Puglia

Giuseppe Alberto Falci

After weeks of internal opposition to the center, was completed "telenevola" Puglia. Nichi Vendola won with over 70% of the vote over his rival Francesco Boccia in the challenge to win the nomination for President of the Region. Approximately 192,000 people voted for the primary center in Puglia. The figure is the final published by the Pd Puglia. Those who voted in Puglia in the primaries of the Democratic Party last October 25 when Pierluigi Bersani was chosen as secretary of the party were about 170,000. Instead, they were 79,296 participants in the primaries of 2005 when for the first time Nichi Vendola had the better of Frank Boccia in choosing the presidential candidate of the center for the region Puglia.

What has happened in recent months in Puglia? Let's take a brief history of the facts. In August the reappointment of Vendola was good and reliable. During the feast of the Tarantella, Massimo D'Alema was clear: "Nichi is our candidate." Then, the meetings of late summer, between Casini and D'Alema, began to leak something. At that point, the application of Vendola was hanging on the outcome of the primaries in October. Evins as the motion is Bersani's victory would mean the research alliance with the UDC, the formation of a new "Union." Bersani won. He began to talk of alliances ahead of the Regional March. Casini was immediately clear: "Either with us or with Vendola. ED'Alema proposed Michele Emiliano, who was elected mayor of Bari in June with the support of the UDC. Emily immediately poses a problem: he would not resign as mayor of Bari Therefore, the Region asked a sneaky ad personam to resolve the node resignation. The Region and the local Democratic Party rejected the sender's request. But at the same time Vendola not let go, aware of its strength and el consent. It came to a compromise between Pd and Vendola: do the primaries. As soon as you said the word "primary", Michele Emiliano retired the application and returned to play the position of mayor. The national leaders of the Democratic Party gave an exploratory mandate to Francesco Boccia to find a broad coalition around his candidacy. Boccia UDC so pleased that you went ahead on this line. But Vendola never thought to remove the noise and leave room for Boccia. So, between primary and Boccia Vendola, just like 5 years ago when Vendola won by a margin of 1600 votes. This is the chronicle.

Now what will the Democratic Party? There are two possible scenarios. First scenario: three-way race. What do you mean? The Democratic Party will run with Vendola, the UDC will support Poli Bortone, the PDL and Rocco Palese (man Raffaele Lease). According scenario: two-horse race. Vendola will support the Democratic Party and for the happiness of the PDL, the UDC's candidacy avallerà Palese. The first scenario is the most likely and the most favorable to the Democratic Party. Why? The report says that the Poli Bortone, a former mayor of Lecce and militant of Alleanza Nazionale, was rejected by the national and local leaders of the PDL for personal reasons per se. Poli Bortone by the candidacy of the Democratic Party would benefit only because his electorate is the same as the PDL. Hence, if the first scenario Vendola's victory would be reasonable. Second scenario is the same five years, on the one hand we Vendola the other, instead of Fitto, Rocco Palese. I would say: what a mess.

The PD and Apulia: how to get lost in a glass of water. Tap water. Triumph of Love

Simon Lord

For many of the recent behavior of Massimo D'Alema, recently rejected the appointment of European Foreign Minister (and the next Tuesday, new chairman of the

Parliamentary Security of the Republic, COPAS), and Nichi Vendola, former governor of Puglia and spokesman of the Left Ecology Freedom, looks like yet another unjustified political hara-kiri, that makes the art of disagreement the real Achilles' heel of PD. Yet, on closer inspection, the matter may not be as irrelevant. Although D'Alema

belies the suggestion "mess" that would lead to an alliance Puglia PD-UDC in the name of Francesco Boccia, there are many signs that lead to considerations in the opposite direction. In short, to quote Andreotti, "to think evil is a sin, but we often guesses."

