“I read Professor Amadori’s book, there is absolutely no sentence against women in general, there is no sentence in which abusive attitudes towards women are justified or legitimized. We speak, according to his thesis, of a very conflictual relationship between men and women in which machismo, even patriarchy, is harshly stigmatized “and” highlights how in some cases there are prevaricating attitudes on the part of the female gender. There is no discriminatory attitude on its pages. He has his thesis, I could have others.” This was the speech of the Minister of Education and Merit, Giuseppe Valditara, when presenting the ‘Educate for relationships’ project for schools at a press conference at Palazzo Madama, regarding the controversy over the ministry’s consultant, Alessandro Amadori, accused of having written a book in which he reduced the severity of the phenomenon of gender violence. “This project has a very plural participation, outlined by the structures of the ministry, in which I put my face. This It’s my project and I want to be judged by that, not by controversies that I consider instrumental and completely demagogic”, added government minister Meloni.
