<dc:description>This doctoral thesis aims to reconstruct the political, economic and social of the&#xd;
events linked to the Sardinian industrial planning, with specific attention to the&#xd;
mining sector, in a period of time that fits the end of World War II until the&#xd;
nineties of the twentieth century.&#xd;
The multiplicity of public and private archival sources and press gave rise to a&#xd;
complex research of different archives and libraries present time on the territory&#xd;
of Sardinia and Rome. In particular, we analyzed the cards of these archives: the&#xd;
Sardinian Regional Council Historic Archive (Cagliari), the Archive of Filcem&#xd;
(Iglesias), Historical Archive Mining Igea Spa (Iglesias), Historical Archive Eni&#xd;
(Rome-Pomezia ), Central State Archive (Rome), Historical Archive of the CISL&#xd;
Sarda (Cagliari), on the basis of the parliamentary records produced by the&#xd;
Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.&#xd;
The method of comparison among political extracting documents, economic and&#xd;
trade union allowed to have a bigger picture and capable of restoring the complex&#xd;
historical issues that have given rise to the story of mining in Sardinia in the late&#xd;
twentieth century. My research, through an analysis of the bibliographic and&#xd;
archival materials, has focused on industrial policy, due to the experience of the&#xd;
"Revival Plan" and the subsequent intervention of the national and regional level&#xd;
public sector in favor of the Sardinian mining.&#xd;
The first chapter of the thesis provides an overview of the role played by the&#xd;
mining policies provided by Revival Plan in the processes of development after&#xd;
World War II up to the dynamic processes that led to the advent of the initiative&#xd;
public during the period between the late sixties and early seventies. The history&#xd;
of the Sardinian economic development and policies aimed at relaunching the&#xd;
mining sector, as is clear from the analysis of archival documents and works of&#xd;
contemporary historiography, is fully part of economic planning in the actions&#xd;
taken by the central and regional institutions to allow the re-launch economically&#xd;
depressed structures in the South. The issues socio-economic backwardness of the&#xd;
island and the stagnation of regional industrial structures, as in the case of the&#xd;
mining sector, had raised public awareness on the problems of the island's&#xd;
economic structure, highlighting the need for economic planning that basasse on&#xd;
the industrial development of the territory.&#xd;
Faced with this scenario, the political and trade union circles islanders after World&#xd;
War II supported a platform of demands for "economic and social revival of&#xd;
Sardinia" that, based on the treatises of Article 13 of the special statute of Sardinia&#xd;
(26 February 1948), It was to contribute to the development of economic&#xd;
structures of Sardinia across the planner action of central and regional institutions.&#xd;
The reports provided by the trade unions and the documentation kept at the&#xd;
Historical Archives of the Regional Council of the rest to highlight ways in the&#xd;
mining sector vigesse a very precarious socio-economic situation, which could&#xd;
conflict with the preparation of a program of development based on the&#xd;
intervention of the initiative public.&#xd;
Within this scenario, the action of the Sardinian politicians and trade unions, in&#xd;
the second half of the forties and until the approval of Law No. 588, contributed&#xd;
to the involvement of mining activities in the area planning phases of the Plan&#xd;
rebirth, since in their view represented the premise for achieving socio-economic&#xd;
development under Article 13, and the subsequent Sardinian mining industry&#xd;
growth in the economic scenario of the national / local level.&#xd;
The timing and modalities of implementation of the Revival Plan, nevertheless,&#xd;
negatively engraved on expectations of mining areas fulfilling commitments&#xd;
under Article 13 of the Special Statute. An analysis of labor relations and in the&#xd;
acts of the Regional Council of Sardinia emerges as trade unions and political&#xd;
leaders of the opposition parties stigmatizzassero delays of regional and national&#xd;
institutions, which in their judgment penalizing the industrial policies designed to&#xd;
raise industry regional mining.&#xd;
The sixties, though they were marked by the approval of Law No. 588 and the&#xd;
preparation of a series of measures for the expansion and the consequent&#xd;
restructuring of the sector Metal (as in the case of the regional decision of March&#xd;
1968 which established the Ente mining Sardo), were instead characterized by a&#xd;
deepening crisis of the mining areas and the failure of the objectives of the&#xd;
"Revival Plan" ,. Despite the establishment of development programs for metallic&#xd;
mineral products, the analysis of the bibliographic and archival complex revealed&#xd;
that the absence of an adequate industrial policy by national Governments and&#xd;
Regional had penalized the nature objectives socio- provided for by the economic&#xd;
Revival Plan and aggravated the precarious conditions of the mining sector, which&#xd;
at the end of the sixties will be marked by a progressive advertising.&#xd;
In this regard, the contributions produced by contemporary historiography and&#xd;
archival sources made it possible to provide an overview on the guidelines of&#xd;
mining policies in the season of the "Revival Plan" and placed in evidence the&#xd;
limits of economic planning pursued in the course of the sixties and the criticality&#xd;
of the relationship between national and regional bodies. The system of relations&#xd;
