Luigi (Japanese: ルイージ, Hepburn: Ruīji, [ɽɯ.iː.dʑi]) (English /luːˈiːdʒi/; Italian: [luˈiːdʒi]) is a fictional character featured in video games and related media released by Nintendo. Created by prominent game designer Shigeru Miyamoto, Luigi is portrayed as the slightly younger but taller fraternal twin brother of Nintendo's mascot Mario, and appears in many games throughout the Mario franchise, often as a sidekick to his brother.
Luigi first appeared in the 1983 arcade game Mario Bros. as the character controlled by the second player, and retained this role in Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Bros. 3, Super Mario World, and other titles. The first game where he was available as a primary character was Super Mario Bros. 2. In more recent appearances, Luigi's role became increasingly restricted to spinoffs such as the Mario Party and Mario Kart series, though he has been featured in a starring role on three occasions: first in the 1991 educational game Mario Is Missing!, in Luigi's Mansion for the Nintendo GameCube in 2001, and in Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon for the 3DS. In all three of these games, he is called upon to act as the hero because Mario, the usual hero within the franchise, is in need of rescue. Luigi has also appeared in every episode of the three DiC TV series based on the Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Nintendo Entertainment System games.
Luigi G. Zingales (Italian pronunciation: [luˈiːdʒi ddziŋˈɡaːles]; born February 8, 1963 in Padua, Italy), is a finance professor at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, and the author of two widely-reviewed books. Saving Capitalism from the Capitalists (2003) is a study of "relationship capitalism". In A Capitalism for the People: Recapturing the Lost Genius of American Prosperity (2012), Zingales "suggests that channeling populist anger can reinvigorate the power of competition and reverse the movement toward a 'crony system'."
Zingales received a bachelor's degree in economics, from Bocconi University in Milan. In 1992 he earned a Ph.D. in Economics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for thesis titled The value of corporate control under the supervision of James M. Poterba and Oliver Hart. In the same year he joined the faculty of University of Chicago Booth School of Business, where he is the Robert C. McCormack Professor of Entrepreneurship and Finance. Zingales also serves as a member of the Committee on Capital Markets Regulation.
Twenty years later, we are back to "It's the economy, stupid" this election year. From the personal to the political—America's struggling middle class to the Occupy movement and the Tea Party—capitalism in the United States is perceived as a fraught and frustrated system. Luigi Zingales's new book A Capitalism for the People: Recapturing the Lost Genius of American Prosperity is a blueprint for recovery. In a conversation with Crain's Chicago Business managing editor Stephen Reiss, Zingales, an Italian-born economist and professor at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business, uses his firsthand knowledge of Italy's crony-capitalist system and his years researching entrepreneurship and finance to outline pragmatic solutions to restore the American version of capitalism.

American capitalism is in crisis. That is the view of Professor Luigi Zingales. He blames the links between big government and big business. For the man who cites Margaret Thatcher as his hero, his answer is more competition, more free markets, an end to subsidies and lobbying, and less privilege for the few. That is the way, he says, that capitalism can 'rediscover and renew its moral foundation'. So can it really be the answer to tackling inequality and mending the American dream?

Zingales Luigi - Europa o no? L'Italia deve rimanere in Europa o uscire, se non dall’Europa, almeno dall’Euro? L’Europa è quel meccanismo che costringe l’Italia a fare la cosa giusta o una pressione che forza l’Italia a fare delle scelte sbagliate o peggio distrugge le imprese italiane a vantaggio di quelle tedesche? Ideologicamente e amministrativamente l’Europa è governata dal binomio franco – tedesco che è sempre più tedesco e sempre meno franco.
