The Italian left wants to court intellectuals

Piero Fassino, Secretary-general of the left-wing Democrats (DS), the main group in the coalition in power, would like to see a revival of 'the Battle of Ideas' as defended by the Communist Party in its time. It is with this objective that it organised a meeting of the most pre-eminent figures of the Italian intelligentsia in Rome on June 13th. Pierluigi Battista looks back on the political engagement of intellectuals throughout history. "Seeing as the birth of the Democratic Party [the party of the alliance of left-wing] has already been very tumultuous in itself, was it really necessary to bring back the old communist rite of gathering together the Secretary-general and artists, poets, writers, political scientists and advertising agents... ? ... Relations between the Party and intellectuals were difficult at the time, sometimes conflicting, but always essential. ... We have reached an end of an era that no meeting of intellectuals and the Democratic Party will be able to resuscitate".
