See You on Monday! The event series invites alumni to monthly discussion panels in the Community Space of the International Alumni Center. In March 2018, network members discussed the Italian parliamentary elections. Lisa Richter Italian elections: the panelists Jean-Michel Hauteville (left) and Julia Amberger (right) together with moderator Frank Baasner (in the middle). It is Monday, March 5, 2018. The previous evening, Italy voted in the country’s general elections. The vote: populist to radical. The results: government formation unclear. While the social democratic government led by party leader Matteo Renzi is being punished, the xenophobic party “Lega Nord” and the anti-establishment movement instigated by the comedian Beppe Grillo, “MoVimento 5 Stelle“ (Five- Star-Movement) received the most votes. What do the results mean for the future of Italy as the fourth largest national economy of the European Union? And how can this majority voting behavior be explained? To discuss these questions the Bosch Alumni Network invited those interested to the iac Berlin Community Space. Around 20 Berlin-based network members were in attendance.

A place with impact The iac Berlin Community Space is available to network members who need a space for ideas or their own events. A wide range of event formats — such as workshops, po dium discussions, closed conferences or receptions – can be organized here. Seeking to facilitate encounters in a special way and promote sustainable cooperation between people, it is part of a series of other impact places, such as Paretz, where this year’s BoschAlumniForum took place ( p. 39). Information about the space and booking is available at: www.communityspace-berlin.org Monday on the Couch on crisis management in April 2018: Moderator Charlotte Watermann together with the panelists. they focus their gaze on the small, taste- describe the attitudes of politicians and fully lit podium. the media towards refugees and report Photos: Jan Zappner, Nina Linkel What is Monday on the Couch? A discussion format within the Bosch Alumni Network. One Monday each month, we invite experts from our network to the iac Berlin Community Space to discuss a current political or societal topic. After the formal discussion, there is time to continue the conversation over drinks. Knowledge exchange about a current topic 2–3 hours 2 guests, 1 moderator, audience Venue with seating, red couch Are you interested in organizing a Monday on the Couch event? Please send an email to info@boschalumni.net. Seated on the red couch is Frank Baasner, Professor of Romance Studies and Director of the German-French Institute in Ludwigsburg. In the scope of the Bosch Alumni Network, Baasner organized a study tour over several days which took a group of 20 journalists to the north Italian region of Emilia-Romagna before the election.Two study tour participants are sitting next to him: freelance journalist Julia Amberger and Handelsblatt correspondent Jean- Michel Hauteville, both alumni of the “German-French Exchange Program for Young Journalists” and experts on Germany, Italy and France. For the kick-off of the event series , everything centers on the topic of “Italy post-election.” Together, the three speakers share their impressions, on the rampant lack of prospects, particularly for the young people, many of whom they met with during the study tour. Hands are raised, network members ask questions. Later, the buffet is opened and the lively exchange continues at the counter and around smaller tables. And in Italy? The exploratory poker round has just begun. Its temporary end will only come into sight months later, when the radical right-wing party “Lega Nord” and the populist “MoVimento 5 Stelle” finally agree on a coalition under Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte. What this substantial change of direction means for Italy‘s role in the European Union is still unknown — perhaps this is an issue to be discussed at one of the following “Mondays on the Couch.” 45
