Area of the Agora in Athens

Before the elections every party and grouping of parties publishes their proposals for the citizens, their potential electors. My party, Italia dei Valori, has expressed its programme in 7 main points.

In meetings and on this Blog where I'm using daily articles I'm trying to discuss the details of the different aspects of the programme, to give them a more concrete form and to explain them.
However facts must follow programmes and citizens need to be able to judge their elected representatives for the coherence that they show in respect to the declarations they make.
Many electoral promises that different party representatives are making currently are transforming their programmes into books of unrealisable dreams and they are changing the politicians into showman at a country fair.
In the period after the elections I’ve thus decided to provide detailed evidence on this Blog about the activity of Italia dei Valori for each point of the programme.
I’ll do this so that each citizen can consider, comment and criticise as well as make helpful suggestions. This activity of providing information and engagement will last for the whole period of the legislature. It’s a way of giving transparency that is a duty to the electorate.
It’s necessary to be accountable to the electorate on the basis of solid information and facts during the life of a legislature and not only at the end. Democracy is based on true information, on true engagement. Today this is almost totally absent from our country.
This initiative is a starting point.
