First of all thank Alex for having driven the blog with a debate on a crucial issue today and on all the news.
Clearly, my position is slightly different from that of Alexander.
Starting from the sentence of a book that some 'time ago I was given. It is titled "How are the Italians?" Jivis Tegna author is a freelance journalist arrived in Italy in 1992. In the chapter on immigrants (it was called) says, "for Italy often come to men and foreign women, besides using all their money, they resort to collections or family loans that will be added to the sum that, when possible, is sent by a brother or a relative already settled in Italy, "" Once in Italy, many non-EU realize that the nation is not for them, in most cases are completely excluded from society and, consequently, they do not feel the need or desire to integrate ";" the need to live in housing in many small stems from the high price of housing rents and low wages that employers give Italian "; "More than once that has happened to me while I was with my friends, or at the market square or at a bus stop or in the crowd, is that police officers have asked us for documents and I have rarely seen the same scene to Italians. "
What do we care, many will say .., then if we work until the evening of asylum to pay fees for our children? What do we care if we can not afford decent housing if not accessing it through substantial contributions to family (for those who can afford it!) Or loans that are unlikely to be accessible and "manageable" for young people? What do we care if criminal acts are involved then many immigrants and our city \u200b\u200b"-seem to be" less safe?
My passion for politics, for a precise alignment (which fortunately is radically modernizing), comes from having shared certain principles from his youth that the center-left-promoted and that you have created the very existence in the late '800, '900 early. It seems to me useful in this debate to take back at least 2 and apply to globalized modernity:
EQUALITY: Engels said that "" And so the inequality is transformed in turn into equality, but not in the ancient natural equality of men devoid of primitive language, but in the higher contract social. The oppressors are oppressed. It is the negation of negation. "Then the art. 3 of the Constitution states that All citizens have equal social dignity and are equal before the law, adding ... It is the responsibility of the Republic to remove those barriers economic and social order, which constrain the freedom and equality of citizens, prevent the full development of the human person ...
If a foreign national living and working regularly in our country, generally low-cost the employer, and pay their taxes, why should not they have the same rights and duties of the "native" perhaps on the basis of a social contract that can sign or which may be invested in public (look at what he does in that sense, Canada!)?
The real issue today in Italy, that the policy does not emphasize properly, I think it is the certainty of law and punishment. The latter in particular should hit all those Italians and foreigners who commit crimes. Unfortunately, the communication Berlusconi in recent years has taught us that justice can still get around and the detention is often not commensurate with the punishment. In addition to the right where you finished the mechanism of collective social sanctions? Because today we are afraid to go by, law enforcement (In respect of the roles and tasks that must be clear and known) to highlight a possible problem of crime, be it micro or macro? Because if a church there are no suspicious circumstances are put to the proper authorities? Because other situations (like what happens to the park Neverland) innoservate pass by the proper authorities? I believe these issues should be communicated and it is time that our generation is a serious effort to overcome some of the mechanisms of justice-political-economy which are rigid, stagnant and in need of a real "new era" to be even cracked.
attention to the most WEAK : this concept, so dear to the Catholic culture, needs to be restored and promoted. A new culture that you consider carefully the most vulnerable, not only foreigners can be pursued both through the symbols and communications but also through concrete commitments. I believe that attention to the weakest (solidarity) is not to be understood only in terms of monetary aid and not as well as opportunities for collective growth of people with whom we live daily. Why on television or in our territories, we tend to highlight examples and actions of those already stated? Because the actions and achievements of those who already have seem more important than others? I assure you that Last Friday, the Moroccan dinner organized Renazzo, the greatest thrill was to observe the happy look of women who, after preparing dinner for hours, were thanked by all the diners. Not to mention the faces and smiles of foreign children who were running and talking with us. Well I really think that the evening was the most beautiful and rich in any program on Sky or by Flemming (and very tasty!).
As for concrete commitments there is no doubt that such a new culture of respect for the environment should start from us by foreigners before ... that provide more housing to subsidized housing (for young and old) in future urban development is a task and duty of the government .. as well as the employer with a commitment to "exploit" but not to improve the quality of life and opportunities of their employees!
As Giddens says in his latest book (also wonderful) "Europe in the global age", "social solidarity is the integration of a networked society, from porous borders, where the positive citizenship creates a set effective social obligations and a well-defined culture of respect towards others, respect for life in meetings ranging from the everyday to the abstract relations with distant cultures "
Excuse the outburst, but I took the opportunity to say a few things I think! I think you can do. ... And still am convinced that we as a country (the number who cited the International
