The Renzi government seems to have adopted a novel «anticipatory-impositive» policy style. This note argues that such turn is indeed visible, but that its substantive goals are unclear: anticipatory of what? Why impositive, exactly? Italy is in desperate need of policy investments for the long term. What seems lacking in Renzi's leadership is a concrete future-oriented agenda. Despite some positive results, the lack of such an agenda continues to weaken the transformative potential of the government and its leader.

Abstract

The Renzi government seems to have adopted a novel «anticipatory-impositive» policy style. This note argues that such turn is indeed visible, but that its substantive goals are unclear: anticipatory of what? Why impositive, exactly? Italy is in desperate need of policy investments for the long term. What seems lacking in Renzi's leadership is a concrete future-oriented agenda. Despite some positive results, the lack of such an agenda continues to weaken the transformative potential of the government and its leader.
