The Economic and Financial Document (EFD) 2014 for Italy describes a country which does not grow and will hardly grow even in the near future. The document announces a programme of structural reforms in the labour market and for competitiveness which will generate marginal impacts on domestic demand; at the same time, it foresees an over-optimistic growth for export and private investments although ti does not say how it will be realized, given (in a context of measures devoted to respect) the constraints of balanced budget and fiscal consolidation. The recipe for the next few years adopted in the Italian EFD 2014, recommended by the European Commission, is a perverse mix of “expansionary austerity” and “expansionary precariousness” which leaves no room for employment recovery, wage growth, and not even for economic policy supporting domestic demand and industrial policy for innovation.
Il Documento di Economia e Finanza (DEF) 2014 per l’Italia fotografa un paese che non cresce e farà fatica a crescere nell’immediato futuro. Annuncia un programma di riforme sul mercato del lavoro e per la concorrenza che hanno impatti trascurabili sulla domanda interna, ma al contempo prevede una crescita ottimistica di esportazioni ed investimenti privati senza indicare come ciò si possa realizzare, in un quadro di misure atte a garantire il rispetto dei vincoli di deficit/Pil e di consolidamento fiscale. La ricetta per i prossimi anni che l’Italia adotta con il DEF 2014, raccomandata dalla Commissione Europa, è un connubio perverso di “austerità espansiva” e “precarietà espansiva” che non lascia spazio per la crescita dell’occupazione e delle retribuzioni del lavoro, e neppure per una politica economica a sostegno della demanda interna e per una politica industriale per l’innovazione.

Abstract
The Economic and Financial Document (EFD) 2014 for Italy describes a country which does not grow and will hardly grow even in the near future. The document announces a programme of structural reforms in the labour market and for competitiveness which will generate marginal impacts on domestic demand; at the same time, it foresees an over-optimistic growth for export and private investments although ti does not say how it will be realized, given (in a context of measures devoted to respect) the constraints of balanced budget and fiscal consolidation. The recipe for the next few years adopted in the Italian EFD 2014, recommended by the European Commission, is a perverse mix of “expansionary austerity” and “expansionary precariousness” which leaves no room for employment recovery, wage growth, and not even for economic policy supporting domestic demand and industrial policy for innovation.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
