About Aliens and justice
John Pistoia
I like to think that Minisci and Badolati when have decided to write a book on the Italian justice system have had young people as a reference rather than the aliens. To think that an alien, and evolved from a world away from us, decides to come and see how the judicial system functions in Italy is quite paradoxical. But it is a paradox tried, because I believe there is so much paradoxical in debates about how justice is administered in the right homeland.
Italy is a country with justice denied. A disaster for the victims of crimes, and often for the same defendants (I am not referring to those who are hardened criminal or professional criminals, is enhanced by the uncertainty of the punishment and the justice system is inefficient and that more precarious).
a judicial system in many ways defined in the text ( justice told an alien ). The Italian judicial system pays "in a serious crisis of efficiency and functionality, which is becoming a crisis of credibility of justice, "with procedures" cumbersome "in the statements of Luca Palamara, chairman of the national judges, who signed the preface.
Giuseppe Maria Berruti, a judge of the Supreme Court, in the brief introduction speaks of "irrationality," "contradictions," and said peremptorily: "In our system now lacks even the obvious. Missing preconditions in other words, before the conditions of operation. " But are the last lines of which are Berruti meditate. Even seem necessary to seek a new language, a new literary technique to talk about a topic like this, which seems escape the rational schemes accepted and recognized. In the sense that Minisci (Attorney) and Badolati (journalist) to denounce the state of justice (laws, courts, trials, prisons, etc..) Must resort to a kind of "libel" and adopt a kind of "poetic extension" to groped to be heard, and came up with the presence of an alien. An alien who turns out to be, with the arrival of dawn, only the fruit of a dream, or rather a nightmare.
"A system that more than a dream, sometimes it seems to be a real nightmare." These are the last words of the book. A bitter, logical conclusion of a work of undoubted value calendar, which outlines the limits of macroscopic-justice system in Italy in the XXI century.
The themes will certainly complex, are exposed in a style clear and unambiguous vocabulary. The text reads easily. Everything is presented with great simplicity that verges on the simplistic. That's why I think the authors have thought about the young people in drawing up the volume. Especially because they can understand what is really the state of things and what are the proposals - the proposals in the book because there are - to change conditions already unacceptable.
must note that this is a representation of justice as seen from a public prosecutor (the PM, for instance). But this is not a limit. The idea of \u200b\u200b story lies in this: as a PM see the status of the administration of justice and exposes his feelings, even polemical tone polite, to the mysterious alien. You still need to note that the story is accurate, full of practical examples, drawn from the paradoxes trial papers. Not an ideological or theoretical discourse on the sex of angels. The reader may disagree on some proposals but will, I think, acknowledge that it will not go nowhere, we will deliver the entire country to criminal organizations, which are increasingly present and masters of the territory. And not only that.
To change things is essential to a strong political will (which was not trivial, unfortunately inevitable). And that is missing. Beyond the rhetoric about "fighting" crime, the State, in truth, no "system" because the rules are followed and crime destroyed. And a handful of brave men, in the right place at the right time, can not work miracles.
Some final consideration. Pm is the engine of the criminal justice system . On this focuses the attention of the magistrate political controversy. There are many who believe that centralizing too much power. Nothing is taken for ever. Even the figure of the PM and can be viewed in the light of experience and present reality. What shines through, and still more clearly by significant political spectrum (and a lot of hypocrisy in others) is that you want to throw the baby out with all the water. Building a Pm weak, docile, not in the service of the law but of political power. Because the law is not always the same for everyone. Because the entire judiciary is not independent and autonomous from political power, but subordinate to it. The
Justice, in Italy, seeking justice. By the judiciary to the prison, the codes of the processes is no longer tenable. The bankruptcy is complete. An "organizational and legal disaster." We must change because the country will become a truly modern and democratic country. To move forward and not groped on the ground to remove the rubble, authoritarian tendencies.
One thing is certain. The alien and Minisci Badolati, took note of the things on Earth, microcosm of Italy, will never return to visit us. He said that his trip was surreal . He said he has seen things that "we are unthinkable." Who knows if he has left his address on the planet!
