Italy's crisis: wouldn't it be simpler if the government simply dissolved the people and elected another?
[Online resource]
The decision of Italy's President, Sergio Mattarella, to veto the appointment of Paolo Savona as Italian finance minister has sent the country into a political crisis. Bob Hancké argues that although Mattarella was legally within his rights to do what he did, his actions not only raise questions about democratic legitimacy, but are almost certainly not in Italy's long-term interests.
