Saviano intervention controversy

E 'again Monday, and while the public post this item Saviano tells a different story (that of mafia infiltration in the disposal of waste) is spreading in the room ...' ear and the eye of the TV on the PC screen.

What does have three medieval knights with the Mafia?

When I saw the image appear three medieval knights behind Saviano, I wondered if this second episode of "Come Away with Me " born under a bad star too much controversy, and the well-known young writer (when I think that is only a year older than me makes me shiver!) would abandon the socio-political themes that made him famous, for avventurasi in an interesting (and certainly more sure) treaty in history.

history spoke true, but what a story!

in our roots, our laws, in our past we find the answers to the great because of this, in mythology is always an element of truth.

Mine was a belief rooted in the study of school anthologies, "the story of the Mafia is relatively recent and organized crime was born in early 800, parallel to the robbery, one of the first challenges of unified Italy. "losing battle, it seems, our ancestors Risorgimento.

not know the law of three English knights : Bone, Mastrosso and Carcagnosso, which represent the fictional tradition of the three major Italian criminal organizations: the Sicilian Mafia, the Camorra bell el '' Ndrangheta in Calabria . Above all, I had no idea yet Today these mythological figures were mentioned during the rites of membership, along with the Saints, and even to Madonna, all in order to put their lives in service only of the honor of "society", inflicting the sentence to a life of flight, hiding and unhappiness ... practically a ergostolo.

Saviano put his finger on, describes the precision with which the mob elaborates its hierarchical systems ... I know that companies would pay to have a plan so accurate! In my ignorance, the Godfather was the top organization - holliwodiana Marlon Brando was in the vision at the top - while I discover with surprise that over the Godfather there are at least another five or six levels of hierarchy.

I was born in that beautiful stretch of land leading from Venice to Padua, famous for its eighteenth-century villas, but especially for the so-called "Mala del Brenta ", which enjoyed its "peak" between the end 60s and early 90s. I have no historical memory of this dramatic period, except for the memory of the ambulance and coroner's car, still on the bank near my house, while the people murmured: " have found another dead Band of Felix Manor ".

naively I admit that my image of Mafia is that it from films set in the States (various "Godfathers" "The Untouchables", etc ...), which for me were already full of cruelty and ruthlessness. Saviano teaches that the American underworld is considered "soggy," not strong enough, so forget the rules, regardless of hierarchy, need to be "purified" with a return to basics.

Finally, I can not skirt the issue on the statements that have sparked a political controversy that seems endless. Spoken dell''Ndrangheta, how the mob has exported his business to North , particularly in Lombardy, in Milan, where the Rho Central Station, the infiltration of organized crime, supported (as always) from the centers of power corrupt, does not even count. Can thus think that the gangs are a problem unique to the South?

South, States, North: the three vantage points from which you started this blog are intertwined when it comes to the great problems of our country. It 'a virtuous (or vicious): from personal to global, from local to national, from micro to macro.
