Leggere il presente is SDA Bocconi Roma's book club. A series of meetings where the issues reshaping businesses, markets and institutions become conversation: with those who study them, those who live them, those who decide. Each appointment starts from a concrete question and a book that brings it into focus. In one hour, it becomes clear where the game is played and what room for action is available.

Is Italy's automotive industry finished?

The automotive sector is where technological, geopolitical and industrial transformations are most clearly visible. Is the problem European regulations or competition from Chinese electric vehicles? Or the wrong strategic choices made by major European groups and by industrial policy?

The conversation features Maurizio Landini, Secretary General of CGIL and author of Un'altra storia (Piemme), and Francesco Zirpoli (Università Ca' Foscari), who wrote the book at the heart of the discussion: Auto-distruzione. Crisi e trasformazione dell'industria dell'automobile (Laterza). Moderated by Stefano Feltri.
