The restorers of the Venetian Republic are not female.
The Venetian Republic was one of the longest civilizations in history, much longer than the Western Roman Empire, and also of the Greeks, surpassed only by the Celestial Empire, from Persia and Egyptians (at least the last 5000 years).
We Venetians grouped in it have given the world the idea and practice of the modern state.
Not that among us there were not criminals, whoremongers, murderers and criminals. There are also now, for charity.
However, the state worked very very well.
Justice was impartial and also struck the Doges (we achieved the division of powers and the independence of judges even before it was theorized, because it was a culturally obvious fact )
The market was free (because the Venetian does not like the intrusive state), but it was supervised ( the Venetians do not like the position abuse, and we invented the first anti-trust 1200)
They fought and scams those who did not pay (the godwit not only pursued them, but just persecuted them) and illegal trade (citizenship only after they had 20 years of residence).
Navigation was regulated (Today's maritime code is founded on the Veneto one), and combated piracy (the state was acting as an international police for trade ).
The risks of the market and nature were mitigated with the invention of insurance and the condominium for ships (the c.d. “young” )
The environment was respected (judiciary to the waters) it is managed by (moved the rivers Po, Bacchiglione, made many invaded and reclaimed)
The forestry enriched the mountaineers and ran the mountain like a garden, not the stupid environmentalism that leaves an anthropized environment uncultivated and landslide.
The arts and professions were free, but supervised by unions undergoing magistrates (We invented legally unions and corporations )
In power there was a controlling noble caste (the Great Council) But true power was in a much wider organ full of people capable and deserving people (the Senate, the real responsible governance and foreign relations ) .
The disabled workers enjoyed pension (the mutual) as also the poor could access subsidies.
The city was supervised and kept clean through a mixture of private obligations and state service , because the first public takeaway of waste such as public health was Veneto.
E’ impossible to place such a system in the categories of the 19th century, ie between liberalism and socialism, or between right and left.
These views are ideological, The Venetian Republic was real and concrete, He tried the best without prejudice.
For example in the 1500s , The excessive diffusion of homosexuality was not fought with repression but with the incentive of prostitution, evidently betting on female qualities. And they got it, as well as healing as well as prostitution.
But unfortunately there was no way to combat the pedophilia of some priests except with condemnation and exclusion, so much so that on this question the papacy challenged to get excited , up having to force the priests to be put to the soldiers, in order to combat the alas so widespread phenomenon.
He tried to solve problems without ideological quarrels to which we have become accustomed liberals and communists.
For example, the condemnation of rich criminals was sometimes transformed into confinement into poor and unfortunate areas in order to educate them to deeper life values, and at the same time enriching the populations. Today confinement is used to bribe the people with mafia elements.
That the liberal or communist principles do not work alone today is for everyone to see, and budgets of states, who keep the economic system on its feet with enormous injections of capital like the USSR never did. The winning liberalism has created the communism of the elite and the poverty of the masses.
The Venetian Republic that avoided with careful handling and a mix of policies.
Above all, a widespread class very prepared executive, obliged to study, prepare with trips, to change the place of work continuously, in order to avoid cracks, mafias, the gangs, the group furbetti.
All this cost, and taxation was not at all low, Rather, Perhaps it was among the most taxed countries in Europe, but the results were there.
So those who believe, ignorantly, there were few taxes, He did not understand anything of the Venetian splendor.
The result of this state “ethical” They indicate that the criminals how wrong was that the Venetian people lived in “Well” Common and justice, and that well-being not only the state was social, but people were also free.
If we find a comparison today we should look at the conditions of the Swedish people. Only at that time only the Venetians were living in such conditions. Everywhere there was misery, violence,oppression, injustice, abuse …… Opps is today's Italy.
To achieve all this and maintain it for centuries was a certain nobility also composed of non -Venetians but naturalized.
Part of the Venetian nobility came from the Adriatic islands and Candia (today Crete), as from Byzantium, but also from Italy and perhaps even some Lombards.
He was able to escape from the crisis of Commons with a kind of coup, the “serrata” the Great Council, that excluded the people from decisions (except the confirmation of the Doge) and in return he guaranteed its well -being.
There were obviously also the factions between nobles, CON I “Young people” Hey “old people”, the rich and the poor, but the people were always guaranteed maximum possible. So much so that the Venetian people have never learned to do politics, a tara that today costs him the servitude.
Making policy also means eliminating harmful to the common good. That does not happen today among the Venetians, but not even in the rest of Italy, if quietly goes forward in certain bankruptcy .
Warning that did not exist for a noble Venetian caste privilege like today to Italian politicians and magistrates.
There was also assistance for the poor Venetian nobles !
After “serrata” lasted for 5 centuries , half a millennium, and unfortunately at a certain point the quality exchange of the nobility was lacking, as lacking today in Italy.
The nobles themselves were aware, so much so that just before the fall (1797) an epochal reform of the institutions was completed which introduced a new pervasive element of all secular architecture : the people of elections. The reform was designed and engineered to well 20 years, and ready for implementation, but it was never implemented because of the little fall before, which would have taken even pretend any justification to Napoleon.
All this to say that the Venetians who think today to return to the Venetian Republic as it was, with the same architecture , most likely they do not even know what they're talking.
I do not believe that the Venetians today want a small group of noble male decides the fate of all the people.
I don't think they want the dignity of the vote to the Venetian women, because so it was in the Venetian Republic.
It must be said that their role of women in Venetian culture has always been important and taken into account (except under the Italian monarchy). But we really want to remove the equal legal dignity today as Islam does ?
