Italy is in the knee between the economy and institutional crisis in red But information does not tell
'The number of enterprises that have difficulty growing, and even if only 5 percent that would be 250 thousand companies that are at greatest risk of survival, "he says Corrado Passera. "I am 50-60 thousand companies facing closure from here to year end," adds Ivan Malavasi, president of the National Confederation of Crafts. And the European Commission for Economic Planning provides more unemployment until 2011. To give notice of the reality we think only the army of the Web?
Peter Orsatti on Earth on Sunday
From 1969 onwards, whenever there is a period of difficult relations between the social partners and the Government at the end of summer, talk of "hot autumn". And we knew, this year too, that what we are experiencing it was a very warm autumn. But not only for strictly economic aspects, but also and especially from the political point of view. Too many nodes are coming home to roost. Starting from the standpoint of justice, from that of the double and triple blackmail. We expected threats and revelations, files and counter-dossier. As we expected that the 'information, now deployed and with so much of his helmet on his head, was used as a weapon against one party or another. Everything went like a script. We expected this because the picture shows one of this country 'Italy is deeply divided, both culturally and politically and in terms of territorial and economic.
While the openings of newspapers and Tg continue to focus, even morbidly, on scandals, files, all internal controversy only the ruling class, be on stage quite another reality. That the devastating effects of the economic crisis, millions cassaintegrati between unemployment and the entire production facility (including small and medium engine of history 'economy nationally) that risks collapse and the bank route, split the forces now seemingly irretrievable unions (the signing separate agreements is no longer an exception but the rule), an 'opposition politics on the one hand and the other remaining in search of an identity that now seems quite impalpable and probably tomorrow, impractical (all contradictions' procedure of Pd are countless, well beyond the already glaring discrepancies of support and Bassolino Lorier) who seems totally inappropriate to address the consequences of the crisis and to find workable solutions. No place on average the national event on 6 November Fiom in Bergamo. No place workers in Arese - Fiat - forced to block the A8 to draw attention to the threatened closure of the historic establishment, and the resulting 1,000 workers home. And then the workers Merloni appliances that gave work to the whole of Umbria-Marche Apennine area, with 7,000 employees, now in administration subsidiary, and climbed the tower of bells Nocera Umbra in Perugia to scream that "must Merloni live. And yet the employees of Agile-Eutelia, 1200, engaged in a struggle for months that require the "invitation of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers. And the workers Phonemedia, company that manages call centers, nearly 7,000 employees, having to ask for a table at the Ministry of Economic Development to find out where they finished six months of salary arrears, and also workers Abs, Special Equipment Burners Cologno Monzese, in a permanent assembly. And despite the company is not about navigating the waters in the worst, the 5700 workers made redundant in the Nokia-Siemens, with a reduction in costs of 500 million euros a year. These are just some examples of conflicts in our country but that the public does not know whether at local, phenomena that no one report in a general framework.
Bad Second Republic
And then there's the event of the birth mother of the Second Republic, which emerges clearly from today's investigations of the negotiation between state and mafia, interlacement incredible that led some other overt and covert powers to seek a viable solution for continuity and follow it through illegality, deception, unspeakable pact. The Second Republic, reading the papers of the processes, testimonies, memories of late many of the protagonists of the time (and today) was never born. One in which we live, this is now feeling more and more widespread, and the effect of a camouflage of those powers which led to the collapse of clean hands, the massacres of 1992-1993, dell'implosione (only apparent) of the party system , the liquidation of the public but not toward privatization and liberalization wild speculation that has effectively dismissed an entire economic system which, for better or worse, had held up the 's Italy for more than forty years.
What does the biennium 1992-1993 with the economic crisis? Nothing directly, but how the 'Italy is facing today a lot. In a country that has slowly de-industrialization, with a huge debt, with a class policy and administrative devoted mainly to preserve their privileges, it is inevitable that a serious economic and financial world have devastating effects. Especially since arrived and has developed into a system, one Italian, totally unprepared.
"The number of enterprises that have difficulty growing, and even if it was only 5 percent that would be 250 thousand companies that are at greatest risk of survival." This hypothesis advanced by the CEO of Intesa Sanpaolo, Corrado Passera two days ago during a conference. The media have not spoken almost in spite of the CEO of one of the country's biggest banking group photographs, with clarity, the effects of international economic crisis in Italy. To act as his "shoulder" the president of the CNA (National Confederation of Crafts), Ivan Malavasi, who has shown an alarming fact. According to him, in fact, have 50 thousand-60 thousand companies facing closure from here to year end.
Applications for late autumn
The European Commission for Economic Planning presented the report in Brussels for the autumn economic forecasts, which stipulates that the bar will rise in unemployment in the Eurozone from 9.5 in 2009 to 10.7 in 2010 to get to 10.9 in 2011. Unbelievable that these statements have not found, large average national due importance. Instead there are at least disguised within swill reassuring, if not ignored. Ignored, we fear, not so much to hide the impact of this news, as a collective underestimation of the social repercussions, economic and political will in the future, when the recovery will indeed around the world and we, now totally unstructured, we will able to identify the current and we will be crushed by competitors far more organized and to have invested at all levels (from the reorganization of administrative and infrastructure), and then will face a preparation phase of strong international competitiveness.
It is to be a mountain of questions in this late fall. It is to have the nerves to identify both personally and collectively what to do and how. In this country stuffed with a pseudo reality raith media system is the enormous need to tell the real life, the needs and aspirations of the Italians. And the media seem to be traditional in a strong position. Even many of those who had declared to be the spokesman of these instances of truth. In some ways the Web is to make up for this absence of information, discussion of representation.
The examples are many of these experiments, thankfully succeeded: from www.agoravox.it to www.antimafiaduemila.com from www.dazebao.org to www.crisitv.wordpress.com from www.ucuntu.org at www. liberainformazione. org. And then thousands of blogs, pages, video. And the books that become natural place, given the impossibility of finding space on average, 's investigation. As the theater than ever at this stage has become a carrier of stories based on real complaints, timely journalistic research. Alternative means, so many and diverse, which is slowly and inexorably emerging force in numbers. Millions of people who every day try the news and the story that the collective media no longer provide. Numbers which, if added together, show how the thirst for information there is in Italy.
The dream, in this fall, is that all these fragments are a summary and a meeting between them, which together form a critical mass, revealing the reality of the country not only in small sectors of public opinion, but through a process of networking and amplification become (collectively) a new medium. Made of many, not solitude. Watch out, timely, informed and understandable. Which has only one formidable and revolutionary goal: to tell.
