My Italy - Mother or stepmather? // Current

What does it mean belonging to a Nation? Is it a document that establish it? How much is important the contribution to the growth of the place where you live? In which way is Italy giving the opportunity to the new generations to grow up and to express their greatest potential?
The thoughts, the experiences, the look of a boy belonging to a new generation of Italians who doesn?t feel recognized for who he is: how can we free ourselves from a look that classifies and judges without an opening to the knowledge?

These 'nations' are what they call 'imagined communities'. Really, in everyday life, we know about three hundred people, but we have been taught to identify with millions we'll never even meet. They have a legal existence as long as we choose to obey their laws, but otherwise they are just a way of thinking about ourselves, and a way that's getting pretty tatty. The way to get free of this crap is to know that WE are the only judges who count - at least for us.
