Strukturbrüche: Historisch-soziologische Perspektiven auf den Wandel des italienischen Kapitalismus
Get PDFSince the end of the 1980s, Italian capitalism has been struggling. Low growth rates, increasing inequalities and relative impoverishment are compromising the pursuit of happiness and fuelling political discontent. Against this background of crumbling economic and social structures, the article explores historical and sociological perspectives on Italian capitalism’s contemporary dynamics. To this end, it first summarises some central lines of development and then maps existing explanatory approaches onto them. Third, it discusses what a historical contribution to these debates might look like. Finally, it recalls the promise of the Italian case within theoretical debates centred on the political economy of modernity

Napoli fürs Sofa: Mediale Transformationen von Italien-Klischees im deutschen Werbefernsehen
Get PDFUsing a famous commercial shown on German-language television from the 1980s, this article analyses the media staging, reactivation and transformation of audio-visual images of Italy at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. The case study operates at the intersection of music history, the advertising and insurance industries, mass media and global tourism. It interweaves musical, technological, socio-cultural and discursive perspectives. In doing so, it demonstrates how key acoustic motifs become nationally connoted carriers of meaning in the context of the cross-media production and dissemination of clichés relating to Italy in international everyday culture
