Federation of the Greens
Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox political party
The Federation of the Greens (Template:Langx, FdV), frequently referred to as Greens (Verdi), was a green<ref name="Nordsieck"/> political party in Italy. It was formed in 1990 by the merger of the Federation of Green Lists and the Rainbow Greens.<ref name="Biorcio">Template:Cite book</ref>
The FdV was part of the European Green Party and the Global Greens. In July 2021 it was merged into Green Europe.
History
Background and foundation
The Federation of Green Lists was formed in 1984 by leading environmentalists and anti-nuclear activists, notably including Gianni Mattioli, Gianfranco Amendola, Massimo Scalia and Alexander Langer.
The party made its debut at the 1987 general election and obtained 2.6% of the vote, gaining 13 seats in the Chamber of Deputies and two senators.<ref name="SchreursPapadakis">Template:Cite book</ref> Later that year, the Greens successfully campaigned for three referendums aimed at stopping nuclear power in Italy, which had been proposed by the left-liberal Radical Party and was eventually supported by the country's three main parties (Christian Democrats, Communists and Socialists).
At the 1989 European Parliament election there were two competing green parties: the LV and the Rainbow Greens (VA), formed mainly by Radicals, including Adelaide Aglietta, Franco Corleone, Adele Faccio, Marco Taradash and Francesco Rutelli, as well as splinters from Proletarian Democracy, including Mario Capanna, Guido Pollice, Gianni Tamino and Edo Ronchi. The two lists obtained a combined 6.2% of the vote, of which 3.8% for the LV and 2.4% for the VA, and 5 MEPs.
In 1990 the two parties joined forces to form the Federation of the Greens, which inherited from the LV the Smiling Sun symbol of the northern European anti-nuclear movement, designed by Danish activist Anne Lund in 1975. In the 1992 general election the new party won 2.8% of the vote, returning 16 deputies and 4 senators.<ref name="SchreursPapadakis"/> The party was briefly a member of the Ciampi Cabinet formed 28 April 1993, its sole minister resigning a day after the cabinet's swearing-in ceremony.
Centre-left coalitions
In 1993 the Greens joined forces with the Democratic Party of the Left (PDS) within the Alliance of Progressives, a broad left-wing coalition. As a result, Rutelli was elected mayor of Rome.<ref name="Biorcio"/><ref name="SchreursPapadakis"/> The party was also joined by Carlo Ripa di Meana, a former Socialist member of the European Commission and minister of the Environment, who became the party's leader.
In the 1994 European Parliament election won 3.2% of the vote and three MEPs, its best result as a joint party.<ref name="SchreursPapadakis"/>
In 1995 the Greens were a founding member of The Olive Tree coalition and in the 1996 general election,<ref name="Biorcio"/> thanks to this alliance and several candidates in single-seat constituencies, they obtained 14 deputies and 14 senators, their highest number ever. Following the election, the Greens the centre-left governments led by Romano Prodi, Massimo D'Alema and Giuliano Amato. Ronchi was minister of the Environment (1996–2000) and Alfonso Pecoraro Scanio minister of Agriculture (2000–2001).
Since 1996 the party however started a slow decline. Some of its leading members left: Rutelli (who was re-elected mayor of Rome) in 1997 and Ripa di Meana in 1998.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> The party also suffered the competition of several centre-left parties, some of them new as The Democrats, of which Rutelli was a founding member. In the 1999 European Parliament election the Greens were reduced to 1.8% and two MEPs, prompting the resignation of Luigi Manconi, who had led the party since 1996.<ref name="Biorcio"/> The party was thus re-organised under Grazia Francescato, a former president of the Italy's section of the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF).<ref name="Biorcio"/>
At the 2001 general election the Greens formed a joint list with the Italian Democratic Socialists (SDI): The Sunflower. The combination scored 2.2%, thus failing to surpass the 4% threshold.<ref name="SchreursPapadakis"/> The Greens elected seven deputies and ten senators in single-member constituencies, as part of The Olive Tree coalition.
Shift to the far left
After the alliance with the SDI, a relatively centrist party, the Greens shifted far to the left, prompting the exit of leading members as Ronchi, Mattioli, Scalia, Corleone and Manconi. The Greens were since part of the so-called "radical left", along with the Communist Refoundation Party (PRC) and the Party of Italian Communists (PdCI).
