“It is a worrying situation. We are becoming an ever older country also because of young people who go abroad. We must rethink the Italian development model by focusing on the future, new ideas, on young people. A country that forces its best talents to emigrate destroys their future. And we must defend science not only for its practical effects, but also for its cultural value. Transforming science into culture must be a priority.” Thus the Nobel Prize Giorgio Parisi during the event “The great expulsion”, promoted by Alliance Verdi and Left in Rome.
