---------the justice system in Italy

Current issues

The justice system

Italy is one of the most litigious countries in Europe, with more than 2.8m cases brought in 2011 alone, and has by far the most lawyers of any EU country – around 240,000. But the system simply cannot cope.

Last year Severino said there were backlogs of 5.5m civil and 3.4m criminal cases waiting to be heard, with the former taking an average of seven to eight years to complete and the latter five.

The system is clogged up with a vast number of appeals – Italy's top appeals court reviews more than 80,000 of them a year – and, in 2011, €84m was paid out by the state in compensation for miscarriages of justice and legal delays, along with €46m for people wrongly jailed.

---------The organised crime and corruption in Italy

Current issues

Organised crime and corruption

It is a sector that booms year in, year out. With three significant mafia organizations – the 'Ndrangheta, the Camorra and the Sicilian mafia

During the recession organized crime groups took advantage of ordinary Italians' plight, offering loans to individuals or businesses with extortionate rates of interest, thus making a whole new group of people beholden to them.

Last year a government-funder report put the figure at €10.5bn, or 0.7% of GDP, while a study by Bocconi University in Milan claimed it was more like 10.9%.

Valentina Rigamonti. "One of the issues with Italy is we have a very complex legislation; we have huge numbers of laws but most of them are only on paper and there is no implementation. This can give space for corruption." TI also wants to see more protection for whistleblowers and an independent anti-corruption body, she said.











---------The Politics of Italy

Current issues

Politics

Italy has had more governments than any other big European power since the second world war.

"I've developed a sort of sickness from politics," said first-time voter Gianmarco Caprio.

Here in Italy we get so much of it – on TV, or just when you hear people talk in a bar, that one can reach the point of saturation. I've had enough of politics, and of the same politicians that dare to come out and still make the same old populistic claims.











---------The north-south divide

Current issues

The north-south divide

In 1861, the year of Italy's birth, unification pioneer Massimo d'Azeglio declared: "We have made Italy; now we must make Italians."

The disparity between wealthy north and poorer south is one of the country's most impervious and worrying problems.

According to the Bank of Italy, GDP per person is more than 40% lower in the south than in the centre and north – a situation that has endured for the past 30 years and has only worsened with the current recession

President Giorgio Napolitano,In his valedictory New Year's Eve speech, speaking of the urgent need to invest in the south which, he said, was home to 70% of all children in Italy living in relative poverty. Italy, he stressed, needed a vision of economic growth for "the whole country".

---------Italy compare to Turkey

Hofsted’s Cultural Dimensions

http://geert-hofstede.com/italy.html 19

http://geert-hofstede.com/italy.html



---------Power Distance between Italy and Turkey


Power Distance


In Southern Italy all the consequences of PDI are often high, quite the opposite of Northern Italy

20




---------Individualism between Italy and Turkey


Individualism


At a score of 76 Italy is an Individualist culture, “me” centered, especially in the big and rich cities of the North where people can feel alone even in the middle of a big and busy crowd.

For Italians having their own personal ideas and objectives in life is very motivating and the route to happiness is through personal fulfillment.

21




---------Masculinity between Italy and Turkey


Masculinity


Italians show their success by acquiring status symbols such as a beautiful car, a big house, a yacht and travels to exotic countries.

As the working environment is the place where every Italian can reach his/her success, competition among colleagues for making a career can be very strong.

22




---------Uncertainty Avoidance between Italy and Turkey


Uncertainty Avoidance


in Italian society is important and the Italian penal and civil code are complicated with clauses, codicils etc

In Italy the combination of high Masculinity and high Uncertainty Avoidance makes life very difficult and stressful.