They want the Venetians that some rich families, or groups of people, monitor the fate of the Venetian nation ?
I do not think so, even if today's Italy is precisely this , even further back than we were 500 Years ago.
I really do not think so.
So it is necessary that the Venetians do the values ​​that guided the Venetian Republic's own cultural horizon, but all, including those in which they had arrived from Veneto: Elections and equality of the sexes.
We must take as an example what did our ancestors, maybe they could even just to match them.
Many of the achievements made by the Venetian Republic are real utopias for the Italian Republic, For example, the little corruption and the impartiality of the justice that reigned there. Not to say state control of money and public debt (now in the hands of private bankers).
But this cannot make us forget that the equality of the sexes is definitely an absolute not questionable value.
Those who think of realizing the return to Venetian sovereignty and the contextual suppression of women's rights, has already lost, And I will stay with women.
Mine is not an abstract discussion: also between certain Serenissimi, as between certain Catholic, you see in the woman a being to keep at bay, with different human rights.
When asking for the return to Venetian sovereignty as it was , He asked this: a woman's retreat.
oh God, if we think about all of us are voting today for nothing. But the principle itself must not be confused, the right to vote, with its Italian application, which is certainly not that of civil countries.
This cultural and philosophical level, but also on the legal.
Indeed, in a sense, It was the Venetian nobility a “return” power to the people with that act of 12 May 1797. It can be read and it will be seen that the nobility resigned from its role by returning the power seized with the tightness of the 1200. sure, it was not a free act since otherwise Napoleon would have destroyed the city. And do not go back on the issue of quorum, that did not exist (I will correct myself if someone shows the opposite with the law that imposed it: It did not exist).
But at the same time the act of 12 May was “betrayal” of the Veneto State by the Nobility, who renounced the defense of the state, crime of cowardice. On the other hand, it was a part of the Venetian nobility that betrayed the people : For these reasons the nobility will not be reborn. Rather, Not only are there no longer the lists of nobles (l’Albo d’Oro) , But most likely there are no more noble Venetians according to the rules of succession as it was imposed that the mother was also.
However in the meantime the Venetian people had the right to elections, and the right to decide their future (the right to self-government), which has become the international legal heritage of every people . Denying this would be like asking for the restoration of slavery.
Rather, the Venetians of today recall it to have sovereignty, inappropriately talk about it for an alleged referendum.
These rights were not provided by the Venetian Republic, Rather, they were denied by the nobility.
At the time of the Venetian Republic were the peoples of the land, and the territory was bought and sold by the nobles as any object, with people inside. For example, the Venetian Republic bought Dalmatia, like Cyprus, giving in exchange for money or other land.
So if you want the Venetian republic as it was, It must be accepted that it gave himself to the invader by means of the nobles.
And the new boss, Napoleon, I dismembered it and did what he wanted.
Then when everything was restored, a Vienna, The Venetian people had no word because others were the masters.
Only later did the Venetian people have the right to express their will.
If you accept that there was the right of the Venetian people to decide their own destiny, then the sovereignty can be demanded starting from the passage of the 1866, but with the idea that there was a right of the Venetian people, not of the nobility or some humans who declare himself doge today.
In particular females who today want to go back to the Venetian Republic as it was, Male I say that the rules of the Venetian republic they should sit silent in political matters, They can not claim to have the word ! (but I am “feminist” ). And there was also a well-known serenissimo who told me that for him the woman should be essentially taken into account for the reproduction and not for the vote.
They are theoretical discussions, because legally the Venetian Republic has been transformed into a state that provided for the people's elections, albeit limited to those who could pay for the right to vote.
The Venetian people has, for international law, right to the elections and I will not discuss this , it is completely deficient to do it.
I already said it: Unfortunately, on the level of the right of compensation, it is not possible to legally return to the Venetian Republic as it is, Unfortunately because compensation would be enormous.
But can we get back to the state that in the meantime it was transformed , state succession, Lombardy and Veneto, which it offers the advantage-disadvantage of the people elections (Also the females of course) moreover violated in 1866.
And in this I feel very Venetian , because it was what the Venetian Republic itself wanted , the duration reform 20 years was about to launch its own elections.
Given this pragmatic and thus optical Venetian, There are those who today think about declaring themselves doge or head of the Marciana Church.
There seems to be who is illuminated every night from San Marco, ordering him to restore the church “copta” (!).
Not only, We even least 3 self-proclaimed Dogi, and even an Opus Dei lawyer who gets the papers signed to be the holder of all powers, perhaps you are having to do the bidding of his Freemasonry to the Vatican account …..
And not counting those boasting noble descent would be recognized only allowed to Dogado ….
I don't discuss these things no more than this page. I think it's a little’ difficult to think back to the Venetian Republic as it is, if not silly given the social conditions. They say that politics is the art of the possible.
And since above all it is not legally possible to return to the Venetian Republic, It seems to me that those who pursue this street is more than anything else an time wasters and who is around them.
The Republic is the cultural horizon, not the legal one.
The only path of legal sovereignty, that can, As I say to 14 years, and one that I myself have started in 1999 with the self-government of the Veneto people, become in 2006 successor of the Lombardo-Veneto (ie the Venetian Republic), at least according to the laws in force today and according to international rules. Then if someone appears San Marco ….. I stop.
Who does not understand that among many “venetisti” There are also marginalized, demented, stoned and criminals, It is certainly not worthy of governing .
I am proposing the only possible way, and who does not follow me or worse defames, He is only doing harm to the Venetian, the Venetian people.
