The Impact of Organized Crime on Income and Employment, and Strategies to Reduce Widespread Illegality
Organized crime not only destroys income and jobs but also takes human lives. We can combat it more effectively using artificial intelligence, provided we fully utilize available databases to predict the future actions of these organizations. Widespread illegality undermines our social fabric and diverts resources that could otherwise fund public goods. To tackle the issue of youth gangs, it is crucial to invest in schools and social spaces in peripheral areas. Additionally, providing legal sources of income to those in poverty is important. Our findings show that in already disadvantaged families, job loss or the costs associated with parenting push fathers towards crime. This is a crucial consideration for family support measures and social assistance programs.

Unequal Health
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
The exodus of doctors and nurses, the emergency room crisis, and the forgotten lesson of the pandemic People are living longer, but the inequality in aging is growing. There are increasing disparities in longevity and the chances of having a long, healthy life, influenced by income, occupation, and place of birth. Meanwhile, young people are facing rising levels of depression. Italy’s universal healthcare system faces significant challenges. During the pandemic, we received nearly 200 billion euros from Europe. It was expected that we would use these substantial resources to prepare for these challenges. Instead, emergency medicine is in a constant state of crisis, with shortages of doctors in many specialties and an even greater shortage of nurses. With the Recovery and Resilience National Plan, we have taken on an additional 123 billion euros of debt and have no more funds for healthcare. Despite this, there are still many improvements that can be made even with limited resources.Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page -

Let’s Open Schools
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
A More Inclusive Education System to Prevent the Waste of Human Capital in Italy Italy is facing a tremendous waste of human capital. Hundreds of thousands of well-educated young people struggle to find jobs, and when they do, they often end up in roles that have little to do with the skills they spent years acquiring through their studies. This is a loss we can no longer afford. Each year, about 100,000 people leave our workforce. Four years ago, only one in twenty companies reported staffing shortages; today, nearly one in two can’t fill vacant positions. To address this waste, we need to start with early childhood education, improve the quality of schools by valuing teachers’ work, and establish vocational pathways in higher education. Unfortunately, we are missing the opportunity presented by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (Pnrr) to tackle these deep-rooted problems in Italy’s education system.Select options This product has multiple variants.

Managing Its Impact on Social Interactions, the Economy, Employment, and Our Democracies There is widespread concern about how artificial intelligence might affect our lives—changing social interactions, the economy, jobs, health, information, and the functioning of our democracies. Leading scientists have called for a six-month pause on its development to better understand the path we are on. But technological progress isn’t something we should just passively witness. We have the power to shape and guide it. In this issue, we present ideas on how and where to take action to ensure artificial intelligence complements human work and improves well-being, this time without harming those with lower incomes.Select options This product has multiple variants.

The new boundaries of European economic sovereignty
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
In Europe, it is no longer feasible to separately address economic and geopolitical risks. We are confronted by ruthless dictators who manipulate energy resources as tools for political and military coercion; formidable powers like China, which fortify their influence in the Union’s new member states through strategic investments and trade relations; and long-standing allies like the United States, which have demonstrated their intent to prioritize their own geopolitical agendas, even at odds with European interests. How can we make Europe less susceptible to external manipulation, pressures, and shocks, while simultaneously mitigating the impact on the Union’s already tepid economic growth?Select options This product has multiple variants.
