Rereading thoughts of the past: an apparent democracy.
reject the feudal mode of understanding politics Loyalty, betrayal, endowments, treachery, ingratitude are words which in everyday life take on a strong and current meaning, applied to give the same political connotations of the past, that us back quickly in the Middle Ages, with those almost feudal ways of understanding politics in which there are plenty of vassals, Valvassori and of course the poor people in the uncomfortable role of valvassini if \u200b\u200bnot serfs.
There are those who in recent years has succumbed to the temptation to resurrect these categories accepted by the ruler of turn (honorable senator or Regional Council) to the endowment over the feud Galatina and vassal in return for loyalty and service has perpetual received material benefits, power and territorial immunity on the misdeeds perpetrated in the exercise of power.
Here is the oath of the vassal pseudo many politicians have spoken, perhaps with different words but with the same spirit of a time:
"To this wonderful gentleman I, the such. Since it is well known da parte di tutti che io non ho di che nutrirmi o vestirmi, io ho richiesto alla pietà vostra, e la vostra benevolenza me lo ha concesso, di potermi affidare e accomodare al vostro mundio, e così ho fatto; cioè che tu debba aiutarmi e sostenermi, tanto per il vitto quanto per il vestiario, secondo quanto io potrò servire bene e meritare; e, finché io vivrò, ti dovrò prestare il servizio ed ossequio dovuti ad un uomo libero e non potrò sottrarmi per tutta la mia vita alla vostra potestà o mundio, ma dovrò rimanere finché vivrò nella vostra potestà e protezione” Succubi, stremati e depauperati nei propri valori e nelle tradizioni, i valvassini galatinesi hanno, in un recente past, placed their hope in a young woman who looked like the daughter of Providence. It seemed, because then the proof of facts has become director of the appearance of chaos, giving almost the final blow to the remaining hopes of the poor to purchase 11,000 common people who sought only to be well governed and joyous in her and in his war machine had believed. A new opportunity has been granted by law, even if sovereign and vassals they would rather avoid, in just over three months valvassini if \u200b\u200bthey have the power but even more the desire to believe, looking for a new chance for redemption, certainly not will be the last but it is certainly the most important in recent years, for better or evil.
Galatina a city out of this world? It would seem so, not only because there are no more kings and vassals, but also because the balance of power in the democratic world, Western and more or less liberal, they can no longer rely on the loyalty of "personal" being based on a shared project of a route on the consonance between programs and ideas. If the policy was based on the medieval "feudal" contemporary should, if anything, based on the pact among equals: the alliance, rather than the endowment. Discourse in contemporary society should apply to all relationships of trust, for those of elected representatives and voters, but also for those of elected and elected officials. And in any case, is to support political action in modern systems, sharing that is sealed with the "gift", but it rewrites and restores daily. A covenant not between riders, but among citizens. No "free", but only belief, brief, and smile that anyone would even think of even set parameters on the feudal politics of today.
Some people today on the political scene Galatina looks like something different, not "new" but alternative , knowing that the new absolute in life as in politics does not exist, Antoine Lavoisier second thought that "nothing si crea, nulla si distrugge, tutto si trasforma.” e ne siamo convinti anche noi. Galatina in Movimento , teorizzato da due o tre amici con passate esperienze politiche, nasce e cresce non “per” qualcuno ne tanto meno “contro” qualcuno, ma per la volontà di un gruppo di uomini e donne provenienti prevalentemente dalla società civile che ambisce ad essere qualcosa di alternativo, che possa contribuire a sopperire alle mancanze della politica partitica. Una connotazione alternativa che ci siamo imposti sin da subito nella consapevolezza che solo in questo il movimento troverà la sua legittimazione.
Complesse e complicate, principalmente per chi sino ad oggi la politica l’ha that suffered the most experienced, have presented the methods and routes to be taken to give the coveted connotation of "alternative". This perspective, perhaps the simplest way, a road and maybe arrogant megalomaniac who planned to go all the way in happy solitude, but we are neither arrogant nor megalomaniacs, we are men and women moderates who do not believe to be "bearers of absolute truth" or believe that beyond the fence there is the "absolute evil", then we would be able to share the road with men and women of good will, even under the banner of other parties or movements, but with ethical principles coincide with ours. You want it, no ifs and buts, knowing that if we do not have everything you need there certainly concerned about the idea of \u200b\u200b"happy solitude." We want to make a contribution to the rebirth of Galatina, aim straight at the Palazzo Orsini but not at any cost and at any price, we will never be available to trade our dignity for a few crumbs of power.
E 'then necessary to make distinctions, starting from specific conditions, listen and, if possible, share the journey with those who believe a serious and reliable for the city firmly rejecting the many "mermaids" singing at our door but do not guarantee those principles for us indispensable. This requires prudence, such prudence, especially in a scenario present when the rule is unreliable and seems sometimes to watch a game of "all against all, where, depending on the convenience of the moment and that later changes, with confidence you subscribe alliances and identifying new enemies at every breath. It 's sad and depressing to see today as the majority of parties in the scene do not know what role play, because once again the vassals Galatina must show loyalty and obedience to the "ladies" of the moment and wait "provisions" in which nothing will be given to the needs of the city and a lot will depend on the political needs and then as regional or provincial bind the waiting time in this if not "playing" the statesmen? Sorbiamoci what has been called the period of "consultation" for free access, and indeed often ineffective. And 'this condition Galatina today.
no skill "magician" can and must find accommodations in Galatina in Motion, or transformed professionals who have made the "nomadic" their political faith of a strong electoral dowry sometimes dubious worth downgrading of
Movement by hope Alternatively a short list of classical civic in Galatina, I suppose, it does not feel the need.
