The requests that come from below, even if they come from a simple group of
members, must be listened to. ---- They must be listened to, mediated, understoodand must also find an answer. ---- We cannot be satisfied with a semblance offacade democracy. There is no democracy if there is no right to dissent. If youcan not exercise a right of criticism that is also implemented. ---- A Thesisneeds an Antithesis to become a Synthesis and a synthesis needs an antithesisagain and so on in a virtuous circle of normal democratic dialectics. ----Substantial and non-formal democracy we must practice between comrades and comrades.Right to be heard and not a dogma of infallibility --- (this has been up to thePopes since 1870 and if they are always right, it would be better not to talk tous) accept criticism as an increase in knowledge and possibilities and not aslese majesty. This is the basis of the scientific method. The possibility of verify-Only in this way can a good synthesis of political documents be achieved,obtaining a unitary and plural management.Even if the internal opposition continues to play its role of antithesis andconstant verification. Another key point:But should a trade union only manage internal democracy? Or worry only about thecontract? A syndicate of Knowledge like ours, perhaps dealing with Philosophy,Theories of Power, political theory, elaborates, elaborates Knowledge and...without knowledge and cognition of the mistakes made (because we have mademistakes, and when we are wrong it is good to say it- we are not infallible likethe Popes-) and,,, I repeat, without knowledge and understanding of the mistakesmade, there is and will never be a better contract, social justice, inclusion,acceptance.Freedom equality and sisterhood, Equality what a beautiful word!Pietro Gori so admirably outlines it "Because we love equality they called uscriminals but we are workers and bosses we don't want" -Pietro Gori 1895 Amor RibelleToday we are almost afraid to pronounce this word, it is replaced with the wordequity, a concept that does not belong to our history. Equity is when the poorman who remains poor has enough to feed himself, cover himself and live in hislittle house. The rich man remains the rich man with his villa and his beautifulcapital. Because, in the liberal vulgate, he deserves it.Merit is another pernicious idea derived from the business model that you want toapply to society and to the whole school. The best have more rights, but the bestare usually those at the top of the social pyramid, they deserve to be the best.But...The values we believe in are very different. They descend from the firstinternational, they have roots in the social democratic, socialist, communist andlibertarian family.They all have one point in common: the overcoming of capitalism as the creator ofa society divided into classes, capitalists and workers. Exploiters andexploited. Sometimes the exploited earn relatively well, but remain so becausethe value of their work does not go entirely to them, but to increase the profitthat goes to capital.We contrast the social, economic and ecological cost of the right to exploit, theright to dismissal and precariousness in all our sectors to business law and therisk of business law, a category now assumed by what defines itself as aprogressive camp. .And then, even a school and an education that acts as a social elevator is not aconcept that should belong to us, we must aim for a school of free and equal people.We should rethink a didactic that not only contrasts dispersion and failure andeffectively opposes the alternation between school and work, the "projectfactory", the bureaucratization of the trade, but we must also rethink a didacticthat educates to our values, of inclusion, of cooperation , of equality, of theenhancement of the individual paths of each of us, abolishing merit. For theintegral development of the personality, foresee a cycle of permanent education.For an evaluation that goes beyond the standardization criteria linked to thenumerical grade.Whether the center right won or the center left lost on 25 September is a debatethat doesn't interest me too much. A concrete fact is that the votes of thecentre-right are more or less equal. Perhaps the institutional left, notrepresenting the demands for struggle and improvement that come from what shouldbe the reference political subject: workers, the unemployed and unemployed,pensioners, students has completely lost the trust of these sectors.The political left has betrayed them all. The union doesn't have to do that.What is a general axiom, i.e. that male and female workers have no friendlygovernments, in the Health and Education Sectors, manifests itself in all itsdrama, in fact we observe in perfect continuity with previous governmentspolicies of cuts and systematic demolition of spending publish.There are no friendly governments and it is useless to wait for political sides,to moderate requests, to submit to governments of national unity. The union mustbe autonomous from political parties and reverse any subordination. If we want topractice anti-fascism consistently we must be anti-capitalists we must regainpossession of our theoretical baggage. Don't let us be duped by the ideas of theruling class. Like the productivist-business school.Forming companions in the light of our values, with the clear intention on theone hand of contractually defending our reference categories, on the other handforming the new generations based on the teaching principles that consistentlyderive from our values, giving them the only competence that is really valid fortheir life, the ability to imagine a future and be able to change society inorder to achieve it. Together.We must have a clear vision of where we are going or we will go astray along the way.We are here to remind our category who we were, who we are and where we are going.We were the first category of this union that has given permanent representationto the precarious by creating precarious coordination for universities andschools by integrating them into the governing bodies. We have occupied FacultyCouncils and Statute Commissions in the rectorates with the flag of the FLC,alongside students and with research precarious workers. We suspended ourselvesin the void or on the roofs.Contains the worst aspects of the Gelmini Law and almost blocked "The good school".We want the FLC to continue on its path of dialogue and discussion not only onissues strictly related to contractual matters, not only with the area ofdocument 2, but also with all the requests that come from the realities of schooland university movements who are fighting for individual and social andenvironmental rights. Feminisms, ecologisms, pacifism and antimilitarism. Tocontinue to be a competent and combative FLC. Let's hold hands in these sad days,Let's not get lost along the way, Come on!* Speech at the regional congress FLC CGIL Tuscanyhttp://alternativalibertaria.fdca.it/_________________________________________A - I N F O S N E W S S E R V I C EBy, For, and About AnarchistsSend news reports to A-infos-en mailing listA-infos-en@ainfos.ca
