Sustainable Management of Tourist Flow Networks: A Mean Field Model

2023

In this article, we propose a mean field game approach for modeling the flows of excursionists within a network of tourist attractions. We prove the existence of an equilibrium within the network using a balance ordinary differential equation together with optimality conditions in terms of the value function. We also propose a bi-level formulation of the problem where we aim at achieving a sustainable-oriented control strategy in the upper level and at maximizing excursionists’ satisfaction in the lower level. Our proposed model may provide an effective management tool for local authorities who deal with the challenging problem of finding an optimal control policy to the often conflicting o…

Per gli antichi chiostri. Monache e badesse nella Palermo medievale

2020

Il libro inquadra la storia degli otto monasteri femminili fondati a Palermo tra l’XI e il XIV secolo sul piano sociale, economico e culturale, ricostruendo le vicende fondative, il patrimonio, il profilo di monache e badesse. All’atto della fondazione i monasteri ricevettero beni di diversa entità, concentrati nella città e nel territorio di Palermo, che divennero il principale cespite finanziario. Solo la metà dei monasteri ebbe in dotazione un feudo che forniva i prodotti agro-pastorali indispensabili per il fabbisogno interno. La monacazione era considerata la forma di esistenza più alta e perfetta; inoltre, le doti monastiche erano di gran lunga inferiori a quelle matrimoniali e consen…

Hacia la convergencia de las estadísticas de las finanzas públicas y la contabilidad pública en Europa a nivel central y local

2018

[EN] The main aim of this paper is to study the convergence between micro and macro systems of government accounting information, looking to contribute to the analysis of accounting harmonization process in the EU, as a tool to improve the comparability of financial, budgetary, and aggregated statistical reports, in order to improve social, political and economic decision-making and accountability. All this is obviously located in the current context of the EU, with a high degree of harmonization of accounting standards between the International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS), and those applied for the preparation of national accounts, ruled by European System of National and Re…

Vivienda colaborativa y personas mayores

2022

El aumento de la esperanza de vida tiene importantes consecuencias en el crecimiento económico, en la estabilidad presupuestaria, en la asistencia sanitaria, en los cuidados de larga duración, en el bienestar y en la cohesión social. El momento actual es determinante para conseguir el equilibrio entre las soluciones sostenibles para la red de protección social, el refuerzo de la solidaridad y justicia intergeneracional y la accesibilidad a una vivienda digna y adaptada a las nuevas necesidades de los mayores. La crisis provocada por la pandemia de COVID-19 ha puesto de relieve la soledad de las personas mayores, circunstancia a la que contribuyen sobremanera los problemas de salud, las cond…

Coopetition Strategy and Entrepreneurial Opportunities: Advantages from Multilevel Analyses

2018

The study aims to provide a set of insights concerning the benefits associated with applying a multilevel perspective to the investigation of the link between coopetition strategies and entrepreneurial opportunities. We emphasize that a firm capability to recognize, form, and exploit business opportunities is strictly connected to its coopetitive strategy. In order to fully understand the potential of coopetitive strategies, the focus has to be not just on the examination of the single coopetitive relationship, but also on the micro-foundations underlying such strategies: i.e. the role covered by entrepreneurs’ or CEOs’ personal traits, heuristics, and previous experiences. We also suggest …

Coopetitive Dynamics in Distribution Channel Relationships: An Analysis of the Italian Context in the Twentieth Century

2009

Through the analysis of the evolution of channel relationships in Italy during the twentieth century, this paper illustrates retrospectively the main factors and determinants underlying the emergence of coopetitive relationships in vertical distribution interactions and, furthermore, allows to identify different forms of coopetitive relationships in distribution channels. This empirical setting also allows to shed light on the way power instances are connected to the emergence of distinct types of interfirm relationships. Finally, it clarifies that in order to define a relationship as coopetitive, it is not sufficient for firms to collaborate for the creation of value and compete for the ap…

Temporary Competitive Advantage: An Investigation into the Core of the Literature

2016

Evidence of over 350 citations recorded by the articles published in the 2010 special issue on “The Age of Temporary Advantage” of the Strategic Management Journal shows that the inquiry on temporary nature of competitive advantage is an emergent research area in strategic management. They also exhibit that, most likely, it is going to be a significant research area for the coming years. To assess the current status of the literature as well as to fathom the directions and challenges of future research on temporary advantage, we review prior empirical research on temporary advantage so as to offer a conceptual map that provides a comprehensive appreciation of antecedents, processes, and con…

COVID-19 and Changes in Social Habits. Restaurant Terraces, a Booming Space in Cities. The Case of Madrid

2021

The COVID-19 pandemic and the fear experienced by some of the population, along with the lack of mobility due to the restrictions imposed, has modified the social behaviour of Spaniards. This has had a significant effect on the hospitality sector, viewed as being an economic and social driver in Spain. From the analysis of data collected in two of our own non-probabilistic surveys (N ~ 8400 and N ~ 2000), we show how, during the first six months of the pandemic, Spaniards notably reduced their consumption in bars and restaurants, also preferring outdoor spaces to spaces inside. The restaurant sector has needed to adapt to this situation and, with the support of the authorities (regional and…
