  2. Current Business Activities • The ASSI Foundation is the most important institution for the study of Italian business history. Created in 1983 as the association of Italian business historians (ASSI stands for AssociazionediStoria e Studisull'Impresa, i.e. the Association for the History and Study of Enterprise), three years later it was transformed into a foundation, thanks to the support of Italian corporations including Fiat, Montedison and FratelliDioguardi as well as the Milan Chamber of Commerce. ASSI's activities are divided into four areas.

  3. Language • Italian is the official language of Italy, and 93% of population are native Italian speakers. Around 50% of population speak a regional dialect as mother tongue. Many dialects are mutually unintelligible and thus considered by linguists as separate languages, but are not officially recognised. Friulian, one of these dialects, is spoken by 600,000 people in the north east of Italy, which is 1% of the entire population. Other northern minority languages include Ladin, Slovene, German, which enjoys equal recognition with Italian in the province of Alto-Adige, and French, which is legally recognised in the Alpine region of the Val d'Aosta. • Albanian is spoken by 0.2% of the population, mainly in the southern part of Italy, as too are Croatian and Greek.Catalan is spoken in one city, Alghero, on the island of Sardinia, by around 0.07% of the population. On the rest of the island, Sardinian is spoken by over 1m, which comes to 1.7% of the Italian population.

  4. Education • Italy has a literacy rate of about 98.5 %. The Casati Act made primary education compulsory to reduce illiteracy. Education in Italy starts at the age of 6. The first level of education is called as “scuolaelementare”. This education is for five years. Thus after the end of both these courses students get “Diploma diLicenzadiScuola Media”. After this Students have right to continue their studies in obligatory education which ends when they are of the age 14. After that they may take course of 4-5 years.There are many high schools in italy. The Italian students should take two year general course called “biennio”. Then for specialization they need to study for three more years “trienno”. But specialization is optional. Their age of compulsory education is now raised to 16. Students have 34 hours of classes per week.Italy has 42 state universities, 6 private universities, 3 technical universities and 12 specialized university institutes.
