Why the Left and why Freedom
If as the Vittorio Di child in the recent television drama, we read, in the "book containing all the words in the world", the "Freedom" is written: "State of who is free, provided those who have the opportunity to act without being subject to the authority or dominion of another person; right to make their own choices and act according to their beliefs without infringing others' rights and respecting the rules of an organized system. "
The close correlation of freedom and justice, respect for individual rights and attention to the general interest, the claim of equal dignity and equality of every person and to ¬ set of common solidarity are some of the main poles ¬ of our Constitution (not all yet fully implemented), which reflect the values \u200b\u200band the most genuine antifascist resistance and which came to building the fabric of social and political life of the Italian public in the latter Re ¬ ¬ sessanten nio. The Italian Co ¬
institution has in fact only the nature of car ¬ tion of the "Rules" that must be followed for the proper functioning of public institutions ¬ public resources, but is primarily map of "values" that define the sense of collective ¬ tive, and are bound to create conditions for an orderly civil society.
The distinctive contribution of the left has always been and must be again to form an awareness of individual responsibility to the community. But this fcimento must now find, in my view, an innovative ability to rely on the ability to accompany the traditional rights struggle, the concept of duty in the same company. If you need to cultivate a sense of responsibility, it must at the same time accompagnarlo alle opportunità.
C'è un accordo tra la società e ciascuno dei suoi individui entro cui devono essere definiti tutti i compiti, sia quelli della società verso il cittadino che viceversa.
Il senso del dovere è la chiave di volta per una società decente e va oltre l'individualismo; definisce infatti il contesto in cui vengono date certe regole.
E’ un concetto personale ma è anche un obbligo verso la società. Il rispetto ed il senso di responsabilità verso gli altri sono un pre-requisito importante per una comunità forte ed attiva.
E’ il mezzo con cui possiamo costruire una società che non soffoca il nostro individualismo ma gli permette di svilupparsi in modo sano. Esso grants instinct with common sense, would not lead to a broader notion of human nature and consequently more accurate than the one on the narrow self-interest.
The rights we enjoy reflect the duties we have to observe. The rights and responsibilities of the individual is a crucial point that is included with the modern idea of \u200b\u200bcommunity.
Acceptance of duty without freedom is slavery, and freedom without obedience to the rules that there has been democratically data is arbitrary. It 's the model of freedom that accompanies the new Italian right: odd mixture of free will, neoautoritarismo and populism. On the contrary, the duty is binding la libertà e questa nobilita quello.
Diventare liberi non significa diventare grandi nel mondo, diventare liberi contro l’altro da se; significa diventare liberi da se stessi, dalla menzogna che mi fa credere che ci sono solo io, che sono io il centro del mondo; liberi dall’odio che ci fa annientare la natura; liberi da se stessi per gli altri.
Allora da tutto ciò si comprende come il reale significato di cittadinanza è il diritto di partecipazione ad una società in cambio del dovere di agire con responsabilità nei confronti di essa.
Per avere successo dobbiamo invece cooperare. Dobbiamo avere coscienza che la nostra prosperità è intimamente legata alla prosperità di coloro che ci stanno attorno.
We must understand that sharing a sense of belonging to the society around us is an essential part to resolve common problems.
short, it is not enough talk about the rules of democracy, which occupies the daily political debate, but there is a strong urgency of the reconstruction of public ethics. The public ethics
perimeter area of \u200b\u200bsharing, common civil loyalty, and holds fixed the terms of the covenant in which we strive to shape our collective forms of life and common institutions within which to pursue our different goals, ideals or interests.
But such ideas of public ethics can not arise from a profound statement a culture of individual responsibility, greater consciousness of the individual to a community of free men.
need to work on this route, to bring them all to take an active part in social life, to make all the taste and the sense of politics, to regenerate, in the collective motion of a renaissance, new circuits for the selection of the ruling classes.
The Left can not, even in the beginning of this new millennium, do not combine the traits of an ethics policy for the values \u200b\u200bof our cultural tradition that, despite the distortions and trade-offs in its history, remain strong and valid.
The context, however, has changed radically.
Freedom is more fragile than ever and requires new forms of expression and protection.
issues of social justice which recall the great value of equality, against unilateral exaltation of the freedom that comes down, sometimes to a conception of society that makes it a pure space of survival of people abandoned to their "capacity" of a state "minimum" to ensure that only the formal correctness of the race as if the starting positions were the same individual and the possibilities were the same for everyone.
task of the left must be the recognition and appreciation of differences, but when the differences become status, definitive for life, you create social divisions and inequalities intolerable.
So the Left is to express the ability to elevate the disadvantaged in a more egalitarian, that is as equal opportunities for self-fulfillment and well-being, political influence and social status. But today, the equality is to include other concepts such as race, culture and gender; reborn in new forms as the need for justice, as well as take new forms the right to work, as well as new applications grow, the knowledge, that of services that work.
Consequently, the brotherhood has to leave room for broader forms of solidarity. Environmental concerns have become an integral part di ogni politica e i bisogni dei posteri devono essere tenuti in considerazione ogni qual volta si prende una decisione.
Le ragioni della Sinistra vivono in una idea dello sviluppo che contiene dentro se stesso, nell’atto in cui si svolge, i meccanismi di regolazione per non distruggere le fonti della vita, per impedire le diseguaglianze più gravi, quelle che si perpetuano nel tempo.
Valori e idee devono essere per noi ancora alla base delle scelte politiche, che altrimenti sarebbero esclusivo dominio dei tecnocrati. Valori e idee danno forma ad un movimento politico e danno significato al suo programma.
Ha davvero ragione Norberto Bobbio nell’affermare che fino a che vi saranno uomini il cui impegno politico è mosso da un profondo sense of dissatisfaction and suffering in the face of evil in contemporary society, they take in life the ideals that have marked more than a century all the grim history.
Benjamin Constant - a father of liberalism - weaving the praise of personal freedoms, private, warned against the risk that "absorbed by our privacy and independence in the pursuit of our interests, we can too easily give up our right to participate political power. " Are requested not to leave politics - means to give happiness to the people - in the hands of "authorities" as well as they would like. A century later, echoed the writer Paul Valéry once mischievously called politics - that of those in power - as the "art of preventing people to deal with what concerns him." Against that kind of politics, a whole tradition of thought, from Aristotle to Hannah Arendt, has proposed a policy of participation, a policy which does not just search for the goal and purpose, but that needs to 'sense' , just as Arendt writes: "Understood in this way - and only then - not the policy may not be the concern of every free man."
