110Napolitano's seven years term has contributed to reinforce those interpretative trendsthat contribute to widening the powers of the President of the Republic. The formation ofMonti's government signalled the apex of the president's ability to influence the politicaldirection of the country. Nonetheless this event is linked to extraordinary circumstancesand cannot provide general epistemic criteria able to describe the ordinary role of the presidency.To this purpose, the approach adopted by this essay appears more useful. Indeed,this paper analyzes the contribution of the Head of State in the field of legislative activityand foreign and defence policy. Napolitano's mandate demonstrates that the president hasacquired a «plebiscitary-charismatic legitimacy», mainly in the field of political communication, that allows the presidency great leverage with government and political parties.However, the President's political influence is not derived from political parties, but it israther inherent to the function, therefore the so-called «theory of communicating vessels»,that defines the political power of the president as inversely proportional to that of thegovernment, becomes inadequate. It is thus reasonable to expect, in the future, harsherconflicts between the government and the President of the Republic to arise.
