  • The Schengen Agreements and Their Impact on Euro- Mediterranean Relations the Case of Italy and the Maghreb
    125 The Schengen Agreements and their Impact on Euro- Mediterranean Relations The Case of Italy and the Maghreb Simone PAOLI What were the main reasons that, between the mid-1980s and the early 1990s, a group of member states of the European Community (EC) agreed to abolish internal border controls while, simultaneously, building up external border controls? Why did they act outside the framework of the EC and initially exclude the Southern members of the Community? What were the reactions of both Northern and Southern Mediter- ranean countries to these intergovernmental accords, known as the Schengen agree- ments? What was their impact on both European and Euro-Mediterranean relations? And what were the implications of the accession of Southern members of the EC to said agreements in terms of relations with third Mediterranean countries? The present article cannot, of course, give a comprehensive answer to all these complex questions. It has nonetheless the ambition of throwing a new light on the origins of the Schengen agreements. In particular, by reconstructing the five-year long process through which Italy entered the Schengen Agreement and the Conven- tion implementing the Schengen Agreement, it will contribute towards the reinter- pretation of: the motives behind the Schengen agreements; migration relations be- tween Northern and Southern members of the EC in the 1980s; and migration relations between the EC, especially its Southern members, and third Mediterranean countries in the same decade. The article is divided into three parts. The first examines the historical background of the Schengen agreements, by placing them within the context of Euro-Mediter- ranean migration relations; it, also, presents the main arguments.

  • 1 the Italian Decision of Joining The
    The Italian decision of joining the EMS: Exchange rate commitment as a political argument in favour of institutional reforms* Anna Solé University Pompeu Fabra May, 7th, 2018 Abstract: During the negotiations about the European Monetary System (EMS), the Italian government consistently held the position that Italy was not going to join a “re-edited Snake”. However, when it became clear that the EMS would work under the hegemony of the German mark, just as the previous system did, the Italian government surprisingly changed position and decided to adhere to the new monetary arrangement, although this decision imposed unpopular reforms and threatened with provoking a government crisis. The debate on the convenience for Italy of participating in the EMS shows that besides the discussion on the new monetary system, other important discussions, concerning institutional reforms, were also taking place. In many occasions, EMS membership was used to justify the need for other institutional reforms that did not enjoy enough political support to be implemented. In particular, the reform of the wage indexation mechanism and the change in the status of the Banca d’Italia are examples of how the exchange rate commitment and the European compromises were used to impose measures that were very unpopular and, otherwise, would have been very difficult to carry out. Introduction: On the 5th of December 1978, the agreement of the European Monetary System (EMS) was signed by six of the nine members of the EEC. The United Kingdom decided to stay out, whereas Italy and Ireland were given some additional time to take their final decision.

    Servizio Toponomastica Progetto — CHI SONO ?“ note sui nomi delle vie di CESENA Scheda relativa a : GIOVANNI SPADOLINI (Firenze 21/06/1925 œ Roma 4/8/1994) Giovanni Spadolini nasce a Firenze il 21 giugno 1925 in una famiglia borghese; il padre è un apprezzato pittore macchiaiolo, amico di Soffici. Nella biblioteca di famiglia, a soli dodici anni, il giovane Giovanni vede sbocciare il più grande amore della sua vita, quello per il libri e per la cultura. Non si può, infatti, concepire la biografia politica di Giovanni Spadolini separandola dall‘azione intellettuale e dalla formazione di un innovativo pensiero personale, atto a rilanciare l‘ideologia (da lui definita —un fiume carsico che riemerge in determinati momenti della Storia d‘Italia“) laica, liberaldemocratica e radicale del nostro Risorgimento. Ë in quest‘ottica che fioriscono tutte le sue principali pubblicazioni storiche, a partire da quel primo — Il Papato socialista “ degli anni ‘50 fino a giungere al — Gobetti: un‘idea dell‘Italia “ dei primi anni ‘90, passando attraverso la monumentale biografia —Gli uomini che fecero l‘Italia“. Fu Gobetti, apostolo della Rivoluzione liberale e martire del Fascismo, a diventare suo punto di riferimento in quella difficile opera di mediazione e di tentata convivenza tra laici, cattolici e marxisti che ha caratterizzato la sua vita politica. Uomo di veloci e rapidi successi, a soli 25 anni è professore di Storia Contemporanea dell‘Università degli Studi di Firenze, incarico che manterrà fino al 1970, anche durante il periodo in cui sarà direttore del quotidiano bolognese Il Resto del Carlino (1955-68) e quindi de Il Corriere della Sera (1968-72).

  • Stato E Mercato Nella Nota Aggiuntiva La Malfa
    Working Paper Series Department of Economics University of Verona Stato e mercato nella Nota aggiuntiva La Malfa Roberto Ricciuti WP Number: 37 December 2012 ISSN: 2036-2919 (paper), 2036-4679 (online) STATO E MERCATO NELLA NOTA AGGIUNTIVA LA MALFA Roberto Ricciuti* Università di Verona La Nota aggiuntiva del 1962 è il documento di politica economica che segna l’inizio dei governi di centro-sinistra e propone la programmazione come strumento di soluzione dei problemi economici italiani. In questo lavoro si analizza il rapporto tra stato e mercato che emerge da questo documento e si argomenta come il fallimento di questa politica sia fondato su una limitata comprensione del comportamento dei decisori pubblici e privati. Infine si mostra come la disillusione rispetto ai risultati di questa politica abbia portato nel tempo Ugo La Malfa verso una posizione neo-liberale. In appendice si riporta il testo della Nota aggiuntiva. * Dipartimento di Scienze Economiche, Università degli Studi di Verona, Vicolo Campofiore 2, 37129 Verona. Email: [email protected] 1. Introduzione La nota Problemi e prospettive dello sviluppo economico italiano presentata al Parlamento dal Ministro del Bilancio Ugo La Malfa il 22 maggio 1962 (conosciuta come Nota aggiuntiva) è il documento politico che ha dato vita alla programmazione economica fornendo una base teorica ai primi governi di centro-sinistra in Italia1. Riletta oggi, dà un senso di straniamento, in quanto alcuni dei temi trattati sembrano non essere mai stati risolti nell’economia e nella politica italiana, dalla scuola al Mezzogiorno, dalla competitività al ruolo della spesa pubblica. In questo articolo, tuttavia, non si vuole discutere dell’attualità di questi temi, ma si vogliono affrontare alcuni aspetti metodologici relativi ai soggetti ed all’oggetto della programmazione, e della storia politico-ideologica dello stesso La Malfa.
