In 2003, the government headed by Silvio Berlusconi attempted to
take Italian public policy in a new direction. In social and labor
market policy it challenged concertation; in foreign policy, it
tried to transform the country's traditional Europeanist position
into a pro-Atlantic stance; within the European Union, it promoted
an inter-governmental position. The government's plans to alter the
status quo did not always succeed, due to tensions within the
majority. The opposition, in the meantime, mobilized around the
issue of peace and the Iraq war. European Commission President
Romano Prodi responded to the Ulivo coalition's fragmentation by
proposing a unitary list for the 2004 European elections. There
were also repeated attempts to change the features of public policy
and political competition, countered by noteworthy forms of
resistance.
