Beyond the respective functioning of the classical gold standard and the interwar gold-exchange standard, one of the main differences between both periods was the degree of labour mobility. While the pre-1914 world was characterised by massive migration flows, the interwar years were marked by a dramatic fall in labour movements, owing to the adoption of restrictive immigration policies in the main receiving countries. As a result, labour mobility could no longer play the adjustment mechanism role that it did during the classical gold standard. Indeed, the existence of a number of adjustment constraints, including wage rigidities and factor immobility, led those countries with fixed exchange rates to adopt counterproductive adjustment mechanisms, such as trade protectionism, that result...

Lo scopo del presente saggio è di esaminare il regime applicabile a dati e informazioni detenuti dal settore pubblico.

This article investigates the original contribution to the financial revolution of the Papal States at both the central and local level, with special reference to the evolution of the public debt of the Legazione Bolognese. It is argued that from the standpoint of public finance the contractual character of Papal power was a mixed blessing. On the one hand Papal authorities proved remarkably apt both at winning the trust of local investors and at mastering the art of public borrowing, on the other hand the close alliance with provincial oligarchies acted as a powerful barrier to the modernization of the state and the widening of the fiscal base.
