Italian foreign policy in the 1980s represented a unique factor in European history on the eve of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Unlike other States traditionally closer to NATO, Italy, thanks to the commitment of Giulio Andreotti and Bettino Craxi, inaugurated an eclectic period in international relations towards the Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean countries and Africa. With reference to developing countries – mainly Somalia – an important contribution came from the international cooperation established by two laws (1985, 1987). However, despite the good intentions, Italy's policy of solidarity and cooperation turned into a patronage system.

Abstract
Italian foreign policy in the 1980s represented a unique factor in European history on the eve of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Unlike other States traditionally closer to NATO, Italy, thanks to the commitment of Giulio Andreotti and Bettino Craxi, inaugurated an eclectic period in international relations towards the Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean countries and Africa. With reference to developing countries – mainly Somalia – an important contribution came from the international cooperation established by two laws (1985, 1987). However, despite the good intentions, Italy's policy of solidarity and cooperation turned into a patronage system.Pubblicazioni consigliate
