    On the severe forms of labour exploitation of migrant women in Italy: An intersectional policy analysis

    No full text
    Although the EU made significant efforts in fighting against human trafficking, the identified victims are still few compared to the estimated number of exploited persons. According to some scholars, the political discourse and mainstream narrative of human trafficking contributed to give enormous attention to sexual exploitation and to the understanding of female migrants as a category particularly vulnerable, so avoiding to represent the real nature, figures and reality of mixed migration flows. This contribution analyses the causes and consequences of this choice demonstrating, through the analysis of relevant literature and public policies, that the focus on some forms of exploitation has gendered the victims and the narrative on migration, thus reproducing discrimination against women rather than improving their human rights

    An Assessment of Carousel Value-Added Tax Fraud in The European Carbon Market

    The literature on the European Union Emission Trading System (EU ETS) is by now very rich. Much is known about the efficiency, the effectiveness, and the environmental and distributional impacts of the EU ETS. Less, however, is known about the carousel value-added-tax (VAT) fraud phenomena in the European carbon market. This article evaluates the welfare effects of carousel VAT fraud in the EU ETS using a computable general equilibrium (CGE) analysis. According to our findings, if VAT fraud occurs in the EU ETS, the effects on welfare for the EU Member States are negative, with welfare loss significantly higher than the VAT fraud value. This article also discusses the reverse charge mechanism that EU Member States could adopt to reduce the VAT fraud phenomena in the European carbon market