It so happens that in fact the father of Pier Ferdinando Casini is the entrepreneur Gaetano Caltagirone, the tenth richest man in Italy, which owns 7.5% ACEA SpA (Azienda Comunale Energia e Ambiente), which has already has long focused his eyes on the aqueduct Puglia by the actions of its CEO, Marco Staderini, former Lottomatica Board of Directors and former RAI, also linked by close friendship with Casini. To reinforce the chain of relationships are Péruzy Andrea, director of ACEA on behalf of shareholders and secretary general of the French Suez dalemiana Italianieuropei Foundation. These ties are reflected in glove in the choice of object to Vendola economist Francesco Boccia (ed Bocconi MBA), already defeated by Vendola in 2005 to just over 1200 votes.

In an interview with a journalist from La Gazzetta del Mezzogiorno "Boccia said fact that" If the water (was) the public, the Region (...) should give it free to all and, instead, in Puglia you pay higher fares. For this I am for the nationalization of companies holding the assets of the major utilities, but no management: demand that the families of the San Paolo di Bari (ed class neighborhood with high unemployment and petty crime) wealthy do not pay anything and as Vendola me and pay more. And to do so, you must open the doors of the competition between private management, while preserving the majority publicly owned ".

Vendola, for its part, has always claimed the need to maintain the water service in the hands of the public : "We will not allow an expropriation of property and that 'a source of pride, a pride. The Apulian Aqueduct and 'a great public good, the water that' citizens and 'a universal right. We will get across, we will do with all our strength against each design to give to some French or American multinational public goods such as Puglia. Vendola Against the will of the Ronchi Decree, however, is part of last November, which establishes the expectations of the management of water services to the private sector by 2011.

and then began the war of gold Blue?

Although the intentions expressed by Boccia are more than commendable, several studies on the transition from public management to private management of Water Utilities have produced little results rewarding. The most striking are Ghana, where the PPP (Public Private Partnership ) founded by the government and some corporations have doubled the cost of water, until you get to be a tenth of the average daily gain, even in Cochabamba, Bolivia After the advent of the consortium Aguas del Tunari (including U.S. Bechtel and Italy's Edison ) prices increased by 20% -30% to be a quarter of monthly income. The cities of Cancun, Saltillo, and Aguas Calientes in Mexico have a different history in which the constant is an indiscriminate increase in prices (from 32% -68% or more) and even the bankruptcy risk of firms (such as France's Vivendi , which in Aguas Calientes at risk of bankruptcy in 1994, only to renegotiate government contract with a thirty year even more profitable).

Approaching a bit ', we find the two cases documented by Report (which I recommend everyone to see: http://bit.ly/8NSf6G ) Arezzo (with the French multinational Suez ), where prices have doubled for the first time with the advent of private service and a second due to the fraudulent 1:1 exchange with the euro, or Aprilia SpA Acqualatina (which includes just the ACEA), which documented increases from 50% to 3300% (33 times as much!), with the birth of a group of 5000 and more citizens who refuse to pay bills risk of being exposed to the physically close the taps.

short, caution is needed when it approaches the discourse of water privatization: it is clear that since this is a market that appears to be a natural monopoly (due to the presence of high entry costs and huge economies of scale and purpose), the transition from political price to monopoly price inevitably leads to an increase in the price level, and though it can be opposed by a regulatory efficiency, are not excludable side effects. This is demonstrated by the case of AQP , the SpA which operates the Aqueduct own Pugliese, who has refused to invest in its infrastructure after it was stopped trying to touch up upwards of 10% of its prices. It would also increase the business risk as it tells the news that has always AQP risked losing € 250 million in bonds Ford, Chrysler and General Motors in the warm months of the crisis.

is true, the effects were mixed, and explains how a study commissioned in 2007 by the rather optimistic The nter-American Development Bank and carried out on Colombian territory, the privatization of the port to secure a price increase only for the last quintile (ie 20% of the population ordered by income, ie the poorest), while the other is to anticipate the result. And there seems to glimpse a philosophy attributed to joke played masterfully by Ettore Petrolini: "You have to take the money where it is: at the poor. They have little but are so many ".

Silvio Berlusconi is a pedophile. Or at least, the performance of singing Letizia of these days [1] shows that some of their meetings could not be focused, as stated at the time [2] on the piano and karaoke (unless the Premier is not even masochistic: Silvio Berlusconi is a masochist? ).
Silvio Berlusconi ...

