Lo strano caso di Fini e il suo doppio nell'Italia che cambia
With scientific accuracy and captivating style, Paolo Armaroli reconstructs the various anomalies of the last Italian legislature:Â from the two-faced role played by Gianfraco Fini, President of the Italian Chamber of Deputies and Party Leader at the same time, to Napolitano â__working overtimeâ__ in order to support institutions, from the pre-announced resignations of Berlusconiâ__s and Montiâ__s governments (anticipating those of the Pope), to a Parliament gradually deprived of authority by executive orders and delegated legislation. Here in Italy â__ as the author underlines â__ anomalies never end: with the new legislature inaugurated on March 15 th , we have sunk from transient t...

Asylum Policy, Boat People and Political Discourse
This book compares the policies of Australia and Italy towards boat people who have arrived in the two countries since the early 1990s. While the regular and varied inflow of immigrants arriving at national airports, ferry terminals and train stations is seldom witnessed by the public, the arrival of boat people is often played out in the media and consequently attracts disproportionate political and public attention. Both Australia and Italy faced similar dilemmas, but the nature of political debate on the issue, the types of strategies introduced, and the effects that policy changes had on boat people diverged considerably. This book argues that contrasting migration path dependencies, disparate political values within the Left, and varying international obligations best explain the different approaches taken by the two countries to boat people.
Cartel Parties and Cartel Party Systems
The transformation of Western European Party Systems was associated with the emergence of a new model of party organization: the cartel party. The cartel party differs from previous party models because it is increasingly less an agent of society, has interests on its own, depends on state subsidies and struggles to preserve the conditions under whihc it prospers by distorting electoral competition. Through such a distortion the cartel of parties resembles the behavior of oligopolistic firms. The purpose of this book is to investigate whether and to what extent patterns of inter-party competition resemble the functioning of oligo-polistic markets. The results of our comparative analysis reveal that there is a growing gap between voters' demands and party system's political supply. In addition to arguing the implications of these findings for the theory of responsible party government, this books shows that the growing gap between voters' demands and party systems' supply creates the condition for the rise of the parties of the New Extreme Right.
Il presidente bonsai
Credo sinceramente di essere di gran lunga il miglior presidente del Consiglio che l'Italia abbia potuto avere nei 150 anni della sua storia." Così si è autodefinito Berlusconi, durante una conferenza stampa con il primo ministro spagnolo José Luis Zapatero. L'Europa sorride, gli italiani non sanno più cosa dire. Ma cosa vuoi replicare al più istrionico attore che abbia mai calcato la scena pubblica del Belpaese? Lui ha la potenza persuasiva del grande seduttore, la faccia di gomma di Alberto Sordi, il talento naturale di un animale da palcoscenico. Non gli interessa convincere il suo pubblico - pardon, i suoi elettori - perché gli basta conquistarlo. E a giudicare dal nostro recente passato, bisogna prendere atto che il metodo funziona. Dunque: benvenuti a Berlusconia, il regno della politica avanspettacolo. E queste sono le cronache impietose del più irriverente tra i suoi osservatori.
