| Nicola Zingaretti |
To understand why our cities are prey to the speculation is nice to be the cry of alarm raised by a few days ago President of the Provincia di Roma, Nicola Zingaretti, esteemed member of the Democratic Party. He said that from 2001 until now some 300,000 Roman citizens have left the city and suburbs have swelled the immense underground.
A cry of alarm, unfortunately out of time and reticent at the same time. For years the best culture planning that is gathered around the site Eddyburg ( eddyburg.it ) claim that the major Italian cities are subjected to a violent process of real estate development that do not governed, it creates imbalances and expulsion of residents from the centers. The inhabitants are then expelled from the process of impetuous growth in real estate values \u200b\u200bin recent years.
Rome, in particular, had suffered a decline in population during the years 1991 -2001 almost identical: 300 000 inhabitants. Those planners also complains that it was possible that the center-left government of the city (Mayor Rutelli and Veltroni) they did approve a new plan which provided for a frightening increase in building, approximately 70 million cubic meters of concrete, something that could accommodate a population increase of more than 400 000 inhabitants. We wondered then, what was the logic of continuing to fill with concrete and asphalt, a city in apparent population decline. If those people had left because property values \u200b\u200bwere out of control, as they could return if all the predictions of new buildings are private and therefore with values \u200b\u200bthat match the current ones?
There was no answer then, and-unfortunately-Nicola Zingaretti also flew over the scandal: in denouncing the further loss of population because it does not say a word about the scandal of 2008, when then-mayor Walter Veltroni (and with him all the chorus of leaders Pd) triumphantly announced the approval of the new plan.
is not an isolated case. In Milan, which is involved in a similar - though less in numbers-demographic phenomenon of decrease has been approved which provides a second enthusiast paino City's planning department Masseroli forecasts for 700,000 new citizens! In Turin, the same thing happens. Florence is the headlines for the speculations of the crack. Unfortunately they are not crazy: they are only docile pawns in the hands of a more complex design statement: In recent years a compact cultural and political spectrum that is represented today by the majority opposition Parliament decided that in the city and the territory are concerned exclusively economic and their evolution no longer has any relationship with the real needs of the population.
Let's return to Rome. Those six hundred thousand were expelled from the city the right to have a modern rail transport system that will help them move into the workplace at least making the best living conditions. The increasing number of older people are entitled to services that help them in daily tasks difficult. Young people to have kept parks and decent schools. For these basic rights continue to tell us the vile lie that "no money". Meanwhile, continue to cemented our cities only to feed the appetites of speculation from Santa Giulia in Milan to the two new districts of Rome and Lazio in the capital, the skyscraper of San Paolo in Turin at the level of overbuilding in the castle in Florence. Millions of cubic meters that do not serve the real needs of urban communities but are imposed only by the thought of the "city as an economic engine." Until when?
And those powers that direct the orchestra also continues to say that you can not build because there are too many constraints. Have in hand the major organs of the press (Messenger and Morning: Francesco Gaetano Caltagirone; Time: Domenico Bonifaci, the great all the local newspapers to start New from Sardinia are in the hands of "entrepreneurs" building. If you go up a bit 'Finally, we arrive at the Corriere della Sera on which sit representatives of the families and Ligresti Berlusconi and the banking system that has financed happily every kind of speculation.
There is no other European country that has canceled the public governance of cities. A political elite colluded with us culturally and economically, with honorable exceptions-unless the financial powers and the world of concrete continues to systematically destroy the town planning regulations. One speaks of the fourth building amnesty and further liberalization in this area. And while other European countries are trying to get out of the economic crisis by investing in research, university and in energy-saving technologies, we continue to expand indefinitely the city and then cut local spending, so as to prevent the execution of the works that make civilian neighborhoods. We are a country in the hands of the most fierce speculation.
