“…Under the Ciampi government, a politics of privatization of the main public assets, which culminated in the sale of all the State-run companies was accomplished, thus ending the era of state intervention in economy. This change marked a watershed for the Italian productive system (Gallino, 2013), as many companies used to thrive thanks to the State indirect or direct support, and were now either closed or sold to competitors, who shrunk the size of the productive units and ended up either in the dismissal or in the anticipated retirement of hundreds of thousands workers, as well as shrinking the economic importance of Italy.…”

The corruption scandal of Tangentopoli broke out in Italy in early 1992, playing a capital role in the re-shaping of Italian politics and economics. The claim for legality boosted those reforms that turned the Italian political system from a parliamentary regime to a de facto presidential state. Under the quest for legality, it was also possible to dismantle the active state participation in the country’s economy, so as to also practice in Italy the neo-liberal roll back of the state. Tangentopoli is also characterized by the paradoxical aspect of boosting penal populism. Despite corruption concerned both the political and the entrepreneurial spheres, no meaningful anti-corruption law was passed after 1992.

Biopolitics and the ‘Complementary Heterogeneity’ of Migratory Flows in Italy

This article focuses on the links and interdependences between new trends in post-Fordist globalization and the current direction of migration flows and migrants’ projects in Italy. On the one hand, thousands of migrants are arriving as stowaways or asylum seekers due to political and economic tensions from the Syrian crisis and elsewhere in the Arab world. At the same time, an increasing number of highly-skilled youths are leaving Italy in order to seek insertion in more dynamic knowledge-based economies. Informed by Foucault’s approach to biopolitics, this work critically considers the ‘complementary heterogeneity’ of these migratory flows as a focal point and examines them in the structural context produced by the post-2007 crisis.
