The torments of political forms.

Di Nicolò Migheli

This article is not written to the IRS. Irsologi there are too many who would like to have their say. No way because it is right that that organization has the serenity to discuss and argue, to find the best organizational forms for your project. Although the debate is to arrive by internal exile to the press, regional television and on the web. This, it is now a public fact, allows people who want to express an opinion. The events of that movement (party?) Are the starting point for reflection on issues that affect the lives of all political organizations, their structure, the relationship between leadership and constituencies, including participation and delegation. Issues that have characterized the life of organized forms of politics, especially those on the left, throughout the twentieth century, with sometimes dramatic results.

enough to remember the bloody clash in the English civil war between communists and anarchists Buenaventura Derri Diaz and Jose Dolores Ibarruri. The conflict between a vision that animated and institutionalized. Even more so today, where parties tend to prefer structured than light in a direct relationship between leaders and voters. A sort of one to one without intermediation, aided by the use of the communication medium of television, the press and social networks. In this contemporary atomized everyone in the pocket book of Max Stirner "The Ego and Its Properties", the fundamental text anarchist individualism. A set of individuals concorrenti riesce a darsi un obiettivo comune e a perseguirlo? Riescono ad auto organizzarsi in gruppi, associazioni, partiti? Bastano i meccanismi spontanei di autoregolamentazione sociale? Le gerarchie riconosciute e condivise hanno ancora un senso?

In Italia, dalla comparsa politica di Berlusconi in poi, anche a sinistra si è ricercato, senza mai trovarlo, il leader che si vorrebbe carismatico. Dotato di visione "profetica", che sappia indicare la terra promessa, che attragga a sé, in virtù delle proprie capacità comunicative, della sua "narrazione", prima gli aderenti al suo movimento e poi gli elettori. Questo tipo di leadership normalmente tende a prendere decisions in perfect solitude, to justify them, sometimes after, because in his person that the movement is its legitimacy. Based on the popular will in the election and the foundations of his authority. In doing so, however, tends to produce behavior that can be replicated by other elected close to him. The movement to charismatic leadership is limited to provide a broad framework, not knowing the delegation or limited because of the direct relationship is nourished, grows out of proportion the "interpreters" of the will of the chief who at times can be disclaimed by latter.

organizational behavior works well during the nascent state of the movement, especially when being together is a search of identity, recognition, belonging and a one differentiate from the rest of the world, often perceived as hostile. When the leader is the "mirror". In it, his way of being you recognize all those who adhere to that movement. This is adequate to reality when the movement takes on wider responsibilities? How to ensure real participation of members who no longer satisfied with moments of assembly? What would a firm framework, a role and a delegation recognized that it is not withdrawn when the leaders change their minds? Even Moses, the prototype of charismatic leader, never saw the Promised Land. It was a great motivator, he knew hopes turn, could lead the Jewish people from Egypt to Palestine, but he did not enter because he died before.

The biblical story reminds us that charisma is not forever and that every situation requires different forms of leadership. What was good enough for the journey is no longer needed when the destination is reached. Who in a period of his political life was the gift it difficult to accept the loss. That is why the movements are institutionalized kill the charismatic leader, today fortunately only figuratively, to act as base their legitimacy. Those who manage to overcome the trauma is re-convert figures in warranty, he became President, dispense advice, are noble fathers. The others retreated into a silence broken by the memories of his experience, never keep with the successors. Organizations that institutionalize passing movements to political parties, because they achieve their effectiveness need structures that provide for various levels of responsibility. To this end, establish hierarchies in which democratic organizations are subject to lawful acts as the internal elections, conferences, directions, taking executive decisions as a collective expression.

It passes da forme rigide come il centralismo democratico, dove le minoranze vengono disincentivate, a forme più inclusive dove quest'ultime hanno visibilità anche esterna. In questo quadro la leadership personale ha il limite del collettivo. Qualsiasi iniziativa, presa di decisione, posizione pubblica, è prima vagliata negli organi competenti e poi comunicata all'esterno. Il leader più che capo è portavoce. Strutturazioni di questo tipo vengono spesso accusate, da parte di chi non sopporta i rituali, di uccidere la democrazia, di non rispondere in maniera rapida alla soluzione del problema.  Il sistema funziona se si dota di strutture certe che garantiscano il ricambio del personale politico, mettano limiti ai mandati, formino young people. Otherwise, the organization tends to be property of the oligarchies that will use it to ensure their own personal political survival.

is why today, especially in the left, there is strong demand for participation by militants and voters, is calling for the primaries, they require tools that go beyond the rigid tools deliberative decision. Our contemporary world does not easily accept the authority. It needs to be confirmed this constantly with acts of democratic legitimacy. Above all, required temporary positions that there are no powers to cause the dismissal. Politics individualized societies, where the bodies were dissolved intermediate, dominated by solitude, it is increasingly difficult, is the art of management complexity. Shortcuts remain the partisan personalized charismatic movements in the joints, which can respond, until we make it to the needs of civil society.

Contradicting what was said in the introduction sull'iRS must say something. That movement (party?) Was the revelation in recent years. He learned many fascinating idea Sardi independence. He gathered around him young, this is very, as new generations are less interested in politics. A movement that by its action of the heart and reason is rooted, has reached 4% of the voters at the regional level, 6% in some local situations. The mix of the beau geste and the pragmatic work has paid off. The current crisis, according to Gavino Sale, would like pimples on the face of a teenager, a growth crisis. One hopes so. At the end of the course, whatever the outcome, the IRS will be a different political formation. She will still capture and channel the expectations of some of Sardis in yet without becoming personal party or a group oligarchy? It is hoped that with the two possibilities the militants are able to build a movement or becoming a party open source preziosa per la Sardegna. Quest'ultima però è una aspettativa personale di chi scrive. Per quel che vale.
