Italy has a huge and interventionist governmental economic policy. Professor Padoa Schioppa Kostoris argues that much of this state action and regulation is irrational and counter-efficient. She further argues that the Italian economy is also characterized by a large and efficient black market, so that much of the private sector already evades state control. Since de facto deregulation therefore exists to a large extent, Kostoris calls for legal deregulation and privatization. She convincingly argues that a decrease in and an altered character of state action will enable the Italian economy to achieve higher growth, and to reconcile the goals of efficiency and public interest.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51667114819872,"sku":"NEW0198287488","price":91.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61TPB_DznkL.jpg?v=1778958856","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/italy-the-sheltered-economy-structural-problems-in-the-italian-economy-0198287488","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
