del presidente del senato
Rivolgo il mio saluto all’On. Francesco Rutelli, al Sindaco di Venezia Dott. Luigi Brugnaro, ai compenenti di
Soft Power Club e agli autorevoli relatori che interverrano ai lavori della Conferenza.
Guardo con particolare attenzione a questo forum internazionale che si pone quale luogo privilegiato
di confronto e dibattito, e quale ambito per l’elaborazione di strategie e soluzioni ai gravi problemi che
travalicano i confini nazionali.
È esperienza ormai acquisita che i fenomeni con i quali istituzioni e società si devono confrontare superano
le concrete possibilità di controllo dei singoli governi.
Penso ad esempio ai cambiamenti climatici, alla gestione dei flussi finanziari e, drammaticamente attuali,
alle pandemie.