At the 2004 European Parliament election the Greens obtained 2.5% of the vote and two MEPs.<ref name="SchreursPapadakis"/>
In February 2005 the Greens joined The Union, the new successor alliance to The Olive Tree, with party secretary Alfonso Pecoraro Scanio receiving 2.2% of the vote in the open primary election for the coalition's leader.<ref name="Biorcio"/> At the 2006 general election the party was part of the winning coalition The Union, and scored 2.1%, obtained 15 seats in the Chamber of Deputies. The Together with the Union list, an alliance of Greens, Communists and Consumers polled 4.2% in the election for the Senate, electing 11 senators, 5 of whom were Greens.<ref name="SchreursPapadakis"/> In 2006–2008 Pecoraro Scanio served as minister of the Environment, while Paolo Cento, national coordinator of the party and leader of the no global faction, was undersecretary of Economy and Finances.
In November 2006 Pecoraro Scanio's political line was confirmed in a party congress, but the Greens also tried to re-open the doors to all former members. The attempt of re-uniting the Italian Greens failed as soon as in January 2007, when Mattioli, Scalia and Corleone finally left the party again, citing that it was drifting too much the far left, and announced their intention to participate to the foundation of the Democratic Party (PD). Within the PD, they joined the Democratic Ecologists' faction, which already included several former Greens (Manconi, Ronchi, Lino De Benetti, Stefano Semenzato, Ermete Realacci, Gianni Vernetti, Franco Piro, Francesco Ferrante, Carla Rocchi, etc.). As a result, Legambiente, the largest environmentalist association of Italy, showed more support for the PD than the Greens themselves.
Out of Parliament
In the run-up of the 2008 general election, the Greens participated in the foundation of The Left – The Rainbow electoral list with the PRC, the PdCI and Democratic Left (SD). The coalition obtained just 3.1% of the vote and the Greens lost their parliamentary representation.
In the summer of 2008 Grazia Francescato, who had been leader before, represented the party's establishment and in the event was supported by Cento's left-wing, was elected at the helm of the party, by defeating two modernizers, Marco Boato and Fabio Roggiolani.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
For the 2009 election the Greens formed a joint list with the Movement for the Left (MpS) – a moderate split from the PRC –, the Socialist Party (PS) – successor of the SDI –, SD and Unite the Left (UlS): Left and Freedom (SL).<ref>[1] Template:Webarchive</ref> The list received just 3.1% of the vote and failed to return any MEPs. After the election, it was decided to transform SL into a permanent federation, that would eventually evolve into the joint party named Left Ecology Freedom (SEL), and Francescato wanted the Greens to join it.
However, during a party congress in October 2009 the party rejected the proposal by narrowly electing Angelo Bonelli, candidate of the liberal faction led by Boato, instead of Francescato's candidate, Loredana De Petris.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>[2] Template:Webarchive</ref> After his election, which marked the end of the dominance of the internal left wing over the party, Bonelli announced that the party will pursue an independent course from SL, and will try to coalesce a new "ecologist constituent assembly" on the model of the French Europe Écologie.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Francescato, De Petris and Cento continued to support SL as the Ecologists Association and would eventually leave the Greens.<ref>Green economy Template:Webarchive La Nuova Ecologia</ref>
New coalitions
In September 2010 the Greens launched an Ecologist Constituent Assembly. In Bonelli's view the new political force would take inspiration both from the French Verts and the German Grünen and would be open to the contribution of movements and associations, notably including Beppe Grillo's Five Star Movement (M5S).<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Other than the Greens, participants of the new political force included, among others, Massimo Scalia (a former leading Green), Bruno Mellano (president of the Italian Radicals), movie maker Mario Monicelli, writer Dacia Maraini, geologist Mario Tozzi and comedian Giobbe Covatta.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> As a result, in November 2011 the Ecologists and Civic Networks (Ecologisti e Reti Civiche, ERC) coalition was officially launched,<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> but it would be just a short-lived experiment.
