What Country Is Lladro From

ROSARNO

A Rosarno lived thousands of illegal immigrants. Men and women who had abandoned their land and who no longer had any rights, not social services, not for unemployment benefits, no retirement.
When landowners have held that the crisis of agriculture no longer make it to harvest the fruits of the earth, have stopped recruiting. The irregular
were found to hunger in their cardboard houses, in a abandoned warehouse, to wander the streets without a cent of a country that suddenly recognized them as subjects hostile, threatening.
Some say that behind the uprising Rosarno behind that kind of replay of the Executioner who spring Ciccio Franco, it is the work of the 'Ndrangheta, the mafia for a few days earlier he had launched another sign: the bomb before the Law Courts of Reggio Calabria.
The hypothesis could not be excluded a priori.
is not impossible to attempt a diversion, a strategy of blackmail. Those responsible might occur.
But the point is another.
There are two conflicting poverty in Italy: the South, never grew up, immature, and that of migrants fleeing from poverty more acute. A myth refuted
never read that terrorism had not taken root in the South, the presence of mafia organizations.
In other words: no politics, no subversion, no ideology.
Now, racism is not a simple attitude: it is the ideology of the supremacy of one race over another. And I do not think there is racism, nor in Rosario or elsewhere in Italy. But I also know that xenophobia, literally the fear of strangers, can be breeding grounds of the worst ideologies, from racism. And I know that taking place between Africa, Asia and Europe, is the largest migration in human history, and think that to oppose them with simple prohibitions is an illusion.
This revolt would lead us to a series of reflections. How
will combine the illegality of our South xenophobia that is before our eyes?
Since crime has also, though not exclusively, social origin, which will produce the results between the fatal intersection different crime?
What policies are needed to restore humanity to our city, economically impoverished by the crisis and - morally - from the fear?
