Abstract

Il PNRR (Piano Nazionale di Ripresa e Resilienza) costituisce il programma di politica economica italiano nell'ambito di quello europeo denominato Next Generation EU (NGEU) ed e' strutturato nella forma di investimenti finalizzati a raggiungere gli obiettivi di crescita e di resilienza. Il PNRR italiano e' quello maggiormente finanziato fra quelli degli altri paesi europei. In questo articolo se ne mettono in evidenza due debolezze: segnatamente la sua provvisorieta' rispetto al ripristino del Fiscal Compact e la sua inadeguatezza, sotto il profilo quantitativo. Si evidenzia inoltre come il PNRR si basi sulla convinzione che nel breve periodo l'aumento del PIL derivante da una politica fiscale espansiva sia tale da generare una crescita duratura e tale da mantenere sostenibile l'aumento del debito in rapporto al PIL. Si considera preferibile, in alternativa, un intervento strutturale e non condizionato a riforme di segno liberista. In piu', si evidenziano alcune criticita' nel modello di previsione, accentuate dalle incognite politiche che pesano sulla revisione del Patto di Stabilita' e Crescita e dalla guerra in Ucraina. The NRRP (National Recovery and Resilience Plan) is the plan for Italian economic policy in the context of the European Next Generation EU (NGEU) and is structured in the form of investments designed to achieve the goals of growth and resilience. Of all the EU member states, Italy's NRRP is the one receiving most funding. This article demonstrates two of its weaknesses, namely its provisional nature with respect to the restoration of the Fiscal Compact and its inadequacy from the quantitative point of view. It is also shown that the NRRP is based on the belief that the short-term increase in GDP deriving from an expansionary fiscal policy is enough to generate lasting growth and to keep the higher debt-to-GDP ratio sustainable. Instead, it is argued that a structural intervention is preferable, not conditional on liberal reforms. Furthermore, some criticalities in the forecasting model are underlined, accentuated by the political unknowns at stake in the revision of the Stability and Growth Pact and in the war in Ukraine.
