Va bene, ma l’articolo anche` sembra simplicmente scrivere “L’economia italiana รจ cresciuta” . . . immagino che probabilmente vuol dire la stessa cosa che intende in Inglese.
The thing is, in English too, economist use the term “the economy” in a way that seems to me like propaganda vocabulary, and always with the idea that whatever that means, it’s “good” for everyone, but your question shows one way in which that’s certainly not always true. The financial situation for many did not grow.
For example, here is a whole article about “the economy” “growing” which starts out insisting that’s good and that everyone should want it, but then waltzes through various metaphors, never defining what it means.
Is it the same thing they mean when by “gross domestic product”?
Whatever they mean, it seems very clear that only some people are actually benefiting from the GDP, or “the economy”, and that most of the benefit is to very rich people and corporations.
In any case, here is an article which does seem to indicate in passing immediately that GDP is what is meant by economic growth, and goes on to discuss the relationship between that and inflation, at least according to its perspective. I expect this answers the question here.
