Firms’ distance to the European productivity frontier

2022

AbstractIn this article we explore the factors contributing to reduce the distance of laggard firms to the European frontier, focusing on institutional factors. To characterize Total Factor Productivity frontier firms within industries for the European Union we use firm level data from AMADEUS for the period 2003–2014. Our findings provide evidence on the importance of governance quality and easiness in getting credit in explaining the distance of laggard firms to the European productivity frontier. We also find that other factors at the country level -tertiary education, R&D stock, and trade openness- and at the firm level -size, age, and capital-intensity- influence the distance of la…

Comment peut-on parler du sens du travail dans l'artisanat ? Dans l'entreprise artisanale, au quotidien, comment partager avec les jeunes le sens du travail ? Cet article partage les résultats d'une démarche de recherche-action, menée à l'Université de Bourgogne de 2005 à 2008, dans le cadre du Club des Dirigeants, au sein du Réseau Artisanat-Université.

Land surface temperature and evapotranspiration estimation in the Amazon evergreen forests using remote sensing data

2019

Amazonian tropical forests play a significant role in global water, carbon and energy cycles. Considering the relevance of this biome and the climate change projections which predict a hotter and drier climate for the region, the monitoring of the vegetation status of these forests becomes of significant importance. In this context, vegetation temperature and evapotranspiration (ET) can be considered as key variables. Vegetation temperature is directly linked with plant physiology. In addition, some studies have shown the existing relationship between this variable and the CO2 absorption capacity and biomass loss of these forests. Evapotranspiration resulting from the combined processes of …

Board structures, liberal countries, and developed market economies. Do they matter in environmental reporting? An international outlook

2019

This is the pre-peer reviewed version of the following article: Board structures, liberal countries, and developed market economies. Do they matter in environmental reporting?

: Un dialogue interculturel ?

2008

National audience; L'artisan nous intéresse ici comme un acteur des savoirs. Notre position universitaire n'est pas neutre, il existe une tension entre ces deux mondes dont le chercheur doit tenir compte : comment se présente l'artisan comme acteur des savoirs dans le regard des chercheurs ? Quel est le regard des artisans sur eux-mêmes et par contraste sur les chercheurs en sciences humaines et sociales comme acteurs des savoirs ? Nous proposons un jeu de miroir sur ces représentations sociales, avant d'examiner deux formes de médiation possibles. Ces expériences nous invitent à envisager un rapport aux savoirs repéré dans la figure hybride de "l'artisan-chercheur".

Piano, progetto e bellezza. Processi di trasformazione urbana della costa di Palermo

2020

Mai come adesso le grandi città italiane sembrano affette dalla mancanza ‘e/o dalla ricerca della loro bellezza. Città come Milano o Napoli alimentano, soprattutto in alcune loro parti, la diffusione di immagini del cambiamento culturale in corso. Roma, sia pur afflitta dalle criticità severe in materia di rifiuti e di manutenzione del bene pubblico, rimane ‘la città eterna’ che sa offrire la sua immensa dotazione di beni culturali anche senza alcuna organizzazione gestionale. Palermo (2016-2018) si trova nella condizione ottimale di capitale nazionale della cultura e di ospitare la Biennale nomade ‘Manifesta’ giunta alla dodicesima edizione. Il contributo cerca di mettere in evidenza le co…

CULOTTA E LEONE. ARCHITETTURA CIVILE A PALMA DI MONTECHIARO

2018

Il saggio descrive l'intervento di Pasquale Culotta e Bibi Leone a Palma di Montechiaro nel Quartiere Calvario Pizzillo. Si tratta di un opera poco nota degli architetti siciliani. Il saggio quindi mira a colmare una lacuna nella documentazione. Ma il saggio ha lo scopo principale di analizzare questa opera per le sue peculiarità. Per fare ciò affronta alcuni temi generali che vengono puntualmente messi in opera nel complesso intervento di Culotta e Leone: il progetto urbano, il valore civile dell'intervento architettonico, il "nuovo realismo" progettuale, i rapporti con l'edilizia illegale, le possibilità di un'architettura "low budget". La realtà di Palma di Montechiaro è infatti tragicam…
