“I was a researcher of philosophy in France, Italy only wants me as a janitor”

Dear Republic,

I saw that you published ainvestigation on teachers. I feel the need to briefly tell you about my experience. My name is Giovanni Desideri, I am 47 years old, I live in San Benedetto del Tronto. I graduated in Philosophy, but I am not the only one to blame for this. Even more serious, I obtained a post-graduate diploma in 2002 at the prestigious Ehess in Paris. At the time this diploma was a start to research, or a year at the end of which in France they awarded doctoral scholarships to the most deserving (and indeed, so much so that an Italian had one, not having as it is understood a baron to support).

In 2017, I submitted an alternate application for History and Philosophy, declaring the French title and a master’s degree in “Institutional Communication” obtained instead in Tor Vergata in 2008. I was convinced that these two titles would be evaluated.

Only a few months ago, however, I discovered that 0 points had been assigned to the French title, and 1 to the master instead of the 3 foreseen by the ministerial table. For the foreign title, the gates of hell have opened wide: according to the law (and the absurdity of Italian laws is a big problem) I had to be, in 2017, to present a declaration of equivalence of the French title, issued by. .. from Miur! That is, one submits a substitute application in a high school, which is part of the peripheral administration of the MIUR. It would be their job to deal with schools and educational qualifications. They could have a table with the educational qualifications of the EU countries. Instead, nothing. It had to be me.

Well, I arm myself with patience, candidly convinced of being able to rectify the score, and I write to the Miur, where he trains certain types of officials whose existence I did not suspect. After several requests, I am issued a declaration of equivalence full of errors: title obtained in Finland (rather than in France) and so on. Regardless of the mistake, the high school does not correct the score, and the regional school office gives it reason (the absurdity of the laws); but he advises, on January 27th, to review the assessment of the Italian master. This evaluation never came.

Moral: in 2017 I was denied 5 points in the ranking. Since then I have received several calls to do the janitor. And who would have been behind me if I had been awarded the 5 points made various substitutes for History and Philosophy.

Italy is a great cloaca. Let us stop complaining about the austerity that would prevent us from flying. We ourselves chain ourselves to the ground with third world laws and bureaucrats.

Excuse me if I have not kept my promise to be short (and in any case now I have to ask twice for the equivalence of the French title that I am guilty of having achieved: for the ordinary competition, and for the imminent reopening of the third band. The law says that for every single procedure you have to request again. How many you are, what you bring, a florin. And the officials are always those of the first time. “
