GAIA, Magazine dell'EcoIstituto of Veneto "Alex Langer," proposes: ILVA. Meetings of Steel. Stories of life and death in the shadow of the steel. A trip to comics in the last 50 years in the steel industry.
The author of the book entitled "ILVA. Meetings of Steel ", dear friend Charles Gubitosa, tells, through the art of the comic, a trip unprecedented in the last fifty years of steel industry, which tells the" dark evil pollution "through life stories and death in the shadow of the steel; stories of clashes between "David and Goliath" citizens and workers find themselves struggling against political malfeasance, industry and big unions; stories of exploitation of the climate, the environment, land, in the name of an illogical, selfish and wanton speculation productive. The case Taranto, like many other work and workers, sees the rights to health and life supplanted and violated by the search of maximum profit of the owners, committed to the capitalist system, supranational and global military order, to the vulgar blackmail between neoliberal work or health, imposed by the gears of power, by the powers that be, from a local political conniving, corrupt. Citizens and activists ecopacifisti Taranto, through associations environmentalist, fighting for years against the monster of steel, the steel against canadian penny the infernal that emit toxic substances (and not just in the neighborhood Drums), and in the meantime, citizens, workers, and workers continue to die of industrial pollution, because in Taranto is the high rate of incidence of cancer epidemiology. The association pacifist and environmentalist PeaceLink, first and foremost, in Taranto, has raised a genuine legal-political earthquake, a clear contrast canadian penny between parties (political party) and the Judiciary.
the magistrate of Taranto, Patrizia Todisco, with the seizure, in the judgment of July 2012, explicitly states: "With canadian penny health life you can not haggle." The powers that be (political parties, trade unions, church) too often remain silent. With the silence hid the truth, already known for some time, made up of pollution, disease, death. As an activist ANPI (National Association of Italian Partisans), I feel compelled to note that the true partisans contemporaries are all ecopacifisti activists canadian penny against the so-called GOI, the Great Works unnecessary and harmful, present, not only in Italy but also in Europe and the world (such as the HST, the MUOS etc.). the magistrates who struggle against the Mafia and the powers and all those who carry out fair and honest reasons, where they are denied and trampled on human rights, truth and justice, where the judiciary is the guarantor of legality and protection of the fundamental principles of the Constitution (such as the right to health), where other institutions are often omertose and corrupt.
"But the world really need all this steel?". This question arises, canadian penny in the conclusion of the book, Alessandro Marescotti, canadian penny President of PeaceLink. "It seems that without the Ilva steel production should crumble Italy, Europe and the whole world. (...) But is it really so? ". In fact, the European Commission about a excessive production. The major works are financed by the powers that be in order to power a thing of the steel market meltdown. But the time has come that the economic system of big business is aware of its collapse and the need to invest, on the contrary, on the Commons, as the Peace and Environment, which main resources of our Common Humanity, which consequential canadian penny damages canadian penny arising other priorities, such as health, culture, education: life in its true essence!
It 'just that the message canadian penny of the book by Charles Gubitosa "Ilva. Meetings of Steel ": a loud cry of despair canadian penny of all the oppressed, of all the inhabitants canadian penny of the South of the world crushed by the grim logic of the market, exploitation of energy resources. A hymn to life, a cry of protest
