On April 5th, the European Institute and the Bertelsmann Foundation hosted a panel at Columbia University to examine the results of the March 4th Italian parliamentary elections. This event was also co-sponsored by the Department of Italian, the Columbia European Society, and the Columbia European Union Student Association.
The panel analyzed the success of the "Five Star Movement" and "League" parties in particular and discussed how the rise of these parties had social and political implications in Italy, Europe, and beyond.
