Primarie. Mi spiegate per che cosa si vota?
Thursday October 11th, 2007 | 07:52 am | Uncategorized
What are we supposed to vote for, in the primary elections of the new Partito democratico? If the event is just the choice of the internal structure and of its leader, I will not vote because I do not belong to this Party; and in any case, if I decided to vote, I would choose Enrico Letta, the most courageous in renovating the programs of the Party. On the other hand, if the electors are called to choose the future candidate of the Centre Left coalition, somebody who might have a chance to beat Silvio Berlusconi, then I will think that going to the polls is my right and my duty; but in that case the only realistic choice would be to vote for Walter Veltroni.

The new Partito Socialista celebrated yesterday its rebirth with a meeting in which its leaders showed courage, ideas and good will. My relations with the Socialists have not been easy, in the past, but I am ready to place faith on the new initiative.

An article by the sociologist Luca Ricolfi confirms that in Italy we have three different political left wings: a radical left who dreams of revolutions and stops political reforms, a radical left who really wants to change the country by promoting meritocracy and dismantling privileges, and a so called “reformist†left who clings to this government trying to keep all the center –left groups together, but is less and less able to promote real changes.
Basta, avete vinto: c’è una sinistra radicale. Anzi due

Who is “radical” in Italy? The followers of Partito radicale or the former marxist left? The latter is winning the game on the media. But the “radical left” puts together people with very different ideas.
L’ombrello e la macchina da cucire

Still in 1975, in the Italian jails, women were not allowed to have newspapers or writing machines. They could just ask for a sewing machine. Remembering this episode, on the occasion of the death of Adele Faccio, the Radical leader who experienced this ridiculous gender discrimination, makes one think about the evolution undergone by this country in the last three or four decades. But watch out: they are trying to send us back to those times and even before!!!
