's speech opening the academic year at Bocconi is yet another demonstration that something is not working in the sphere of Italian intellectual debate. The concepts expressed by the dean, Guido Tabellini, did not cause reactions, have been ignored, at best, or censored, intentionally ignored by those who want to advertise the enemy. Because this is the climate that reigns in Italy, we read in secret to tell me how a spy would not argue with you when you say sensible things, do not you do your advertising risk losing support to do sensible ideas to my party. The climate is the same as you breathe in the years of lead, found that there is no escape from the pen of ideological militancy is something that anger and pain at the same time. People on the street at the end or is not interested in politics because it has no intention of becoming a neurotic and quarrelsome person who is always there to fight for something on the order of the party even when it's worth, or end up convinced that the policy is basically the equivalent typhoid sports: Choose your team and on all others, and why not, even the referee.
The media in Italy survive on public money, they kneel in front of them who could dismiss with a phone call or fling with the cunning of the dog biting the enemy to attack the master politician who protects them. It is a serene, except for some who have renounced the career but do not throw away the moral and ethical integrity, the Italian journalism is not professional but it is pure militancy sided and biased. It is normal to be so where is the policy that pays the salaries of journalists. In this situation there is a selection of stories that do not even need an office of censorship fascist regimented for the information and guide public opinion in a fraudulent manner, in fact the journalists censor, or use the thousand tricks which provides the rhetoric to manipulate, exploit, distort the ' information in such a way that goes to provide advantage to their party reference. I even heard considered and respected journalists (Scalfari in a recent interview) boast of providing information on behalf of a political party.
If a party leader goes on TV or in newspapers to express an idea stupid, banal, formulated with the boldness of the brother of a lower order who trains in his sermons as he would do a little cell a Jesuit or a Barnabas, the next day everyone is talking about. If a news item can be used to support positions here is self-evident that a tam-tam deafening to highlight which side are the good and pure, to cry and show the stupidity and evil political opponent. In the many huge problems that Italians are so obvious as to ignore some of what journalism is of little importance since the media are intermediaries between political power and the electorate. What sounds absurd is that rather than assert their independence from politics and take their important public responsibilities as a hotbed of ideas in the country, as a square in which the best minds are invited to discuss complex and sensitive issues, the Italian journalist forced to stay in the trenches to defend their party even when he is wrong to attack a political opponent when he is right, no longer even have the strength to lift his head.
not just Tabellini, this is just the latest example (the text is here http://www.viasarfatti25.unibocconi.it/notizia.php?idArt=6592 ) of many that are known and have a very large daily, sometimes it seems like a stupid news recurrence and is filed everywhere just to divert attention from news that another, for duty or distraction, has managed to head over the surface of official major newspapers. The internet reflects the traditional media as the most popular blog, apart from those who, using the marketing ploy typical of the analog world, they get access through advertising and branching of mutual goodwill and mutual understanding, are given by journalists or people who want to be a journalist. There are exceptions that are way to express themselves on the net where they could not elsewhere. There are discordant voices that seek to make sound, independent information on the internet in Italy as happens in democracies worthy of being called such. Unfortunately, these voices, like that of Tabellini, are deliberately or foolishly ignored by those who constitute other gear, other processes, the adoption of the infectious Italian mentality, which is realized with attitudes, habits, implicit rules, a set of intangible characteristics that can be defined congenital mafia.
Tabellini Or maybe what he says, the complaint of an underlying problem that is purely cultural, not worth being discussed, does not raise questions, urges understanding, not food for thought serious consequences. Judge for yourself if you can, if you feel free to have an opinion of your own, gained insights and arguments. But when we take the party you most comfortable / mother / church on everything and you feel dirty and bad also only speculate to think otherwise, then let it be, just read the articles written by journalists in his pocket a card of your party, pay attention only to what the party believes are not too dangerous for your mental health. We live in a reeducation camp as big as the whole state, plagued by a continuous and incessant propaganda that poisons the existence of the good people of good sense, exasperated and resigned, pulling the cart every single day. Then someone will wonder if young people want to flee abroad, if they prefer to stay single and unemployed than being bottled by the state more than they already are by the mere fact of being born here.
