Il volume esamina e valuta la politica di bilancio italiana realizzata nell’anno 2017. Nella prima parte vengono presentati gli impatti macroeconomici e distributivi. Nella seconda parte ci si sofferma sulle conseguenze delle politiche di aggiustamento fiscale. In primo luogo, si analizza se siano più efficaci politiche di aggiustamento dal lato delle entrate, ovvero dal lato delle spese pubbliche. In secondo luogo, si discute come le politiche fiscali attuate tra il 2010 e il 2016 non siano state coerenti con l’obiettivo di favorire la crescita economica di alcuni paesi europei, tra cui l’Italia. Nella terza parte, si indaga il ruolo delle politiche e delle regole europee nell’influenzare i risultati delle politiche fiscali degli stati membri. Nella quarta parte, ci si sofferma sui rilevanti cambiamenti avvenuti negli ultimi anni nell’ambito della struttura della tassazione delle imprese e del ruolo degli incentivi fiscali all’investimento, in particolare in innovazione. Infine, nella quinta parte, si analizzano criticamente sia gli interventi relativi alle politiche sociali attuate attraverso sussidi monetari e agevolazioni fiscali, sia i più recenti provvedimenti riguardanti il sistema previdenziali italiano.

Il volume esamina e valuta la politica di bilancio italiana realizzata nell’anno 2015, di cui vengono presentati gli impatti macroeconomici e distributivi. Si sostiene che, da una parte, le politiche di consolidamento fiscale mettono a rischio la crescita già bassa del Pil e finiscono per ritardare la riduzione del rapporto tra debito e Pil; d’altra parte, che i provvedimenti adottati non hanno ridotto la disuguaglianza nella distribuzione del reddito, che in Italia è una delle più alte in Europa. Oltre a ciò, vengono approfondite due tematiche salienti per la politica di bilancio: in primo luogo la relazione esistente tra struttura del prelievo fiscale, crescita, occupazione. Viene mostrano che, a parità di gettito, un aumento della progressività del prelievo incrementa l’occupazione, e che un trasferimento del prelievo dal reddito al consumo aumenta la crescita e l’occupazione. Il secondo argomento di approfondimento riguarda la misurazione del Pil potenziale, che è alla base delle regole fiscali europee. Due contributi mostrano la scarsa robustezza o l’inadeguatezza delle metodologie di calcolo del potenziale adottate dalla Commissione europea.

Published in late 2017, the Italian medium-term fiscal plan aims to achieve structural balance by 2020, although concrete, high-quality measures to meet the target are yet to be specified. This paper seeks to contribute to the discussion by (i) assessing spending patterns to identify areas for savings; (ii) evaluating the pension system; (iii) analyzing the scope for revenue rebalancing; and (iv) putting forward a package of spending cuts and tax rebalancing that is growth friendly and inclusive, could have limited near-term output costs, and would achieve a notable reduction in public debt over the medium term. Such a package could help the authorities balance the need to bring down public debt and, thus, reduce vulnerabilities while supporting the economic recovery.

The paper provides evidence that fiscal rules can limit the political budget cycle. It focuses on the application of the Italian fiscal rule at the sub-national level over the period 2004-2006 and shows that: 1) municipalities are subject to political budget cycles in capital spending; 2) the Italian subnational fiscal rule introduced in 1999 has been enforced by the central government; 3) municipalities subject to the fiscal rule show more limited political budget cycles than municipalities not subject to the rule. In order to identify the effect, we rely on the fact that the domestic fiscal rule does not apply to municipalities below 5,000 inhabitants. We find that the political budget cycle increases real capital spending by about 35 percent on average in the years prior to municipal elections and that the sub-national fiscal rule reduces these figures by about two thirds.

The book discusses sustainability and law in a multifaceted way. Together, sustainability and law are an emerging challenge for research and science. This volume contributes through an interdisciplinary concept to its further exploration. The contributions explore this exciting domain with innovative ideas and replicable approaches. It combines a variety of authors, from both the public and the private sectors, and thereby guarantees a broad view that enshrines the more theoretical arguments from the academic side as well as stronger practical applicable perspectives. The book provides space for thoughtful expansions of established theories as well as the hopeful emergence of innovative ideas. Moreover, the combination of three to five contributions into the eleven parts respectively aims toward a compression of like minded thoughts. This should lead to an intensification of exchange of viewpoints from different angles on a similar theme. Readers therefore also have the opportunity to concentrate on single chapters, but receive comprised knowledge and a variety of thoughts for new ideas on a particular theme.
