The Unione Stampa Periodica Italiana (English: Italian Periodical Press Union - USPI) is an association of publishers. It was founded in 1953 as an organization to protect cultural and scientific periodical press.

History

The evolution of publishing and journalistic associations in Italy began with the founding of the Associazione della Stampa Periodica Italiana (ASPI) in 1877.[1]

Initially, the association aimed to resolve moral disputes between publishers and journalists, and focused on documenting Italian periodicals.[2] With the rise of the fascist regime, press associations were suppressed and subjected to government impositions,[3] but in the post-war period, associations were re-established.[4]

Thus, in 1953, thanks to the initiative of Gianni Robert, USPI was founded, which, like ASPI, was composed of publishers and journalists, according to the original associative vision.[5]

The 1960s and 1970s

In the sixties and seventies, under the guidance of Giovanni Terranova, USPI expanded its membership base to include local periodicals and offered new services[6] to members such as training and editorial consulting.[7]

Gian Domenico Zuccalà, Secretary General from 1972[8] and President from 1998, strengthened USPI's relations with institutions and governments, advocating for recognition of the category[9] and promoting constructive dialogue with bodies and sector associations.[10] Despite these efforts, the visibility of medium-small publishing remained partial and intermittent, forcing USPI to constantly reaffirm its cultural value.[11]

In the seventies, Zuccalà adopted a trade union strategy to obtain a favourable tax regime for periodicals and postal concessions,[12] culminating in Law No. 172/1975 which established the first state benefits for smaller publishing. However, the application of the law revealed shortcomings,[13] requiring unified interventions and a broader regulatory vision.[14]

The introduction of the Regions in the 1970s opened a new phase for local publishing,[15] and USPI promoted an active role for the Regions to support regional press.[10] Despite USPI's innovative proposals, such as the creation of regional "press centres", only some Regions offered significant support, and the dialogue with the State remained partially unheeded.[16]

The 1980s

In 1987, it was redefined as a publishers' union, focusing on the business dimension of its members rather than content.[17] During those years, USPI extended its representation to medium-large publishers, maintaining an orientation towards pure and independent publishing,[18] with no interests in other economic sectors.[19]

USPI also intervened in the drafting of Law No. 416/1981,[20] conceived to support newspapers but also extended to periodicals, although with fewer resources and benefits.[19] Law No. 416 brought innovations and financial contributions, but its application was complex, generating criticism for excessive bureaucracy and scant attention to smaller periodicals.[21]

During the 1980s, USPI focused on improving the economic conditions of smaller publishing, supporting the use of new digital technologies to facilitate editorial production.[22]

At the end of the eighties, the system of subsidies to publishing in Italy, based on Law No. 416/1981, needed updating.[23] USPI promoted a campaign to preserve aid for medium-small publishing,[24] while Law No. 67/1987 provided benefits such as reduced VAT and grants for cultural magazines.[25][26]

From the mid-eighties, Italian medium-small publishing underwent profound changes due to technological, social transformations and changing reader preferences.[27] The digital revolution and the spread of personal computers made it difficult for small publishers to compete with large publishing groups. The traditional figure of the "do-it-yourself" publisher disappeared,[28] with many periodicals forced to close. Only publishers who invested in modernization and professionalization managed to survive.[29] USPI addressed these challenges in its Congresses,[27] highlighting the need for innovation and adaptation, and promoting specialization and the link with the territory as strategies for the smaller periodical press.[30] USPI's contribution to the professionalization of medium-small publishers, recognizing the obsolescence of the all-round publisher model, was to encourage small publishers to adopt a more structured entrepreneurial vision.[31] USPI contributed significantly to the professional training of medium-small publishers by establishing, from 1988, summer internships in collaboration with the University of Urbino.[32] These courses provided skills in sociology of communication, publishing law and business management,[33] preparing publishers for technological and market challenges.[34] Furthermore, the reduction of state aid prompted publishers to rely on their own resources, developing a business culture to remain competitive and innovative in the publishing landscape.[35]

