"And if you said / nothing is happening ..." Benevento Students have occupied some schools in the city (Benevento is a city of paradoxes and counter: hence the university is moving "Towed" by the student numbers for both operational proposal ...). I was still a "precarious" wearily took place when the last job before Christmas, sad and senseless. For many years this practice was abandoned in protest. Now, suddenly and without announcement, returns to a pivotal moment in the history of our country.
What kind of contribution we can give our teachers what happens? A dear colleague writes to me on Facebook: "This does not take." It is, therefore, just let them live their protest. But the school is also ours. I do not say rather than Rummo Giannone or Guacci, no, say the school, with a capital S, that you mentioned Domenico Starnone in Come away with me. It is ours as educators, it is because our fathers and mothers of children who attend or will attend, is ours as citizens of this city and this country, where it still has the duty to form the civic conscience. And, then, is what concerns us. We can choose to watch the story with detachment, with the excuse now that the Reformation (sic) for the Superiors Gelmini has already started, or try to look beyond our nose, and, for once, "going to fly ". What is happening these days? Witnessing the disgraceful end of a long political season, "the age of Berlusconi", dominated by ego hypertrophy of a man suffering from narcissism, first, then gradually delusions of omnipotence and, finally, as claimed by the wife of sexual addiction. It is clear that Berlusconi was also (and powerfully) culture (hegemonic already since the eighties) and a block of interest. But now all this is ending, and not just the sex scandals or the collapse of Pompeii or the revelations of Wikileaks. No: the "narrative" of Berlusconi does not work anymore, or he has shown himself able to protect those interests that their governments should protect. And then, this is the time for a new narrative, symbolic and sympathetic reception from the heartfelt tale, full of life Roberto Saviano and passion, in which many Italians have been recognized. If this is the state of the art, the renewed student movement (the symbol for me are the Bloc Book, kids-book), who protested for Culture and the Knowledge, against a conception that the word "meritocracy" hides the will to cut resources, should be supported and accompanied. Worldwide public school, regardless of our personal political orientations (and it does not appear in contradiction with the analysis "part" that I conducted), should call for a true reform, it has to be first of all un'autoriforma . It is the dignity of all. It must claim that this reform is not disputed political, ideological clash. There must be an agreement at the next election campaign, to start really being the "constituent" of the new school, shared a new beginning. It is not possible to match any government reform (Berlinguer, Moratti, Fioroni, Gelmini) that passes over the heads of those who make the school (teachers, students, teaching staff, managers) and later discarded by the government to start over, exhausted a body already ill. I do not like the school for what it is. But I believe that any reform that steps on the size of the one who acts biopsychic is doomed to failure.
Ladies and gentlemen, my invitation is twofold: to help the boys, our alumni, nostri figli, a capire ed agire con responsabilità (e quindi evitiamo che il problema diventi solo di “ordine pubblico”), e creiamo anche noi dei momenti di discussione e proposta per appropriarci di un processo riformatore che non può che partire da noi.
