With enormous international experience that includes living in Jerusalem for almost 10 years, he was foreign desk chief at Tg2 — Italy’s second state channel — for seven years. His recent book&amp;nbsp;L’imperatore&amp;nbsp;is a journey through America’s transformation and the challenge it poses to the world. Pagliara holds a degree in linguistic philosophy from Rome’s La Sapienza University. “My first mission is to enlarge the love for Italian culture among Americans.” “We want to build a big family together with Italians and the American lovers of Italy.” “Maybe not everybody knows that Italy is the most important contributor to peacekeepers around the world.” https://www.alainelkanninterviews.com/claudio-pagliara Alain Elkann Interviews https://www.alainelkanninterviews.com/ <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/40107005/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/ea6c35/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/content/198553940
