Abstract

Mr Sergio Mattarella’s mandate has affected the National foreign policy, validating trend emerged during Mr Napolitano’s term. Thanks to his previous role as Constitutional judge, President Mattarella imprinted on the exercise of guarantee powers the search for a legal compliance between National institutional processes and the International and European legal systems. The Presidential enforcement of this specific Constitutional policy line coming from Article 87(1) of the Italian Constitution is based on Constitutional rules that allowed the domestic system’s opening to ultra-State legal levels (Articles 10, 11, 117 (1) of the Italian Constitution). The case studies reported in the research show that the influence of President Mattarella on the National foreign policy also derives from the exercise of powers that cannot be strictly considered Presidential foreign policy prerogatives, as the powers of the control over the laws and the appointment of Ministers. By doing this, Mr Mattarella has contributed to giving the successor to the Presidency a substantive role on the foreign policy, implementing Constitution provisions.
