    It is often said that if more women were at the helm of foreign policy, there would be more peace in the world. However, and despite the fact that women have played important roles, there is little research about the actual foundations of this claim. While female leadership is increasingly gaining momentum, women involved in International Relations-related jobs, be it in academia, diplomacy, international organizations, government or international business, are still facing more difficulties than in other areas in climbing the seniority ladder. Also, despite evidence of women's role in the diplomatic and international arena, the core historical narrative of international politics remained depleted of women.1 This article will review the status of women in International Relations (IR), discuss the main reasons why breaking the glass ceiling is more difficult in international relations than in other areas, and what can be done to change the situation

    The book is divided in two parts: • History of European integration: particular emphasis is put on the actors and their motivations. We tried to highlight the continuing tensions, characterizing the European integration process since the beginning, between the followers of the “community method” and the advocates of the national State’s predominance, a debate that has seen political scientists divided between scholars of (European) supranationality and of liberal intergovernamentalism. • Functioning of the EU institutions: in dealing with the EU institutional framework we highlighted in particular the changes occurred along the years, following the revisions of the original Treaties.

    Design and management of logistic networks is one of the most critical issues in supply chain management. However, the literature does not contain any effective models, methods, and applications that simultaneously support management decisions in the strategic design of the distribution system, in the operational planning and organization of vehicles, and in container trips organization adopting different modes of transportation. The aim of this paper is to illustrate an original framework for the design and optimization of a multi echelon and multi level production/distribution system that combines mixed-integer linear programming modeling with cluster analysis, heuristic algorithms, and optimal transportation rules. A significant case study is illustrated revealing the effectiveness of the approach and tools proposed