The 1990s and 2000s

In the subsequent nineties, funding was directed towards periodicals such as party newspapers and cooperatives.[36] USPI opposed this, demanding a support system less linked to politics.[37]

The XIII USPI Congress of 1991 highlighted the urgency of reforming postal concessions for medium-small publishing, criticizing proposals that mainly favoured large publishers.[38] During the nineties, the issue remained central for USPI, which sought to protect small periodicals from subsidy cuts and the inefficiencies of Poste Italiane.[39]

In the nineties, USPI addressed various issues related to the contracting of employees in medium-small publishing[40] and postal concessions.[41] To avoid the costs of the FIEG Contract,[42] small publishers preferred freelance collaborators.[43] However, with the growth of medium-small companies, USPI negotiated contracts with CONFAPI[44] to regulate labour relations in a more structured manner.

Parallelly, distribution remained a strategic issue, with USPI constantly in dialogue with Poste Italiane to guarantee efficient services at sustainable costs.[45] Already from the fifties, USPI had fought against poor services and tariff injustices, obtaining a 50% reduction in postal rates in 1981.[46] However, in the nineties the threat of postal reforms and pressure for the elimination of concessions put the survival of smaller publishing at risk, pushing USPI to continue its battles to preserve favourable conditions.[47]

Meanwhile, the distribution challenge continued to evolve. USPI signed agreements with newsagents[48] to support the distribution of smaller periodicals, despite the growing saturation of newsstands and the difficulty for small publishers to compete with large advertising groups.[49] In the nineties, alternative channels such as supermarkets and tobacconists were experimented with, but with limited results.[50] The advent of the Internet, however, began to offer a new possibility for digital distribution, opening up innovative prospects for publishers.[51]

In the same decade, periodical publishing embraced the Internet as a new opportunity, albeit encountering initial difficulties in translating paper content into the interactive digital format.[52] The true potential of the web lay in interactivity, which transformed readers from passive consumers into active participants, creating a continuous dialogue between reader and periodical.[53]

At the XV USPI Congress in 1996, lawyer Giuseppe Corasaniti urged publishers to invest in multimedia strategies, considering them essential for competing in the digital age.[54] Mario Morcellini, professor emeritus of Sociology of cultural and communicative processes at the Sapienza University of Rome, at the 1999 Congress, highlighted the communicative specificity of periodicals, especially local and specialized ones, in establishing more intense ties with readers.[55]

The Congress also explored the legal challenges of "cyberlaw", with many experts emphasizing the need to regulate online periodicals, while other voices, such as Cardinal Tonini, encouraged a balance between traditional and digital press.[56]

From the late nineties, many periodicals moved online, often without paper equivalents, and USPI began to formally represent electronic periodicals (from 2002), marking a turning point towards an integrated and technologically advanced publishing industry.[57]

In 1999, after the death of Gian Domenico Zuccalà, Francesco Saverio Vetere became Secretary General of USPI, alongside Mario Negri as President.[58] This leadership transition marked the beginning of a period of renewal, with the aim of better representing the needs of small publishers and relaunching the association's authority.[59] Vetere adopted a strategy based on pluralism and political dialogue,[60] highlighting the economic and cultural value[61] of medium-small publishing, often overlooked compared to large publishing groups.

One of the first actions was the launch of a survey on the workforce of "minor" publishing, which revealed significant employment of journalists and collaborators, disproving the idea that the sector was marginal.[62]

Law No. 62/2001 marked an important reform, including numerous USPI proposals,[63][64] such as the definition of "editorial product" to also include online periodicals, the simplification of access to subsidized credit, and support for press of high cultural value.

