Decorations For Backyard Engagement Party

Adriano Romualdi: because there is a culture of Google News right

One of the reasons that more use our press and in conversations of our environment is the condemnation of the massive left alignment of Italian culture. This sentence is worded in a tone a little 'sorry, a bit' surprised was almost unnatural that the culture is now deployed in that direction while at right is an almost complete vacuum. Usually we try to account for this state of things with explanations cheap, the kind of explanations that serve to reassure themselves and allow to remain on the surface of things. It is said - for example - that culture is to the left because there is the greatest amount of money, publishing houses, means of propaganda. It is also said that it would take the wind changed so many "committed leftist" review their engagement.
In all this there is some truth. A culture, or rather, the launch base in culture has a need, but also organization, money, propaganda. There is no doubt that the overwhelming predominance of the editions of address Marxist, socialist film, calls all'engagément many who - in different climate - would remain neutral. But this should not obscure the real cause of the ideological predominance of the hegemony of the Left. It lies in the fact that there are no conditions for a culture, there is a unitary concept of materialistic life, democratic, humanitarian, liberal. This vision of the world and life can take on different nuances, can become radicalism and communism, scientism and neoilluminismo background psicoanalizzante, Marxism and militant Extracted positive Christianity "social". But you are always faced with a unified vision of man, the purposes of history and society. From this common conception of a massive production originates non-fiction, historical, literary, which can be mean and poor, but has its own logic, its own inner coherence. This logic, this consistency have a growing fascination on educated people. It is no secret that a large number of teachers and university average is comunistizzato, and that the teaching of comunistizzazione spreads with frightening speed. And among young people who have the habit of reading, the guidelines left to gain ground eyes.
From the Right none of this. We wander in a depressing penny made of conservatism and bourgeois respectability. You read articles which claims that the culture takes more account of the "patriotic values", the "moral" all in a picturesque confusion of ideas and languages. On the left you know what you want. Whether you are talking about the nationalization of electricity or planning, or Italy in the history of psychoanalysis, is always working on a specific purpose, to disseminate a certain mentality, a certain conception of life. To the right is groping uncertainty, nell'imprecisione ideological. It is "patriotic Risorgimento" and ignore the dark aspects of democratic and masonic coexisted with the idea of \u200b\u200bunity in the Risorgimento. Or it is for a "national liberalism", forgetting that the liberal mercantilism and nationalism libertarian contributed powerfully to destroy the European order. Or, again, we speak of "nation-state of the job" and forget that the Italian republic founded on work we have already - unfortunately - and in these terms that reduce our only alternative means of lowering the social status of complement. Perhaps the less educated men are not many on the right and left. If considering that the majority of the electorate is bourgeois right, it must be concluded that there are plenty who have done high school and should have contracted a certain "habit of reading." But while the man of the left also has some elements of culture of the left ear and Marx, Freud, Salvemini, hardly the right man has a right to cultural awareness. He does not suspect the importance of Nietzsche in the criticism of civilization, has never read a novel by Jünger or Drieu La Rochelle, ignores the Sunset West not doubt that the French Revolution it was a great page in the history of human progress. As long as you remain in the culture he is a good liberal, maybe some 'nationalist and patriot. It is only when he begins to talk about policy that is different: is that Mussolini was a good man and did not want war, and that Pasolini's films are "dirty." Very little is needed to realize that right if there is a culture that is because there is no real idea of \u200b\u200bthe Right, a qualitative view of the world, aristocratic, agonistic, a coherent vision on top of certain interests of certain nostalgia and certain oleographs policies.
