Between 2006 and 2023, the number of people keeping themselves regularly informed about politics fluctuated, peaking in 2011 with 20 million citizens. As a consequence of the Eurozone crisis, Italy faced an escalation of political and economic instability in that year that forced Silvio Berlusconi's government to resign. An experts' and technicians' cabinet was later appointed with the ultimate goal of saving Italy from financial and economic default. Progressively, the number of Italians following daily politics decreased, with some 13 million people informing about the political developments in 2023.
