Mountain Communities.
autonomy and identity.

You read and hear that would end the days of gestation commissioner and the imminent birth of the new mountain communities. Hoping to be still in time I would just call up the regional advisers on the view that the reform may have an array of bureaucratic or political. Imagine that there is a rule supported by some sort of mega Chief Executive made up of all the mayors of the region, only makes sense if you think that the task of the new body is to allocate between the various municipalities Mountain Fund, and manage the expropriated powers to municipalities. But if this is the design of the bureaucrats, I guess a shot of dignity of Mayors! This sort of mega-agency revenue and expenditure of municipalities in fact strips them of all power, forcing unions to the role of Simon of Cyrene overwhelmed by criticism of its citizens, without even be able to choose the path to Calvary ...
In name, they say, a rationalization of ed'un savings. Everything to prove and that it would have better ensured by solutions consortium. Then if the participation of mayors should be reduced to the division of the Mountain Fund, we might as well remove the image of community that would see them listed only as ridiculous ...
But the councilors, majority and opposition, to what end we have elected, then if reforms to make the bureaucrats? ... Given the political heat put into receivership, I would have expected as much enthusiasm for political reform in which he decided to characterize this center-right majority. The Community born with the law 1102 of 1971 for "encouraging people's participation in the planning and implementation of regional development programs." Even then, the legislature felt that in the mountain valleys has established a sense of identity, which is missing in the plain. Identity to be considered as the value and distinctive competence on which to set the autonomy of the Communities of the distinctive mountain.
possible that the former AN who have lived on the value of the identity of the alloy and those who were born on the value of autonomy, allow themselves to snatch the bureaucrats an opportunity to compete on an institution that combines identity and autonomy, is capable to promote people's participation in the project of development of their area ...? Yet it does not seem so difficult to understand that people's participation is a prerequisite for development based on the enhancement of the environment on the sound management of resources to offset the higher costs of living in the mountains, the involvement in promoting tourism development ... Someone
accuses me of having helped to abort the idea of \u200b\u200bthe province of Upper Friuli, that autonomy was the battle cry, and then says that I'm falling into contradiction. I have no regrets and remorse, but the doubt (which I hope will be denied!) That someone may have used my passion policy outcomes opposite to those that were and are my intentions.
remain convinced that autonomy is possible if there is an underlying identity! There is no identity of the High Friuli, while there is a strong identity of Carnia, or Valcellina, valleys or Natisone Valcanale Canal del Ferro. Perhaps it is not easy for everyone to understand this relationship between identity and autonomy. But he can not understand the President Tondo who comes from a region where this report has already been felt in the Resistance Movement, leading to the creation of the Community Carnica, well before the birth of the mountain communities!
Because instead of playing "who does not" as suggested by the bureaucrats, there is not a political step of kidneys and proposes a solution to the nation state as a new model of "mountain community" in the footsteps of what at the time did the founding fathers of the Community Carnica?
