This paper offers a comparative analysis of Italy and Germany on the policies introduced to combat the Covid-19 pandemic and considers how these interventions might change the policy framework of the two countries in the medium term. The Italian-German perspective is placed in a European context, appraising the actions taken by the European Union and considering the balance between the national and community levels.
