  • Italy a View From…
    A view from… Italy News from FTI Consulting’s European affiliate network May 2019: Cattaneo Zanetto & Co. is part of FTI Consulting’s affiliate network and is the leading Italian public affairs, lobbying and political intelligence firm. They provide a range of specialised services structured in dedicated practice areas. Each practice has a specific set of tools and methods to make sure we’re always on the edge with creativity and innovation. Below the team provides an update ahead of the forthcoming EU Elections on the current Italian political landscape. The views expressed are those of the author(s) and not necessarily the views of FTI Consulting, Inc. its management, its subsidiaries, its affiliates, or its other professionals, members of employees. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- European elections may represent a turning point for Italian politics. After almost a year of a Government led by Lega (former Northern League) and Movimento Cinque Stelle (M5S - Five Star Movement), the two parties increasingly appear as fierce competitors. An outcome strongly favourable to Matteo Salvini may rebalance the power sharing, while the rise of an alternative from the opposition still looks unlikely. The EU elections come as first nation-wide test of strength within Italy’s governing majority after almost a year after the birth of the cabinet led by President Giuseppe Conte. After a solid run in regional elections, Matteo Salvini’s Lega reached a favourable position in the polls, possibly aiming at reverting the balance of powers in case of a landslide win on May 26th. The outcome of European elections will then be crucial to terminate or exacerbate the conflict-ridden atmosphere which is surrounding the Government over the last months, involving direct and intense confrontation between the two deputy-prime ministers: Matteo Salvini and Luigi Di Maio.

  • 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.