Vetere also worked to obtain extensions on reduced postal rates[65] and to counter a postal reform that would have penalized small periodicals. During his mandate, USPI managed to get Law No. 62/2001 for the reform of the publishing sector approved, despite the complexity in managing distribution, which remained an open issue.[66]

With the relaunch of USPI, Francesco Saverio Vetere initiated a profound internal reorganization to transform the Union from a simple secretariat apparatus into a highly professional structure.[67] Each official was assigned to a specific sector, improving the management of publishing issues, from distribution to legal and contractual matters. Relationships were established with qualified external consultants, also specialized in publishing and labour law.[68] The offices were computerized, the USPI website[69] became a reference point for members, and free consultations were offered in various areas, including editorial marketing and copyright.[70]

USPI also increased the number of services for its members, evidenced by the rise in consultations, from 253 to 450 monthly between 2001 and 2002.[70] The 12th edition of the "Guida della Stampa Periodica Italiana" (Guide to the Italian Periodical Press) was updated and enriched, providing essential support to publishers.[71]

Dialogue with the government continued to obtain postal concessions and bureaucratic facilities for small publishers, ensuring that the reform responded to the sector's needs.[66] In 1999, Francesco Saverio Vetere addressed the reform of postal rates,[72] which proposed replacing traditional concessions with a reduced reimbursement system. Vetere worked with political forces to postpone the reform until 2003, safeguarding small publishers from severe economic difficulties.[73]

The USPI membership base grew thanks to annual registration campaigns, with 400 new periodicals enrolled in 2000.[74] Furthermore, the "USPI Library" and a new auditorium for meetings and conferences were inaugurated, helping to strengthen the association's cultural and professional identity.[75]

In 2000, USPI organized a Forum in Frascati[63] to discuss the future of local publishing in the era of the Internet. The event saw the participation of institutional and publishing sector representatives, addressing the challenges and opportunities of the telematic revolution. It was evident that the Internet offered unique potential for interactivity and pluralism, but also new problems, such as uncertainty over advertising revenue. The debate demonstrated cautious interest from small publishers, who feared the costs and risks associated with the digital.[76]

The year 2001 saw a growth in websites and online publications, but many publishers maintained a cautious position, often returning to printed products in the face of scant online advertising revenue.[77] The situation reflected a tension between innovation and tradition, with small publishers careful to balance the risks of the digital and the difficulties of traditional print.

In subsequent years, the comparison between digital and paper publishing centered on the free availability of content.[78] With the advent of the Internet, many access and connection services became free, challenging paid newspapers. The printed press responded with the free-press phenomenon,[79] which had immediate success due to the quality of content and advertising returns, considered more in terms of contacts than actual readers.

Simultaneously, USPI committed to promoting the Italian periodical press worldwide, signing a memorandum of understanding in 2002 with FUSIE (Federazione Unitaria Stampa Italiana all’Estero - Unitary Federation of Italian Press Abroad) to create the "Coordinamento mondiale della Stampa Periodica Italiana" (World Coordination of the Italian Periodical Press).[80] This body aimed to support the Italian press abroad and improve communication for Italian emigrant communities, especially in view of their voting rights.[81]

USPI has a long history of internationalization through exhibitions and conferences, promoting Italian cultural pluralism. Significant events included press exhibitions in Warsaw and conferences in Europe and China, which consolidated the role of the Italian press as a tool for dialogue and global cultural promotion.[82]

The 2010s and 2020s

During these years, the Italian publishing sector underwent profound transformations, influenced by the advent of the digital era, regulatory changes, and economic challenges. USPI played a crucial role in this context, adapting to new dynamics and supporting publishers in navigating an ever-evolving media landscape.[83]

The emergence of online publishing and USPI's action

At the beginning of the 2000s, USPI recognized the growing importance of online publishing.[84][85] Although digital periodicals were not yet on par with traditional journalistic products, it was evident that the future of information would be dominated by the web.[86] At the time, access to online information was limited by the lack of devices such as smartphones, but USPI already hoped for regulations that would protect and support new digital media, including the provision of financial contributions to promote quality and accessibility of information.[87]

