Abstract In recent times, technocratic transformations occurring in the governmental arena of European political systems have prompted growing scholarly interest. This study aims to contribute to this flourishing research agenda by examining the features of Italian technocratic ministers, the underpinnings of their government involvement, and the trajectories they have followed after ruling responsibility from 1948 to 2021. The main findings of the study show that: (a) there is a clear gendered pattern in technocratic appointments; (b) university professors are...

Dall'Europa alla Sicilia Elezioni e opinione pubblica nel 2017 a cura di Vincenzo Emanuele e Aldo Paparo Da metà marzo a metà ottobre del 2017, Paesi Bassi, Francia, Regno Unito, Germania e Austria hanno tenuto le loro elezioni. Ciò ha fornito un'opportunità eccezionale per mappare l’opinione pubblica in questi paesi nel contesto particolarmente turbolento, che il referendum sulla Brexit e l'elezione di Donald Trump esemplificano. Per sfruttare questa opportunità, il CISE ha lanciato un innovativo progetto di ricerca comparato per valutare empiricamente, prima delle elezioni, le preferenze dei diversi elettorati; individuare le strutture delle opportunità dei partiti politici; e interpretare i risultati...

Despite primary elections in Italy continue to be asymmetric – i.e. carried out only by the center-left coalition – their ability to involve the electorate and their growing media impact make it a powerful democratic tool. In this article we study the 2012 Italian primary elections, held by the center-left coalition in order to select the prime ministerial candidate for the 2013 general elections. In particular, we will shed light on three dimensions: turnout, electoral results and competitiveness. We will also take into account the role played by the new candidate selection rule – the two-round system – which will allow us to collect a lot of information about the voting behavior of the selectorate. What has been the turnout level in the 2012 Italian primary elections? Which similarities and differences can be found in the patterns of participation between the first and the second round? Which factors may explain the territorial differences in turnout levels? What have been the territorial patterns of voting behavior for the main candidates? The 2012 primary elections have been more or less competitive with respect to the previous Italian national primaries? We will try to address these questions through the use of a mainly quantitative methodology with aggregate data.