"I think everyone is clear that if a prime minister is said to be a corrupter of minors, a corrupter of witnesses, one who kills the freedom of the press, which is a mafioso, even a stragista, a tyrant it is clear that in an unstable mind, and unfortunately there are around a lot, it means to be tyrannicides become national heroes and make the good of their country and their fellow citizens' and then acquire a responsible and a glory important " Silvio Berlusconi, 20 December 2009 [3].

Following this statement, surrounded by no less memorable utterances such as the Hon. Cicchitto the House [4], I can think of right party of "moral principals" of (future) violent attacks against the President of the Council, or perhaps even a majority in the solid. Of course, I do not claim to ergermi to opinion-makers, nor the idea that what I say or write may have the same influence of journalists from the national press and television (which, incidentally, I rarely seem to have categorically explicit extern reviews): months ago already why palesai I believe in no uncertain terms, that of freedom-Berlusconi regime [5]. However, a climate of hatred (cited) is not born from above by four mouths open, but is formed as a concert of voices, warm air that insistently, without arrogance, insinuates itself into every little crack in the civil society, and when you realize that the temperature has changed, well, it's already changed. So, in my small, I I contribute to growth of this hate campaign . Aware of this, I conclude: several of the things I said are based on facts established in court [6]. Others have not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt, but are, in my opinion, sufficiently concrete can be endorsed or at least, given the gravity of the charges and the public position of the accused, much-needed debate until they are fully understood.

Is this media terrorism? Attack on the institutions? Impediment to good governance of the country? It is grim justicialism? Hate speech? In a liberal democracy would seem to doubt affected, in Italy also divide the opposition.

What exactly is the line between freedom of criticism, even criticism piccata, and fomenting hatred, anger? Between freedom of expression and dissent (or expression of dissent), and respect for institutions? In the name of this freedom, I'm ready to sign each of my previous statements, but in my heart, where there is nothing but my word, and where only I can know if the chin or if they are sincere in all honesty say do not hate Silvio Berlusconi. Neither as man nor as a politician. I think that is a condition for democracy, a political element to be eradicated as seriously damages the good of the country, yet I never thought, said or even secretly hoped to see him bleeding, injured or very dead. But precisely for this reason, it has never expressed such a strong passion towards her, I now feel the need to exert my solidarity with Berlusconi. I do not understand why his face bleeding should appease my disagreement with his political work, all opposition to his government, the denunciation of his overt attempt to undermine the constitutional foundations of the country for the only declared intent to save themselves from criminal proceedings that interfere with its government mandate (and others). I do not feel the need to clarify the line of the sentencing of violent act, why not accept the idea that this election is automatically associated with an apparent endorsement of what happened! The real exploitation is one that sees politicians and color of each side (except for Di Pietro, who has gone through this bloody beast) having to run after those who show more compassion and human closeness, reach out to the bedside of the dying man in a theory without end, ranging from friends, colleagues, employees down to the people, you know, it's always from the soul the sincere and genuine. So today, we still filled with the sight of his blood and he is still recovering, we see this hand stretch magnanimous, full of love alone. However, it is - and this is where the thin grafted trap - not an unconditional love, forgiveness of rash and maybe taking your own responsibility. Instead, wonder if it gives the dog just beat, a smile to a child recently chastised a winking gesture that offers future protection, but only under certain conditions: that you do not bite more than the boss, you do not answer more harm to my father, or out of allegory, and hinder you stop criticizing the President of the Council so that it can finally reach those targets for months chasing, and that so far have found an unusual number of street obstacles.

These are the reasons why the new politics of love is nothing more than yet another form of blackmail, meaner than ever because masked with a word of powerful impact, which refers to everything except the real intentions of the His promulgate. Who dares stand against such a strong message of peace to know beforehand that it would be doubly harmful: on a personal level, as a sign of human stupidity to the pain of others, and politically, because the left is proof of how ruthless and rancorous in fueling his blind hatred of Berlusconi. Remember, in some ways the mechanism depicted by Orwell, where it was just the Ministry of Love, in 1984 , the thankless task of suppressing all dissent. We do not need a whole department, just a party.
