Ad impossibilia nemo tenetur: Notes on Giulio Andreotti and Europe
Paolo Savona
Abstract
The authors of the book considered here1 have drawn, in part, on the 120 file binders on Europe in the Giulio Andreotti Papers deposited with Istituto Luigi Sturzo in Rome. Although there is considerable fascination in the variety and importance of the topics treated in this collection, in these notes I focus on the theme closest to my own professional training and experience: namely the successive steps taken by Italy in monetary affairs up to the 1992 decision to create the single European currency, the adoption of the euro six years later, and the subsequent two decades of experience with it. I will concentrate in particular on the essays by Daniela Preda and Francesco Lefebvre D’Ovidio but will also draw on my own personal knowledge of events.2
