Italy Report 2016

Six dichotomies to understand the changing Italy:

PLANNING/IMPROVISING- FRAGILITY/SOLIDITY – FREEDOM/NECESSITY – ME/US- LIE/TRUTH – RELIGIOSITY/SECULARISATION

The Italy Report 2016, now in its 28th edition, has become, over time, an appreciated point of reference for scholars, institutions, the information system and international observers.

Each year, the Report is built around six dichotomies by methodological choice, illustrated by six essays accompanied by sixty phenomenological files. Thus, through a dual reading of reality, it addresses issues that the Institute considers representative, though not exhaustive, of Italy’s political, economic and social current affairs.

The Report is enriched by sample surveys that in this year’s edition have explored some of the themes traditionally proposed by Eurispes or phenomena that have recently emerged: trust in institutions; a focus on the Church, the faith and Catholics in Italy; a focus on the South of Italy; the relationship between citizens and media; the economic situation of families and consumption; security; the phenomenon of stalking and usury; undeclared work; opinion on ethical issues; the relationship with the animal world; consumption of quality food products and various other closely topical themes.
