Πολιτικό κόμμα Αδελφοί της Ιταλίας

The Brothers of Italy (Fratelli d'Italia, FdI) is a political party in Italy that has its roots in the post-World War II Italian right, tracing its lineage back to the Italian Social Movement (Movimento Sociale Italiano, MSI), which was founded by supporters…   of the former fascist regime. Over the decades, the party has evolved, distancing itself from its original post-fascist identity and moving towards a more mainstream conservative position, while still maintaining a strong sense of national identity and sovereignty.<br /><br />The party's values and political platform are centered around a strong commitment to Italian nationalism, which includes a focus on preserving Italy's cultural heritage, language, and traditions. The Brothers of Italy advocates for strict immigration controls, arguing that this is necessary to protect Italian jobs and maintain national security. They are also proponents of law and order, often emphasizing the need for tougher policies on crime and illegal immigration.<br /><br />Economically, the Brothers of Italy supports policies that are aimed at promoting Italian businesses and protecting workers, while also being critical of excessive bureaucracy and taxation that they argue stifles economic growth. The party is skeptical of the European Union's influence over national policies, particularly in areas such as immigration, economic policy, and sovereignty. While not outright Eurosceptic, the Brothers of Italy advocates for a reevaluation of Italy's relationship with the EU, pushing for reforms that would return more powers to the national government.<br /><br />Socially, the party tends to hold conservative views, including traditional family values and skepticism towards policies that promote multiculturalism. The Brothers of Italy also places a significant emphasis on education, particularly in promoting the teaching of Italian history and culture as a means of fostering national identity among young people.<br /><br />Under the leadership of Giorgia Meloni, who became the party's president in 2014, the Brothers of Italy has seen a significant increase in its popularity and political influence. Meloni's leadership has been characterized by a dynamic and charismatic approach, which has helped to modernize the party's image and broaden its appeal among voters. Despite its growth and evolution, the party continues to face criticism from some quarters for its historical links to Italy's fascist past, though it has made efforts to distance itself from these associations and present itself as a modern conservative force in Italian politics.Διαβάστε περισσότερα
