Conventions

By statute IdV must periodically celebrate a national congress. Congresses usually take place every other year, according to the art. 8 of the party's statute. Up to this point, IdV held three national conventions:

  • National Assembly – Rome, 20 February 1999
  • National Assembly – Rome, 2–3 October 2004
  • National Congress – Rome, 5–7 February 2010 (slogan: The alternative for a new Italy)

Famous quotes containing the word conventions:

    Languages exist by arbitrary institutions and conventions among peoples; words, as the dialecticians tell us, do not signify naturally, but at our pleasure.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    Why does almost everything seem to me like its own parody? Why must I think that almost all, no, all the methods and conventions of art today are good for parody only?
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    I find nothing healthful or exalting in the smooth conventions of society. I do not like the close air of saloons. I begin to suspect myself to be a prisoner, though treated with all this courtesy and luxury. I pay a destructive tax in my conformity.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
