THE BASIC DOCUMENT OF THE ORVIETO SEMINAR OF THE BRUNO VISENTINI FOUNDATION
Europe harms itself with a one-way austerity that sacrifices growth and with attention mainly concentrated on economic interventions rather than on reforms, the US remains in the balance between the centrality of reducing the public debt and the priority of employment, the whole world awaits the new financial rules that have been promised for too long but never implemented and Italy pays for its delays which condemn it to a sort of administered economy, which is a hybrid between the state and the market but which remains far from goal of a truly modern market economy with efficient and transparent rules.
These are the cornerstones of the preparatory document prepared by Gustavo Visentini, professor of commercial law at Luiss and scientific director of the newly founded Foundation that bears the name of his father Bruno, in view of the seminar on crisis scenarios to be held in Orvieto on 23 and 24 March. Visentini's analysis is very critical of the insufficiency of the responses that the States have given to the crisis that began in 2007 in the USA and then spread to Europe and the world, but is accompanied by a series of proposals that concern both Europe and the Italy: two realities to be reformed from top to bottom under the sign of the market economy.
Below we publish both the seminar program and the text of the Visentini document, entitled "Four scenarios for Italy: political, economic, social, cultural"
