Awareness and stock market participation
The paper documents lack of awareness of financial assets in the 1995 and 1998 Bank of Italy Surveys of Household Income and Wealth. It then explores the determinants of awareness, and finds that the probability that survey respondents are aware of stocks, mutual funds and investment accounts is positively correlated with education, household resources, long-term bank relations and proxies for social interaction. Lack of financial awareness has important implications for understanding the stockholding puzzle and for estimating stock market participation costs. Klassifikation: E2, D8, G
Democratization and civic capital
We document a sharp reversal in electoral participation between the North and the South of Italy after the 1912 enfranchisement which extended voting rights from a limited élite to (almost) all adult males. When voting was restricted to the élite, electoral turnout was higher in the South but falls significantly below that in the North after the enfranchisement. Furthermore the new gap is never bridged over the following century and participation remains lower in the South despite the enrichment of democratic institutions and further extension of voting rights to the female population during the post war democratic republic. This pattern in the data is consistent with a simple model where individuals voting in political elections is affected by private benefits and by civic duty, only elites can grab private benefits from participation in politics and civic culture differs across communities. We also find that extension of voting rights to non-elites results in a significant transfer of power to their political organizations only among populations with a high sense of civic duties. Together with the very persistent gap in participation between North and South our findings suggest that democratization a process of concession of democratic rights can benefit non-elites only when the latter have already a high sense of civic capital and is unlikely to be a viable avenue for inducing norms of civic behavior

Laju Dekomposisi Serasah Daun Shorea guiso di Hutan Penelitian Dramaga, Bogor, Jawa Barat
Litter decomposition is a process of decomposing litter which is an important component of the nutrient cycle process because it can make a major contribution to soil fertility. The purpose of this study was to measure the decomposition rate of Shorea guiso leaf litter and soil organic matter content in the decomposition process of Shorea guiso leaf litter in the Dramaga Research Forest, Bogor, West Java. Decomposition of Shorea guiso leaf litter is carried out using a liiter bag measuring 30 cm x 40 cm. Each litter-bag contained 100 g of dry weight of Shorea guiso litter. The litterbag was then tied to a bamboo stake and placed under the Shorea guiso stand. The results of this study for 12 weeks showed that the average of leaf litter decomposition rate of Shorea guiso at the 1 week of observation was 0,003 and continued to increase until the 12 week of 0,2. The average weekly rate of decomposition of Shorea guiso leaf litter was 0,075 which grew on soils with moderate BOT content (3,87%).

Il "lungo '56". I rapporti tra partito adulto e gioventù comunista dalla destalinizzazione al Sessantotto: cultura politica, organizzazione, generazioni.
Democrazia della crisi. Pratiche e retoriche comuniste della delegittimazione nell'Italia degli anni Settanta
La coppia amico-nemico ha rappresentato un fondamento ideologico essenziale del pensiero e dell'azione comunista nel sistema politico dell'Italia repubblicana. Tra la politica dell'inimicizia assoluta e la tattica delle alleanze il legame era organico e strutturale. Il saggio analizza le origini di questa relazione e la sua radicale trasformazione nel contesto degli anni settanta, quando un nuovo paradigma di cultura politica del comunismo italiano cominciò a delinearsi, portando in primo piano la questione morale e l'idea di una rigenerazione della democrazia basata sulla dicotomia tra politica e società civile
