...Twilight life like living in a bubble? And if so, tell us about your bubble. I wouldn't call them concessions, but there are alterations - and only fleeting alterations - that you need to make.

He shocked the Italian establishment with a vigorous Oct. 19 defense of the job for life, which many in the center-left opposition don't even stand up for anymore. "Mobility in itself isn't a value," he told a Milan conference. "The lifetime job is the base on which to build a life and a family. For me, the fundamental objective is stability of work, which...
