  • Vom Abstellgleis Zur Nebenregierung1
    05_Hornig Seite 454 Donnerstag, 13. Dezember 2007 9:06 09 Eike-Christian Hornig »Camera obscura« – Der italienische Senat und seine Mitglieder auf Lebenszeit: Vom Abstellgleis zur Nebenregierung1 Das italienische Parlament gilt im internationalen Vergleich als eine Besonderheit, da es mit dem Abgeordnetenhaus und dem Senat über zwei gleichberechtigte und direkt gewählte Kammern verfügt. Dieser »bicameralismo perfetto« ist seit den Umbrüchen der 1990er Jahre verstärkt in das Fadenkreuz institutioneller Reformen gerückt, da er als Quelle der Instabilität der Regierungen schnell auszumachen war. Da aber eine Kopplung des Senats an eine Dezentralisierung bzw. Föderalisierung Italiens bislang ausblieb, ist der Senat nach wie vor der »machtvolle Zwillingsbruder der Abgeordnetenkammer«2. Seit der Parlamentswahl im April 2006 steht er beson- ders im Mittelpunkt der Aufmerksamkeit, da die Regierung Prodi hier nur über eine hauchdünne Mehrheit verfügt. Bei einer symbolträchtigen Abstimmung über die Außenpolitik im Februar 2007 kam diese Mehrheit nicht zu Stande und stürzte die Regierung in die Krise. Dafür ausschlaggebend waren, neben der Abwesenheit zweier kommunistischer Senatoren der Regierungskoalition, auch zwei Senatoren auf Lebenszeit (SaL). Insbesondere der Pate der italienischen Politik, der mehrfache Ministerpräsident Giulio Andreotti sorgte mit einem kurzfristigen Stimmungs- wechsel für Kritik an der Rolle der Senatoren auf Lebenszeit als Zünglein an der Waage3. Diese war zuvor schon im Dezember 2006 laut geworden, da der Haushalt der Regierung nur Dank der massiven Unterstützung der Senatoren auf Lebenszeit verabschiedet werden konnte, was Oppositionspolitiker wie der Vorsitzende der Oppositionspartei »Alleanza Nazionale«, Gianfranco Fini als undemokratisch kri- tisierten4. 1 Für ihre Hinweise danke ich Ralf Kleinfeld, Anna Lena Etzbach und David Grewe. 2 Jörg Seisselberg, »Der italienische Senat: Machtvoller Zwillingsbruder der Abgeordne- tenkammer«, in: Gisela Riescher / Sabine Ruß / Christoph Haas (Hg.), Zweite Kam- mern, München 2000, S.

  • El MSI Y El Lugar Del Fascismo En La Cultura Política Italiana = the Msi and the Role of Fascism in Italian Political Culture
    El msi y El luGar DEl Fascismo En la cultura Política italiana The msi and the role of fascism in Italian political culture Ferran GallEGo Universidad Autónoma de Barcelona Fecha de recepción: 17 de febrero; revisión: 17 de mayo; aceptación definitiva: 23 de octubre rEsumEn: En este trabajo se analiza el papel del movimiento social italiano en la política del país transalpino del siglo xx. la clave de su influencia estaría en las peculiaridades del régimen político surgido de las ruinas del fascismo. con la proclamación de la república muchos fascistas se enrolaron en las filas de la Democracia cristiana y otros partidos de la derecha, dejando al msi como único heredero del fascismo. Eso no le impidió colaborar con la Democracia cristiana a través de la estrategia del «inserimento». cuando la Democracia cristiana empezó su aproximación al Partido socialista italiano, el msi se vio claramente excluido y situado en una posición relativamente marginal. su resurgimiento estará relacio- nado con los cambios radicales ocurridos en la política italiana en las décadas de los sesenta y setenta que propiciaran la llegada al liderazgo de Giorgio almirante en 1969. El msi se presentará como un partido restaurador del orden y dispuesto a combatir por sí mismo la subversión. Durante los años 80 el msi se moverá entre la estrategia del Partido-Protesta de almirante y la idea de un partido de la sociedad civil defendido por rauti. al final, el msi, tras el cambio de liderazgo de almirante por Gianfranco Fini, inició un nuevo camino donde se afirmaba la lealtad a los valores del fascismo, corroborado por la crisis del comunismo.

With the end of this contrast, it ends also the “scenario characterized by elegants simplicity” as emeritus president Francesco Cossiga said. Today everything changes, war, or better, conflicts, fights in more fronts: the financial-economic is acquiring great importance, because the actors, that attacks, are not just States; there are sovereign wealth funds, multinationals, NGOs, banks and corporations. The effects of attacks is amplified if combined with the manipulation of information, made possible by the globalization.1 In this new world order, where Intelligence has a fundamental role (as it used to have in the old order). Alongside the traditional Intelligence discipline, is developping another one: the Economic Intelligence. In the contemporary version, the economic Intelligence has attention on business intelligence or environmental scanning or competitive intelligence. Briefly, it is the theory of 1 Cfr. Giuseppe Griscioli, “Competizione Economico-finanziaria, ruolo dell’Intelligence e Sicurezza Nazionale”.

First of all, France. In France has been founded a School of Economic Warfare (Ecole de Guerre Economique) with teachings that are based on strategical military logicals.

The Aspen Institute does this primarily in four ways: seminars, young-leader fellowships around the globe, policy programs, and public conferences and events. The Institute is based in Washington, DC; Aspen, Colorado; and on the Wye River on Maryland's Eastern Shore. It also has offices in New York City and an international network of partners.

Two-generation approaches provide opportunities for and meet the needs of children and their parents together. They build education, economic assets, social capital, and health and well- being to create a legacy of economic security that passes from one generation to the next. We all want to see families thrive, but fragmented approaches that address the needs of children and their parents separately often leave either the child or parent behind and dim the family’s chance at success. Placing parents and children in silos ignores the daily challenges faced by parents who are working or studying while raising a child, a challenge even more pronounced for those with low wages. Research has documented the impact of a parent’s education, economic stability, and overall health on a child’s trajectory.
