Fiscal policy response of local governments to floods in Italy
No full textThis paper aims at empirically testing the dynamics of budget outcomes of Italian municipalities in the aftermath of floods, by accounting for heterogeneous levels of resilience and vulnerability to natural disasters. Our findings, based on a dynamic difference-in-difference after propensity score matching, point to substantial impacts in terms of increased capital expenditure and revenues from transfer, which also depend on the degree of resilience and vulnerability. Through our analysis we account for multiple aspects of risk so we can support policy decisions related to both ex-ante and ex-post disaster occurrence management

Peer to Consumer Lending
No full textPeer to consumer lending represents an alternative form of financing characterized, within
the crowdfunding genus, by the collecting of credit offers to be matched with borrowing demand through a digital platform. The essay focuses on legal analysis of some aspects of the
structure and the functioning of lending marketplaces operating in the sector at stake. The
Author argues how this business model – especially when the phenomenon involves consumers and, more generally, non-professionals counterparts – may be critical as regards to the
classical cathegories and concepts ruling the lending/borrowing discourse
La proposta di regolamento MiCA e la disciplina delle pratiche commerciali scorrette
No full textThe most part of European and domestic supervisory authorities have underlined the likelihood
that either the issuing and the negotiation of cryptoassets may be the final outcome of
unfair and deceptive commercial practices. The discipline laid down by the Directive 2005/29/
CE – now expressely recalled by the MiCAR Proposal – seems to be crucial for the best functioning
of the market at stake. The Author stresses how the interplay between «horizontal»
and «vertical» measures needs the interpreters play a pivotal role, in order to grant the best
understanding of the circumstances of the case as well as the best using of the «professional
diligence» general clause
Disciplina generale delle obbligazioni e sovraindebitamento
No full textThe essay compares the law of obligations and the
law of over-indebtedness with the aim of examining whether and to what extent
they interact. To this end, the Author highlights the diversity of assumptions and
effects -which is first and foremost a diversity of perspective-between them and
then clarifies their relationship in terms of alternativity and self-sufficiency. On
these premises, it is argued that despite the reported differences, the over-indebtedness rules are capable of changing the face of the obligation in more than
one respect. In particular, the possibility of a fresh start offered to “any debtor”
undermines the idea of an essentially enforceable bond and marks the demise
of the Civil Code obligation as the prototype of market relations
Technical and Economic Efficiency of Vine Pruning: Results of Experimental Trials of Some Cultivars of Grapevine Grown in Sicily and Determination of Break-even Point
No full textThe research presents the results carried out on Sicilian viticulture in order to study the economic
sustainability of the agricultural company. In particular, the author examined the operation of dry pruning and tying
of the fruiting head in espalier vineyards with tools that facilitate the work. The economic analysis highlights that
equipping yourself with mechanical tools that facilitate work is convenient for both large and small wineries. The results
of the research highlight that the investment to facilitate pruning and tying in Guyot-trained vineyards can also be made
by wine-growing companies and is increasingly convenient as the area under vines involved increases