In 2012 Bonelli stood as candidate for mayor of Taranto, garnering 11.9% of the vote.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
In the 2013 general election the Greens were part of the Civil Revolution coalition, which obtained a mere 2.2% of the vote and no seats.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> In May the ERC was disbanded and in November, during a party congress, Luana Zanella was elected to serve as co-spokesperson along with Bonelli.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
The Greens contested the 2014 European Parliament election with Green Italia (GI), a green party established in 2013 and led by Monica Frassoni and Fabio Granata, within the joint list European Greens – Green Italia.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> The electoral list received 0.9% of the vote and did not return any MEPs.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
In January 2015 senator Bartolomeo Pepe, a former member of the M5S, joined the party,<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> giving it parliamentary representation after seven years. In June another former senator of the M5S, Paola De Pin, joined the Greens<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> and sat with senator Pepe within the Great Autonomies and Freedom group.<ref name="Senato">Template:Cite web</ref> Both Pepe and De Pin would soon leave the party. Another former M5S senator, Cristina De Pietro, would join the Greens in November 2016<ref name="Senato"/> and leave next year.<ref>telenord.it/2017/10/18/lex-grillina-de-pietro-abbandona-i-verdi-il-sole-non-ride-piu</ref>
In November 2015, during a party congress, Covatta was elected spokesperson, succeeding to Bonelli and Zanella.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> However, Covatta's role was soon transformed into that of a testimonial. In February 2017 the party appointed Bonelli and Fiorella Zabatta to serve as day-to-day coordinators and Zanella as international secretary.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Later that year, the coordinators were three: Bonelli, Zanella and, representing the party's minority, Gianluca Carrabs.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
Return to the centre-left
In December 2017, in an internal referendum, 73% of Green members voted in favour of their party's return to the moderate centre-left coalition led by the PD.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> Consequently, the Greens formed, along with the Italian Socialist Party and Civic Area, the Together electoral list for the 2018 general election.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> When the results came in, the list had obtained a mere 0.6% of the vote and no seats; additionally, no Green was elected in single-seat constituencies. After the election, Bonelli resigned from the executive and the remaining two coordinators, Zanella and Carrabs, led the transition.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
In December 2018, during a party congress, Matteo Badiali and Elena Grandi, supported by Bonelli and Zanella, were elected co-spokespersons of the party.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
In the run-up to the 2019 European Parliament election the party formed Green Europe (EV), a joint electoral list with Italy in Common (IiC) and GI.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> The alliance was reinforced by Marco Affronte, who had been elected with the M5S in 2014 and had joined as an independent the Greens–European Free Alliance group and the European Green Party, and eventually announced on Facebook that he had joined the FdV.<ref>Template:Cite webTemplate:Cbignore</ref> However, IiC soon left the Greens in order to form an alternative alliance with More Europe, a liberal party.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref> The list received 2.3% of the vote, quite an improvement from 2014, but still not enough to exceed the 4% threshold.
In the 2020 Italian regional elections a re-edition of Green Europe won seats in Emilia-Romagna, Veneto, Marche and Campania. Together with the seat won in Trentino in 2018, the Greens had a total of 5 seats in Regional Councils, their best result in terms of representation in a decade.
In March 2021 Rossella Muroni (GI) left the Free and Equal group in order to establish, along with Lorenzo Fioramonti (GI, former M5S), Alessandro Fusacchia (Italian Radicals, former +E), Andrea Cecconi (ex-M5S) and Antonio Lombardo (ex-M5S), a sub-group of the FdV within the Mixed Group instead.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref><ref>Template:Cite web </ref><ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
In July 2021 the FdV was merged into EV.<ref>Template:Cite web</ref>
Popular support
In their history the Greens were never able to reach the electoral success of many green parties all around Europe. They had a stable share of vote around 2% and experienced a slight decline in the 2010s. Their characterization as party of the far left did not help them in northern Italy,Template:Citation needed where they had their best results at the beginning (for instance 7.1% in the 1990 Venetian regional election).
The Greens were stronger in cities and urban areas (Milan, Venice, Rome, Naples, etc.), in northern mountain regions, such as Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol (especially in South Tyrol, where they were organised in the local Greens, a broader left-wing party) and Aosta Valley (where the local section, the Alternative Greens, were merged into Autonomy Liberty Participation Ecology in 2010), and in some southern regions, such as Basilicata and Campania.
