BOOKS: 'The taking of Rome', CERASA TELLS THE CAPITAL AGE ALEMANNO a trip to the 'city that is not seen' to see who will now move the destinies
Rome, November 7 (Adnkronos) -''What lies behind the extraordinary rise of Gianni Alemanno? For reasons such as a city decides to entrust his fate to a man from the past so busy? Because the right knows better about the safety of the left? Which billionaire businessman hiding behind the government of the different mayors of Rome? What are the powers that Alemanno has managed to win? Who are the men who together with the new mayor is preparing a plan for groped to succeed current Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi?''. From the need to find an answer to these questions and many more born''The capture of Rome''(Bur, 218 pp., € 9.80), Claudio Cerasa.
To understand who today is taking its destiny in the capital, Ceraso, editor of 'Il Foglio',''enter the city you can not see.'' A recount is himself, in the introduction to the volume: groped to explain to the Rome of today, he writes, must''speak with people who hold it in hand, you have to go into the rooms of the palaces of power, listen to the needs of Tassinari more aggressive, the most exclusive country clubs, the desires of the most marginal of curvaroli, the post-Fascist. We must look at the history and locations of manufacturers, banks, entrepreneurs of the Church. And put together the pieces of a mosaic of voices, those of the vanquished and those of the winners, to be able to see who, from behind the scenes, really controls the capital of Italy.''
''The capture of Rome "is the chronicle of the revolution and the secrets of a city from the years of Rutelli and Veltroni to this day.''By the elections of April 28, 2008 - writes Cerasa - there has been a historic U-turn which has completely upset the geography of power not only Roman but also Italian: block consensus related to the center of Walter Veltroni has crumbled and the center of Gianni Alemanno won Rome. equilibria worn out of the city have collapsed in a flash the most disadvantaged suburbs, old red strongholds, to lobby more untouchable, there has been a real revolution. In those months, and in subsequent years, there has to be found in front of a reality that was profoundly transforming both indestructible powers gradually taking new forms. The Rome of today is like a river after the storm: the bed of the river reveals who has withstood the full and who is not, and reveals who has suffered a wave and who has dominated.'' The
''a lot of attention dedicated by the mayor of Rome now Tremonti, now in Caltagirone, now Casini and the great degree of autonomy offered to Augello, and a Croppi Rampelli led some critics to Alemanno to remind him that to win a war can be very dangerous to be surrounded by allies too, because those who are too inclined to compromise can never make a revolution - writes Cerasa - But the fact is that now Alemanno has made a clear choice and felt it takes a bit 'of everything. a bit 'of lobbyists and a bit' of builders, a bit 'of taxi drivers and a bit' of entrepreneurs, a bit 'of fascists and a little' assessors groped to make the bang, groped to make the miracle and to be able one day to present the most important policy summit of Italy and whispering the same word whispered that night in 2008. Taken.''