between the State and the Region, in this scenario, will be a key element in the&#xd;
interventions in support of the mining industry, whose consequences (political,&#xd;
economic and social) they recorded substantially in the economic dynamics of the seventies.In the second chapter, after providing an in-depth analysis on the mining policies&#xd;
of the local area / national aftermath of the publicity of the mining sector, I tried&#xd;
to reconstruct the process that would have marked the phases of the public&#xd;
initiative, pausing on policies industrial assumed by national and regional&#xd;
institutions during the seventies. During the conference of Grosseto (1970),&#xd;
Florence (1972) and Cagliari, political and trade union circles of national and&#xd;
regional level had argued that the public sector action could represent a growth&#xd;
factor for the development of the mining sector of the island.&#xd;
Industrial processes put in place by EMSA dall'Egam and constituted in this&#xd;
regard an important milestone for the relaunch of the mining industry and&#xd;
occupational island, even though the policy measures of the national / regional&#xd;
level could not provide solutions to the crisis mining industry.&#xd;
Regional and state authorities, as the analysis of archival documents and literature&#xd;
produced during the decade between the end of the seventies and the eighties, did&#xd;
not intervene in a unified manner, a circumstance that caused numerous conflicts&#xd;
of competence which caused a expenditure of financial resources and that there&#xd;
was a reorganization of the productive activity and a resolution of social and&#xd;
business problems.&#xd;
The industrial policy decisions taken at the end of the seventies, in relation to the&#xd;
acts produced by the Regional Council and the trade unions belonging to the&#xd;
CGIL and CISL, were marked by the rescue and by the advance of the mining&#xd;
activities of the Eni group, which in fact accentuated the dependence of the&#xd;
regional industrial system from the system of State holdings,&#xd;
Following the approval of Law 279/1978, Eni took over the liquidator Committee&#xd;
of Ex Egam society and strove to the restructuring of the mining sector, with the&#xd;
establishment of the Equity Mining and Metallurgical Company (Samim), where&#xd;
the confluence of part of Mining companies belonging to the Ente Sardo&#xd;
(PiomboZincifera Sarda) and all'Egam (Ammi Sarda and Sogersa). The late&#xd;
seventies and early Eighties marked a stage where the doubts and uncertainties&#xd;
continued to demand payment in the sector Metal Sulcis-Iglesias and the&#xd;
consequent challenge to the system of companies with public participation, taking&#xd;
a function of rescue of marginal businesses and financially distressed.&#xd;
In the third and final chapter I finally analyzed the public final stages of the&#xd;
intervention of State Holdings through the Eni group initiative until disposal of&#xd;
the mining sector and the consequent industrial conversion of mining areas.&#xd;
Through the study of the testimonies contained in the local newspapers and the&#xd;
memories of the major trade union leaders of the period, I was able to rebuild the&#xd;
profile of the mining disputes within the mining companies and Samim and Sim&#xd;
up to the progressive abandonment of the metalliferous resources from public groups they had to provide for the restructuring of the metal mines of Sulcis-&#xd;
Iglesiente and Guspini.&#xd;
Examination of Historical Archive documentation of the CISL Sarda and Central&#xd;
State Archives and newspaper it was possible to detect a new heightened interest&#xd;
of national, regional and trade unions on the problems of the mining area, aimed&#xd;
at a revival of the mining sector local through the allocation of substantial funding&#xd;
and the provision of a series of legislative measures, such as the national mining&#xd;
law 752/1982, aimed at the exploitation of mineral resources in respect of the&#xd;
supply of domestic raw materials. Within this context, the restructuring of the&#xd;
mining sector and the consequent downsizing of the workforce employed in the&#xd;
Sulcis, following the industrial policies adopted by Eni, caused the resumption of&#xd;
the platform of demands on the political and regional trade union front, with the&#xd;
aim of respond to the dismantling of the mining and non-compliance of the&#xd;
national government and the State holdings. Within this dramatic scenario, the&#xd;
financial situation of the Samim brought to light the public failure of the initiative&#xd;
in the development policies of the Metal area of Sulcis-Iglesiente.&#xd;
Facing the collapse of the mining sector they isolate the provident Eni Group&#xd;
demerged Samim in 1986, dividing it into two parts and forming the Italian Mines&#xd;
Company (Sim) for the mining sector and New Samim for the metallurgical&#xd;
industry, with the aim to separate the "losing" sectors from the sectors in which&#xd;
Eni active prospects could return from an industrial point of view.&#xd;
Despite measures taken by Eni, the state and regional intervention experience in&#xd;
the mining sector had its epilogue in the nineties, when it began the gradual&#xd;
disposal of mining and started the process of environmental rehabilitation of&#xd;
mining areas characterized from disused mining activities or undergoing&#xd;
decommissioning. In the second half of the nineties ended the programmatic&#xd;
experience Mining Ente Sardo, a factor that gave way to the launching of regional&#xd;
and national legislative measures aimed at revitalizing, remediation, and historical&#xd;
and cultural development of the regional mining heritage by Igea Company SpA and of the Geo-mining Park.</dc:description>
