Abstract

The article presents a retrospective analysis of relations between the government of Italy and the European Union institutions in the context of supranational fscal regulation in 2002–2019. The authors analyze the influence of external and internal factors on the state of public fnance in Italy, note the reasons that made it difcult to meet the requirements of the Stability and Growth Pact, study the main issues on the agenda in the EU-Italy relations and their evolution. The authors also come to conclusion that unlike the earlier discussions about correcting budget defcit in Italy, current focus of supranational fscal governance is shifted to preventing it, what challenges the economic sovereignty of Italy and country’s opportunities to conduct a discretionary fscal policy.
