Based on his long experience, which includes the advent of globalisation and the new all-encompassing scientific and technological revolution, Piero Bassetti (86) appeals today to the Italic world—to all those who feel connected to Italy in various ways—to take hold of their collective destiny as a community through new forms of expression and grassroots organization. Referring to this work and to other studies, Luca Meldolesi’s present booklet (and e-book) explores some illuminating characteristics of the global Italic network, the consequences of the emerging prominence of cities and metropolitan areas, the role of diasporas (including the Italian) in the ongoing process of overcoming the crisis within the Westphalian logic, the re-emergence of the ‘European Question’ (as seen from the East and the North rather than from the West and the South), and the beneficial consequences that could ensue, including those for our country.
