POSTWAR ECONOMIC GROWTH The postwar economic growth of Italy has been remarkable com- pared with that of other industrialized countries, as well as with that of most previous periods in Italian economic history. Between 1951 and 1962, Italy's national income increased at a rate of about 6 per cent per annum in current lire, and the country's growth rate both in real and in per capita terms was almost as high. Prices were relatively stable through 1961; wholesale prices did not change, while retail prices rose only moderately. Population rose by only 6.5 per cent from 1951 to 1961, mainly as a result of a continuous re- duction in the mortality rate, owing to better sanitary conditions, to social assistance, and to an improved standard of living. This high and steady growth rate combined with reasonably sta- ble prices may suggest that the growth process has been essentially sound and that it has been supported by a good tax system and fa- vorable tax policies. This is not so.

  • Uef-Spinelli Group
    UEF-SPINELLI GROUP MANIFESTO 9 MAY 2021 At watershed moments in history, communities need to adapt their institutions to avoid sliding into irreversible decline, thus equipping themselves to govern new circumstances. After the end of the Cold War the European Union, with the creation of the monetary Union, took a first crucial step towards adapting its institutions; but it was unable to agree on a true fiscal and social policy for the Euro. Later, the Lisbon Treaty strengthened the legislative role of the European Parliament, but again failed to create a strong economic and political union in order to complete the Euro. Resulting from that, the EU was not equipped to react effectively to the first major challenges and crises of the XXI century: the financial crash of 2008, the migration flows of 2015- 2016, the rise of national populism, and the 2016 Brexit referendum. This failure also resulted in a strengthening of the role of national governments — as shown, for example, by the current excessive concentration of power within the European Council, whose actions are blocked by opposing national vetoes —, and in the EU’s chronic inability to develop a common foreign policy capable of promoting Europe’s common strategic interests. Now, however, the tune has changed. In the face of an unprecedented public health crisis and the corresponding collapse of its economies, Europe has reacted with unity and resolve, indicating the way forward for the future of European integration: it laid the foundations by starting with an unprecedented common vaccination strategy, for a “Europe of Health”, and unveiled a recovery plan which will be financed by shared borrowing and repaid by revenue from new EU taxes levied on the digital and financial giants and on polluting industries.

Bloom INTRODUCTION In the late 1980s, I hosted a group of Japanese lawyers and judges from the Osaka Bar Association Committee for Judicial System Reform, 2 a group interested in observing the jury system in the United Sta tes. I took them to the Massachusetts Superior Court 3 where they could observe jury trials. From the discussions I had with the visitors, it was clear that they were keenly interested in the concept of citizen participation in the legal process . Japan’s c ommitment to democracy has flourished for 60 years, and is enshrined in the preamble of its post -World War II 4 Constitution: “Government is a sacred trust of the people, the authority for which is derived from the people, the powers of which are exercised by the representatives of the people, and the benefits of which are enjoyed by * Professor of Law Boston College Law School 1 Au thor wishes to thank Franklin Schwarzer, Arielle Simon and Ben Steffans, students in the class of 2006 at Boston College Law School.

  • From Scandalous Verdicts to “Suicidal Sentences”: the Reform of the Courts of Assize Under the Fascist Regime
    STUDIA IURIDICA LXXX Claudia Passarella University of Padova ORCID: 0000-0002-3795-2879 FROM SCANDALOUS VERDICTS TO “SUICIDAL SENTENCES”: THE REFORM OF THE COURTS OF ASSIZE UNDER THE FASCIST REGIME THE JURY TRIAL IN ITALIAN CRIMINAL JUSTICE As Tamas Antal points out, in Europe “the golden age of the criminal jury was in the second part of the 19th century”1. Italy was no exception. Jury trial was introduced in the Italian peninsula in 1848 for crimes related to the press; 11 years later, however, it was extended to other serious crimes. The participation of laypersons in criminal cases was considered a bulwark of free- dom: jurors voiced the popular opinion, while professional judges provided the necessary legal knowledge. No significant changes were brought in 1865 by the first Italian code of criminal procedure2. The reference model for the Italian legislator was the French jury: jurors did not have to pronounce a “guilty” or “not guilty” verdict, but rather answer “yes” or “no” to a series of questions that the president of the court read to them at the end of the trial. Lay judges had to evaluate the crime without considering the legal implications of their decision. After deliberation, the professional magis- trates pronounced a sentence in favour or against the defendant in accordance with the jury’s verdict. On June 1874 the legislator approved a deeply innovative reform in order to overcome some deficiencies of the system. This reform, which represented an important turning point in the Italian history of the jury trial, changed the require- ments for jurors, modified the procedure involved in preparing the lists of the 1 T.

