Italy: Ultimo Atto (Italy: Final Act)
A brown-bag lunch discussion featuring:
* Paolo Bernardini; professor of modern European history, School of Law, University of Insubria in Como, Italy; inaugural fellow, Institute for Advanced Study, University Notre Dame, and
* Marina Calloni, professor of social and political philosophy, University of Milano-Bicocca; Italian Fulbright, University of Notre Dame.
Professor Bernardini argues that 2011 should be the last year of a unified Italian national state. In its place, he proposes full regional independence. Professor Calloni will deliver a response in what should be a stimulating and controversial discussion.
All who are interested in the present and future of Italy are welcome to attend.
Lunch will be provided.
