Book The Oxford Handbook of the Italian Economy Since Unification

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of the Italian Economy Since Unification written by Gianni Toniolo and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2013-01-04 with total page 802 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Oxford Handbook provides a fresh overall view and interpretation of the modern economic growth of one of the largest European countries, whose economic history is less known internationally than that of other comparably large and successful economies. It will provide, for the first time, a comprehensive, quantitative "new economic history" of Italy. The handbook offers an interpretation of the main successes and failures of the Italian economy at a macro level, the research--conducted by a large international team of scholars --contains entirely new quantitative results and interpretations, spanning the entire 150-year period since the unification of Italy, on a large number of issues. By providing a comprehensive view of the successes and failures of Italian firms, workers, and policy makers in responding to the challenges of the international business cycle, the book crucially shapes relevant questions on the reasons for the current unsatisfactory response of the Italian economy to the ongoing "second globalization." Most chapters of the handbook are co-authored by both an Italian and a foreign scholar.

Book Entrepreneurship  Polycentrism  and Elites

Download or read book Entrepreneurship Polycentrism and Elites written by Carlo Carboni and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a cross-section of the over all Italian development. Italy can be considered a microcosm that contains all the imbalances and territorial differences that can be observed in the European macro-areas. Its north can now be considred integrated with the more developed European continental shelf. The Centre represents a local development in transition to a more visible technological change. The late south risks accumulating more socio-economic backwardness. For these reasons, we believe this volume is useful, with just a few pages presenting one of the most interesting cases of local industrial development, outside the mainstream of the industrial economy which saw in Fordism and Taylorism the best way for industrializaion. Here, on the contrary, it is argued that big fish cannot always consume the smallest one that flickers faster and its flexibility, that has social roots, can be an advantage in global markets. Technology appears to be the key to the future. Please note: This title is co-published with Aakar Books, New Delhi.

Book The Impact of the Economic Crisis on the Territorial Capital of Italian Regions

Download or read book The Impact of the Economic Crisis on the Territorial Capital of Italian Regions written by Cristina Brasili and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recent worldwide economic crisis requires a new focus on the theoretical framework of analysis of local development. Particular attention has been devoted to the study of the role of territories, no longer conceived as pure geographic spaces, but rather an important resource that can generate externalities that favor local territorial competitiveness. Key concepts such as the "industrial district" by the Italian scholars (Becattini, 1990; Sforzi, 1991; Signorini, 2004), the Marshallian "production cluster" (Marshall, 1920) and the French districts industriels (Guégan e Rousier, 1989) highlighted the centrality of the intangible factors, peculiar to some territories, adding to the traditional production factors. The concept of "territorial capital", that has become popular both among policy makers (European Commission, 2005) and scholars (Camagni, 2008; Capello et al., 2010), embodies these theories and suggests an innovative framework of analysis and measure of the assets that make a region attractive and competitive. In the Italian social and economic context, characterized by its regional specificities and excellences, it is particularly important to leverage these assets to boost the economy both at local and national level. In this paper, the authors provide a measure of the main components of territorial capital in the Italian regions, so as to provide a useful means for designing effective public development policies, which are now required to take territorial differences into major account. The possible structural effects of the last economic crisis on the regional endowment of territorial capital are also investigated. Taking the main dimensions of territorial capital (productive, cognitive, social, relational, environmental, settlement and infrastructural assets) identified by Camagni and Dotti (2010) as a starting point, several synthetic indexes are built, that measure those assets for all Italian regions. The impact of economic crisis on these dimensions is evaluated thanks to a dynamic analysis of the synthetic indexes, covering the period between 1995 and 2009. The main elements of discontinuity are also highlighted. This analysis has two main goals: on the one hand, to show a coincident and clear picture of the potential of Italian regions in terms of territorial capital in a comparative framework; on the other hand, the recent developments of Italian regions are described with respect to the structural effects of economic crisis on their territorial capital.

Book Innovation  Socio Institutional Conditions and Economic Growth in the Italian Regions

Download or read book Innovation Socio Institutional Conditions and Economic Growth in the Italian Regions written by Giorgio d'Agostino and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper carries out an explanatory investigation into the relationship between social and institutional contextual factors and economic growth in the Italian regions. We construct a three-sector semi-endogenous growth model with negative externalities depending on social and institutional variables that affect the innovative capacity of regional economic systems. The empirical investigation confirms the presence of non-linearities depending on socio-institutional conditions that constitute constraints on the translation of innovation into economic growth. The paper suggests that policies targeted primarily on the upgrading of collective services, starting with education, and the enhancement of local socio-institutional conditions, have major repercussions on the economic growth of the lagging southern regions as well as of the Italian economy as a whole.

Book Economic Growth and Dualism in Italian Regions

Download or read book Economic Growth and Dualism in Italian Regions written by Cristina Brasili and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The topic of regional economics and business cycles has attracted increasing attention in recent years. However, an analysis of the dynamics and the features of economic growth in different areas is hampered by the fact that official Italian GDP statistics at the regional level are not updated and have only an annual frequency. For this reason, we considered a high frequency and easily updatable Indicator of Regional Economic Activity that provides information on different dimensions of local business cycles and thus can be useful to policy makers. We propose a spatiotemporal hierarchical model of regional economic growth that isolates different sources of variability.
