    Full text link
    In a period of repeated economic crises, access to traditional credit channels for those unable to provide personal or capital guarantees has proved particularly complex. Among the possible ways to limit the damage of the crisis, the Region of Sardinia has identified support for entrepreneurship - and in particular micro-entrepreneurship - as the most important way to foster the creation of new jobs, both in traditional and innovative sectors. The authority has deemed it appropriate to change course in favour of business creation through a special form of interest-free microcredit, which replaces the traditional grant. At the time of its creation in 2009, the ESF Microcredit Fund constituted a radical policy innovation, which entailed a major discontinuity with previous practices. It was an important and courageous decision, taken in a context heavily marked by the unfavourable socio-economic situation. This article presents the main results of the analysis of the ESF Microcredit, describing the mechanisms of genesis and implementation of the policy and finally describing the main effects of the ESF Microcredit on the beneficiaries and the socio-economic context

    In this article we engage with the extensive literature that relates political behaviour to territorial and economic variables. More specifically, our article highlights how much electoral behaviour and the choice to participate in elections is influenced by economic factors and, above all, if and to what extent the economic factors are influenced by the variables linked to the geographical position of the units of analysis. To reach this aim, we conducted an analysis, based on aggregate data, focused on the political behaviour recorded in the 377 Sardinian municipalities during four elections: the 2006, 2008, 2013 and 2018 parliamentary elections. The Sardinian case is of enormous interest due to the rural prevalence of its territory and the profound difference between the socio-economic structure of the coastal areas and that of the internal areas. The article shows how, while controlling for the geographic location of the municipalities and their demographic structure, the unemployment rate remains by far the most important variable in explaining political behaviour

    This article investigates some rural welfare practices in the Sardinia region, afflicted by depopulation, economic crisis and reduction of public and social services, exploring the results of a qualitative research on some case studies. Key aspects of these experiences include (i) the centrality of multifunctional farms within nested markets; (ii) the role of social innovators who become hubs for networks; (iii) the ability of local institutions to operate as institutional entrepreneurs
