Origini ed evoluzione della politica di coesione: un exursus storico e comparativo delle programmazioni europee dal 1988 al 2020
No full textDalla fine degli anni Ottanta la politica di coesione rappresenta uno degli strumenti principali adottati
dall Unione europea per riequilibrare i divari esistenti tra le regioni dell Ue. Dal 2000 è organizzata in cicli
settennali e l impianto strategico generale di ciascun ciclo è definito dal documento di orientamento generale,
denominato Accordo di partenariato. La politica europea di coesione è stata finora un successo nei Paesi
dell Europa orientale, mentre la stessa cosa non si può dire negli Stati membri dell Europa meridionale (Italia
e Grecia) e sud-occidentale (Spagna e Portogallo). Dal 2001 abbiamo assistito ad un aumento del Pil pro capite
dei Paesi dell Est-Europa segnando un notevole avvicinamento alla media Ue, diversamente nei Paesi
dell Europa meridionale abbiamo verificato una dinamica di stagnazione. Questo processo, chiamato dagli
evidenza delle politiche di coesione. L intento di questo
lavoro è quello di tracciare un quadro storico dell evoluzione dell orientamento della politica europea,
soffermandosi particolarmente sulle programmazioni 2007-2013 e 2014-2020. In vista delle nuove sfide in
ottica Pnrr, bisogna avere un effettivo cambio di rotta nella gestione dei fondi Ue. L Italia non può più
permettersi il malfunzionamento della distribuzione delle risorse Ue, bisogna avere il coraggio di identificare
quei progetti che effettivamente possono rappresentare un volano di crescita per il Paese

No full textAs highlighted in systemic approaches to innovation, regions play an increasingly important role in designing and implementing place-based innovation policies. A wide debate has emerged on the limits and validity of different policy models, for example, between “platform” and “district-based” approaches or between a “corporatist” and an “evolutionary” Triple Helix. Within the EU Cohesion Policy framework, a number of technological districts (TDs) have been established since 2005 in the Italian “Convergence” regions to foster competitiveness, innovation, and research industry linkages. TDs have become critical actors in knowledge and technology transfer processes, and a significant amount of funding has been devoted to their development in the National Operational Programme for Research and Competitiveness (PON-R&C). In this work, we use methods drawn from social network analysis to locate TDs within the wider collaboration networks established through the PON-R&C programme. We highlight the specificity of TDs within the general policy and assess their ability to promote organisational and sectoral heterogeneity among project participants. We find that different network architectures coexist under the same policy umbrella and relate this variety to the ideal models identified in the literature
Environmental Awareness and Firm Creation
No full textForward-looking entrepreneurs drive firm creation. We hypothesize that more environmentally-conscious entrepreneurs will emerge as environmental awareness rises, increasing the number of green and energy firms. We test our prediction using Google trends data and a novel region-level data set from Italy. We find that not only the number of green and energy-innovative firms but also that of all innovative start-ups increases with rising environmental consciousness. Our results imply some "innovation spill-over" effects from green sectors to other industries with rising environmental awareness
Does gender affect environmentally virtuous behaviour? Evidence from selective waste collection
No full textThis research analyses the issue, unexplored to date, of the causal relationship between women politicians and selective waste collection. Differing attitudes towards environmental issues between men and women may affect waste management at the municipal level, so an increase in women's political representation can be expected to enhance the effectiveness of selective waste collection. The analysis tests for this in Italy, exploiting a gender quota measure (Law 215/2012) as an exogenous shock to the percentage of female municipal councilors. Difference-in-differences instrumental variable analysis finds that an increase of one standard deviation in the percentage of female councilors increases the percentage of selective waste collection by 2.18 percentage points and the total tonnage of selective waste by 447.86. At the same time it reduces the amount of non-selective waste collection by 491.22 tonnes. The study comprises a number of sensitivity analyses for different model specifications, different definitions of dependent variables, different size of municipalities and different geographical areas
