Why Half of America Votes for Trump
Understanding the Global Success of Populist Leaders
How can over 60 million Americans be willing to vote for Donald Trump—a figure widely seen as unfit to serve as President of the United States—in the upcoming November 5 election? What drives the success of populist leaders worldwide, even when history shows their governments often bring widespread hardship, undermine democratic institutions, and weaken protections for private property? In this issue of Eco, leading economists, political scientists, journalists, and public commentators share their perspectives, offering valuable comparisons between trends on both sides of the Atlantic.

Against Women
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
Tackling Gender Discrimination at Work and at Home Discrimination still runs deep in many areas of our society. It’s unfair, it weakens social cohesion, and it robs us of valuable human potential – something we can hardly afford as advanced countries face demographic decline. Women, along with ethnic and religious minorities and people who don’t conform to mainstream standards of sexuality or appearance, are often the primary targets. This issue focuses on the discrimination faced by women, who have become the main victims of the backlash against inclusion policies, particularly those pushed back overseas. Maybe affirmative action – like gender quotas – has sometimes gone too far. But that doesn’t mean we should undo decades of progress in civil rights. So how do we push back against this rollback and keep moving forward in the fight for gender equality?Select options This product has multiple variants.

Will the Lights Go Out?
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
Why electricity costs so much in Italy and what we can do to keep the lights on while waiting for large-scale energy storage Yes, just like children, we should be a little afraid of the dark. Blackouts, whether brief or prolonged, local or widespread, are becoming more and more common across Europe, disrupting a society that has never been so dependent on electricity. To lower this risk, we need a more diverse energy mix — one that can balance shortfalls in one source by increasing another. Just as crucial is strengthening the interconnection between Europe’s power grids. Turning away from Europe’s decarbonization goals, following the lead of the United States, would be a serious mistake.Select options This product has multiple variants.

We Can’t Do Without Immigration
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
To Be Socially Acceptable, It Needs to Be Managed, Not Just Tolerated As promised to our readers, this issue of eco delves into immigration in all its complexities and contradictions. We increasingly rely on it to fill job vacancies and fund pensions, yet it remains a central concern for many. We don’t merely highlight the problems, government missteps, avoidable costs, unenforceable rules, or the gap between perceptions and reality regarding the number and identity of immigrants. We also aim to propose solutions that allow us to manage, rather than endure, immigration. From filling entry quotas to creating a pathway to citizenship and externalizing border control, we explore actionable strategies.Select options This product has multiple variants.

Should We Be Worried About Debt?
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
Global public debt is at an all-time high. How can we keep it under control? Public debt around the world has reached unprecedented levels. Managing it requires the skill of a tightrope walker. Excessive debt can become explosive, pushing a country to the brink of collapse, as history has shown us. On the other hand, rigidly adhering to balanced budgets, as Germany did for too long, or abruptly increasing taxes and cutting expenditures to reduce debt can drive a country into recession. A better approach is to aim for a gradual reduction of debt while considering that in the coming years, more resources will need to be allocated to environmental protection and healthcare, and many countries will increase defense spending. What we absolutely must avoid is borrowing blindly, without a clear plan for spending the funds, as happened with the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (Pnrr).Select options This product has multiple variants.
