A balanced score card approach to measuring the impact of tourism
The nature of tourism and the spheres of activity relevant to managing it are changing both in character and in scope. A “territorial space”, which is not defined simply by geographical boundaries, but also by physical and intangible as well as actual and virtual boundaries is offered as a framework within which to conceptualize and approach planning and managing tourism in the newly evolved reality, and the BSC is as an effective tool for facilitating the implementation of a new approach in evaluating and studying the impacts of tourism. The “territory” concept could serve well as an organizing principle in this research and the Italian experiment on tourism districts will provide an ideal…

AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT: A STUDY ABOUT POLARIZATION AND DISTRIBUTION DYNAMICS
Distorsioni nel ricordo della spesa dei turisti: alcune evidenze empiriche
The paper presents some remarks about the distortion of survey data that occurs when tourists are asked to recall the amount of their expenditure for the holiday. The difference between the concepts of perceived expenditure and reminded expenditure is stressed through a review of the relevant literature. An econometric analysis of PRIN 2007 survey data is then presented, with the aim of estimating the personal characteristics of the respondents that are most likely to do errors in remembering their expenditure.
LA VICENDA DEL PARTENARIATO EUROMEDITERRANEO: PROSPETTIVE E PERCORSI DI INTEGRAZIONE
Countries agreeing to Euro-Mediterranean Partnership show different levels of development, so that they are far from converging in per capita GDP growth rates. As shown by literature, an important role in growth can be played by foreign direct investment (FDI). Beta and Sigma approaches to convergence are applied to prove the absence of gaps reduction in the area, and the importance of FDI in a context where less developed countries do not attract FDI as much as other developing countries, Persistency matrix and fuzzy clustering methods are then applied to verify the composition and stability in time of ''convergence club''

On rural development of NUTS 2 and 3: a non parametric approach of distribution dynamics analysis
This work presents a study about dynamics of territorial gaps in agriculture between EU NUTS 2 and 3 from three perspectives: agricultural production model, rural development and productivity. Our choice of methodology is driven by two considerations. First of all, different performances in agriculture of EU areas may lead to multimodal distributions of indicators, and this implies that no significant average behaviour a parametric estimates refers to can be identified. Secondly, even if one wants to highlight multimodality within distributions, techniques like univariate density estimates can not catch intra-distribution dynamics which lead to the formation of "poles" of units showing a "s…
The territories of tourism: a reflection about the experience of the Tourist Districts (Local Tourism Systems) in Sicily
The tourist district is an important tool for territorial governance of regional tourism. The district is a type of Local System which is characterized by its multidimensionality, as well as the spatial contiguity of traders who belong to it. The territory is a space transformed by social interactions and relations of production: it is therefore the indispensable reference for measuring the impact of tourism. A bottom up approach in the process of identification of the districts is therefore vital. A Balance Score Card-approach is desirable to correctly manage this process. This study is a preliminary analysis derived from direct experience of the Sicilian tourist districts, recently formed…

Distributed <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="TeX">$n$</tex-math></inline-formula>-Player Approachability and Consensus in Coalitional Games
We study a distributed allocation process where, at each time, every player: i) proposes a new bid based on the average utilities produced up to that time, ii) adjusts such allocations based on the inputs received from its neighbors, and iii) generates and allocates new utilities. The average allocations evolve according to a doubly (over time and space) averaging algorithm. We study conditions under which the average allocations reach consensus to any point within a predefined target set even in the presence of adversarial disturbances. Motivations arise in the context of coalitional games with transferable utilities (TU) where the target set is any set of allocations that makes the grand …
The polarization of European agriculture: spatial and dynamic features within a non parametric framework
We present a study of the polarization of European agriculture at NUTS2 regional level. The analysis of selected indicators focuses on spatial and dynamic features of distributions. We make use of the non parametric technique of stochastic kernel which allows to explore the features of a whole distribution and to point out the clustering of statistical units.

Stochastic kernel and conditioning schemes: a study about the influence of spatial factor on agriculture of EU NUTS2
Besides to be an useful methodology for the detection of distribution dynamics of indicators, stochastic kernel has been generalized to a regression-like rationale (Quah, 1997). The latter allows to determine how a distribution is influenced by a "factor", through a "conditioning scheme" which is a set of rules stating how the original distribution is altered in order to obtain its "conditioned" version. This paper aims to study the influence of the "spatial factor" on distributions of selected agriculture impact indicators across EU NUTS2. The present work offers an empirical analysis of dynamics of selected indicators of agriculture across NUTS2. Our scope is to give an overlook of EU ter…

Distributed n-player approachability via time and space average consensus
Abstract In this paper we consider repeated coalitional games with transferable utilities (TU) over networks. Namely, we consider a set of n players that have to distribute among themselves a vector of rewards (one for each player). In our network version there is no coordinator allocating the rewards, but the agents have to agree on a common time-averaged vector by updating the local estimates of the reward vector. The common time-averaged reward vector has to approach a suitable constraint set, called core of the game, that guarantees that no agents benefit from quitting the grand coalition. We propose a doubly (over time and space) averaging distributed algorithm. At every iteration, eac…

Local Tourism System in Sicily: a proposal for the identification through spatial classification with the constraints of contiguity
The theoretical approach to Tourism Economics is based on the systemic nature of tourism, stemming both from the heterogeneity of the tourist package and from the existing complex interactions among destinations, firms, tourists. The systemic nature of tourism and the identification with its geographical representation, that is the destination, introduce the concept of Local Tourist System (LTS). This systemic nature has also been recognized by the Italian legislation by creating of an economic policy instrument, named Local Tourist System: “We call local tourist systems, homogeneous or integrated tourist environments, which include territories belonging even to different regions characteri…

Sistemi Turistici Locali in Sicilia: un approccio all’identificazione
Molti interventi di politica economica finalizzati allo sviluppo locale assumono come riferimento il territorio. Tale affermazione all’apparenza scontata esprime un concetto fondamentale, non è possibile né tanto meno auspicabile, formulare strategie è percorsi di sviluppo per una data area senza un’analisi approfondita del territorio delle sue caratteristiche, dei suoi punti di forza e di debolezza. In più è determinante che all’analisi segua la sintesi, intesa come momento di individuazione dello specifico contesto geografico cui destinare gli sforzi di programmazione. Il contributo che si vuole fornire al dibattito sui Sistemi Turistici Locali è relativo all’individuazione di aree omogen…

Measuring the impact of tourism: a 'territorial' approach
The nature of tourism and the spheres of activity relevant to managing it are changing both in character and in scope. Consequently, traditional statistical and management information resources are not adequate for effective tourism planning and for tourism impact evaluation because they are deficient both in scope and focus. To adapt to the evolving nature of tourism and realize the full value creation potential for all stakeholders, planners, managers and operators must adopt a new conceptualization of the “space” over which relevant tourism related activities occur and over which these activities must therefore be comprehended and managed. A “territorial space”, which is not defined simp…
