yesterday prodi's government collapsed. the reasons could be easy to explain (but the framework reason are deep), in fact happened that the minister of justice's (mastella) wife, who is politician in Campania(region of italy, the main city there is naples) was accused to have managed the employment in costumer way. he said that is an act against him made by judicial power and that in Italy every politician do the things which his wife did (he is also accused by another judician, by the way),adding at the end that, if the government won t show solidarity at him, he will leave the government. Of course was not possible because in a "DEMOCRACY" to have solidariety you should before finish the process and be considered innocent, at least to conserve the separation of powers.
this case could be take to do some consideration.
1. mastealla is a leader of a party which had at the last election 1,5% of vote, how could be possible to menage a government if someone with 1,5% can decide to keep in life or not the executive power?
actually the problem about it is that when berlusconi was premier, he knew that he didn t have possibility to win against prodi, that's why he changed electoral law to avoid stability to the next government....it s easy and clear I think.
2. mastella in his comments blamed the judicial power, he is minister of justice!
3. mastella put in crisis the government for personal reason.
the mastella case is just a point of iceberg, because he is right when he said that every politician do the same, but CAN NOT be a justification.
For my foreigner friends. in Italy after the 1994 we had the transition from the first republic to the second. the first collapsed because the judicial power tried to put the end at a domination of the parties in every situation, to have a work, to have a bed in the hospital and to have any kind of normal service, the citizen was obliges to call and ask a "pleasure" at a politician. For people was really good to don t be slave of some fucking politician. the score was that the main parties involved in this situation disappeared, but the survived politician tried to always at the power, without really care about the color of the party, and above without brake the way to have vote. Of course nothing has really changed because
Parliament is full of mastella who are recycled from the first republic and in love with a kind to do politic which look just at the benefits. the salary of the politician are the most expensive in europe, and they have a lot of exclusive that I avoid to say.
as for the previous posts, l don t if I have been clear, but explaining in english technical things is not easy and add that in topic like this the passion take the windward

"Mastella ended up voting against his former ally and expected the other members of his party to follow suit. But one, Nuccio Cusumano, announced that he would support Prodi. Mastella's Christian Democrats began chanting, "Traitor!" Someone spat on Cusumano, who fainted and was taken away on a stretcher."
I ve always thought that politics in Greece are the most dissappointing in Europe, but these days I think Italy is the champ. And this is not a honourary title :(
