Democratic Left, statute oligarchicoda movement associazionecon summits devoted to cryo-preservation of
Veronica Marongiu
the provisional state of the Democratic Left has been designed by founding member and approved by the organizing committee. I invite you to read it.
I respect the work of others. But I would say something about this document, too. I do not agree with. I do not share the strong top-down approach that has been given to the organization. This statute has nothing to do with the idea of \u200b\u200bmovement that starts from below, involving people from civil society. That is what has been abundantly repeated until now. Because words have so far been wonderful. But the facts, documents, scripts, which manent and dictate the rules are awful. And betray the assumptions and expectations. No mercy.
read the statute, the strong confidence that I had put my SD in the draft has been lacking. Begins to meander in my mind the horrible suspicion that the whole operation SD, like that for the PD, is a process of cryopreservation for the benefit of some of the truth politics, especially at the most committed to defending and strengthening the positions of some of his lieutenants. It must be said that in Sardinia, From this point of view, we did not miss anything.
But I want to be optimistic and think that there is still time to correct the shot. I remember perfectly the day on May 5 in Rome and the beautiful weather that we all breathed, expanding the lungs for oxygen with well-founded hope that a different policy, a policy could be better. All those fine words about the Cultural Revolution and the political participation thrown to the wind!
And yes that Salvi had announced: "I do not disappoint you." How much did that phrase out of tune with the rest! As if we were in their hands, like people thinking just waiting for the Word. This is the end that made the concept of the democratic movement … All'apparir del vero tu, misera, cadesti …
Per entrare nel merito della questione, comincio ad analizzare il ruolo degli iscritti, ovvero di tutte quelle persone che, aderendo al movimento, devono farsi, a mio modo di pensare, democraticamente protagoniste del movimento stesso. Ebbene, il ruolo concepito nello statuto per gli iscritti è a dir poco fondamentale: essi hanno il diritto di partecipare all'attività dell'Associazione (… ma non era un movimento?) e, mano al portafogli, annualmente, l'obbligo di versare la quota di iscrizione.
Dette così, senza specificare altro, le parole “attività dell'Associazione”, chissà perché, mi evocano l'immagine del people sweating committed to roast sausages at parties, or with bubbles feet after a good day of leafleting, or even part of the picture a bit 'more intellectual of the people, engaged in endless discussions, little end in themselves; themes, however, quite important. This image takes concrete thanks to the clarification of a later article, which states that geographically you can even organize study groups or study groups.
After all, what should I expect from people who grew up politically in the DS? The mindset is. You just can not conceive, if not in words, the real change of things. Then there's this
bell'organismo called "Organizing Committee" which is plastered in pictures of the delegates as well as de-le-ga-te congress DS. And it is here that in fact the authors of the statute giving background to the concept of "extended to civil society movement" (more, obviously, could not conceive of former DS): indeed, one third of the organizing committee can be formed by various personalities , provided that their entry is approved by the organizing committee itself, which, at least during the start-up, consists of the usual suspects delegates at the congress of the DS.
I do not have it against the delegates. All people of great depth. Except that I have difficulty understanding, and it is my limit, as they did to approve this constitution. And the thought that these same people have the delicate task of deciding whether a person is or is not up to become a member of the organizing committee, leaves me puzzled.
Then, in front of all these security measures as they move along the document, I'm thinking that at least the organizing committee, so rigidly structured and designed, with all this intellectual potential of guest speakers and, I might add, of delegates to Congress of the DS, has some political significance within the movement. But, as you could tell from the name, the task of organizing committee is to launch the process of joining the movement.
And I think at this point finally be able to grasp the idea of \u200b\u200btruly innovative this beautiful state (in theory designed to regulate a broader political movement and wide-ranging), which is to disturb the personalities of the civilized world not to selfishly take advantage of the contribution they could make in terms content and ideas: no! To put more generously, without taking advantage too, in the window. The sole purpose of recovering accessions. An old trick of the party, to go ahead faces expendable, to broaden the consensus, while the strings are held by others.
After such an organization, which allows no doubt to create a movement that starts from the bottom, because, let's not forget, gives members the right to participate in unspecified "activities of the Association", unfortunately the only founding members left the power to take decisions on statutory and policy.
And we do not disappoint. Do not worry!
Fortunately, there is also a Board. The committee is made up, as well as parliamentarians and various institutional structures of SD, even by the coordinators of regions and metropolitan cities.
Now, after the havoc done to the detriment of democracy in previous articles, you do not spend a single word about how to become a regional coordinator and metropolitan cities (ie if democratic election or investiture), is purely coincidental. It is an oversight. Obviously. Besides, this is a temporary condition. Do not quibble. Who is the regional coordinator? The founders and their ideas in the eyes of members or members and their ideas in the eyes of its founders? Mah!
At this point I will say one thing loud, Salvi and all the founding members sit down to avoid fainting fits: power to the people. Will not disappoint you!
ideas on policy must come from below, as well as by persons of ordinary people. All must be consulted. The challenge is this. Encourage civil society to be convinced that his contribution and participation are required if you want to revive the fortunes of the country. The decisions on statutory political and must be taken by the meetings of members. The debates on various issues not only between members should keep in closed circles, continuous effort must be to involve new people every time. Even just find a way to do this solves the participatory aspect of the movement.
not easy, but we have groped with all our strength. Above all, the prelude and debates should be completed by the taking of decisions to weigh the scales on the honest and democratic both locally and nationally. The heart of the movement can not be delegates to the congress of the DS. Be patient! With all due respect. But in the statute, everything revolves around them. Around the founders.
The heart, from which the movement can draw strength, may be just the civil society. Even for a flake once and for all the voter-political dichotomy. The voter must be a political person, a person involved in politics. The participation of all involves the initiation of a subsequent vital process of accountability for all. Even the act of voting takes a different meaning, more complete. While the company needs a real re-education, rehabilitation, the use of its power house, this statute relegated once again to the eternal Electric passive role, at best stimulated by the lure of the name of the person on duty. Why are we fallen so
low? We were going well! In short, this is not the status of a movement. This is the status of small parties. Small parties flying quite low also, I think.
Force Gentlemen, start again. From the words that we said May 5.
