Cultural and research activities

Over the years, the Accademia Aldo Moro has promoted a series of cultural and research activities on important political and social themes, with reference to Aldo Moro’s thinking and work.

Within this picture, the Accademia has firstly paid particular attention to the theme of the crisis of the state in contemporary societies, in order to offer opportunities for discussion on one of the decisive issues for the development of democracy in mass societies. This subject links up with important aspects of Moro’s thinking, who believed that there is a close connection between the crisis of the state and the emergence and spreading of a higher subjectivity, or greater awareness of the dignity and value of individuals, of an increase in the expectations of societies and of a marked tendency towards the autonomy of people from the centres of production of norms and values of public life.

The first Centre-Left coalition (1963-1968) was the object of various initiatives promoted by the Accademia Aldo Moro, which included an itinerary of research and reflection organised in cooperation with the Luigi Einaudi Foundation for political and economic studies and the Fondazione Italianieuropei. These initiatives aimed to promote a more attentive in-depth interpretation of that political coalition in order to bring out its significance for the country’s history.

In line with Aldo Moro’s teachings on the need to steer the complex change processes underway in the country, the Accademia also promoted a “Forum on the southern Italian question”. The Forum sprang from a multidisciplinary reflection on the situation of southern Italy and on the main points of its development.
Here follows a list of these and other cultural and research activities promoted by the Accademy.
