Itália: esquerda convertida à defesa do capital sofre derrota histórica para ultra-direita
2001
Itália. Abril de 1996. Aquele que fora o maior partido comunista do Ocidente vence as eleições italianas. O Partido da Refundação Comunista, nascido quando o PCI mudara de nome – Partido dos Democratas de Esquerda, PDS –, assumindo-se social-democrata, apoiara, de fora, a coligação. A vitória era completa, ao fim de seis meses de governo de Berlusconi, desorganizado por greves contra as privatizações, cortes sociais etc. Romano Prodi, em menos de dois anos, saneou as finanças, dobrou a inflação, relançou as exportações. Para realizar o milagre, comprimiu salários, cortou investimentos, privatizou bens públicos, causou graves seqüelas sociais. O governo de centro-esquerda dependia do apoio d…
Capitale territoriale e partenariato pubblico-privato: un'analisi dei fattori locali di successo
2011
Al centro di una possibile tassonomia del capitale territoriale si collocano le reti di cooperazione ed, in particolare, i servizi in partenariato pubblico-privato (PPP) che rappresentano beni e servizi ad un intermedio livello di materialità e rivalità. Questa categoria di beni consente di sfruttare le complementarietà tra pubblico e privato e, attraverso un complesso meccanismo di distribuzione del rischio e dei profitti tra i soggetti coinvolti, di accrescere l’efficienza complessiva dei progetti di investimento. Nel presente lavoro sono state analizzate le possibili determinanti territoriali degli esiti dei bandi di PPP promossi in Italia. Tali determinanti riguardano aspetti relativi a…

Family business internationalization: an insight into opportunities and challenges.
2020
The theme of internationalization in family businesses is a highly topical issue that is increasingly attracting management scholars. This is because, in addition of being a particular type of business (Alcorn, 1982), they play a central role in most economies worldwide. Accounting for 65-80 percent of all the world’s firms, they generate around 70-90 percent of annual global GDP, and are the source of 50-80 percent of new jobs in most countries. Their essence lies in the close bond they have with their founders and above all, in the family’s involvement in the business ownership and management (Franco and Prata, 2019). This bond may prove to be a limit for fuelling internationalization pro…
