520			_aIn Italy, the role of the State and the procedures and techniques adopted by government and the civil service are coming under close scrutiny, and major changes are being introduced. The fall of the Iron Curtain, coupled with the globalization of the economy and information, is extending opportunities for medium range powers with long cultural and commercial traditions, like Italy, while demanding renewed structures and know-how in order to successfully meet the new challenges and seize the new opportunities. The Foreign Ministry is therefore set for internal reorganization, empowering posts in Rome and abroad by freeing them of many of their administrative burdens, so that they can act and react more effectively in this new environment. - Reproduced
