BOOK "RANSOM. Bergamo and Italy. Notes for a possible future" -Rizzoli
From the pandemic to reconstruction, a dialogue on the future we want for Italy.
It can only start from the most dramatic days of spring 2020, when military vehicles took away from Bergamo the coffins of the victims of Covid-19,the reflection of the Mayor Giorgio Gori. it was"the cruellest of the lessons"that imparted by the health storm, which left, in addition to the pain of loss, an entire country to be rebuilt and restarted, to get out of the recent crisis and the situation of stagnation and paralysis that has its roots in the last twenty years of our history.
The"notes for a possible future"collected in this close conversation with Francesco Cancellato trace a guiding vision for the task that awaits us: "cure" our health system, guarantee young people work and social mobility, heal the fracture between North and South, center and peripheries; intervene on the school to bring it back to the center of political action, rethink welfare and inclusion, address immigration as an opportunity and not as a mere emergency.
Today that the Recovery Fund offers us the opportunity to invest in the future and in the next generations, Gori proposes concrete interventions to govern the great demographic, technological and environmental transformations. Without shying away from the most current political debate.
Mixing personal and political biography, social analysis, criticisms and proposals,Ransom digs into the mistakes of the past (even very recent) to outline the way back to growth.
"Redemption is a title that came from my heart, mixing the story of my city and what I hope will still happen to our country; the impatience for the too many things that do not work in Italy and the hope of seeing the Italians finally react. – Giorgio Gori
