I riflessi della concezione ordinovista del potere sociale dal basso nel modello di democrazia economica-sociale recepito dalla costituzione italiana

DI GAETANO BUCCI

ABSTRACT – The present paper seeks to highlight the national and international

reasons that led to the split of the Italian Communist Party from the

Italian Socialist Party, and analyzes the characteristics of the aforementioned

split and its historical presuppositions. After this, an attempt is made

to underline the impact of the communist political conception of the ‘New

Order’, as “social power from below”, on the work of the Italian Constituent

Assembly and on the regulatory framework of the Italian Constitution

of 1948. Furthermore, the dynamics of economic democracy and social

policy, following the entry into force of the Italian Constitution, are reconstructed

in the various and alternating phases. Finally, the possibility

of a resumption of the ‘New Order’ political-constitutional vision and its

cultural matrices is argued in order to get out of the contemporary global

crisis, in the search of an alternative to the neoliberal model.

KEYWORDS – Italian Constitution, Economic Democracy, Italian Communist
