F. Garanzini, E. Destefanis, R. Fusco, M. Licata, Vercelli. Chiesa concattedrale di S. Maria Maggiore Indagini bioarcheologiche
Il contributo presenta i risultati delle indagini bioarcheologiche condotte presso il cimitero ipogeo della chiesa di Santa Maria Maggiore a Vercelli, ove, negli anni Settanta del XVIII secolo vennero trasferiti i resti delle sepolture della prossima chiesa di Santa Maria, già chiesa episcopale della città in età paleocristiana e abbattuta proprio in quegli anni. Nuove inumazioni vennero quindi a popolare questo nucleo funerario, almeno sino alla prima metà del XIX secolo. Lo studio, di taglio interdisciplinare, coniuga riflessioni archeologiche e antropologiche, gettando luce su un aspetto poco noto dell'archeologia post-medievale nel Piemonte Orientale
E. Destefanis, S. Bocchio, F. Pondrano, "Archeologia dei monasteri nel Piemonte orientale in età medievale. I casi studio di S. Genuario di Lucedio a Crescentino e S. Eufemia a Tortona"
Il contributo presenti i risultati delle recenti ricerche condotte sui monasteri di San Genuario di Lucedio e di Santa Eufemia a Tortona, entrambi di fondazione altomedievale. Attraverso la disamina delle fonti scritte, cartografiche e materiali, si propone un quadro delle vicende costruttive dei due complessi monastici, in particolare a seguito dell'analisi stratigrafica delle murature, attualmente databili, in entrambi i casi, a partire dall'età romanica
I.4 Possedimenti di Novalesa secondo il testamento di Abbone (in collaborazione con S. Uggé)
"Oggetti liturgici e devozionali", in A. CIANCIOSI, L. DE FERRI, E. DESTEFANIS, C. MOINE, G. POJANA, D. VALLOTO, «Culti e reliquie»
Il contributo è oncentrato sul alcuni oggetti liturgici e devozionali che fanno parte del tesoro dell'abbazia nonantolana. Si tratta di reliquiari/portaostie e pissidi in legno, di una tavoletta lignea dipinta e di un castone con decorazione a filigrana, la cui tipologia ornamentale e il cui sistema di fissaggio rimanda a produzioni irlandesi di età altomedievale. I materiali sono presentati analiticamente, mentre una parte conclusiva ne discute contesti e funzion
Public capital and total factor productivity: New evidence from the Italian regions, 1970–98
Destefanis S. and Sena V. (2005) Public capital and total factor productivity: new evidence from the Italian regions, 1970–98, Regional Studies 39 , 603–618. This paper analyses the relationship between industrial total factor productivity and public capital across the 20 Italian administrative regions. It adds upon the existing literature in a number of ways: it analyses a longer period (1970–98); it allows for the role of human capital accumulation; it tests for the existence of a long‐run relationship between total factor productivity and public capital (through previously suggested panel techniques) and for weak exogeneity of public capital; and it assesses the significance of public capital within a non‐parametric set‐up based on the Free Disposal Hull. The results confirm that public capital has a significant impact on the evolution of total factor productivity, particularly in the Southern regions. This impact is mainly ascribed to the core infrastructures (road and airports, harbours, railroads, water and electricity, telecommunications). Also, core infrastructures are weakly exogenous.Total factor productivity, Public capital accumulation, Long‐run relationship, Non‐parametric frontiers, Productivité globale des facteurs de production, Accumulation du capital public, Rapport à long terme, Frontières non‐paramétriques, Gesamtfaktorenproduktivität, Ansammlung öffentlichen, Kapitals, Langjährige, Beziehung, Nicht‐parametrische, Grenzen, Productividad total factorial, Acumulación de capital público, Relación duradera, Fronteras no paramétricas, JEL classifications: O40, R11, R53,
The Productivity of Volunteer Labour: DEA-based Evidence from Italy
This paper analyses the relatively novel concept of a downward-sloping demand for volunteer labour, using data from the Italian social services sector. Both descriptive and econometric evidence shows that the price of volunteer labour (proxied by its shadow price obtained through DEA) is negatively related to the number of volunteer hours. Furthermore, the demand for volunteer labour is higher in areas relatively well endowed with social capital, where there is also evidence that organizations refrain from substituting volunteers for paid workers when the latter become more expensive. This finding has some relevance for the debate on economic and social convergence across European regions

Student geographical mobility and labor market outcomes: evidences from Italy
The aim of this thesis is to discover the association between geographical mobility and labour
markets outcomes of Italian early graduates.
Even if is an argument widely trated in literature, I'll try to investigate the evolution of the
\Brain Drain" process in light of recents event: the nancial crisis of 2007-2008 and the cut back
in higher education.
Migration decisions are closely related to degree of social mobilty in a country, especially where
there are strong interregionals dierences as in Italy where, analyse migration path evolution of
human capital might be very useful to policy makers intent to reduce regional gaps and improve
the \equality of opportunity" level.
Take into account migration endogeneity, the results suggest a positive eect of spatial mobility
on economic performance with dierences according to movement trajectories. However
some limits, due also to the lack of adequate data, indicate that further researchs are necessary
in order to identify a causal relation.
The thesis is strutured as follows: the rst chapter explains push and pull factros related to
migration and the connection with social mobility, wage inequality and regional development.
The chapter two presents an estimation of the return to geographical mobility of early graduates
wages while the third chapter present the estimation of return from geographical mobility in
terms of employment condition using a dataset summarizing information coming from three
dierent sources: Almalaurea, Infostud and Ministry of Labor
