RADIO ARC 101:“EDICOLE, “RAZZE IN ESTINZIONE” COME I BAR: SOLDI PERSI E SPERANZE DA STANFORD” by NANDO SILVESTRI SOURCE: https://radioarc.it/edicole-razze-in-estinzione-come-i-bar-soldi-persi-e-speranze-da-stanford/ Le edicole sono un altro scrigno di umanità e conoscenza per molti versi simili ai bar, almeno per quanto concerne l’infausto epilogo che riguarda molte di esse. L’odore di carta stampata, di cartoncini colorati, copertine variopinte, buste a sorpresa e cellophane, era una melassa olfattiva che un tempo inebriava grandi e piccini e rappresentava, al contempo un’ ambita meta di passeggiate e pause giornaliere. Passare per l’edicola significava attingere alla conoscenza, allo svago, alla cultura, alla fantasia e alla creatività. Tutte prerogative perse a causa dei surrogati informi e amorfi diffusi dal web. E’ questo il motivo principale della chiusura cunulata e ricorrente di moltissime edicole italiane: in economia si parla di comparto a caduta della domanda. Ma non chiude solo un’edicola, chiude un pezzo di economia locale e nazionale. Da 35000 edicole nel 2005 a circa 20000 nel 2024: -43%. Con loro se ne va un fatturato diretto di oltre 400 milioni l’anno, ma il vero buco è l’indotto che non si calcola mai. Ogni edicola media in un paese generava distribuzione per 15000€/anno di margini per distributori locali, corrieri, tipografie. Inoltre, il cliente che comprava il giornale prendeva il caffè, il biglietto del pullman, la schedina. Write on Medium Si deve pensare che senza edicola, il cinema di paese perde il suo unico punto promo fisico, senza parlare delle perdite in materia di pubblicità. Quando chiude, non perde solo l’edicolante. Perde il bar, perde l’autista, perde il tipografo. In Irpinia negli ultimi 5 anni Avellino ha perso 6 edicole, Ariano Irpino 3, Sant’Angelo dei Lombardi 2. La perdita totale in Irpinia ammonta a circa il 22% di punti vendita. Tutto ciò significa che molte delle chiusure succitate hanno sottratto ai bar irpini diverse decine di clienti danneggiando lavoratori, distributori e fornitori. Sono posti di lavoro che non fanno notizia, ma esistono. Un altro duro colpo inferto all’economia locale e nazionale in nome di un finto progresso che favorisce quasi sempre gli affari dei faccendieri e dei soliti noti. Tuttavia, ciò che accade in Puglia, a pochi chilometri dall’Irpinia, apre scenari di rinnovamento basati proprio sulla riconversione delle edicole dismesse. Si tratta di prospettive talmente uniche ed innovative da aver suscitato l’interesse di tutto il mondo, in special modo dell’Università di Stanford. Si tratta di notizie di enorme portata che pochi notiziari hanno divulgato in nome di una perenne prelazione delle tecnologie sprezzanti di buonsenso, tradizioni e arte. A San Severo (Foggia), a 40 km dall’Alta Irpinia un’edicola abbandonata da 6 anni in via Matteo Tondi è diventata il 27 marzo 2026 il Teatro-Edicola Foyer’97: 6 sedie, 4mq, idea di Francesco Gavino. Gli apprezzati spettacoli di 10/15 minuti hanno incuriosito l’università di Stanford. La sua rivista accademica Stanford Social Innovation Review (SSIR), ha scelto il Teatro Edicola di San Severo come caso di studio internazionale con il reportage “The Six-Seat Revolution”. Perché Stanford ci guarda? Perché ha capito che quei 4 mq possono tornare a generare indotto. Difatti, 60 spettatori in un pomeriggio possono diventare 60 caffè al bar vicino. Con un biglietto simbolico di 5€ si parla di micro economia culturale. Senza contare l’indotto di turisti e giornalisti che arrivano e frequentano B&B e ristoranti. È il modello che serve all’Irpinia: non lasciare il buco, ma riconvertirlo virtuosamente. Ogni edicola chiusa può diventare info-point, micro-cine, box servizi. Altrimenti continuiamo a contare solo le saracinesche abbassate, senza contare i soldi che non girano più.
In the Aragonese Pyrenees, the growing demand for housing from external buyers is driving up prices and making it difficult for local residents to access housing, who face a shortage of affordable options and a market dominated by second homes and tourist rentals. #ViviendaAragonesa #MercadoInmobiliario #SegundasResidencias (translated)
Lukáš Valášek wrote that Foreign Minister Petr Macinka rejected support for the Finnish proposal to limit the entry of hundreds of thousands of Russians into the EU. According to him, Macinka claimed that the initiative had no chance of success. Valášek added that the Czech Republic had applied a similar regime, but Russians could enter the country from neighboring states. According to Valášek, Macinka's decision went against the positions of the top leadership of the Foreign Ministry, as was evident from internal communications he had access to. Čeněk Hajný, head of the director’s office of the European Department of the Ministry, reportedly recommended joining the Finnish initiative because its content was in line with Czech positions. Valášek stated that Russians were obtaining about half a million visas to the EU each year, with the most being issued by Italy and Spain. Finnish Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen reportedly pointed out in a letter to Prague the Russian attacks on Ukraine as well as the threat of sabotage and other hybrid operations in the EU. She proposed not to issue visas for non-essential travel, including tourism. https://t.co/VYoTXSXV92 #Rusko #EU #viza (translated)

Violent protests in Milan, which led to looting and clashes with the police, resulted in the premature cancellation of tourist tours and triggered a strong response from local authorities, including a call from the Italian Prime Minister to ensure public order. #Násilí #Milán #Demonstrace (translated)
Schools, hospitals, and homes remain under attack. Russian sabotage and other hybrid operations threaten the European Union. The Kremlin assesses our determination based on our actions. Where they encounter hesitation, they push further. We must raise the price they pay for their illegal war, and part of this response must also be Europe's visa policy. Valtonen wrote to Prague, suggesting, among other things, not granting visas for non-essential trips, including tourism. #Finsko #Rusko #víza (translated)
