right way or wrong way. " In Italy, however, are even arguing and speculating about the emerging and misfortunes.
Our political system, in the city was dying, he created a climate of perpetual confrontation and a balkanization of the country life. The reasons not to be found only in today, but you have to go back to its start.
Almost two decades ago, has resulted in a system whose base there was the exaltation of the anti-political "isms" (justice-, populist, extremist) based on ambiguity and double standards. His attempted ongoing review was even worse, with the 'emphasis of its anti-democratic and authoritarian character.
The democratic crisis was then systematically implemented by majoritarian electoral laws and bipolar that have overwhelmed the real parties, which gradually lost their national function, thus creating a weak point right in the South.
It becomes even more dramatic in the never resolved "southern question" that emerges today in all its disruptive nature, posing as a democratic emergency - law-abiding, even before the economic problem, and that is instrumentally by mail only certain claims for funds.
a social force, suited to the interest in history and tradition national, who had no primary responsibility of government in recent years, it has all the credentials to be a force for change credible, especially when a decision will also put the need for a new political and institutional framework of the country.
This is essential if we want to give resolution to the ongoing conflicts that occur between the authorities and state bodies, which represent one of the chronic ills of this country, as the events of recent days, show only too clearly.
must restore the guarantee thresholds provided in the Constitution for the election of the super-parters and constitutional reforms, ensuring that they coincide with the majority of government. We need rules and proclamations of good intentions among the coalitions, which in addition to leave time that they find, have to deal with the extremists that have always characterized the darkest pages of history.
Comrades, do not do it long and I am going to conclude.
This challenge that we launch today has perhaps the taste of the bitter, because it is strong in us the weight of past defeats daughters of errors that too often we could not avoid and do avoid.
on everyone, and it is good that we say, lies the failure of a Socialist Constituent Assembly which had thrilled and gave hope to thousands of activists, myself included, but the refractoriness of certain political leaders has undermined efforts. What came next and they are now, is even more miserable because nothing about the policy, but it is only the logic of "keep the family"!
Today we share and we are moving in inaccessible paths, but we certainly orphans and stragglers, unlike others, because they are deep our roots and the deep conviction of being on the right track, which just so happens, is also the only one for those who believe, as we believe, by force of reason and not just feelings, the need that in Italy there is under a socialist, secular, liberal.
post tangentopoli All attempts to rebuild a social force had problems with the disastrous choice of bi-polar. We, today, strongly reject this plan and tell the country that the Socialists regain their autonomy, which is characteristic of the most beautiful and exciting in their history, which is neither isolationist nor opportunism, but it is freedom of processing before and after the alliance.
This is the meaning of our actions. How to read an old maxim socialist "Do what you can, come what should"! We will do everything within our reach.
None of us knows what awaits us in the future, but certainly it can not be worse than the recent past. Legs behind his companions, the road is long. The conditions are favorable. We also hope his luck. The wind still blows of socialism.
