Translated by Leopoldo Nuti. http://digitalarchive.wilsoncenter.org/document/115421 Summary: The few excerpts about Cuba are a good example of the importance of the diaries: not only do they make clear Fanfani’s sense of danger and his willingness to search for a peaceful solution of the crisis, but the bits about his exchanges with Vice-Minister of Foreign Affairs Carlo Russo, with the Italian Ambassador in London Pietro Quaroni, or with the USSR Presidium member Frol Kozlov, help frame the Italian position during the crisis in a broader context.

  • 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.

  • The Role of Scandal in the Political Life of Italy During the Period 1976-2011
    ISSN 2039-2117 (online) Mediterranean Journal of Social Sciences Vol 6 No 1 S1 ISSN 2039-9340 (print) MCSER Publishing, Rome-Italy January 2015 The Role of Scandal in the Political Life of Italy during the Period 1976-2011 Elena Proskurina PhD student, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Assistant professor, Plekhanov Russian University of Economics Email: [email protected] Doi:10.5901/mjss.2015.v6n1s1p333 Abstract This research was conducted to examine the relations between political culture in Italy and its political scandals in the XX century and their impact on the failure of so-called “The First Italian Republic” regime in the 1990-s. The research covers the most significant political scandals from the “Propaganda Due” to the most famous “Tangentopoli”. The findings revealed that political scandal is a turning point in the modern democracy, which reveals the main system problems and gives a chance to the government to estimate the political risks and take an action to prevent the following worsening of the situation. Also the results of the research present an attempt to systemize on the base of the most recent data published in academic sources and classify and leading media political scandals according their actors, reasons and consequences as well as coverage in the media. Keywords: political scandals; modern politics; Christian democrats; Italy 1. Introduction Nowadays, in modern societies the interest in politics is fairly high, thus Media covers both public and private lives of politicians to satisfy this interest. The hot topic of modern mass media has become diverse political scandals occurring in different parts of the world.

  • Conversations with Francesco Cossiga
    Bulletin of Italian Politics Vol. 2, No. 2, 2010, 141-162 Conversations with Francesco Cossiga Alison Jamieson The article is an extract from five exclusive interviews, recorded over several months in 2009, with former Italian president, Francesco Cossiga, who died on 17 August 2010. Born in 1928 in Sardinia, Cossiga was a life Senator in the Italian parliament, to which he was first elected for the Christian Democratic Party in 1958. His second cousin, Enrico Berlinguer, was secretary of the Italian Communist party from 1972 until his death in 1984. Cossiga held the offices of interior minister, prime minister, speaker of the Senate and president of the republic. He resigned as interior minister on 9 May 1978 after the murder of Aldo Moro, but returned as prime minister from August 1979 till October 1980. Considered a specialist in the areas of intelligence and security, Cossiga was proud of his association with the secret Stay Behind network known as Gladio, and took credit for setting up Italy’s anti-terrorist rapid response units. Church and State The first of five recorded conversations with President Cossiga occurred on the thirty-fifth anniversary of the divorce referendum. I began by asking him about the political significance of the vote, which had returned a large majority in favour of retaining divorce. The victories of the Christian Democratic party in 1947 and 1948 were erroneously seen as those of the Catholic Church and of Catholicism. The victories were due to a more complex series of factors: many non-believers voted DC, most Italian Jews voted DC while the others voted for the Republican Party.

  • Italian Catholics and the Transit to Post-Fascism, 1943-1945
    102 ITALIAN CATHOLICS AND THE TRANSIT TO POST-FASCISM, 1943-1945 Jorge Dagnino Universidad de los Andes, Chile. The FUCI was the official organisation for the laity of Italian Catholic Action for the university sector and exists until the present day.1 As such, it was an important element of the lay Catholic world within Fascist Italy, as well as having a wider presence within Italian society. Thus, the study of the FUCI provides a means of studying the dynamics of Catholicism within Fascist Italy. At the same time, however, the FUCI has a wider significance for the study of Catholic politics and intellectual ideas within Italy, as a remarkably large proportion of the future Christian Democrats who would rule the destinies of the country after the Second World War received much of their intellectual training in the ranks of the federation.2 Additionally, in the 1925-33 period, the central ecclesiastical assistant of the organisation was Giovanni Battista Montini, the future pope Paul VI. Keywords: FUCI-Facism-Catholic- Christian Democrats-Paul VI CATÓLICOS ITALIANOS Y EL TRÁNSITO AL POST-FASCISMO, 1943-1945 La FUCI era la organización oficial para los laicos de la Acción Católica Italiana para el sector universitario y existe hasta el día de hoy. Como tal, era un elemento importante del mundo católico laico dentro de la Italia fascista, además de tener una presencia más amplia dentro de la sociedad italiana. Por lo tanto, el estudio de la FUCI proporciona un medio para estudiar la dinámica del catolicismo dentro de la Italia fascista. Al mismo tiempo, sin embargo, la FUCI tiene un significado más amplio para el estudio de la política católica y las ideas intelectuales dentro de Italia, ya que una proporción notablemente grande de los futuros democratacristianos que gobernarían los destinos del país después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial recibió mucho de su formación intelectual en las filas de la federación.

  • The Election of Carlo Azeglio Ciampi to the Presidency of the Republic
    ItPol99_all 10/11/00 10:49 am Page 107 6 THE ELECTION OF CARLO AZEGLIO CIAMPI TO THE PRESIDENCY OF THE REPUBLIC Gianfranco Pasquino At 13.04 on Thursday, 13 May 1999, on the first ballot, a joint ses- sion of parliament elected the seventy-nine-year-old Treasury Min- ister, Carlo Azeglio Ciampi, to the office of the ninth President of the Italian Republic (tenth if the ‘provisional’ President Enrico De Nicola, in office from 1946 to approval of the Constitution, is included in the list). This was only the second time in the history of the Italian presidential elections1 that a candidate had been elected on the first ballot. On the single previous occasion (1985) – follow- ing adroit negotiations by the secretary of the Democrazia cristiana (Christian Democrats: DC), Ciriaco De Mita – the choice had fallen on the then President of the Senate, Francesco Cossiga, ex-Prime Minister, and Minister of the Interior at the time of the Aldo Moro kidnapping. The 707 votes gained by Ciampi (representing 71.4 per- cent of those entitled to vote) suggest a substantial majority, (albeit one not much over the quorum of 674 votes) in favour of the cen- tre-left candidate. Yet the 183 votes lacking from the theoretical majority which should have sustained Ciampi from the first round of voting suggest that there were those who would have preferred matters to be much less clear-cut. There were some, that is to say, who counted on the possibility that, if the two-thirds threshold was not achieved on the first ballot, Parliament would see the onset of horse-trading of the kind conducted by the Christian Democrats on at least three previous occasions – the elections of Giovanni Gronchi ItPol99_all 10/11/00 10:49 am Page 108 108 Gianfranco Pasquino (1955), of Giovanni Leone (1971), and of Oscar Luigi Scalfaro (1992) – with unpredictable consequences for the candidate, for the solidity of the majority, and for Parliament.
