This book was released on 2023-12-15 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research, carried out in original documents by the World Bank, which were intended exclusively for internal use and were made available to scholars only a few years ago, tackles the theme of the extraordinary intervention in Southern Italy from an international perspective. The book provides an updated view of the issues concerning the regions of Southern Italy, as well as the solutions proposed for the “Southern Question” during the years of the post-war reconstruction of Italy, creating the only period of convergence – considering the whole of the history of united Italy – between Southern and Northern Italy and between the entire country and the most advanced Western economies during the golden age. The volume enhances our understanding of such a decisive development phase, especially within the framework of both Italian and international economic history, following the peacetime rebuilding of Italy and before the crisis of the 1970s, while providing very useful elements in order to analyse the current events of both the Mezzogiorno and all of Italy.

Download or read book Structural Change Competitiveness and Industrial Policy written by Aurora Teixeira and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The onset of the global crisis has emphasised the persistence of substantial differences in development and social progress within the euro area. The specific case of countries located in the southern periphery region has come to the centre stage, due to the harsh economic conditions that all these countries have experienced in the recent past. In the aftermath of the American subprime credit bubble, these countries’ high indebtedness raised doubts as to their ability to sustain public finances, with the financial crisis developing and gaining momentum due to the fragilities presented in the economy. To varying degrees of severity, all of these economies have since been forced to introduce strong fiscal tightening programmes in order to achieve fiscal consolidation, which have translated into recession and rising unemployment. This book undertakes a comprehensive analysis of the causes of the crisis in southern European countries, showing that the ‘Achilles heel’ of these economies is rooted in the dismal evolution of productivity and in a specialisation pattern excessively based on the so-called ‘traditional’, low, and low-medium tech industries, which yield low margins, declining export shares and, ultimately, withering international competitiveness. Such evidence suggests that the southern European periphery industrial growth model has reached its limits, demanding a multidimensional policy approach capable of overcoming the magnitude and complexity of the present crisis. Without denying the need to adjust public and private balance sheets, it is argued that finding a sustainable path out of the present problems requires addressing the challenges of productivity growth and competitiveness in the long term.

Download or read book Perspectives on Strategic Change written by Luca Zan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-09-04 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Luca Zan, Stefano Zambon, Andrew M. Pettigrew This book has developed from an international research workshop organ ized by the Dipartimento di Economia e Direzione Aziendale, University of Venice, and the Centre for Corporate Strategy and Change, Warwick Business School, University of Warwick. The purpose of the workshop was to foster the growth of a European network of scholars and to help create a "European perspective" in studying strategic change. The ten chapters in this book were first presented in Venice in May 1991 and have been substantially revised since then. The ten commentaries on the chapters are in most cases substantial developments of the oral responses made at the workshop, as indeed is the final review chapter by Andrew Van de Ven. The theme of this book, the study of strategic change processes, remains as theoretically alive and empirically real in the 1990s as it did in the 1980s. For many organizations in the European and North American context, the 1980s was an era of radical change. In this respect there is a wide array of examples. Structural changes in old industries such as coal, shipbuilding, steel, and heavy engineering led to a great employment loss and the impoverishment of certain regional economies that had remained dependent on those industries. But it was not just the old industries that X INTRODUCTION experienced major change during the 1980s.

Book excerpt: Il volume ripropone dieci tra i principali scritti e discorsi di Guido Carli nel triennio di presidenza della Confindustria, preceduti dalla ricerca dell&'Ente Einaudi sullo sviluppo economico guidata da Carli tra il 1975 e il 1976 e seguiti dalle sue memorie relative all&'esperienza confindustriale, pubblicate nel 1993. I testi forniscono una vasta documentazione della concezione di Carli sui modi di tutela degli interessi industriali attraverso l&'accettazione di un mercato aperto alla concorrenza (i cui tratti sono esposti nello Statuto dell&'impresa) nel quale la politica economica rafforza i contenuti di stimolo alla crescita e perde quelli assistenziali (come descritto nell&'Operazione sviluppo). L&'ampia introduzione curata da Paolo Savona analizza l&'esperienza di Carli come presidente della Confindustria dalla sua -anomala- elezione voluta da Gianni Agnelli nel 1976 al suo discorso di commiato nel 1980 e ai successivi anni vissuti come presidente degli industriali europei. Essa tratta della riorganizzazione gestionale degli uffici romani, con particolare riferimento al Centro studi, e dell&'impostazione politica data all&'organizzazione in uno dei momenti più difficili attraversati dall&'Italia e in vista del &"compromesso storico&".
