  • Italian Identity Between Tradition and Modernity “We Built Italy, And
    2009 ACTA UNIVERSITATIS CAROLINAE PAG . 27– 46 STUDIA TERRITORIALIA Ⅳ ItAlian IdEntIty BEtween TradItIon And ModernIty Marek BankOwicz Abstract The paper deals with the topic od tradition and modernity in Italy with respect to the division of the country to rich North and poor South. After decades this division is persistent more than it had been expected. There were many regimes (monarchy, republic, fascism) and politi- cal and development strategies trying to come to terms with it; however, it is working, causing crises and sometimes taking the forms of semi-separatism or open separatism movements aiming at the political and territorial dismemberment of the country. Even the fact that Italy is the firm part of the Euroepan Union has not released the tensions between developed and underdeveloped parts od the state. Hence the Italian identity is stigmatized by this situation since regional or local affiliation is sometimes much stronger than the national one and people in the North do not feel often to be of the same origin like their Southern countryfellows. Keywords: Italy, modernity, tradition, Risorgimento, identity “We built Italy, and now we must build Italians,” the words that crowned in a peculiar way the process of unification of Italy. This thought – believed by many to be true to this day, as these who follow it support the argument that Italians still have to be built – is a perfect expression of the problem of Italian identity, or rather of the problem of its lack. Once the unification had been completed, Italy materialised on the political map of Europe as a fairly large state.

  • The Limits of Radical Parties in Coalition Foreign Policy: Italy, Hijacking, and the Extremity Hypothesis
    Foreign Policy Analysis (2016) 0,1–20 The Limits of Radical Parties in Coalition Foreign Policy: Italy, Hijacking, and the Extremity Hypothesis FABRIZIO COTICCHIA University of Genoa AND JASON W. DAVIDSON University of Mary Washington Scholars increasingly suggest that coalition governments produce more extreme foreign policies than single-party governments. Extremity is es- pecially likely when governments include radical parties that take extreme positions on foreign policy issues and are “critical” to the gov- ernment’s survival, as the radical parties push the centrist ones toward the extremes. A look at Italy’s Second Republic provides an important counterpoint to the extremity hypothesis. In three high-profile cases of military operations—Albania 1997, Kosovo 1999, and Afghanistan 2006– 08—Italy had a center-left government that depended on radical parties for its survival. In all cases, the radical parties opposed military oper- ations but did not prevent the government from acting by forcing the government’s fall. Our article seeks to explain the limits of leftist radical parties in Italy’s Second Republic. We argue first that radical parties are reluctant to threaten or force government collapse as this can lead to an opposition coalition coming to office and voters’ being blamed for the outcome. Second, we claim that foreign policy has been less important to radical parties than domestic issues. Finally, we argue that radical par- ties have appealed to their voters through theatrical politics and have af- fected the implementation of military operations. Scholars studying the foreign policies of democracies with coalition governments have increasingly argued in favor of an “extremity hypothesis.” In 2008, Juliet Kaarbo and Ryan Beasley first made the case that coalition governments are more likely to adopt extreme foreign policies than single-party governments.

  • The Political Construction of Immigration in Italy: Opportunities, Mobilisation and Outcomes
    Veröffentlichungsreihe der Abteilung Öffentlichkeit und soziale Bewegungen des Forschungsschwerpunkts Sozialer Wandel, Institutionen und Vermittlungsprozesse des Wissenschaftszentrums Berlin für Sozialforschung FS III 98-102 The Political Construction of Immigration in Italy: opportunities, mobilisation and outcomes Paul Statham Berlin, April 1998 Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin fur Sozialforschung gGmbH (WZB) Reichpietschufer 50, D-10785 Berlin Telefon (030) 25 491-0 Zitierweise: Paul Statham, 1998: The Political Construction of Immigration in Italy: opportunities, mobilisation and outcomes. Discussion Paper FS III 98-102. Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin. Abstract This article applies insights from social movement research to analyse the empirical ca­ se of the political construction of immigration in Italy (1985-1995). A model is develo­ ped for linking the field of mobilisation over ethnic difference to the context of oppor­ tunities which define the potential for social movements to impact on immigration. A key theoretical point is that political opportunities are constituted by combinations of discursive and institutional contexts that vary over time. Our comparison of three politi­ cal responses to immigration (1986; 1990; 1995), shows that the politicisation of immi­ gration has resulted in an increasingly more restrictive policy approach. Important in understanding this process was the collapse of the First Republic and with it the relative stability and political control provided by the established ‘centrist’ parties. This opened up a space for new cultural definitions for politics. A xenophobic social movement, the Northern League, was able to profit from this unusual situation and achieve some suc­ cess in stigmatising immigrants in the public domain as a ‘cause’ of national problems. Zusammenfassung Dieser Aufsatz bespricht neue Ergebnisse der Forschung zu sozialen Bewegungen in Hinblick auf die empirische Analyse der Thematisierung von Einwanderungspolitik in Italien in den Jahren 1985 bis 1995.

  • Eugenia Paulicelli/David Ward 162 an INTERVIEW with GIANNI RIOTTA NEW YORK, 12 OCTOBER 1996
    Eugenia Paulicelli/David Ward 162 AN INTERVIEW WITH GIANNI RIOTTA NEW YORK, 12 OCTOBER 1996 (A RETROSPECTIVE) uestion: As an observer of the Italian scene, how do you view Qthe relationship between intellectuals and political society? Riotta: You've just told me that you have been interviewing a few other people about the role of the intellectual in Italian society today, one of whom is Luigi Manconi, the present spokesperson of the Verdi, the Green Party. To be honest, I wouldn't rate him as an intellectual at all. We're friends and so I can say this. I've known Luigi for a long time, for about 25 years, since he was the head of the servizio d'ordine for Lotta continua. Then, to make a living, I started writing for newspapers and Luigi went to work at the University. But he's a politician, always was, he was never an intellectual. In a sense, that's my position too. I'm not a politician, but neither am I an intellectual. That's to say that the difference between me and many of the people you have interviewed, many of whom are friends, and even close friends of mine, is that they are intellectuals and they always feel forced to give you opinions. I was raised professionally in the Manifesto newspaper and later at Columbia University as a journalist and when I consider politics outside of my fiction writing my attitude is always that of a journalist. In Italy, this is very bizarre, and it is even more bizarre because I always use the word "fairness", or "fair", which I think are quite nice words.
