We all negotiate with ourselves all the time. But the ones about career changes need special attention. Negotiating with yourself about what you want is a natural part of preparing a change, and a logical step before you start negotiating with others. For many people a typical time to consider major change comes when you hit midlife and have a long career behind you but when you can also still look forward to many years at work. This book is meant as an inspiration when you decide to dig deeper and think about your work life and what, if anything, needs to change.
Setting out the historical national and religious characteristics of the Italians as they impact on the integration within the European Union, this study makes note of the two characteristics that have an adverse effect on Italian national identity: cleavages between north and south and the dominant role of family. It discusses how for Italians family loyalty is stronger than any other allegiance, including feelings towards their country, their nation, or the EU. Due to such subnational allegiances and values, this book notes that Italian civic society is weaker and engagement at the grass roots is less robust than one finds in other democracies, leaving politics in Italy largely in the hands of political parties. The work concludes by noting that EU membership, however, provides no magic bullet for Italy: it cannot change internal cleavages, the Italian worldview, and family values or the country’s mafia-dominated power matrix, and as a result, the underlying absence of fidelity to a shared polity—Italian or European—leave the country as ungovernable as ever.
