Il tessuto sociale italiano e le socialdemocrazie scandinave.
Ciao a tutti.Volevo discutere con voi riguardo le differenze che intercorrono tra la tipica società italiana o europea e le socialdemocrazie scandinave che se pur contraddittoriamente sembrano funzionare molto meglio.Quali sono secondo voi gli aspetti storici e culturali che hanno permesso in quei paesi l'esistenza di un tale welfare,di una tale tassazione,di una tale presenza del pubblico rispetto al privato e di un tale sostegno alle fasce più basse.Perchè invece la storia dei paesi europei piccol-imperialisti (spagna-italia ecc) è scandita da stragi,dittature,colpi di stato fatti da certe classi contro altre,da certi settori sociali ecc.Come mai quindi le classi agiate italiane si sono sempre chiuse nei loro privilegi a discapito della società nel suo complesso,ma sopratutto ,perchè in svezia o danimarca ciò non è successo?

Written by Onorato Damen
The present volume is the product of Damen’s considerations on Gramsci’s shortcomings as an analytical and practical Marxist which he evidently wrote over a period of years. The structure is loose because he died before he completed it and the draft chapters were only discovered posthumously and eventually published in 1982.
The book can be ordered by emailing us at uk@leftcom.org and asking for our banking details, by donating the cost of the publications required via Paypal using the “Donate” button, or via Amazon (amazon.co.uk).
Written by Onorato Damen
The originality and importance of this volume – in a expanded edition including new documents and editorial notes, from the two previous editions: 1971 and 1977 – mainly lies in the documents that throw permanent light on the distinctive development and perspectives of the “Italian Left” over decades (among the most tragic in modern history) in the history of international communism.
The book can be ordered by emailing us at uk@leftcom.org and asking for our banking details, by donating the cost of the publications required via Paypal using the “Donate” button, or via Amazon.co.uk (amazon.co.uk). Don't go to Amazon.com as it says "unavailable" there.
The issue of “consciousness” is one of the most important for the working class and for revolutionaries. Our approach is unashamedly historical and attempts to draw out the real experience of the working class in its struggles of the last two centuries.

Diciamo che non se ne fa
Diciamo che non se ne fa nulla di differenze culturali, etiche e morali, in questo modo si potrebbe spiegare cio che si vuole dalla nascita dell'universo alla fondazione del PD, basta che lo abbia voluto qualcuno e la storia è belle che scritta... che poi si abbiano diverse forme repressive dell'egemonia borghese la cui confezione e i cui metodi, da democratico a dittatoriale, pacifico legato al welfare o violento, facciano parte di un programma politico non li rende storicamente determinanti. poco lo so, saluti.
