For Aosta Valley

For Aosta Valley (Pour la Vallée d'Aoste, PVdA) was a social-liberal and Christian-leftist Italian political party active in Aosta Valley.

It was founded in 1993 by Cesare Dujany, former leader of the Popular Democrats, and Ilario Lanivi, leader of the Independent Autonomists. In the 1993 regional election the party won 4.3% of the vote and got elected two regional deputies. In 1998 PVdA merged into the Autonomists.

In the 1994 general election Dujany was re-elected to the Italian Senate.

Famous quotes containing the word valley:

    “How old the world is! I walk between two eternities.... What is my fleeting existence in comparison with that decaying rock, that valley digging its channel ever deeper, that forest that is tottering and those great masses above my head about to fall? I see the marble of tombs crumbling into dust; and yet I don’t want to die!”
    —Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
