Italy: un futuro come "media potenza"
Source: Conflicts and strategies
In the previous article, we had mentioned the need for a resumption of Italy's strategic role in the Mediterranean and greater weight in the "Euro/Atlantic" area.
The European Union, the Middle East and North Africa, they are the main poles where our foreign policy must return to having an assertive role.
The EU in particular, is experiencing a historical period of extreme weakness: the exponential growth of Eurosceptic parties due to senseless migration policies, the economic and bureaucratic rigidity of its institutions, they have significantly weakened its structure. Brexit was the first important consequence of the crisis of the European system.
Italy, as a founding country of the EU and always present at international tables, G7 and United Nations, it has progressively lost strategic and economic weight, as US unipolarity gradually extended its hegemony across the globe. Read More

Syria in chaos, speak to The Special the journalist, writer and historian Massimo Fini, always a supporter of the right to self-determination of peoples and very attentive to the dynamics in the Arab world. There is a war of threats between Russia and America, amid Trump tweets announcing imminent attacks against the Russians, and Moscow accusing America of wanting to disappear the evidence that would exonerate Assad from the accusation of having launched the chemical attack on Duma. But what are Trump's real intentions? He really wants to start a war with devastating results, or in the end it will be limited as has already happened in the past, to hit secondary targets without touching Russian bases?
Finish, where are we at?? War will break out between Russians and Americans in Syria with the probable involvement of China and Iran to protect Assad and with France and Great Britain alongside the USA?
“I don't think the United States and Russia will come to a head-on collision, as has always happened, they will wage war through third parties. Trump is interested in having good relations with Putin and a war is not in his favor. The real problem in the Middle East is represented by Israel which attacks and bombs without any rules. I am sure that if World War III breaks out it will only be the fault of the Israelis. The Gaza story is terrifying. They shoot at the population and refuse international inspections". Read More

Television writer, writer, mass media expert and political communication expert, in a conversation with Formiche.net he delves into a topic dear to him, lo storytelling politico, starting from American fiction

“Series are a form of geopolitics, they manage to make the real understood more than the real” and if to say it and Carlo Freccero you can't help but believe him. Television writer, writer, mass media expert and political communication expert, in a conversation with Formiche.net explores a topic dear to him, lo storytelling politico, starting from American fiction, capable, explains Freccero, to be ahead of the curve more than any other form of communication, also the election of Donald Trump to the White House. While in Italy…
He said fiction is truer than truth, what does it mean?
It's very simple, fiction must be understood as critical storytelling of reality. Because of this, in some way it is capable of anticipating this reality, because he knows how to grasp the spirit of the time. If I think and read Hause of Cards, which was the perfect portrait of Clintonism in its declinations, it was inevitable that Trump would then arrive. And not only that. Another sensational example of how the series have rewritten power is 24, which had already anticipated September 11th, what is called the state of exception, and I could continue. But there is a very important fact, that is, US politics can be understood through the critical vision of American seriality, what an eye opener, it does a ferocious debunking of reality that mainstream newspapers are not capable of doing.
