Thursday, January 20, 2011

90 years and feel that despite the collapse of Eastern European countries and the Bolognina, that story is still alive in the memories of people, a wound that burns in the political history of millions Italians. The evening
90 years on the PCI, organized by the CIPEC (Center for political and cultural initiatives) at Dolphin House in Cuneo, saw a good audience participation. Along with the president of Sergio Dalmasso, speaker of the evening was a prof. Aldo Agosti, a professor of history at the University of Turin and author of important essays on the history of the labor movement and Communist.
After an introduction on the central passages of 70-year history, during the debate was that the specificity of the Italian Communist Party than to those in Europe. A party born from one of the many divisions of the Italian left, but the back had a clear and precise, thanks to the great quality of its management team: Gramsci, Bordiga, Togliatti, Terracini ... And in the years of European fascism emerged consistency and determination to fight for democracy, more than what the liberal movement that came in a dramatic crisis in years 20 and 30.
was certainly a party that educate millions of people to be citizens of the new Republic, for example, was essential and unique contribution to the drafting of the Republican Constitution.
Togliatti and the leadership out of the war, despite having a close relationship with the USSR, started a mass party which helped to build democracy in Italy and developed its own cultural policy since the publication of the "Prison Notebooks "Antonio Gramsci.
Of course the more dramatic decline of the communist system undermined the unity of the Party, but the ability to be "other" saved him from a crisis that instead there was between the 70 and 80. Berlinguer was the last secretary to be able to have, as we would say today, an "emotional connection" with its own people.
But the collapse of the Soviet regime overthrew a party that sought now, by dint of innovations (?), To clean up by the story, sometimes falling into real, denials.
remains unsolved the final question, that even this meeting was unable to clarify: it was inevitable that ended at the PCI Bolognina or you could find another way to re-establish the ideal of liberation and equality that moves, moves, and perhaps even today, the political passions of millions of people?
The application shows its most dramatic day in the squalor that we live in today, where a political crisis does not find adequate answers to the left. For many participants it is still warning that Gramscian pessimism of reason that is fought daily by the optimism of the will, the need to try to build the "future city" of free men and women from the chains that the first piece of the PCD ' I wrapped this great and terrible world.
