The Movement of National Responsibility (Movimento di Responsabilità Nazionale, MRN) was a small centrist parliamentary political party in Italy led by Domenico Scilipoti.
The party was founded on 9 December 2010 by three deputies coming from centre-left parties and headed to support the centre-right government led by Silvio Berlusconi: Massimo Calearo (ex- PD and ex- ApI), Bruno Cesario (ex-PD and ex-ApI) and Domenico Scilipoti (ex- IdV). [1] On 14 December the three deputies voted in favour of Berlusconi in a close vote of confidence. [2] In October 2011 the party had its first congress: Scilipoti was confirmed secretary and Cesario president. [3]
On 20 January 2011 the MRN was a founding component of Responsible Initiative, a centre-right group in the Italian Chamber of Deputies. [4] [5]
In October 2012, the balance of accounts of the People of Freedom showed that the Movement of National Responsibility had received €49,000 of financial support from PdL for posters advertising the MRN's founding congress. [6]
In 2013 the party joined Forza Italia.
Scilipotism is a neologism that appeared in the spoken language in December 2010, after Domenico Scilipoti, elected in an opposition party ( Italia dei Valori) left the party and started supporting the Berlusconi Government coalition. [7] The neologism seems to describe such a sudden transformation of political ideas and, particularly, of Parliament position (in Italy known as il salto della quaglia – the jump of the quail) [8] for uncertain personal reasons but, certainly, for the advantage of the new political side. A group of "scilipotists" made the Berlusconi Government surviving for about one more year.
As per the International Business Times, '"Everybody says that I am crazy, but I don't care. They said the same to Ezra Pound," said Scilipoti during the seminar. Pound was confined to a U.S. mental hospital after the war.' [9]
