Struggles for Hegemony in Italy’s Crisis Management
Springer International Publishing (Verlag)
978-3-030-07071-7 (ISBN)
This book investigates the struggles for hegemony, and a possible 'crisis of crisis management' at the core of Italy's political economy. With a specific focus on the conflict over the 2012 labour market reform, the book also explores the country's trajectory in the area of economic and social reproduction. It presents a framework for critical policy analysis that draws on cultural political economy and explores its potential synergies with complementary approaches such as historical materialist policy analysis and critical discourse analysis. Readers will gain an understanding of crisis dynamics in the aftermath of 2008, and insights into related political reactions. The book will also help them develop the analytical tools needed to make sense of these puzzling phenomena.
