Interview with Renato Nicolini
is not known whether the late former Councillor for Culture in Rome, Renato Nicolini, will be whether or not the match in the race for secretary of the Democratic Party. Former member of the Constituent Assembly of the Democratic Party, and affiliated in 2009 to attend the Congress, however al'Altro Nicolini explains how they envision the new Democratic Party and the positive qualities of such carriers are candidates running for office.
What news regarding his application?
"It seems difficult to be able to collect 2000 signatures and deliver them tonight (Yesterday ed) in Sant'Andrea delle Frate. I know that in Gela, Sicily, have signed my application for a hundred people. Certainly, the Garibaldi we did with 1000 I need little more. "
What is wrong with the Democratic Party?
"The mistake was made at the start. We are always merging the DS and the Margherita. The cocktail is not well managed. Just look at the final number of subscribers. If the result is less than the sum of the parts in question then it means that the operation failed. Data provided by Pd we have read in the newspapers that talk about a number of Final members coming to 700,000 are well below the amount of members that Ds and Margaret had at the time of dissolution, a million if I remember correctly. Even in the rush to office showed again that this merger failed in the race exemplifies a former Democrats and former Margaret. And then there's this strange desire to want to look like agtli United States even in the graphics and the use of words such as 'Democratic Party'. "
What are the references that he would like for the new party?
"I think it would just read a reference to America down and that Hollywood really able to tell what was the United States. But even the great season of the democratic struggle of the 60 'and 70' in Italy, the works councils, the revolution of 30 and honors and employment of Architecture of the 63 '. There is a statement asking different, better. Another important reference is the concept of freedom expressed by the Communist Galvano della Volpe. "
Why did not prevail and that left those cultural references?
"68 'from a certain point of view has been signed for the student protests of the 60s (and perhaps not at the top) and the beginning of something that went beyond politics in the rejection of collective organizations that lasted then for all 70 'and that still survives today.
In essence, the movement to be imputed to the PCI anachronistic well before the collapse of the Berlin Wall. The PCI then acted opportunistically in first and then with the closing of the ecumenical group, which resulted in the expulsion of the poster. This was the moment of the birth of a large extra-parliamentary left. "
What do you expect from the congress of the Democratic Party?
"In Italy today opened a major issue of democracy which is represented by the attack to all the self: the judiciary, the University, the Theatre, Film, Rai, intellectual work. All these areas are treated according to the motto Reagan "Starve the beast until it's tame." As just one example, after an article like the one published by the Corriere della Sera Giavazzi, which states that if you close 20% of Italian universities is good news, a major party would have to take to the streets. I know what I would do in place of the leaders of the Democratic Party? "
What?
"If I become secretary of the Democratic Party today, immediately organized a general strike of Culture. I'd cross my arms to all those who work in Rai, in film, theater, schools and universities. But I would also strike the workers of archaeological sites. I would do this to let you know how it compares and what it means to interact with culture. In 2011, just to go on concrete, the Ministry of Culture will no longer have the funds to do anything if you do not pay salaries to its employees. It takes a great choice for independence and if we start from here then federalism takes on a meaning, otherwise the key in the League is only the rejection of the prior relationship with their defects. "
To speak to large groups of people is not enough culture. What should the Democratic Party for being a great people's party?
"Again, I think a great example of local government are the experiences of 70 '. A Maxentius to see the films of the great auteur Cinephile would meet the boy and the township. Each of these masterpieces took something which then had left. And 'This is the function of Art, the ability to generate many different models. "
What do you think of the other candidates in the field?
"First I want to say that in a competition for the national secretariat of the Democratic Party there must always be a bond of brotherhood. Marino seems to me an interesting candidate because it is not enough evidence that the component ex-Ds and the former Margaret to represent the entire Democratic field, but need some libertarian and secular. But everyone understood that the Democratic Party is a bad start. Bersani gave a different perspective on alliances me seems more convincing than the majority of vocation Veltroni. Franceschini but I have a fond memory as Head of Culture of the Municipality of Ferrara. "
After 15 Berlusconi's idea that she has made about what should be the Democratic Party and the center in the future.
"Although there is much to be done. Berlusconi is still prime minister and there is already talk of post Berlusconi. Rather than envisage a cultural feel different names that could happen from Dragons to Fini. The left or the center but do not seem to have a clear vision on the future of the country. Berlusconi won, ricordiamocelo forever, who has made political use of its television and culture easy, superficial and hedonistic that was able to represent. E 'on the cultural terrain we have to fight the challenge and also in our country has perhaps given a bit' annoyed by the fact that it is not abused too at times of political and cultural initiatives. Head of Culture from the City of Rome have never climbed on a stage, yet it is not that I was not able to speak in public. "
