The Determinants of Foreign Direct Investment and Labor Productivity in the Manufacturing Industry of Vietnam - The Firm-Level Data Evidence
2020
Foreign direct investment (FDI) has become an essential source for the economic growth and development of many developing countries. FDI can deliver financial capital, a strategic way to access the global market, a channel to transfer technology and skills to the host country. Many developing countries pay attention to attracting FDI as an important issue. The first objective of this study is to investigate the determinants of FDI in the manufacturing industry in Vietnam by finding out the differences in characteristics between FDI and local enterprises and then examining the business climate factors which affect the operations of foreign-invested firms.

The nature and impacts of environmental spillovers on housing prices: A spatial hedonic analysis
2014
Abstract: This paper investigates the spatial dimension of the environmental effects. We use recent advances in spatial econometrics to show that hedonic equations produce estimates to be differently interpreted as implicit prices according to spatial models. In particularly, the i mplicit price of housing attribute combines a feedback effect and a propagation effect and may be interpreted in terms of local or global spillovers. We drive an empirical study in the estuary of the Loire, a rural and urban area well occupied by various natural areas and more artificialized ones. We study various spatial interaction patterns to test the robustness of our estimates and we find that spatial depend…
School principals’ point of view on pupils’ participation
2021
La participación es un derecho que los niños y niñas deben tener la oportunidad de ejercer y la escuela es un escenario idóneo para que el alumnado pueda hacer oír su voz exponiendo ideas, tomando decisiones y formulando propuestas. Con el objetivo de detectar las opciones del alumnado de participar en el centro y apuntar vías para maximizarlas efectuamos un estudio a partir de un cuestionario elaborado ad hoc dirigido a todos y todas los directores y directoras de escuelas de Cataluña. En concreto, participaron 684 y los resultados indican que los niños y las niñas no solo opinan en clase, sino que toman decisiones cuando trabajan en grupo, en relación con la convivencia o votando sus prop…
Gli obblighi europei di tutela penale dell'ambiente tra responsabilità individuali e corporative. L'attuazione della direttiva 2008/99/CE in Italia, …
La tesi affronta il tema della tutela penale dell'ambiente in chiave europea, vero e proprio banco di prova per le possibilità e i limiti dell'armonizzazione europea dei sistemi penali degli Stati membri. La legislazione ambientale, invero, ha assunto un ruolo emblematico nel percorso che ha condotto alla progressiva estensione della competenza normativa europea al campo penale: è in tale campo di materia, infatti, che si è registrata per la prima volta l'adozione di direttive di armonizzazione penale. Ci si interroga, dunque, sull’ "effetto utile" degli obblighi di criminalizzazione promananti dal legislatore europeo sul fronte dell'armonizzazione delle legislazioni penali nazionali di set…
La dirigenza pubblica: criteri di identificazione e specialità della disciplina.
Nel tentativo di far luce sui maggiori coni d’ombra che emergono dalla relativa disciplina speciale del rapporto di lavoro, la tesi riflette l’esigenza di un ripensamento sistematico della figura del dirigente pubblico, nell’ottica di prospettare de iure condendo possibili correttivi. A tal fine, sono analizzate le peculiarità ed attribuzioni della dirigenza pubblica, in chiave storico-evolutiva, alla luce dei principi costituzionali e del processo riformatore che ha contrassegnato la magmatica materia, a tutt’oggi in atto. E’, altresì, rivolto uno sguardo comparativistico alla disciplina del personal directivo español, rivelandosi la stessa, speculare a quella del dirigente italiano quanto…

INCREASING COMPETITIVENESS AND JOBS THROUGH FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENTS
2013
After 3 years of collapse, foreign direct investments (FDI) have reached a minimum level of the last 9 years, in 2011, meaning 1, 94 billion Euros, below the 2003 level. In the first 10 months of 2012, foreign direct investments have reached a level of 1,27 billion Euros, surpassing the similar period last year, as the economic growth was centered around 0,5 %. At this time, foreign direct investments represent one third of the current account deficit. Romania is objectively reliant on foreign capital due to its low degree of internal saving. Investors have chosen the automotive industry in Romania, a sector deemed competitive, due to cheap labor force, large market and substantial state ai…

Climate-driven changes in winter abundance of a migratory waterbird in relation to EU protected areas
2015
AimSpecies are responding to climate change by changing their distributions, creating debate about the effectiveness of existing networks of protected areas. As a contribution to this debate, we assess whether regional winter abundances and distribution of the Smew Mergellus albellus, a migratory waterbird species listed on Annex I (EU Birds Directive) that overwinters exclusively in European wetlands, changed during 1990-2011, the role of global warming in driving distributional changes and the effectiveness of the network of Special Protection Areas (SPAs, EU Birds Directive) in the context of climate change.
