Our seminar series resumes next week! We’re happy to start the year with Jan Mazza as our first speaker. Jan joined our Inequality in Rome Research Group as a postdoc in September, and we look forward to his presentation!

Imagine “the chief executives of America’s top universities and richest corporations […] issued a public statement that spoke clearly and loudly about the dangers of undermining the rule of law, academic freedom, and scientific research” @drodrik.bsky.social

l'8 e il 9 giugno votiamo sì al #ReferendumCittadinanza perché vogliamo un Paese che riconosce tutte le sue figlie e tutti i suoi figli. Votiamo sì per portare da 10 a 5 gli anni di legale residenza per poter chiedere la cittadinanza.

1️⃣ L’Economist dedica il nuovo numero al peso crescente delle eredità. Sempre più decisiva nel determinare disuguaglianze, mentre le tasse sulle successioni crollano. E in Italia? Sono tra le più basse d’Europa.

🧵 Come in Unione Sovietica o nel Terzo Reich. Negli USA è iniziata la purga delle forze armate.

Dopo la militarizzazione dell'apparato statale, Trump sta licenziando gli ufficiali non allineati o sospetti, per rimpiazzarli con dei fedelissimi.

🧵 Vance oggi a Monaco: la più grande minaccia all’Europa non è la Russia, ma la regolamentazione (dei social media) che soffoca il free speech.

Vance a settembre 2024: se l’Europa proverà a regolamentare i social media, prenderemo in considerazione lo scioglimento della Nato.
