You can never really get tired of Italian politics. Over the last 30 years, we have seen many turning points, the most memorable of which was undoubtedly Silvio Berlusconi's unexpected ‘descent into the field’ in 1994. Nor have we been deprived of colourful characters, such as Matteo Renzi or Matteo Salvini, who, as their careers took off, ended up burning their wings. And after many unsuccessful attempts, imagination has finally come to power (as they used to say in the 1960s), although the 1968 generation has nothing to do with it. Indeed, all the credit goes to the Movimento 5 Stelle (M5S), whose activists were seen carrying their leader Beppe Grillo – sitting in a dinghy – through the streets of Bologna during a procession of sorts. The general elections of 25 September 2022 added an important chapter to recent Italian political history, which has sometimes taken on a dramatic tone but more often that of a comedy or even a farce. All in all, nothing out of the ordinary; in the society of the spectacle, this is how the Darwinian struggle for political survival can also be played out.

心怀不满、右翼、冲突的意大利：2022 年 9 月 25 日的大选


你永远不会真正厌倦意大利政治。在过去的 30 年里，我们看到了许多转折点，其中最令人难忘的无疑是 1994 年西尔维奥·贝卢斯科尼 （Silvio Berlusconi） 出人意料地“进入该领域”。我们也没有被剥夺了丰富多彩的人物，比如马泰奥·伦齐（Matteo Renzi）或马泰奥·萨尔维尼（Matteo Salvini），随着他们的事业腾飞，他们最终烧掉了自己的翅膀。经过多次失败的尝试，想象力终于掌权（正如他们在 1960 年代常说的那样），尽管 1968 一代与它无关。事实上，所有的功劳都归功于 Movimento 5 Stelle （M5S），人们看到该组织的活动人士在游行中载着他们的领导人 Beppe Grillo——坐在小艇里——穿过博洛尼亚的街道。2022 年 9 月 25 日的大选为意大利近代政治史增添了重要的篇章，它有时带有戏剧性的色彩，但更多时候是喜剧甚至闹剧。总而言之，没有什么不寻常的;在景观社会中，达尔文为政治生存而进行的斗争也是这样进行的。
