ABSTRACT The article investigates the impact of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan, complemented by changes in the composition of government at the domestic level, on the patterns of administrative reforms in Italy. We draw on research arguments that rest on historical institutionalism, which constitutes an established approach to the study of administrative reforms. We elaborate on how history has connected well-established patterns of administrative reform to the design and governance of the NRRP measures that aim to provide better public services. We find the strongest support for the research arguments derived from the reactive approach to policy sequencing, entailing the co-existence of pre-pandemic patterns and innovative policy features
摘要:本文研究了国家复苏和弹性计划对意大利行政改革模式的影响,并辅以国内政府组成的变化。我们借鉴了基于历史制度主义的研究论点,这构成了研究行政改革的既定方法。我们详细阐述了历史如何将既定的行政改革模式与旨在提供更好的公共服务的NRRP措施的设计和治理联系起来。我们发现,对政策排序的反应性方法得出的研究论点得到了最有力的支持,这种方法涉及大流行前模式和创新政策特征的共存

ABSTRACT The political and institutional trajectory of Italy was clearly punctuated by the economic upheavals of the pandemic. The articles in the special issue aim to assess the character of the institutional change prompted by the economic response to the pandemic, and in particular by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP), in different policy areas. Three contributions analyse the reform dynamics related to the strategic axis of the Italian NRRP, namely digitalization and innovation (Ottone and Barbieri), the ecological transition (Cotta and Domorenok), and social inclusion as concerns labour-market policies (Tassinari). Two contributions focus on two overarching priorities of the NRRP: gender equality (Donà) and development of southern Italy (Cerruto, Cersosimo and Raniolo). Finally, one contribution focuses on reform of the public administration, which has been identified as a key area, affecting horizontally all missions in the NRRP (Di Mascio, Natalini and Profeti). Overall, the articles in the special issue highlight that the pandemic has been followed by a process of institutional change that occurred both incrementally and unevenly, often disguising substantial continuity.
意大利的政治和制度轨迹显然被大流行的经济动荡打断了。本期特刊的文章旨在评估在不同政策领域,经济应对大流行病,特别是国家恢复和复原力计划(nrp)所推动的体制变革的特点。三个贡献分析了与意大利NRRP战略轴相关的改革动态,即数字化和创新(Ottone和Barbieri),生态转型(Cotta和Domorenok),以及与劳动力市场政策相关的社会包容(Tassinari)。两份报告侧重于新农村重建方案的两项首要优先事项:性别平等(多涅托)和意大利南部的发展(塞鲁托、切尔索西莫和拉尼奥洛)。最后,一项贡献集中于公共行政的改革,这已被确定为一个关键领域,横向影响到北调方案的所有特派团(迪马西奥、纳塔利尼和普罗菲蒂)。总的来说,特刊中的文章强调,在大流行病之后,出现了一个渐进和不均衡的体制变革进程,往往掩盖了实质性的连续性。

Catching up with the European Union’s recovery and resilience agenda: green transition reforms in the Italian National Recovery and Resilience Plan 追赶欧盟的复苏和恢复力议程:意大利国家复苏和恢复力计划中的绿色转型改革

