        Investing in R&D: why should Italy do it?

          Research is one of the assets that Italy needs to tap as it strives to jumpstart the economy. The pandemic and the science community’s rapid response to the virus have further emphasized the importance of a competitive ecosystem in this sector. Italy’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan offers an opportunity to invest both in basic research and in subsequent development and technology transfer stages. The country can claim a certain amount of progress over recent years, but intervention is still necessary in a range of areas.

            The Biden Administration and the Future of America

              President Biden’s inauguration comes at a moment of serious division in the United States. Urgent domestic issues and a shifting international context have created some major challenges for the American leadership. Although he may be eager to put the “Trump factor” behind him with a long series of executive orders right from the start, the new president must also lay out a broader strategy.

              Aspen Forum Italy/France

                What were already solid Italian-French relations have become even stronger as the two nations have confronted the challenges posed by the pandemic, the first and most restrictive of these having had to do with the second wave. The continuous coordination France and Italy have set in motion is emblematic of the unified European reaction that followed an initial lack of cooperation during the first phase of the emergency. Today’s joint European efforts on a vaccine is proof that the Union can play a decisive role in this crisis, with benefits across its entire membership.

                The new US administration and transatlantic relations: a renewed NATO?

                  The arrival of a new administration in Washington offers an opportunity to reconsider the broad spectrum of commitments and instruments that NATO uses to pursue its objectives. The Alliance has shown a great capacity for adaptation, but the many challenges of the coming years are going to call for new joint efforts.

                  The future of Nato

                    The global security context needs to be interpreted and somehow modelled in order to better evaluate NATO’s trajectory and prospects: the international system seems to be caracterized by a form of “aggressive multipolarity”, as well as by a rather disorderly power competition across the spectrum. The US-China question has inevitably taken center stage, although the evolution of this bilateral relationship is far from clear at this stage.

                    Italy’s post-pandemic future. Proposals by Aspen Institute Italia

                    It is in times of emergency that the future must be planned. With this aspiration, the Aspen Institute Italia community provided numerous proposals for relaunching Italy’s economy after the pandemic crisis. This document is an overview of this commitment, fed by the spirit of pluralism and of frank and constructive service to the community for national cohesion – elements that have characterized the initiative of Aspen Institute Italia over nearly forty years of analyses and debates. Produced by a Group of Experts, led by Professor Alberto Quadrio Curzio, the document arranges hundreds of proposals, assessing their feasibility and breaking them down into five chapters: Enterprise, Investment, Infrastructure, Innovation, and Institutions.

                    The Power of Resilience in a Changing World

                      Globalization, new technologies, social media, migrations, racial tensions, and now the Covid-19 pandemic, have completely changed the face of society and are revolutionizing the business world for large and small firms alike. The pandemic, in particular, has sorely tested our systems’ capacity for resilience and foregrounded many fragilities, not only from a financial standpoint, but also in a more sweeping sense that encompasses public health, the environment, employment security and social equilibrium.
