Can We Control Artificial Intelligence?
Managing Its Impact on Social Interactions, the Economy, Employment, and Our Democracies
There is widespread concern about how artificial intelligence might affect our lives—changing social interactions, the economy, jobs, health, information, and the functioning of our democracies. Leading scientists have called for a six-month pause on its development to better understand the path we are on. But technological progress isn’t something we should just passively witness. We have the power to shape and guide it. In this issue, we present ideas on how and where to take action to ensure artificial intelligence complements human work and improves well-being, this time without harming those with lower incomes.

Against Women
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
Tackling Gender Discrimination at Work and at Home Discrimination still runs deep in many areas of our society. It’s unfair, it weakens social cohesion, and it robs us of valuable human potential – something we can hardly afford as advanced countries face demographic decline. Women, along with ethnic and religious minorities and people who don’t conform to mainstream standards of sexuality or appearance, are often the primary targets. This issue focuses on the discrimination faced by women, who have become the main victims of the backlash against inclusion policies, particularly those pushed back overseas. Maybe affirmative action – like gender quotas – has sometimes gone too far. But that doesn’t mean we should undo decades of progress in civil rights. So how do we push back against this rollback and keep moving forward in the fight for gender equality?Select options This product has multiple variants.

Unequal Health
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
The exodus of doctors and nurses, the emergency room crisis, and the forgotten lesson of the pandemic People are living longer, but the inequality in aging is growing. There are increasing disparities in longevity and the chances of having a long, healthy life, influenced by income, occupation, and place of birth. Meanwhile, young people are facing rising levels of depression. Italy’s universal healthcare system faces significant challenges. During the pandemic, we received nearly 200 billion euros from Europe. It was expected that we would use these substantial resources to prepare for these challenges. Instead, emergency medicine is in a constant state of crisis, with shortages of doctors in many specialties and an even greater shortage of nurses. With the Recovery and Resilience National Plan, we have taken on an additional 123 billion euros of debt and have no more funds for healthcare. Despite this, there are still many improvements that can be made even with limited resources.Select options This product has multiple variants. The options may be chosen on the product page -

War Economy
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
The arms industry drains resources from social programs. Economic measures can help shorten conflicts Donald Trump may dream of a Nobel Peace Prize, but the facts tell another story: conflicts from Ukraine to Gaza are only growing worse. How can we shorten them? Economic sanctions can slow the flow of weapons and military supplies, while the cynical recruitment of Russian soldiers—sent to die at Putin’s command—must be halted. In this context, the West needs to speak plainly: shut the door on dictators and oligarchs, but offer refuge to those fleeing oppressive regimes and refusing to be coerced into the war.Select options This product has multiple variants.

The new boundaries of European economic sovereignty
Original price was: 6,50 €.4,90 €Current price is: 4,90 €.
In Europe, it is no longer feasible to separately address economic and geopolitical risks. We are confronted by ruthless dictators who manipulate energy resources as tools for political and military coercion; formidable powers like China, which fortify their influence in the Union’s new member states through strategic investments and trade relations; and long-standing allies like the United States, which have demonstrated their intent to prioritize their own geopolitical agendas, even at odds with European interests. How can we make Europe less susceptible to external manipulation, pressures, and shocks, while simultaneously mitigating the impact on the Union’s already tepid economic growth?Select options This product has multiple variants.
