This event marks the launch of a book on Italy’s present decline, which uses institutional analysis to retrace in the country’s recent history the roots of its politico-economic equilibrium.

Andrea Lorenzo Capussela (@AndreaCapussela) served as the head of the economics unit of Kosovo's international supervisor, the International Civilian Office, in 2008-11, and then as the adviser to Moldova's minister of economy and deputy prime minister, on behalf of the EU. He is the author of State-Building in Kosovo: Democracy, Corruption, and the EU in the Balkans.

Bill Emmott is former Director of The Economist

Valentino Larcinese is Professor of Public Policy in the LSE Department of Government

The Department of Government (@LSEGovernment) is home to some of the most internationally respected experts in politics and government; producing influential research that has a global impact on policy, and delivering world-class teaching to our students.
