CORRIERE DELLA SERA - Roger ABRAVANEL in "Students deserve the best teachers": it is a front page comment on the Government's competition to hire 12 new teachers. Speaking of controversies, precarious jobs and competitions, Abravanel puts forward an unavoidable question: "Which teacher would you prefer for your child, a 45-year-old lady today at number 152 in the merit rankings of a competition 10 years ago or a young thirty-year-old who was among the first in a competition held these days?”
THE PRESS - Giuseppe DE RITA in an interview with Alain Elkann claims that "Italy is hiding for fear of the future" and has returned to a "submerged country" that "has lost ambition" even if the symptoms are felt that before or then things will change.

IL SOLE 24 ORE – On the front page Romani Prodi hopes that "Europe focuses on manufacturing" and observes that "for too long we have talked only about finance, but manufacturing is the heart of the European economy and today it is a priority to defend and relaunch our production system”. The conversation between Apple CEO Tim Kook and US President Obama was enlightening, but also the shortening of the distances on labor costs between Europe, Eastern Europe and Asia.