ABSTRACT Drawing on Europeanization and policy change scholarships, and with the aim of understanding the extent to which Next Generation EU has become a vector of policy change in the country, this article analyses policy reforms concerning the ecological transition, which Italy has designed within the framework of its National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP). More specifically, the study provides a descriptive analysis of the two versions of the plan (Conte’s proposal and Draghi’s final version) in order to unveil the nature and direction of policy change embedded in particular in its final version, as compared to previous Italian ecological policies. The empirical research presented in the article shows that the logics of path-dependence and policy layering have prevailed in the design of the green pillar of the NRRP, as it introduced a limited number of policy reforms; lacked specific implementation targets, and was developed in conformity with a highly fragmented and top-down style of policy making: one that was typical of previous Italian environmental and climate policies.
借鉴欧化和政策变化奖学金,以了解下一代欧盟在多大程度上成为该国政策变化的载体为目的,本文分析了意大利在其国家恢复和弹性计划(NRRP)框架内设计的有关生态转型的政策改革。更具体地说,该研究对该计划的两个版本(孔蒂的提议和德拉吉的最终版本)进行了描述性分析,以揭示与之前的意大利生态政策相比,其最终版本中嵌入的政策变化的性质和方向。本文的实证研究表明,路径依赖逻辑和政策分层逻辑在绿色支柱的设计中占据主导地位,因为它引入了有限数量的政策改革;缺乏具体的实施目标,并且是按照高度分散和自上而下的政策制定风格制定的:这是意大利以前环境和气候政策的典型风格。

Research & innovation policy in the Italian NRRP: an evalutation of emerging challenges for multi-level governance 意大利NRRP的研究与创新政策:对多层次治理新挑战的评估
Q2 POLITICAL SCIENCE Pub Date : 2022-09-08 DOI: 10.1080/23248823.2022.2120449

ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic has severely affected the Research and Innovation (R&I) sector, which is widely recognized as a driver of social and economic recovery, both by public institutions and by scholars. Hence, the pandemic has prompted the European Union to implement a coordinated strategy, one that has created opportunities to support the R&I sector. The Italian National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP), developed by the Conte government and finalized by the Draghi government, represents a potential turning point in defining more suitable governance mechanisms for long-term R&I policies aimed at strengthening sustainability and resilience in Italy. Likewise, events surrounding the Plan were the formal reasons for the appointment of the Draghi government in the first place. By evaluating policy documents and by analysing the preliminary measures adopted, this article analyses the Italian case, which reveals a potential shift. Indeed, while in the pre-COVID period Italian governance was characterized by an approach focussed on the government ministries, reforms triggered by the NRRP have configured a potential multi-level governance approach to the Italian R&I framework. This study also highlights the opportunities and risks of this shift – opportunities and risks that are particularly related to the role of regions and non-state stakeholders in defining appropriate R&I policies.
2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)大流行严重影响了研究与创新(R&I)部门,该部门被公共机构和学者广泛认为是社会和经济复苏的驱动力。因此,大流行病促使欧洲联盟实施一项协调战略,该战略为支持研发部门创造了机会。由孔特政府制定并由德拉吉政府最终确定的意大利国家复苏和弹性计划(nrp)代表了一个潜在的转折点,它为旨在加强意大利可持续性和弹性的长期R&I政策定义了更合适的治理机制。同样,围绕该计划的事件是任命德拉吉政府的正式原因。通过对政策文件的评价和对所采取的初步措施的分析,本文分析了意大利的案例,揭示了一种潜在的转变。事实上,在新冠肺炎疫情前,意大利治理的特点是以政府部门为重点,而NRRP引发的改革为意大利R&I框架配置了一种潜在的多层次治理方法。本研究还强调了这种转变的机遇和风险——这些机遇和风险与地区和非国家利益相关者在确定适当的R&I政策方面的作用特别相关。

Winners or losers? Using Twitter to evaluate how the COVID-19 pandemic changed the images of political leaders in Italy 赢家还是输家?利用推特评估COVID-19大流行如何改变意大利政治领导人的形象
Q2 POLITICAL SCIENCE Pub Date : 2022-09-07 DOI: 10.1080/23248823.2022.2119191

