It all started with the global crisis of 2008 and with the desire of some friends to create a private pole Ticino it was able to promote a New Welfare.
The result is a spontaneous, non-sectarian and non-partisan, charged with studying and proposing the idea of scientific, cultural, social and academic at last to give a positive stimulus and proactive civil society and the institutions of our region. They were part of this primitive group of friends "visionaries", together with myself, the following friends and colleagues that I will never cease to thank for their valuable contribution to (and from academia, business, medical, social)
The study took the project to develop a cultural association of the statutes of higher education, voluntary and public interest, that after the initial tentennamente intitolammo Free University of Human Sciences and Neuroscience (LiUM University) .
We threw ourselves heart and soul in this first step of our project and socio-cultural - in the noblest of the term - political as well as intellectual project, historical, anthropological and scientific in the sense interdisciplinary, cross-society, shared, participated and dialectic of the term. Project - obviously - did not want to limit ourselves to this important first goal, however, then only the beginning.
Therefore, we formed the LIUM University , with a lot of enthusiasm and very few resources, a pioneering project that - at first - was not well seen by the official academic institutions operating in the area. This was, however, passed without difficulty after a period of distrust, however understandable, thanks to the foresight, intelligence and competence of decision makers and their staff and faculty. There remained, however, still harassing and hostile attitude of some members of the professional healthcare media and some political leanings, and that, over the years, however, has waned but never completely disappear, despite all our efforts to dispel all forms and sufficiency of diffdenza against us. Meanwhile, the global crisis was raging and, in this situation is certainly not easy for us, we decided to be - next to the LiUM - the Quovadis Editions of Bellinzona.
With our publishing house Quovadis so we published our first book titled THE POET AND THE ANALYST, Leoni and co-authors Silvio Orlando Del Don, with a preface by Sidney Rotalinti. Then came ATRE publications. In chronological order: THE SNACK OF HITLER, Annalina Molteni, L 'DAYS OF STEEL, Gianluigi Marini and co-authors are wasting Rosario (aka Ross) THE SURRENDER OF ACCOUNTS, Hans Tami. Other works are in preparation and in the meantime, in particular, two papers in the field of psychodynamic and psychoanalytic and two works of fiction that our students of the School of Creative Writing Three Castles of Bellinzona produced at the end of their training
Almost simultaneously came the subject of heavy and repeated attacks, innuendo, slander and a whole series of actions aimed at discrediting my person, my ideas and my actions. Especially in the press, but not only. I do not want for the moment, and here, painful as drawing up a list of the names of miserable individuals who have competed in a vain attempt to undermine my credibility, professionalism, and the construction of these my initiatives and projects. Just remember - for now - that among these "distinguished" and "brave" I have enemies and slanderers include: Ticino some doctors, including psychiatrists and other colleagues active in the DSB, some senior officials of the DSS and among them also a few good name of the then Office of the Medical Canton, some former colleagues and collaborators who had helped him in his time professionally and personally, senior officials and councilors of the then wretched congregation that was planning the Cantonal Hospital, but not limited ! I would also add some nice behalf of the Office of the Insurance Invalidity of the Canton of Ticino and its Medical Assessment Service, but some former prosecutors and public - not to be unjust - add some senior executives SUPSI, and some municipal officials and the City of Bellinzona . I nearly forgot a few journalists and leaders of the Ticino region of our CSR. Tralascerei at this point of going into pitiful and embarrassing lists many distinguished anonymous, as well as edifying examples of honest faithful friends and relatives! I apologize if I forgot to remind someone else of these deserving, brave and influential personalities. I do not have to hurt, we think justice, history, their conscience and their descendants.
Paradoxically, however, all this bitterness and these poisons in our and above me did nothing but raise the curiosity and interest about our initiatives, slowly, and is structured with organized themselves through their commitment, seriousness, dedication and desire for knowledge and solidarity that animated all our activities. In particular, emerged with even more force on the social spirit of all our members, employees, volunteers, friends and supporters, who found their common denominator in the earnest hope and desire to help others and our society to emerge from its isolation and the shoals of provincialism, of self and lack of innovative spirit, entrepreneurial, creative and proactive.
So the basic principle was forming that would accompany us in the years to come: A NEW WELFARE in the context of a real association of Public Utilities, which was not afraid to publicly and clearly looming for its proposals and innovative ideas, unusual, unpopular by those who had and has no interest nor and / or courage to move in this direction. For in the meantime the social, economic, political, cultural and existential andaveno worsening of our region, thus confirming the world even more the need for a real paradigm shift and the fundamental choices that must operate to meet the new challenges for the future of our country, our society and all of us but especially for our children and grandchildren. Intensificammo so our efforts, conscious of our role and our responsibilities in this regard.
Despite the actions we say "disturbing" and actual attacks on our initiatives by several snipers, journalists, public officials, associations of "interest", a work in progress continued to flourish. Again, our efforts were all inspired by the good and the interest pubblco and supported mostly by volunteers. It created so verse works projects and non-profit organization that took the form of LiUM University of Quovadis Editions, Internazione the Centre for Development of Human Sciences (Swiss-CISU), etc.. Gradually they began to work together for an integrated network that would put these activities in favor of a New Welfare and as such could become a partner influential in social and cultural policy of the Authority. This project is one that in the year 2011 we set ourselves the objective and mission and with a maximum limit in 2012 for its implementation on the ground.
This was providential because the economic situation and international politics - as opposed to the false and hypocritical assurances that came from many sides - the meantime nal began to crumble. Our task and our activities were then becoming increasingly urgent and necessary. The serious eye disease that struck in the meantime, Dr. Orlando Del Don did not stop the work begun in the meantime to continue to further develop, with the help of all employees who meanwhile were prepared as needed and were integrated and replaced when necessary.
