In this volume, experts examine political developments in Italy throughout 1995, explaining what did or did not change and shedding light on a series of dramatic conflicts. After an introduction assessing the political developments of the year, the discussions take up such issues as regional and local elections and national referenda, the evolution of the former Communist Party, the difficulties faced by Berlusconi in creating a stable party organization, the failure of the former Christian Democratic party and how the Church has responded to its fall, the successes and failures of the Dini government, attempts to reform Italys costly pension system, difficulties faced by Italy in entering the European Monetary Union, the crisis in the judiciary and tensions over the judicial handling of Tangentopoli, and the comeback of the national labor confederations. The volume contains two invaluable reference sections: a full chronology of the political events of the year and an appendix providing a wealth of statistical data on Italian election results, political parties, and the economy. }
