In recent weeks I have given space in my blog a few thematic ideas not exactly local (pending getting to the heart of a very intense election campaign), has now returned to the subject of Anniversary Celebrations for the Unification of Italy . Why the controversy (and debates) were not certain dormant.
to reignite the story we thought the governor the province of Bolzano, Luis Durwalder, which has seen deliver a letter from the Quirinal Hill in which the President of the Republic Giorgio Napolitano expressed his "surprise and regret expressions with which the Hon. Durnwalder said the decision not to join in the celebrations of the 150th anniversary of Italy . The idea is as follows: f bones was a Northern League representative to speak the words of Durnwalder, what would be unleashed in Italy? Mr. Maria Luisa Gnecchi , born in 1953, Democratic Party, was also discussed in this hypothetical case, " a dual national and local valence " for the celebrations, because all in all " is not the case to impose a celebration of South Tyrol not heard" (quotation marks, I quote excerpts from an article in the local press "Alto Adige", 08:02:11). The site
" Austrians in Italy," read: "The incoming and elsewhere have already begun celebrations for the 150th anniversary of the unification of Italy is an issue that by its very nature lends itself to different and sometimes divergent interpretations . goes without saying that the most strongly nationalist approach appears to us of no use because of the need to propagate a kind of "doom" that sees the drive as an absolute value on the altar which summary justice is done to different stories, different affiliations, cultures and societies have developed substrates on socio-economic and linguistic characteristics of different kinds.
This is the unity for which there is only one "patriotic history" without ifs and buts, in which the myths are untouchable in their precarious historical justification, on pain of treason, an offense to the one and supreme spirit of the nation. And 'this a story as old as the world, where the winner takes possession of the moment than that of the conquered territory, including the history of population and which usually is used to mulch.
In such a framework does not matter if illustrious history argued eternal love between Garibaldi and the French rite of Savoy, or if that was a meeting of Teano or failure of the revolutionary idea. ... It does not matter if the so-called banditry Calabrese was in fact a Resistance movement which opposed the harsh Piedmont employment, even if hinged in a complex social system.
[...] In such a perspective that is important is to say after a resounding " ubi major minor cessat " the fundamental value of the process of the Risorgimento, unique and irreplaceable cement the national community. Gaetano Salvemini objected at the beginning of ' 900 .. "when the nationalist cicada begins to chirp, there is more room on the ground .. "and what sense is there in these words is there for all to see. Paradoxical consequence of this approach is to see the political culture of left to right, chasing a competition to see who flies more than three colors in the face to another, in a vortex of mutual accusations of lack of 'Italian'.
other is rather the approach that interests us, namely that of a constitutional pact, which sets out strongly after World War II the right to autonomy of our land, in the light of an international agreement and by virtue of a story " other "than the Italian and thus recognized and respected. The celebration of the 150 thus become an interesting approach to explore the historical theme of the emergence of the concept of the nation for what concerns the Italian context, and its constitutive process, developed in a framework of equilibrium "European" . Themes emerge as a result of the relationship between the rising bourgeoisie and the industrial revolution, the economic structure and the spatial scale within which it unfolds. Reflecting on the process thus
Italian unit thus becomes another opportunity to reflect on the relationship between the state and nation, between political and administrative vacuum contingency of identity: it s worth remembering as the federal idea, so strong and rooted in the Risorgimento movement, has been constrained by the centralization of Savoy, clearly oriented to the formation of a state modeled on the French [...]".
