IS THE HISTORY, SALVINI
globalization, the real one, explained by those who know it
-You stop the war and we will not come in Europe.- Word of a thirteen year old Syrian, who addressed it to the police station in Hungarian Budapest. And if you understand a child, it can also understand the European Union and the West.
Aylan Kurdi, found dead on the beach in Bodrum, Turkey, was fleeing with his family as that thirteen. From the war in Syria, which in opinion of the United Nations Office for Humanitarian Aid has produced 7.6 million internal refugees (4.1 instead escaped overseas) and 240 thousand victims.
Of 17 million Syrians, 12 require assistance. They run away from conflict, which began in 2010, that the Occident has not yet been able to stop, for rivalries and geopolitical delay.
Getting away from the war, but also by poverty. Looking for a model of well-being, widely publicized by the Occident, but not everyone wants to share with others. One who knows these mechanisms is Edoardo Nesi, writer and Strega Award, which comes from a family of textile entrepreneurs from Prato.
"Globalization", he says "was created to reduce the labor costs of very large companies, shifting industrial production from America and Europe in countries that once were defined underdeveloped, where a worker has no rights and his work is paid two cents holes.
To work, the globalization serves the free movement of cargo, and then the elimination or at least the strong reduction of taxes and prices, and the free movement of capital. The weakest of beautiful minds, this release of businesses thought it was a great wave of freedom, a kind of glorious, definitive contribution to the fight against universal poverty. I remember when, during a concert, before attacking "One," Bono of U2 thanked Bill Clinton, and the spectators all standing to peel hands with applause. It seemed the time when politics could bring a bit 'of justice in the world. Clinton was a superstar loved by superstars. "
-WELL, A PERFECT WORLD. AT LEAST ON PAPER.
"Yes, Allegranti. But then the wool factory Nesi (industry family, ed.) Stops earn and hire, and go in difficulty along with other hundreds of thousands of small manufacturing companies all over the Occidental world. As much as we complain it is treated by Luddites, no one listens to us and it comes swept away. So they lose millions of employment throughout the Occident and in exchange you get an invasion of cheap Chinese products and the establishment in Italy of a huge and structural unemployment , that will take a long time to regain, if ever will succeed, because has been given a cut to small and tiny manufacturing industry, one that assumed and maintained on working even those who did not have a degree or diploma. "
-E THEN WHAT IS SUCCESS?
"It happened that the poor of the world today-the Syrians, the Eritreans, Moroccans, Afghans, tomorrow all the others- have realized that a system of free movement of trade and capital led inevitably, as a corollary, even the free movement of persons. That same free movement of persons that we in the West in fact there we were already given, see Schengen, without granting it to them. The idea of the paladins of globalization was that the world's poor were to stay in their countries, good good, to settle for earning two bowls of rice a day instead of that one bowl they ate before the advent of globalization, and to work as donkeys to produce what then we will purchased. In essence, we told them they could not come.... The first to overcome this problem have been the Chinese: came with a tourist visa and remained in Italy, or in Europe. Today is truly extraordinary and impressive, the fact that migrants feel they have the full right to come to Europe to work. They are convinced that they live in the "one world", without borders and without customs duties, which raved Clinton and Bono. They are right, There is not much to do. And it seems to me have little sense that too continue to distinguish between those who run away from a war and those who want to come to Europe to work. Will be, and that's it. Because they have reason to want to come. Of course, I realize that there are no many Italians who see it the same way.
-YOU SEE HYPOCRISY?
"Maybe, after being deeply moved to see whole families who risk their lives to come to Europe-of child on the beach I just can not find the courage to speak - we should reflect on the fundamental difference that exists between immigration of families and immigration for men only. Who carries around his wife and children want to embrace a new world, not only earn some money with extemporaneous little jobs. I hope that these families will be integrate. That they will respect our culture and will love our art, that will send girls and boys at school with our, and finally become Italian. I have not suddenly become a beautiful soul: is that I was very moved to see all that enthusiasm for the future, the belief that the work can change lives and liberate it from the burden of poverty or oppression, that stubbornness to want live in a Country where it is allowed to dream wellness. Are not the foundations of that, blessed mechanism that created the success of the Italian post-war? Syrians migrants reminded me of the characters in my latest book, - 'Infinitely Summer'. For that I am sided with them. Because they are the last to still believe in the ideal best and most powerful of our Western civilization. "
-DEAR NESI, YOU ARE DO-GOODERS WOULD SAY IT MATTEO SALVINI
Do-gooder? I hope so, yes. But just look around a bit, read a book if you do not, at least, read sometimes a newspaper to understand that prejudicially opposed to immigration so excited - immigration of families that are willing to risk their lives to enter the production process of our countries-want to say that don't understand how the world goes on.
-I CONTINUED TO FORM PART OF SALVINI: MR.NESI, WE CAN'T ACCOMMODATE THEM ALL. TAKE SOMEONE AT YOUR HOME, COME ON.
"But the vast majority of migrants do not wants to establish by us: they want to go to Germany from that Angela Merkel that many, here in Italy, paint like the devil. The irony of history is wonderful, sometimes. Anyway, the genie can not be put back in the lamp, and to bring back the past could not even the Great Gatsby. This is the world in which we live. It may be that we do not like it, but we can not doesn't try to understand it and make it work better. And not pull up the walls, out of the euro, or make unreason of bulldozers and tight. "
-AGAIN SALVINI: BUT THESE ARE HERE TO MAKE CRIMES
"Every question that ask him on television, Salvini responds with the same impetus of those who feel crushed with violence a big toe from the ingrow nnail. He flaunts an instinctive reaction and furious, immediate and powerful, because it is easier to understand, the easier. The less I thought. And, invariably more wrong. The Pentagon has just said that this crisis will last twenty years, and is not born for war in Syria or in Eritrea that is only one of the causes. Instead it will be good start to realize, from Palazzo Chigi to last bars of Val Seriana, that in coming years will come from Africa by the millions and the only thing of which we can still surprise is that they waited so long to get in trip.
There are not to despair us but to prepare us. It's called History, Allegranti.
History ".
