Italy scale 29 places in the ranking of the Economic World Forum on the quality of the infrastructural equipments
the railroads have gone up twenty steps and the ports twenty-two
September 5, 2013

the Economic World Forum has published relationship 2013-2014 on the competitiveness of the national economies that in the specific ranking reported to the total quality of the infrastructural equipments of every single Country classifies Italy to 53° the place. In the new directory Italy earns therefore 29 very places regarding the precedence classifies: in the "Global The Competitiveness Report 2012-2013", published from the WEF a year it makes, the total quality of the 82 the Italian infrastructural equipments figured to place. Of the two: or in twelve months Italy has made considerable strides in the development of own infrastructures or other nations, than us last year sopravanzavano, have quickly dismantled or disqualified infrastructural own assets. Or perhaps there are other hypotheses.

In the last relationship the quality of the sun Italian street infrastructures figure to 55° the place regarding the 57° in relationship 2012-2013. The quality of homegrown railway infrastructures is raised to 20ª the position, with a leap forward very twenty steps regarding 40ª the position last year. It has gone still better to the Italian ports, that they are promoted to 67ª the position regarding the 89ª of relationship 2012-2013. The quality of the Italian infrastructural equipments for the aerial transport has instead come down some step, that it is gotten worse passing from the 67° to 73° the place.

Many times over we have put in doubt the value of world-wide rankings, as those elaborated by the Economic World Forum, that they are sure difficult to compile and equally ostiche to interpret and to motivate. We, for example, do not know to get over that Italy has so known quickly to supply to eliminate some of its hoary inadequacies in the infrastructural field.

our hypothesis is that the Economic World Forum has realized that the Italian infrastructures are yes far from the excellence, but however worthy of better consideration in the entire world-wide panorama.
