  • Remaking Italy? Place Configurations and Italian Electoral Politics Under the ‘Second Republic’
    Modern Italy Vol. 12, No. 1, February 2007, pp. 17–38 Remaking Italy? Place Configurations and Italian Electoral Politics under the ‘Second Republic’ John Agnew The Italian Second Republic was meant to have led to a bipolar polity with alternation in national government between conservative and progressive blocs. Such a system it has been claimed would undermine the geographical structure of electoral politics that contributed to party system immobilism in the past. However, in this article I argue that dynamic place configurations are central to how the ‘new’ Italian politics is being constructed. The dominant emphasis on either television or the emergence of ‘politics without territory’ has obscured the importance of this geographical restructuring. New dynamic place configurations are apparent particularly in the South which has emerged as a zone of competition between the main party coalitions and a nationally more fragmented geographical pattern of electoral outcomes. These patterns in turn reflect differential trends in support for party positions on governmental centralization and devolution, geographical patterns of local economic development, and the re-emergence of the North–South divide as a focus for ideological and policy differences between parties and social groups across Italy. Introduction One of the high hopes of the early 1990s in Italy was that following the cleansing of the corruption associated with the party regime of the Cold War period, Italy could become a ‘normal country’ in which bipolar politics of electoral competition between clearly defined coalitions formed before elections, rather than perpetual domination by the political centre, would lead to potential alternation of progressive and conservative forces in national political office and would check the systematic corruption of partitocrazia based on the jockeying for government offices (and associated powers) after elections (Gundle & Parker 1996).

  • Datenschutz in Europa
    Fraktion der Progressiven Allianz der Sozialdemokraten im Europäischen Parlament Datenschutz in Europa © Gerd Altmann / pixelio.de Jutta Haug Bernhard Rapkay Birgit Sippel Die SPD-Europaabgeordneten für das Westliche Westfalen Datenschutz in Europa Vorwort Datenschutz ist ein Grundrecht. Niedergelegt in Art. 8 der Charta der Grundrechte der Europäi- schen Union heißt es da im Punkt 1: „Jede Person hat das Recht auf Schutz der sie betreffenden personenbezogenen Daten.“ Doch das Recht auf Datenschutz in Europa ist in den 27, demnächst 28 Mitgliedstaaten sehr unter- schiedlich geregelt. Es gibt zwar eine für alle verbindliche Richtlinie aus dem Jahr 1995; aber un- terschiedliche Umsetzungen haben zu einem ungleichen Datenschutzniveau in der EU geführt. Da- rüber hinaus sind wir fast 20 Jahre weiter und es gibt heute völlig neue und auch größere Heraus- forderungen für den Datenschutz. Um dem Rechnung zu tragen, ist eine Änderung der Datenschutzgesetzgebung nötig, für die die EU-Kommission im vergangenen Jahr zwei Vorschläge unterbreitet hat. Ziel ist ein einheitliches, modernes Datenschutzrecht mit hohen Standards für die ganze Europäische Union. Diese Vorschläge werden momentan in den zuständigen Gremien des Europäischen Parlamentes beraten. Der federführende Ausschuss für Bürgerliche Freiheiten, Justiz und Inneres (LIBE) wird in absehbarer Zeit einen Beschlussvorschlag unterbreiten. Wie heftig und umstritten die Debatte dazu ist, zeigt die Tatsache, dass einschließlich der Änderungsvorschläge der beiden Berichterstatter Dimitrios Droutsas (S&D-Fraktion) und Jan Philipp Albrecht (Fraktion der GRÜNEN) fast 4000 Änderungsanträge, die sich zum Teil natürlich diametral entgegenstehen, aus den Reihen der Ab- geordneten unterbreitet wurden. Die vorliegende Broschüre soll einen knappen Einstieg in diese Debatte vermitteln. Sobald im LIBE-Ausschuss das Mandat für die dann folgenden Verhandlungen mit dem (Justiz-) Ministerrat beschlossen wurde, werden wir in einer Folgebroschüre diese Entscheidung beschrei- ben.

They long to know what the decision-makers are thinking, so they can plan ahead. They yearn to be in the loop, to have the drop on things. It is the genius of the lobbyists and the consultants to understand this need, and to satisfy it in the most imaginative way. Business forums are vehicles for forging links and maintain a dialogue with business, industrial and trade organisations. They allow the discussions of general and pre-legislative issues in a different context from lobbying contacts about specific matters. They provide an opportunity to get Members of the European Parliament and other decision-makers from the European institutions together with various business sectors.

  • The Political Legacy of Entertainment TV
    School of Economics and Finance The Political Legacy of Entertainment TV Ruben Durante, Paolo Pinotti and Andrea Tesei Working Paper No. 762 December 201 5 ISSN 1473-0278 The Political Legacy of Entertainment TV∗ Ruben Durantey Paolo Pinottiz Andrea Teseix July 2015 Abstract We investigate the political impact of entertainment television in Italy over the past thirty years by exploiting the staggered intro- duction of Silvio Berlusconi's commercial TV network, Mediaset, in the early 1980s. We find that individuals in municipalities that had access to Mediaset prior to 1985 - when the network only featured light entertainment programs - were significantly more likely to vote for Berlusconi's party in 1994, when he first ran for office. This effect persists for almost two decades and five elections, and is es- pecially pronounced for heavy TV viewers, namely the very young and the old. We relate the extreme persistence of the effect to the relative incidence of these age groups in the voting population, and explore different mechanisms through which early exposure to en- tertainment content may have influenced their political attitudes. Keywords: television, entertainment, voting, political participa- tion, Italy.

  • E42 Mark Blyth & David Kertzer Mixdown
    Brown University Watson Institute | E42_Mark Blyth & David Kertzer_mixdown [MUSIC PLAYING] MARK BLYTH: Hello, and welcome to a special edition of Trending Globally. My name is Mark Blyth. Today, I'm interviewing David Kertzer. David is the former provost here at Brown University. But perhaps more importantly, he knows more about Italy than practically anybody else we can find. Given that the elections have just happened in Italy and produced yet another kind of populist shock, we thought is was a good idea to bring him in and have a chat. Good afternoon, David. DAVID KERTZER: Thanks for having me, Mark. MARK BLYTH: OK, so let's try and put this in context for people. Italy's kicked off. Now, we could talk about what's happening right now today, but to try and get some context on this, I want to take us back a little bit. This is not the first time the Italian political system-- indeed the whole Italian state-- has kind of blown up. I want to go back to 1994. That's the last time things really disintegrated. Start there, and then walk forward, so then we can talk more meaningfully about the election. So I'm going to invite you to just take us back to 1994. Tell us about what was going on-- the post-war political compact, and then [BLOWS RASPBERRY] the whole thing fell apart. DAVID KERTZER: Well, right after World War II, of course, it was a new political system-- the end of the monarchy. There is a republic. The Christian Democratic Party, very closely allied with the Catholic Church, basically dominated Italian politics for decades.