ABSTRACT This work focuses on the consequences of Covid-19 for the public images of political leaders as they emerge from Twitter discourses in Italy. To that end, the research investigates the tweets of Italian citizens about the pandemic in 2020 to understand whether the messages related to the virus can provide helpful information to track support for politicians. These goals are relevant because we know little about how the images of political leaders change in times of crisis, and Italy has been one of the countries most affected by the pandemic. The threat of the virus and the search for protection should increase confidence in the Prime Minister and foster the ‘rally-round-the-flag’ effect. However, as the debate on the virus dominated posts on Twitter, populist leaders opposing the Government could have taken advantage of the emergency to criticize the Government and thus gain support. Further, there are various political parties in the country, including right-wing mainstream and populist parties. Moreover, populists are both in the opposition and in government. We find that the images of politicians are shaped according to their stances relating to the pandemic and the ideas they promote. As expected, right-wing populists tried to use Twitter to criticize the Government but were often criticized for being ‘political looters’. Fear of the pandemic boosted confidence in the Prime Minister and his coalition. To understand these results, both context and the actor’s position are critical elements when studying public opinion through social media communication.

The government of change? Migration and defence policy under Giuseppe Conte’s first cabinet 变革的政府?朱塞佩·孔特第一届内阁的移民和国防政策

ABSTRACT In 2018, a fully populist government, without any mainstream parties, was formed in Italy. Some authors expected to see a considerable degree of policy change, while others predicted a limited – and mainly symbolic – transformation. However, few studies have investigated the impact of the new government on migration and on defence policy. To what extent did the ‘Yellow-Green’ government foster policy change with respect to traditional approaches in these policy domains? This article aims to gauge the extent of policy change in the fields of migration and defence under Giuseppe Conte’s (first) cabinet (June 2018-August 2019). Relying upon secondary and primary sources (semi-structured interviews with ministers, MPs, diplomats, experts, etc.), we contribute to the literature on the impact of populist parties on migration and defence policies once in office, advancing the hypothesis of a ‘salience-constraints’ balance.

The belief system of the Italian Democratic Party: before, during, and after Renzi 意大利民主党的信仰体系:伦齐之前、期间和之后

ABSTRACT This article aims to explore why the ‘demolition’ of values promoted by Matteo Renzi had profoundly different effects on the factions within the Partito Democratico (Democratic Party, PD). While several studies have examined the PD’s political culture, few have investigated the changing attitudes of its factions. We help fill this gap in the literature by analysing the PD’s intraparty divisions on the main dimensions of party competition in the new millennium. We draw inspiration from the theory of party change, arguing that changes in a party’s dominant coalition craft a new party image. Based on a unique dataset from PD delegates to national assemblies, this article offers new empirical evidence on intraparty cohesion. Our multivariate analysis offers fresh evidence that under Renzi intraparty divisions on economic issues widened, while cohesion on ethical issues increased. Our work indicates that opening the black box of party politics sheds light on new party images.

The three faces of a populist party: insights into the organizational evolution of the Five-star Movement 民粹主义政党的三张面孔:对五星运动组织演变的洞察
Q2 POLITICAL SCIENCE Pub Date : 2022-07-12 DOI: 10.1080/23248823.2022.2099239

ABSTRACT The Italian populist party, the Movimento Cinque Stelle (Five-star Movement, M5s), has experienced significant organizational changes, each of which has marked a different phase of its development. We can identify four phases: the gestation phase (2009–2012); its entry into Parliament (2012–2017); the first experience of government (2017–2019); the transformation into a ‘state-centred’ party struggling with endless organizational restyling (2019-ongoing). The academic literature linking populism to party organization is still scarce, as scholars have mainly focused on other questions (e.g. the different approaches to defining populism, its socio-political roots, its regional paths, its communication style), or have studied ideology and party organization separately. This contribution aims at bridging the gap by investigating the organizational evolution of the M5s. Using the theoretical framework of the ‘three faces’ of party organization, and drawing on a qualitative analysis of the party’s official documents, it identifies the actors representing each of the three faces during the different phases of evolution of the M5s and examines the power relations between them. The findings highlight that the M5s is distinct from other contemporary parties, as it has continued to be dominated by the party in central office despite its institutionalization and ‘occupation’ of the State. This organizational distinctiveness can be related to its populist ideological underpinnings.
