    • The formula "imperfect two-party system" was coined by the political scientist Giorgio Galli. Under this title, midway through the 1960s, he published an essay that for a long time was a landmark in the analysis of the Italian political structure. See Galli, Il bipartitismo imperfetto (Bologna: Il Mulino, 1966).

    • The jurist Gustavo Zagrebelsky formulated the "reform paradox": "The Italian political system works badly because it is not able to make decisions; the Great Reform is a Great Decision; so the Italian political system will never be able to make such a Great Decision as the Great Reform." Quoted in Gianfranco Pasquino, La Repubblica dei cittadini ombra (Milan: Garzanti, 1991), 32-33.

    • To understand the trouble the Communist leaders had in accepting the ideological and programmatic revision of their party, see Piero Ignazi, Dal PCI al PDS (Bologna: Il Mulino, 1992): the majority of the delegates at the extraordinary meeting of 1990, called in order to debate the proposal of the party leader Achille Occhetto to "create a new political party," felt that Italian society was "unfair" (54.5 percent), that Gramsci was "very topical" (89.9 percent), that "Gorbachev's policy demonstrated the great self-reforming capability of the Communist system" (53.4 percent), and that "the United States was an imperialistic power" (92.9 percent).

    • Some hypothetical projects for an institutional reform had already appeared in the 1960s, but they attracted attention mainly at the end of the 1970s, when it seemed necessary to rationalize the Constitution in order to ensure the efficiency and stability of the governments. The most ambitious attempt to amend some parts of the Constitution was perhaps that of the Commissione Bozzi (chaired by the Liberal member of Parliament Aldo Bozzi, and active from November of 1983 to January of 1985). This commission's project was of a parliamentary type, but it was never debated in Parliament. In 1992, another commission was established. It was chaired by Ciriaco De Mita, whose mandate expired in 1994 as a result of the dissolution of Parliament. For an overall investigation, see Enzo Cheli, La riforma mancata: Tradizione e innovazione nella Costituzione italiana (Bologna: Il Mulino, 2000).

    • One of the first attempts to interpret the collapse of Italian politics was carried out by Luciano Cafagna, La grande slavina: L'Italia verso la crisi della democrazia (Venezia: Marsilio, 1993), where he described the decline of the parties, due to the weight of a welfare system based on patronage, against the background of the fiscal crisis of the state.

    • The presence of an "antagonistic" left wing that was not bound by any organic alliance turned out later to be severely detrimental to the stability of the Center-Left alliance. For a description of the irreparableness of the split between the Social Democratic forces and the extremist components, see Marco Revelli, Le due destre (Turin: Bollati Boringhieri, 1996).

    • Among the very few voices dissenting on the campaign for the referendum and the adoption of the plurality system, a work that deserves mention is Mauro Calise, Dopo la partitocrazia: L'Italia tra modelli e realtà (Turin: Einaudi, 1994). It criticizes the optimistic simplifications on which the consensus for the uninominal system was based.

    • The experience of the Berlusconi government was troubled from the beginning because of Berlusconi's position as television entrepreneur and owner of three national networks. For this reason he was at the center of a very objectionable overlap between information and politics that led the president of the Republic, Oscar Luigi Scalfaro, to offer to act as "guarantor" of the political correctness of the new executive. The most dramatic moments of the Center-Right followed the issue of a decree on preventive detention that gave rise to an extremely sharp public reaction of the magistrates of the "Mani Pulite" investigation in Milan, and to a judicial initiative launched by these magistrates against Berlusconi: a notice of preliminary investigation was delivered to the head of government during an international meeting in Naples.

    • For instance, once an irruption of the members of Parliament of the Lega Nord caused an agreement that had already been made (on a form of premiership) to be shifted in the direction of a presidentialist model: this gave observers the impression that any accident might change the commission's decisions, and that which model was chosen had practically no significance.
