    MONTI SAYS, KEEP ON TRUCKIN´ If you think globally, watch what you do locally. that was the message from Brussels last week as European Commission competition czar Mario Monti disallowed the takeover by Swedish truckmaker Volvo of its national competitor Scania. He banned the deal, not out of any concern that the resulting firm would dominate the European Union's total truck market, but because he believes it would stifle competition in Scandinavia. That argument seemed to fly in the face of the Commission's promotion of the E.U. as an integrated market-and its insistence that European firms have to adjust to a global marketplace. "We've always been told that there's a single market, but this ruling says it's national markets that matter," says Thierry Proteau, spokesman for the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association. "It's a disturbing paradox." In reaching the controversial but widely expected decision, Monti argued that the customer rather than the producer has to define the relevant market. A merged Volvo-Scania would have controlled some 90% of the Swedish market for heavy trucks and roughly the same proportion of the city bus market in Finland and Ireland. The fact that it would hold only some 31% of the European market as a whole offers scant solace to Swedish truck buy- ers, suggested Monti. They tend to look no further than their local dealerships-overwhelmingly Scania and Volvo-when they buy, the Commission's investigation found. Leif Johansson, Volvo's CEO, said that by judging the deal on those narrow local standards, the Commission's ruling "seem[s] to go against the basic concept of the common market." The decision leaves Volvo back where it was in January 1999 when it sold its passenger car division to Ford for $5.8 billion: cash-rich and keen to buy rather than be boughtunless, of course, the price is right.

INTRODUCTION On March 11, 2011, a magnitude 9.0 earthquake rocked Japan and triggered a massive tsunami that devastated the country’s northern coast.1 While the cautionary tales of this heart-breaking disaster will be written over many years or even decades, some critical lessons can already be discerned. Japan’s experience confirms, for example, that strict, well-enforced building codes are crucial tools for mitigating disaster risk.2 There is little doubt that an earthquake of this magnitude would have killed many more people had it occurred in almost any other densely populated urban area.

  • 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.
