Reflections: culture and tourism, together
from the site of Giovanna Melandri
A deafening silence has characterized the recent election campaign, the theme of Cultural Heritage of the treasures that Italy has very little has been said.
Among the rare items to talk about it, the lover of Giovanna Melandri.
"The last five years have been really horrible pearl Italian culture," said Giovanna Melandri.
Yet, the "industry" has been shown to grow more than many others, the 900 billion lire from a guaranteed bonus game of Lotto (now diverted elsewhere) meant 17 000 units of additional work, the "thirst" art and culture in Italy, is manifested in a thousand diverse ways.
Instead, Melandri rightly notes, "In 2005, the seven regions that have them use it have only 18 percent of European funds, and of € 1.876 billion in 2001, the money not spent, that is, the unspent balances in 2005 increased to 2.523 million, a record figure, "continues the former minister.
same time, however, was born Arcus, a company commissioned by the Cultural Heritage and the Minister of Infrastructure, much more rich in funds, which duplicates the functions of the Ministry, but without being subjected to its mission and scientific tasks.
Meanwhile, the funds to run the ministries or museums, in the last three years have been more than halved.
But then, is a disaster?
"Absolutely. It is not clear that, instead, we need a strong ministry, but slim, which is able to communicate with the regions and local authorities, associations and individuals, the business community. Today should be put in motion the construction of the restorations, however, based on large programs, we need to think more art venues, museums and more. And you have to combine everything with tourism. " Melandri
This part of the proposal is the most discussed.
It 's true tourism provides approximately 1% percent of GDP and employs at least three million people, and in the field, we are losing speed compared the rest of Europe. Small businesses and hotels, tour operators' lack of competitiveness, costs, sometimes too high for the indefinite standard, including VAT saltier than in other countries, and the few private investment are among the causes of a lack of development. But the proposal to merge the cultural heritage tourism also does not satisfy everyone.
Some note that the crisis at the Ministry of Culture started when it took to care of Sports and Entertainment (cultural heritage is something overlooked: minister prefers to deal with any of the performing arts, or the problems of doping, instead of arches & columns); aggregation and Tourism, could put even more at risk the fragility of the same cultural heritage. But
are matters of detail is very strong and documented the complaint of the situation, which defines Melandri 'unbearable' very clear and organic remedies are proposed, "and very little time remains, because putting them into practice, we can avoid a real failure, "he concludes, the usually combative, the former minister.
