"This book provides an impressive first analysis of the 2022 Italian elections, the third most volatile elections in Italy's post-war history, after 1994 and 2013. Its authors document how the widespread economic, cultural and political malaise influenced Italians' electoral choices. They help us understand how, in the fluid Italian political context, widespread insecurity among voters and resentment against the political elites led to a massive shift to the right and an exceptionally high abstention rate."

Italian politics has changed course yet again. Thanks to the outcome of the 2022 general election, a coalition dominated, for the first time, by a party of the far right has taken office under Giorgia Meloni, the first woman to serve as prime minister in Italy's republican history. Italy has always been a kind of 'political laboratory' for Western democracies - one in which new political phenomena have developed with considerable potency. Consequently, the electoral analyses presented in this book make it possible for the reader to understand the challenges and related consequences that established democracies are currently facing, beyond Italy.
