Example text

There was a growth in the weight of big business in which the role of state-owned and foreign-controlled enterprises increased. With regard to the former, the expansion process started during fascism, and continued and consolidated, while, with regard to the latter, the openness of the markets allowed them to resume the role that had been neglected after the major crisis. The 1950s and the 1960s are known as the years of the Italian ‘economic miracle’, perhaps the period in which the structure of the Italian system of enterprises tended to be more similar to that of the most advanced countries.

The following shift from the regime of electricity and steel to that of oil, cars and mass production, occurred in Italy, but, more generally, in Europe, with a certain lag in comparison with the United States, and did not immediately provide major changes in the previous patterns.

The extent of the transformations due to technological change is well represented by the increase in the companies specialised in supplying computer services − hardware, software and integrated systems.
