ROME - In the coming weeks, the Constitutional Affairs Select Committee of Camera will try to write something for the reform of citizenship law, starting from 12 proposals submitted by different parties. Then, in November, the House of Deputies will be to establish conditions under which you can obtain the Italian citizenship. Among the proposals of the bipartisan initiative stands out 'finiano' Fabio Granata and the Catholic Pd Andrea Sarubbi. A design 'revolutionary' than the current law, the number 91 of 1992, but in line with the legislation of other EU countries. Among those opposed to the usual League, perched in defense of 91/1992. "A law on citizenship is already functioning and the Minister Maroni said Monday during the broadcast TV 'Morning cinque'-I personally believe that the law should not be changed."
The League, therefore, continues bossianamente to 'hold on'. Clear why. The Law 91/1992, as approved in the entire peninsula was under way for the festivities 500anni the discovery of America, and which reversed the previous law dating back to 1912 (the year of the colonization of Libya), has in common with the latter, the aim of protecting the roots of Italian immigrants (via ius sanguinis). Without attempting to consider the growth of foreign presence and its stabilization in the context of Italian demographic. Which is understandable in 1912 when they emigrated from Italy. Not eighty years later, with the Albanians who were pressing on the Apulian coast. By means of the Law, Italy has been able, in these 17 years, in fits and starts granting citizenship to those who have no Italian blood that flows in his veins. During this time only 261mila individuals have become 'new Italians'. In France, just to make a comparison, the French are now only 300 thousand immigrants in a two-year period (2006/2007).
If the bill passed in Parliament Granieri-Sarubbi would be 1 million 600 thousand 'new Italians' (estimate: ACLI). Unacceptable to the minds of the Po, and in the taverns Lega not incite separatism but more to the defense italianity threatened by the 'invaders'. Two points of the bill particularly unwelcome Bossi and Co. First. The introduction of jus soli, which will allow children born on Italian soil to foreign parents legally resident for at least 5 years automatically become Italian. Second. The possibility for immigrants to apply for citizenship after five years of residence and not more than ten. These will be the two nodes that illuminate the public debate. Major
agreement instead of the Italian language in the introduction of the examination as a prerequisite for citizenship. With this qualitative criterion will give a proof of the will, not only to acquire citizenship, but also to integrate in the Bel Paese. You can not be citizens if you do not participate national life and there is entrenched in their community of belonging - the Chinese community is one example, albeit a bit 'too much abused. So in saying all convinced the Italians to name but just not in fact. Fully open, however, (if the design becomes law) with those who wish, with mutual respect, realize their life plan in accordance with the principles enshrined in the Constitution.
Postscript. course, have to respect the constitution is not only migrants but also the institutions themselves. That too often trample on individual rights that they carry the migrants considered homogeneous and people in need to their culture.
