social injustice

COMMENT of our contemporary opaque, otherwise indecipherable. Dell'imbarbarimento civil North, to begin with, the Northeast, with its xenophobic mayors, but also of the Northwest, the old industrial triangle, yesterday traditional area of \u200b\u200bsettlement of the social left "works" today the territory of winning the league. Degradation-Camorra mafia much of the south, and the moral decay of bipartisan way almost all of its ruling class. In the same rapid evaporation of the national left, to the extent of atrophy and aphasia current policy. And the apparently inexplicable absence of social conflict, collective, even in a situation where the crisis is biting on live. The rancor is
a sense 'social'. It is a passion "for the poor." Who is cornered. Powers, in fact, the 'war between the poor' horizontal conflicts on the bottom of the social pyramid. And the Italian workers are today poor. Indeed - perhaps even worse - are the "impoverished." Just take a look at the statistics, which do not like the government, but explained by the crudeness of their electoral fortune, to understand it. The most recent survey available - the Report of the Commission of Inquiry into Social Exclusion - tells us that the incidence of relative poverty among the working-class families had achieved in 2008 (when the crisis was just beginning then) record level 14.5%, that rises to the south even to 20.7%. Which means that here a family of five, whose head is a worker, is forced to live with a lower average monthly expenditure of at least half of that country.
If then the "relative poverty" is passed to the indicator of "absolute poverty" - which measures the number of those who can not afford even a minimum amount of goods and services deemed essential to a decent life: food, clothing, medicine and Transport -, things are even worse. Analysis 'group', carried out by Istat on one million two hundred thousand Italian households surveyed as "absolutely poor", in order to identify the composition, found that almost half of which consists of workers - mostly employees, but not only - or at least by families in which the "reference person" has a job. It is, for a large number (170,000 households, or 15.1% of the total) of "single-income couples with minor children resident workers in the South" and another high percentage (over 11%, over 124,000 households) of "single workers and single parents CentroNord"! But there also appear to be composed of 110,000 families' income family of their own workers with minor children (9.8%) and almost as many (93,000, 8, 3% of total) headed by an employee or even small business, with a high number of dependent children, and residence in the south. To which the mass is certainly more substantial, poverty occult censibile those who are not "officially" as poor, based on the amount of formal income or consumption, but in fact it is so burdened by mortgage payments or consumer credit, by a separation, a divorce, a relatively expensive therapy. Or simply a lifestyle that is incompatible with your budget become economically but socially essential, otherwise the loss of primary relationships.
They are all, social figures that until a few years ago were considered "guaranteed." That were socially - and there were subjectively - above and outside the risk-poverty. For which the social horizon was a long time, the growth of income and status. And now it turns out, almost suddenly, on an inclined plane. Measured on their ability to access essential goods and services, a "fall" that are reluctant to admit. And who are trying to disguise. But that is in many ways from afar. And that has to do - although it is difficult for the sufferer, to decipher it - with the heavy, silent but substantially destabilizing social and political defeat that the work has suffered in the latter part of last century. Not only in Italy, of course. But in Italy through a particularly severe.
Just take a look at the dynamics wage immediately to have the measure of social power shift that occurred during the period. The OECD puts us now in 23rd place in the annual ranking of earnings in its thirty member countries, ahead only in Czech Republic, Hungary, Mexico, New Zealand, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia and Turkey. The Italians are on average gross wages in the OECD area of \u200b\u200b16% and 32% compared to the Euro. Those net, due to the weight of the tax burden, even worse, according to Eurispes' the Italian worker receives a wage subsidy that is 44% lower than the official English, 32% to the Irish, 28% in less than a German. " This source perceive even payroll, 19% in less than a greek, and 14% of a Spaniard. What is certain is that if we consider that the championship lead to net pay, is occupied by Korea, with $ 39,931 per year, with 38,147 followed by the United Kingdom and Switzerland, with 36,000, the Italian worker with his $ 21,374 (approx. € 15,300 ) is really a pariah.

was not so until the nineties, when the remuneration for work in Italy was about 5 or 6 points above the European average. Behind the numbers, then, and their decline down, lies a contemporary lateral movement from center to periphery, the main character in the silence of the men behind those numbers are. Of that world of work with whom he had celebrated the "centrality" in the mature phase of the twentieth century, and which was staged in the darkening passage of a century. They are the ones who lost. A study by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) calculates the number of percentage points of GDP, the share of social wealth from wage bill passed in the profits of companies between the early '80s and 2005 in developed countries. For Italy it is less than 8 points, a huge figure, approximately 120 billion €, 7,000 € for each of the 17 million employees. The measure of a silent but brutal process of marginalization. surprising that now who until less than a generation ago was considered and was considered the center of the universe Social and Time is not even the most citations (unless they expose their bodies and their lives on a roof or a crane), or 'appointed' by the same rhetoric that left workers had built his political fortune, grudges? You feel a particular taste in the abandonment of his former comrades? A pageantry of wildness. A perverse use of politically incorrect, where the myth of the 'assault on heaven falls in the mud, and remains now only trash Celtic rite of the Po valley, and the guttural cry of the watch League, to mark a shred of subjectivity? Or resigned surrender to patronnage a godfather of the Camorra, in a belt flegrea? Or, finally, the dream perverse output vertically through the cube of a closet and a night of Big Brother?
