Bruni of the NYT interviews the new Mayor of Rome, a transplant surgeon who lived most of his life in Pennsylvania. The effort by expatriates like the new mayor Ignazio Marino to give Italy a new start following the Berlusconi era and the stagnation in Italy's political and economic system. Marino won with 64% of the vote. Many of the people Bruni talked to in Italy are deeply conscious of the difficulties facing Italy as it tries to put itself on a new path, making a transfer to a younger generation, ending the Berlusconi era, and puting aside the sclerotic ways of the past.

The rift between generations in Italy
04/19/2013
The efforts to elect 80 year old union leader Marini as president, after a private agreement between Italian political leaders Bersani and Berlusconi, exposed deep rifts in Italian politics.

Eduardo Porter compares Italy with the U.S. in attitudes to public services, health care and taxes
01/11/2010
Why are Americans averse to higher taxes in comparison to Italians and other Europeans asks Porter. And does it have something to do with European satisfaction with seeing tax dollars at work in the homogenous societies of Europe, compared to less evidence of tax dollars put to productive use and the linguistic and cultural diversity in the U.S.?

The Washington Post's Weymouth interviews Italy's prime minister Letta in October 2013
10/18/2013
Enrico Letta makes it clear that his mission is to put behind him the geriatric Italy where the professors are old, the politicians are old, and the old ways prevail. His mission says Letta, 47 years old, is to see the younger generation take charge in Italy. Italy takes the presidency of the European Union in the second semester 2014, and Letta is outspokenly pro-European. Credibility in financial markets and economic growth are his main priorities.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
