How Long Do Artificial Replacements Last

policy document Intervention




final policy document of the first Regional Congress of

SEL Emilia-Romagna

The Political Committee and share the report of the outgoing Regional Coordinator.
We live in a region that has been able to represent a model of government for the left. He did it from an idea of \u200b\u200bgood and full employment, from a welfare system advanced and innovative, built by a community cohesive and united in pursuing the dream of a different society.

Over the years, however, inspiration is blurred, giving way to the administration of a precious heritage and yet constantly depleted. The policy has lost the ability to be constantly striving for the future, to become a place of conciliation of interests increasingly irreconcilable with the global shift from the age of the Keynesian compromise to that of neo-liberalism. Today crisis shakes the latest certainties, disseminating our territories terrible signs of layoffs, the loss of jobs, insecurity, fear and insecurity posts. The fiscal policies of the right of Berlusconi and Tremonti do the rest, undermining the foundations of the welfare of the vicinity, forcing region and local authorities to take further steps in the dismantling of social safety nets.
We do not hold up, if we can not clearly speak the vocabulary of the alternative, if we are not able to reconnect politics and society together to build the foundations for a new deal for citizenship.

compels us an awareness that the crisis gives us a reality of structural unemployment, the environmental constraints prevent us from solving with the lever of externalities. At the same time assume the knowledge that Italy today discounts the weight of an annuity that locks the financial and real estate investment opportunities and innovation.

Therefore, we propose to direct our political action according to the axes of the protection of land, conversion of the green economy, investment in knowledge, research and innovation, the introduction of forms of citizen's income. For this reason we believe that politics should regain its ability to shape the future through planning and forms of intervention that may go beyond the overused formula of the address and control. This applies to the choice of the next Strategic Plan and Regional Territorial, which should be directed to the reduction of impacts and resource saving and environmental commons. Similarly, it must address the debate on the management of health services, childcare and long-term care, which is to rethink the relationship with the private sector, which too often has meant fewer rights for workers and lower quality, are Directive to review the parameters of regional accreditation.

The alternative is right before our eyes and sweet talks the language of the family, intended as a substitute for welfare cleared and given women, the first expelled or forced to leave the working dimension, as well as more precarious and threatened by an unacceptable increase in the pension. Or the most harsh and strident mass of insecurity of employment blackmail and competition between workers. A war without war.

out of the crisis it means out of the model that produced it, from a new center of employment, an inclusive and universal welfare, and an ecological revolution in the manner and purpose of production. Left

Ecology Liberty believes that Emilia Romagna can go back to being a model of government change. There are in fact in our areas of human resources and economic, cultural and political conditions for this to happen. However, you need a strong policy intervention, a new narrative that can call into range the size of a collective project.

We believe that the center is the area where this can happen, without yielding to the UDC and other centrist forces of inspiration. Starting with local elections next spring so we are committed to building alliances to bring out the center where the central themes of our political initiative. The stage at which we move is the sunset of Berlusconi, who is accompanied by attack on the industrial relations system and union built after World War II carried out by Marchionne. At stake are the role of the union, workers' rights, the same position in the world-Italy. The Government has already shown with the "reform" Gelmini to share an approach that puts our country in the global periphery. The left must be able to live the opposite idea of \u200b\u200brevival of democracy inside and outside the workplace, a startup that makes the economic cycle research, innovation and culture, the true axis of development, who is engaged and speak the language of secularism, the reduction inequality and the rights of citizenship from the extension of voting rights for the immigrant population.

The issue of gender difference, freedom and leadership of women must be taken not as an issue among many, but as a matter of paradigm for the renewal of the policy, with the need to rewrite the relationship between the sexes and strengthen Regional initiatives on prevention of violence against women shake.

We ask, finally, the primary coalition, which can not be the victim of tactics and fears. We ask not because we are convinced of our strength, but because otherwise aware of our failure, the condition of asphyxia living rooms of a separate policy.

The primaries are the means to define the scope and content of alliances. Without them, the center will drift over to a political nature that can only lead to defeat. It's our people that they should be the star of a season of change, which can only start from a great way to participate in fundamental decisions.

The newly elected Regional Assembly, which met after the Congress unanimously elected, reappointment, John Paglia as Regional Coordinator of SEL Emilia-Romagna regional and Lorenzo Cipriani as Treasurer.
