Local and territorial determinants in the realization of public–private–partnerships: an empirical analysis for Italian provinces

2019

ABSTRACT Relational networks and intangible factors are crucial elements for the competitiveness of a territory. Public–Private–Partnerships (PPPs), in particular, allow for the provision of goods and services that favour the exploitation of complementarities between public and private resources. They aim at promoting an increase in the overall efficiency of investment projects through a complex mechanism that distributes risk and revenues among stakeholders. This paper examines the local and territorial determinants of PPPs through an econometric analysis based upon Italian municipal data, grouped at the provincial level. Using a tobit model, we analyse the relationship between the realiza…

Risorse territoriali e sviluppo locale: potenzialità e limiti del modello distrettuale

2012

Il tema centrale di questo scritto è ragionare sui requisiti di territorialità che possono essere rintracciati nei sistemi ad economia diffusa, con particolare attenzione alle mutazioni intervenute con la transizione ad una fase “postindustriale” che molti sistemi economici maturi stanno affrontando da alcuni anni. Proprio l’avere assunto come riferimento la nozione di sistema locale ci mette a disposizione un apparato concettuale che, a nostro avviso, ben si presta a svelare alcuni degli equivoci terminologici (e, poi, anche operativi) comparsi di recente nella cultura dello sviluppo locale. Si proverà a affrontare la questione facendo ricorso al concetto di “esternalità”, un termine che h…

L'espace de liberté comme mesure synthétique du développement territorial durable

2011

By discussing the concept of development itself, authors propose two synthetic indexes relying on estimation of potential: Development Space Value and Development Space Creation Under the weak hypothesis that any successful development improves future possibilities, changes in potential are a good development measure. In their path, authors show how development space is tied with freedom: a shrink in it results mechanically in indexes fall. So, "sustainable" and "economic" become two sides of same piece rather than enemies. Reliable in simulations, the approach is to be tested in real conditions, to verify full data availability and to secure calculating methods.

Qualitative analysis of housing demand using Google trends data

2019

Big data analytics often refer to the breakdown of huge amounts of data into a more readable and useful format. This study utilises Google Trends big data as a proxy for an analysis of housing demand. We employ a qualitative method (fuzzy set/Qualitative Comparative Analysis, fsQCA), instead of a quantitative method, for our estimate and forecast. The empirical results show that fsQCA successfully forecasts seasonal time series, even though the dataset is small in size. Our findings fill the gap in the qualitative and time series forecasting literature, and the forecasting procedure herein also offers a good standard for industry.

Piani strategici sul turismo delle regioni italiane: un’analisi comparativa

2021

In Italy, the recent constitutional reforms have given regional administrations an increasing weight over government and tourism regulation. Therefore, observing the regions' Strategic Plans represents a valuable model for understanding the Italian tourist reality. For this reason, the article proposes a comparison of the tourist planning documents of the Italian regions, recalling indicators extracted from the paper of the UNWTO - World Tourism Organization - on the policies and objectives of spatial tourism planning. The article analyses the strategic plans through a synthesis indicator, which compares the main items considered in the regional strategies and their presence in the general …

La programmazione del turismo delle regioni e la Regione Toscana

2022

With reference to the functions attributed to municipalities and provinces, the Tuscany Region has maintained a central role of planning and coordination of activities in the tourism sector. Local authorities and the various territorial levels of the trade associations of undertakings and workers are also formally involved in the preparation of regional planning. For this purpose, some regions have set up consultation tables to involve all public and private stakeholders in the sector. The article delves into the modalities of tourism planning, highlighting the training process and the laws of reference.

Il Pnnr e le economie del turismo in Italia: le disparità regionali e le politiche

2022

The Italian regions show marked differences in the pattern of tourism development. These disparities can be offset by implementing a shared plan that supports the post-pandemic restart and strengthens its resilience to external shocks. The multiannual programming initiative launched by the EU with the National Recovery and Resilience Plan (PNRR) aims to address the consequences of the exogenous shocks triggered by the crisis from Covid-19 on the European production system. According to a top-down strategy articulated in a national plan and regional and sub-regional action plans, the large number of economic resources foreseen in the Plan will produce significant effects. The Pnrr's general …

L'Economia del Turismo della Regione Toscana

2022

Analysis of the tourism economies of a region is relevant for determining the policies and effects of tourism on the productive and economic system. For the Tuscany region, the main economic indicators are analysed using panel data and checking their development and growth dynamics. The article analyses data on tourism spending, balance of payments and impacts, with reference to both ISTAT data and estimates of ignored tourism in the region.

Asymmetric effects of monetary policy shocks across US states

2019

This paper provides new empirical evidence of the asymmetric effects of monetary policy shocks across regions. Using a measure of unanticipated changes in the Fed's policy rates over the period 1969Q3–2008Q4 and a local projection method extended to account for spatial effects, we find that monetary policy tightening leads to a long-lasting decrease in states' real personal income, with asymmetric effects across states that are amplified by spatial spillovers. The paper then investigates the role played by several transmission channels finding larger contractionary effects of monetary policy tightening in states with higher manufacturing share, smaller firms, smaller banks and higher house …
