Dear Colleagues / and
I am attaching a good article by the portal web-yahoo-news of February 18, 2011, regarding the official confirmation of the national holiday for the Unification of Italy for 17 March 2011. : The Council

Ministers gave the green light to the decree establishing a national holiday on March 17.

On March 17, 2011 is officially a public holiday. After weeks of controversy, the CDM has commented favorably on the national holiday set up for the anniversary of the Unification of Italy. Italians poptranno then celebrate the anniversary with a beautiful bridge: March 17 and Thursday, and we can bet that many will enjoy two days off from 'sticking' the weekend.

But it was not an easy decision, despite promises of Russia and now were fighting for the holiday. Travel over the controversy that has kept the 'holiday' with bated breath until now.

KINGDOM OF ITALY - On 17 March 1861 the first Italian Parliament, then based in Turin, he proclaimed the birth of the Kingdom of Italy. In fact, the emergence of Italy as we know it today, though no longer the kingdom but a republic. Even if they're missing a number of regions that today make up (others, however, were lost, like Istria, after the end of the Second World War). Exactly 150 years ago and the anniversary will be remembered by a long series of festivities and celebrations. For example, the same day of 17 March was proclaimed a national holiday, such as the anniversary of the proclamation of the Republic, June 2. But on March 17 will be such, that is a national holiday, for this year only and then return a day like any other.

THE WORLD OF WORK - For days, the politicians, but not only them, discussed and argued. It all began when the chairman of Confindustria, Emma Marcegaglia, he began by saying that it is better if March 17 Italians come to work like every other day. "The celebration is essential," he said, "but in a moment like this a burden of four billion euro for businesses may not be the best for their growth." Four billion euro would be the amount that companies would lose if no one will go to work March 17. The echoed Raffaele Bonanni, secretary of the CISL: "I regret that we must fight anche sulla giornata dell'Unità d'Italia" aveva detto "ma secondo me le istituzioni avrebbero fatto bene a discutere e a verificare con le parti sociali l'impatto economico della festa. Se le avessero coinvolte, sarebbe stato meglio". Più pilatesco il segretario della Uil Luigi Angeletti che ha proposto di unificare la festa del 2 giugno e quella del 17 marzo in una sola festività. La segretaria dalla Cgil Susanna Camuso sarebbe invece d'accordo nel concedere una giornata di riposo ai lavoratori: "Sarò economicista ma quest'anno 25 Aprile e Primo Maggio cadono rispettivamente il Lunedì dell'Angelo e di domenica: mi pare che si possa fare a meno di questa discussione e si possa dare un po' di riposo ai lavoratori che ne hanno bisogno, quei just because so many are working in layoffs. "

POLICY - The first to attack the decision to have a celebration on March 17 were some members of the League. Officially, for the same reasons as Marcegaglia, but there are those who suspect that the real reason is their antipathy to the idea of \u200b\u200bunification of Italy that has always animated the thinking of the League, a much longer now, but anyway. Calderoli For the minister to celebrate would be unconstitutional because it violates the opinion of the budget committee on economic coverage. 'In a time of crisis like the present I do not think should bear the costs of a public holiday that would surely have an impact on the private sector, in addition to the possibility to expand into a 'bridge' that would be created accordingly.'' He added the minister:''And I repeat that a significant event as the 150th Unit of Italy may be worthily celebrated working or going to school and staying at home. "

More condescends another Northern League, the governor of Veneto Luca Zaia: "Total freedom of conscience," said said. He has however stated, on March 17 will work like any other day. "There must be complete freedom of conscience, on the other hand in the face of the 'Unit. I just remember, "he said Zaia" on 12 October 1976, the Andreotti government, in agreement with the opposition led by Berlinguer and trade unions, the party changing the classification of the Republic, 2 June, as Italy was in need of work. An episode that makes you think, especially these days. "But the League is not only to be opposed or doubtful on the grant holiday on March 17.

The President of the Province of Bolzano, Durnwalder, has explicitly stated that he does not adhere to the party for the Unification of Italy. "The German linguistic group has nothing to celebrate," he said. "In 1919 we were not asked if we wanted to make par-te of the Italian state and hence will not participate though. Free assessors Italian but do not repre-sentation of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano. Durnwalder's words have angered, and a lot, the Head of State. Who replied: "The president of the province of Bolzano can not speak on behalf of an alleged 'Austrian minorities', forgetting even as representative of the Italian and Ladin-speaking populations, and especially that the same population will language German and Italian-that is felt in its large majority. " Angered

Ignazio La Russa. The former leader of AN commented on those who do not want to celebrate: "On March 17, must be a" celebration complete, "a" series A. The truth is that if it was not complete feast, the celebration of the 150th Unit 'of Italy, would be a party 'series B' like the many already existing and often pass almost unnoticed, unfortunately. March 17 should be real party. Serie A Justifiably confident that the President of the Republic can not be otherwise. "

What said the Education Minister Maria Stella Gelmini?" The best way to celebrate schools' do not give a day off in more, but spend the day dedicating deepening the themes of the Renaissance, linked to 150 years of history of our country '. In the event that the schools should remain closed, this would also be a problem for parents and it would be wrong to equate the anniversary to any day of vacation. It 's something more than a day di vacanza''.
Ma ci sono altri che invece la festa la vogliono, eccome, Il sindaco di Firenze Matteo Renzi ad esempio: ''La mia posizione è che le scuole devono rimanere chiuse il 17 marzo'' ha detto. "E' festa nazionale non c'è discussione e faremo una grande festa. A Firenze, nella notte tra il 16 e 17, ci saranno appuntamenti molto belli. E poi, nella notte tra giovedì e venerdì, a mezzanotte alzeremo il tricolore che mi ha consegnato il Presidente Napolitano sul tetto del nuovo teatro del Maggio musicale''.
