Antonino Galloni

Antonino Galloni graduated in Law in Rome in 1975 at the age of 22.

In the following years he lectures at the same University, Faculty of Political Science, with two courses in Contemporary Economic History on the Giolittian Age and Roosevelt's New Deal. To specialize in American Economic History, in 1978, he conducted research in Berkeley (CA) financed by the CNR and under the guidance of Prof. Richard Webster.

In 1979 he returned to Italy, where he won a competition for tenured official at the Ministry of Budget and Economic Planning. He met Prof. Federico Caffè with whom he began an intense scientific and editorial collaboration. During the 1980s he is an adjunct lecturer: two years at the Catholic University of Milan, then Naples and Modena. He is a member of the OECD's "Ad Hoc Group" on technological innovation in SMEs.

Beginning in 1981 he is very active within his Ministry in criticizing monetary policy choices and enjoys a large following in civil society for this commitment; he is seconded to the Ministry of the Treasury to form a think thank (headed by Undersecretary of State Carlo Fracanzani) to understand whether the economic policies decided in those years are obligatory or optional. Having found it difficult to change his country's monetary policies, in 1986 he moved to the Ministry of State Holdings where an attempt was made to set up a garrison to offer resistance to privatization projects, and Undersecretary Angelo Picano appointed him Head of the Technical Secretariat.

He returned to the U.S. (Houston), became an industrial executive, and was a board member of important Italian and foreign companies (Agip Coal, Aluminia, Gepi, Fintex co.) but was called back into service by the Andreotti government in 1989 to be appointed Head of the Technical Secretariat of the Ministry of the Budget with the aim of changing the country's economic and monetary policy lines. But after a few months, an agreement is reached between Kohl, Mitterand and Andreotti that defines a definitive arrangement for Europe: the renunciation of the mark, support for German reunification, and a downsizing of Italy's industrial and political weight.

Galloni then had to leave this post, but was promoted to Director General at the Ministry of Labor: in the 1990s-93s he reorganized its statistical and information system with such success that he was awarded the honor of Grande Ufficiale al Merito della Repubblica and, later, the prestigious post of Director General of Cooperation by Minister Gino Giugni. During the 1990s, he is also an adjunct professor at LUISS in Rome.Ministerial adviser for employment policies until 1999 and chairman of the Technical Committee for the selective investigation of layoffs in large companies, he carries out a very severe critique of the transformation of labor flexibility into precarization.

Following this, he had to leave active administration in 2002 to take up delicate supervisory positions in social security agencies:

INPDAP (until 2010),
INPS (until 2015),
INAIL (until retirement on June 1, 2018).

He collaborated with Prof. Federico Caffè of the Faculty of Economics and Business at the University of Rome between 1981 and 1986; the fruit of this collaboration were two publications on technological change and monetary policies and numerous articles summarizing some research on the connection between macroeconomic maneuvers and industrial strategy in the perspective of a growth of internal compatibilities within the capitalist system.