The path towards parity between traditional and digital publishing was long and hindered by lobbying interests aimed at keeping public funding concentrated on large publishing groups.[84] USPI decided to include online periodicals within the association,[88] collaborating with new publishers to better understand the dynamics of the digital world and adapt its strategies.[89]

This transformation led to the birth of numerous online periodicals, both local[90] and national, of high quality. However, many niche newspapers, migrating online, lost their registered periodical status, since in the digital world there was no registration requirement as for traditional publishing.[91] This led to a redefinition of the number of registered periodicals in the traditional periodical press.[92]

With the advent of blogs, social platforms, and podcasts with journalistic content not subject to registration, USPI recognized the need to also represent these new forms of information.[93] It emphasized to publishers the importance of applying economic and regulatory treatments compliant with journalistic contracts, regardless of the distribution medium.[94] In this context, the FIGEC CISAL – USPI journalistic contract[95] was signed in 2023, designed to meet the needs of an ever-evolving sector.

The new FIGEC CISAL – USPI National Collective Bargaining Agreement

In February 2023, USPI and FIGEC CISAL (Federazione Italiana Giornalismo, Editoria e Comunicazione - Italian Federation of Journalism, Publishing and Communication)[96] signed a new National Collective Bargaining Agreement for journalists.[95] This agreement, the result of collaboration between the journalists' union and the publishers' association, recognizes the changing needs of the publishing world and seeks to respond to the problems of workers in the sector.[97]

The FIGEC CISAL-USPI contract introduces some innovations, first of all salary increases: with retroactive effect from 1 January 2023, salary increases of over 5% were provided for all workers, recognizing the value of their contribution in a transforming sector.[98] The CCNL introduces new recognized and regulated professional figures, such as editor-in-chief, correspondent and Vatican expert, in addition to figures related to digital media and multimedia platforms.[99] It also expands worker protections and rights with contributions for complementary pensions, free supplementary health insurance via ENBIC[100] and permits for professional development and the acquisition of training credits. The CCNL also values inclusion and respect for diversity, with specific provisions to respect religious holidays of cults other than Catholicism and, for the first time, Easter Sunday was included among the recognized holidays.[101] Finally, the CCNL renews the agreement on self-employment, guaranteeing a minimum economic treatment for coordinated and continuous collaborators and introducing a guarantee clause for the proportional payment of services.[102]

Legislative challenges and the future of publishing subsidies

Parallel to the internal transformations of the sector,[103] Italian publishing had to contend with regulatory changes that called into question public support for the sector.[104] Law No. 145/2018, known as the 2019 Budget Law, promoted by the former Undersecretary for Information and Publishing, Vito Crimi, provided for the progressive elimination of public subsidies to publishing over four years.[105] The so-called "Crimi clause" provided for a gradual decrease in funding until its total suppression.[106][107]

Despite the change of officials at the Department for Information and Publishing,[108] no one has repealed the provision; only postponements have been granted to delay its implementation.[109] This situation has created uncertainty in the sector, as public subsidies represent a fundamental source of support, especially for medium-small publishing entities.[110]

USPI has observed these developments with concern, recognizing the importance of public support that fosters pluralism of information and diversity of voices in the Italian media landscape.[111] The Union is also present in the main tools for communication, information, press office and public relations activities such as Agenda del Giornalista,[112] Media Address[113] and Dati e tariffe pubblicitarie.[114]

Since 2021 it has also been registered, as an organization, in the EU Transparency Register,[115] a database of specific interest groups whose aim is to influence the legislative and policy-making process of European institutions.

Future prospects and the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Looking to the future, the publishing sector faces new challenges related to technological innovation.[116] Artificial Intelligence is emerging as a factor that could further transform the way information is produced and distributed.[117] While not believing that AI can completely replace traditional journalism, it is plausible that it could influence the number of journalists employed and the skills required.[118]

USPI, recognizing the changes that technology has always brought to human work, promotes a proactive approach, aimed at seizing the opportunities offered by AI and integrating new technologies in a way that enriches information without sacrificing its quality.[119]
