Does the health emergency 'cure' the welfare state of economic and financial conditioning?

Abstract

In the perspective of the events deriving from the pandemic, the paper examines the different problems that had changed the structure of the Welfare State due to economic and financial conditioning. In particular, the criticalities of the relationship between the State and the Regions and between the States and the European Union and, finally, of globalization have emerged even more evident. The different perspective offered by the Coronavirus could lead to a return to the original setting of the Welfare State.
