Can the Democratic Party survive without Berlusconi?




Saturday afternoon is a demonstration held in Rome for the freedom of the press in Italy , according to the `opposition, would be in grave danger. Subsequently, there is `was the usual dance of figures on the real presence at the event, which, however, was successful.
Consequently, it can be considered a success that can serve to cement at the moment an opposition divided and lacks a clear plan and clear and able to find consensus and homogeneity in the name of `only` antiberlusconismo.
The PD would be the renewal of the Italian party, the real break with the world of the Cold War and the First Republic. A
politic "in which men and then flowed into the history and culture of the Old Left Democrats and the Communist Party, with the aim of creating a modern European left.
In reality, this party modern, European, post-Communist has not so far seen the light.
The reasons can be many but, from my point of view, two are predominant: the lack of a courageous, even painful analysis of its historical past, a Jacobin interpretation of `political struggle. By the end
the Cold War, in all countries of Europe, albeit in different ', the communist parties have come to terms with their history, they have faced and discussed their allegiance to Soviet totalitarianism, their complicity with an oppressive regime and freedom. This
while causing short-term spin-offs and loss of consensus, has allowed many of them to redefine themselves as left-wing parties Post Feed really Communists.
In Italy, the communist left, paradoxically, with the defeat of communism has finally had the possibility of coming to power nationally.
It has been a sufficient "maquillage" dialectical and symbolic, on `long wave of" clean hands ", the Communist left became the "new" party automatically became a modern post Cold War. That
historical conjuncture has meant that the Italian left, not only have carefully avoided to analyze their past, their mistakes and horrors but have done to enhance its historical path.
In this way, however, `the various post-communist parties, have never had a real credibility especially since they have decided to stand up to censors of vice and protectors of the public Virtue.
Goals, according to their offense, only through the policy of disposing of the opponent responsible for the degeneration of social and civil Berlusconi. The recent behavior of
Prime Minister are objectively quite questionable, Because, his demonization is a process that began back in 1994 left.
since the mid-nineties the Left, especially the so-called moderate, instead of criticizing the premier choices for the wrong policies he promoted a campaign of criticism on any a priori attitude and policy promoted by Berlusconi. This is
antiberlusconismo been carried out with such vehemence and urgency, especially by intellectuals, which is become a sort of "passport" without which there is no right to enter the left.
This attitude, however `resulted, for opposite reasons, serious consequences for the same accident.
fact, moralistic and censorious campaign did not get support among the moderates, but at the same time, he "fondamentalizzato" the party's electoral base.
The moderates did not like a political vision focused on the demonization of the opponent and at the same time, they considered not credible political actors who act as moral censors, never having a renegade political support and economic and political dependence on the a totalitarian power responsible for millions of deaths.
The leftists, however, have strongly shared the interpretation of their leaders and their newspapers, that `s` widespread illegality, immorality `l`, the social cohesion are not strangers to their share policy, and are exclusively the result of the `existence of Silvio Berlusconi, through his immense power with no Italians in the ability to reason, that is to vote left.
With fifteen years of this policy, the moderate left is to become a victim if stessa.Come veltroniana experience has demonstrated the bankruptcy, in fact, the foundation does not accept even a partial break with the `antiberlusconismo, considered not sufficient but necessary and unavoidable.
Moreover, just when with Veltroni tried timidly to abandon the `antiberlusconismo, the Democratic Party is allied with Di Pietro, new Saint Just, who was antiberlusconismo` s the essence of his program. The consequence of this
strategy is contradictory been soundly defeated in the general election, the people left who awarded the only one with carrying out no ifs and buts `s antiberlusconismo. Thus I
, the PD is not left to run for cover, trying to reclaim the role of party inquisitor, purifying the vices of the Italians.
Hopefully in the coming years intellectuals and left-wing politicians understand that the axiom `intelligent people as free and honest vote that inevitably left and only for them who still believe in the moral and intellectual superiority of the left.
We hope that they understand that without having come to terms with their past, and without having a consistent behavior, are not reliable as censors vice, are simply hypocrites.
We hope that this will happen for the good of this country, in need of a modern secular left and the West.
