In a room of the Italian Institute for Philosophical Studies, despite the crowded Saturday afternoon, was presented the book of the deputy of the Democratic Party and Secretary to the Prime Minister Sandro Gozi, entitled "Playlist Italian. The left and the courage to change the music. "
The composition of a Music Playlist is a true act of love made ​​by people who know and love music in a visceral and at the same time attentive to changes in the reality that surrounds him.
SANDRO GOZI, in an appealing manner, using the duality music / politics, makes a careful and realistic - but at the same time exciting - overview of Italian politics and the changes in society and its moods.
Gozi accompanies each chapter with a piece of music, ranging from hard rock to the softness of the soul, until agiugere to indie music and independent, he decided to describe in words and simple at the same time, the status of politics in Italy, his emergency - now emergency - to be closer to people's needs. The music has changed and also the policy must change course through the "passion" and "want to do."
"The subtitle of the book" The Left and the courage to change music "- he said in his speech Gozi - it's definitely a commitment and a hope. It is a good omen because it is obvious that the left needs new interpreters. Just to be in the musical metaphor, I believe that we can no longer offer Nilla Pizzi citizens who listen to Daft Punk! If the left is not renewed, the population will become increasingly hard to follow and eventually stop trying. On the other hand I say that is a commitment, because I, along with many other people I work with, I want to be part of this process of change. "
"Many things need to be changed - said Michele Capasso after being cited by Gozi for its action in the euro Mediterranean dialogue - but the change can not be represented only by empty advertisements of chapter titles and media projections. The renewal must be a collaborative effort a symphonic movement, always to be in the musical metaphor. They are, therefore, new ideas, proposals, effort and, above all, men and women capable of passionate and take charge of everything. "
Capasso then recalled how 25 years ago in this institute, was born the idea of the Mediterranean Foundation with a large poster for the United States in Europe and that, today, after a quarter of a century, those proposals are still relevant today.
