When work is not enough
The two faces of the job market: more employment but lighter paychecks
Like in other countries, Italy is seeing record levels of employment. There are more salaried workers and an increase in permanent contracts. Yet, despite these statistics, many Italian families remain frustrated and dissatisfied, as their income is insufficient to escape poverty. Particularly for laborers, wages have diminished in purchasing power. The absence of a minimum wage, ineffective collective bargaining, and the diminished strength of unions—contrary to their outward portrayal—further exacerbate the situation.

The new boundaries of European economic sovereignty
6,50 €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 -

Unequal Health
6,50 €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
