But the league wants it Federalism?
O for the league the term federalism is a smokescreen ...
One way to say to get votes?
And what the league wants to federalism? But not only the league, what we talk about federalism?
publish in this regard, an article by our new contributor:
"I was imagining a scene more or less evangelical.
A diverse crowd, wildly diverse, fragmented in a random order ... 'infamous horde immersed in a wave of nauseating busy swearing in the activity that most suits her: Order!
And there, front, softly silent awaiting trial, you ... adultery federalism!
Adulteress, of course.
Courted by most, but incapable of a stable relationship. - Continuity with the image.
Under "who has never adulterated with it, having always respected and honored, let him cast the first stone", I would expect to see a flying rock thrown from an unusual character named League, claiming sinless and stably married to it.
But instead, nothing ... not even a pebble.
And then the disappointment of the crowd ... bye
see, there's a worm in my mind, that haunts me now for a bit 'of time, I was able to isolate and identify, and it is this: is there anyone who really wants'm blessed federalism??
For my efforts, I find no yes!
But maybe I'm thinkin 'a bit' of confusion: political federalism, administrative and fiscal devolution. ... Mah
Then I tried to see and analyze it from the perspective of those who at present is in the forefront, and dealing with everyday ripples of the government-citizen relationship, is in the trenches at the front: the common.
It is now known to most that federalism is that "political doctrine array Enlightenment (eighteenth century) that rejects the separation between states and proposed federation" (Encicl. "The Garzantine).
In Italy, federalism as early as 1945 to have been inspired by some active autonomist movements, and with more determination, since the '80s, the Northern League. At its most masterful, or political-institutional federalism transfuses its peculiarities in the so-called administrative federalism operational (defined as a transfer to the regions and local government functions and financial resources of the central government) and federalism (understood as a principle officer of the tax system under which local governments decide, at least in part, the measure of tax burden in its territory and receive the proceeds).
The term decentralization (devolution), indeed, adopted dalla Gran Bretagna nei confronti della Scozia, si indica il trasferimento di poteri dallo stato centrale alle autorità locali, al fine di accrescerne l'autonomia decisionale (nel 2001, il governo Berlusconi aveva istituito il Ministero senza portafoglio "per le riforme istituzionali e la devoluzione" assegnandolo a Bossi).
A qualunque di questi concetti io faccia riferimento, fatico a scorgere, nel nostro paese, risvolti operativi ed applicativi di una qualsivoglia forma di decentramento.
Il dubbio che sempre più mi assale, ma che al contempo lascia sempre più spazio ad una fastidiosa certezza, è che, in realtà, il federalismo nessuno lo vuole, nemmeno la Lega.
Perché? Boh!
Forse per paura di a loss of power and authority from the state.
It 's true that in 2001, with the Constitutional Law 3, which led to a substantial revision of Title V of the Constitution, the work of structuring of federalism has been a milestone, but it is equally true that the problems are many applications still open and that, to be honest, a few steps back has been done.
Article. 114 of the Constitution, as reformulated by L. Est. 3 / 2001, defines the substance of the Italy of the joint: "The Republic is composed of the Municipalities, Provinces, Metropolitan Cities, Regions and the State. Municipalities, provinces, metropolitan cities and regions are autonomous entities [...] ".
The list of what the Republic is just part of the Municipalities.
And this is no accident.
E 'public administration closer to the citizen.
Without going into technical and academic discourses in and doctrine on how this reform has affected the relationship between the sources of law, and the relationship between the state and regional legislative power, it can be argued that the legislature has the constitutional right laid the groundwork for the political-institutional federalism (art. 114 Cost . above), for administrative federalism (Article 118 of the Constitution
"Administrative functions are attributed to the municipalities [...]"), and the financial and fiscal federalism (Article 119 of the Constitution "Municipalities, provinces, metropolitan cities and regions shall have independent financial revenue and expenditure).
But these solid bases (bases are constitutional!) Are not followed equally strong federal policy.
fact. Often
steps have been taken in the opposite direction. Let us see what.
municipal revenues are divided into two broad categories, those ones and their derivatives. Those depend on their ability to raise resources (or taxation: ICI, public spaces occupation tax, imposed on advertising and on public billboards, or the provision of services to individual applications: gyms, sports facilities ...), those derived stem (exactly) paid by transfers from central government. The more own revenue, a percentage of total revenue, the greater the financial autonomy of the Commune. Well. Until 2007, every town of Italy in 8100, could count on sharing income tax of a certain size, or a portion IRPEF that the state collects the tax base of the municipality, he returned to the municipal coffers. This portion, up to 2006 was approximately 7%, from about 2007 to 0.7%. This lesser amount was offset by a greater transfer state representative. Not bad, I say, because the municipal budget does not change anything. Not bad, sure, except that the partnership income tax "snap" revenue municipalities the ability to produce income of the citizens of that town, while transfers / fees, any link between the wealth produced in a certain town, and the town itself is not. With the partnership, a portion of taxes levied in a given territory, return to that territory, the transfer state representative, no! Reduce the cost will outweigh with transfers / fees, therefore controlled by the central government, federalism is a choice? But we
ICI. One of the first things done by the present government was to abolish the ICI on the first house. Very good. But you know the continuation of the story? This was only the first time. The second is not. The revenue forgone ICI certificate T his fair by each municipality, is offset by increased transfers / fees. Well
. Abolish the ICI (local tax), offset them with transfers / fees (central government) is a federalist choice? Probably I'll be accusing anyone of not wanting to reduce the tax burden. But this reflects
someone: for the Town Hall coffers does not change almost anything: instead of cash in respect of ICI, the municipality collects as a transfer. The money that was paid as a transfer resulting from taxation of the entire national territory. This means that the money that the first citizens of the City of Mira paid as ICI, now do not pay them more, as the same amount is paid by all Italian citizens, but equally, the citizens of Citadel, will pay a lower tax ICI citizens of all other municipalities in Italy ... any reference to the territory is lost!
We also think about the constraints that the state requires each municipality, for the enforcement of the Stability Pact, on spending (a couple of years ago, also on individual items of expenditure). Where is the budgetary autonomy? The Prodi government had foreseen, as a sanction for municipalities that did not respect the stability pact, the increase in the municipal income tax for the citizens of that municipality. Although the questionable principle that the consequences of mismanagement of the local administrators were allowed to fall on the citizens, was the federalist principle of responsibility to the directors in the eyes of its citizens.
The current government changed the system of sanctions, imposed strict controls and cost constraints which effectively cancel out the financial autonomy of the town ... That's funny ... I do not say it was more federalist than the current Prodi government, but if At least, doubt creeps. I'm
federalism is courted by several political parties, but it seems that nobody is able to establish a stable and enduring. We will see with the new code of local