INNOVATION OR RENOVATION IN CRIMINAL PROCEDURE: IS THE WORLD MOVING TOWARD A NEW MODEL OF ADJUDICATION? Gerald S. Reamey A universal system of criminal procedure offers the allure of efficiency, predictability, and enhanced crime control. For the first time in modern history, universality seems achievable. The criminal procedures employed by the world's major legal systems are converging. What was once distinctively "civil" or "common law" is now a blend of the two. The adversarial adjudicative approach of most common law countries now can be found in the most unlikely places, and civil law characteristics adorn the processes of some of the world's most aggressively adversarial systems. While this movement has not gone unnoticed, the pace of change has accelerated, and the ways in which it has manifested itself have increased.

  • Local and Regional Democracy in Italy
    33rd SESSION CG33(2017)17final 18 October 2017 Local and regional democracy in Italy Monitoring Committee Rapporteurs:1 Jakob WIENEN, the Netherlands (L, EPP/CCE) Stewart DICKSON, United Kingdom (R, ILDG) Recommendation 404 (2017)........................................................................................................2 Explanatory memorandum ............................................................................................................5 Summary This report was prepared following the third monitoring visit to Italy since the country ratified the European Charter of Local Self-Government in 1999. The report notes with satisfaction that the principle of self-government is soundly anchored in the State organisation by the domestic constitution. It also approves the efforts undertaken by the country to foster decentralisation. Nevertheless, the rapporteurs express their concern with regard to the general lack of financial resources available to local authorities, notably provinces, and the absence of effective consultations on financial matters that concern them directly. The report highlights the fact that local authorities do not dispose in practice of enough qualified personnel. Furthermore, the representatives of the provinces and the metropolitan cities are not elected by direct and universal suffrage and do not receive appropriate financial compensation in order to perform their responsibilities. Lastly, there exists a discrepancy between financial resources of regions having a special status in comparison

  • Ugo Mattei Institutionalizing the Commons: an Italian Primer
    Ugo Mattei Institutionalizing the Commons: An Italian Primer PART I.: Political Background. Indignados Italian Style This chapter is devoted to what I believe is a rather interesting and unique experiment in transforming indignation into new institutions of the commons. Perhaps this praxis “Italian style” could become an example for a global strategy. [1] 1. A22 The complex and fascinating phenomenon of the political emergence of the commons movement in Italy is something akin to the more noted Spanish Indignados, known to the rest of the world as M15 (May 15, 2011), the date of the beginning of a long-term protest camp at Madrid’s Puerta del Sol. In Italy, the symbolic date that evokes the three key moments in the recent history of the commons movement is April 22. For three times, by chance, something of crucial importance happened on that date. On April 22, 2008, the Rodotà Commission handed over an Enabling law bill[2] to the Minister of Justice at a conference held at the Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei in Rome which contained the first legal definitions of the commons to appear in an official document. Again on April 22, in 2010, the Committee for the referendum on “water as a common” collected the first signatures on the forms containing the question drafted by jurists of the aforementioned Rodotà Commission. Thirdly, on April 22 in 2013, the transformation of ARIN[3] S.p.A.[4] into ABC[5] Napoli as a special public “commons” company was finally registered with the Naples’ Chamber of Commerce, ending a long political and legal struggle.
