"Real students are studying at home, those that occur are the social centers and off-course" . So the widespread protests by students and Italian researchers is well settled by Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi. The answer, however, comes from the same protest of thousands of people flocked to the Italian cities, universities blocked and occupied the symbols of Italian culture to show their disapproval of the Counter-minister Gelmini. Those students and the researchers want to be the main interlocutors of the Italian policy in matters concerning the future belongs to them. They want self-determined their future and protect those rights, in an undemocratic state like the Italian, and made devaluation are the privileged few. The right to education, if that counter was also approved in the Senate, would become a right to buy: it is not possible to talk about scholarships, but student loans to be repaid, plus interest rates, once achieved the degree, the board of directors of the universities is given way to sit at entrepreneurs and private companies to agree on the program and partnership; cuts imposed by Tremonti, according to the same minister needed to address the crisis gripping the economy National would boost the already exorbitant university fees, making the university an unsustainable spending by the vast majority of Italian families.
For the period 2010/2012, the last Financial had expected a cut of over 5 billion euro. The cuts of the government, however, have wiped out the entire cultural production, not only universities and research, but also movies and shows. And 'in fact consists of 232 names to the long list of cultural institutions at risk after the cuts made by the government, among them is the Experimental Center of Cinematography in Rome, the Fondazione Arena di Verona and the Festival of Two Worlds in Spoleto; foundations Gioacchino Rossini in Pesaro, Giorgio Cini Gramsci Institute in Rome, but also the foundation and Lyric-Symphonic Petruzzelli Theatre in Bari and Vieusseux of Florence.
For culture there is no money, but for the wars. In fact, after the approval of the decree of August, voted by PDL, Lega, UDC and PD (the IDV abstained), loans to foreign missions are about 1,350 million euro until the end of 2010. Between the wars financed are those of Afghanistan, Darfur, Bosnia and the Balkans.
accessibility to knowledge, freedom of knowledge and cultural background, are not welcome in Italy. Meanwhile, thousands of students and researchers continue their mobilization. There are ongoing discussions and permanent jobs to the bitter end. In the end they always said: "If we rob the future we block the city." Milan, Bologna, Pisa, Florence, Naples, Palermo and Venice are just some reality of the student protest, and behind these cities are individual universities, individual students and individual researchers are part all one big laboratory of ideas. The future is theirs and not for sale.
