The decade commencing with the great crash of 2008 was a watershed
period for Italian politics, involving fundamental and dramatic
changes, many of which had not been anticipated and which are
charted in this book. This comprehensive volume covers the impact
of the Eurozone crisis on the Italian economy and its relationship
with the European Union, the dramatic changes in the political
parties (and particularly the rise of a new political force, the
Five Star Movement, which became the largest political party in
2013), the changing role of the Trade Unions in the lives of
Italian citizens, the Italian migration crisis, electoral reforms
and their impact on the Italian party system (where trends towards
bipolarisation appear to be exhausted), the rise of new forms of
social protest, changes to political culture and social capital
and, finally, amidst the crisis, reforms to the welfare state.
Overall, the authors reveal a country, which many had assumed was
in quiet transition towards a more stable democracy, that suffers
an immense shock from the Eurozone crisis and bringing to the fore
deep-rooted structural problems which have changed the dynamics of
its politics, as confirmed in the outcome to the 2018 National
Elections. This book was originally published as a special issue of
South European Society and Politics.
