It was easy enough to imagine that the vast, deep and intense global crisis of 2008 would penalize primarily the most fragile economies and the most recent political systems to enter the worldwide market in goods and services. And it was just as easy to imagine that the Italian economy, considered by domestic and international observers to be among the most fragile and least cohesive of advanced economies, would be harder hit than others by the deepest depression since the 1930s, with abnormally high levels of unemployment, impoverishment and social tension. The number itself of the Censis Report -- the 43rd of the series -- bespeaks the long-term comparative perspective that Censis has brought to bear on Italian society in the year of the Great Recession. As often happens, the photogra...

At the turn of the 15th century, there were several European cities that boasted well-developed money markets. Bankers used bills of exchange to exploit exchange-rate differences between these markets in order to earn a profit. de Roover in several publications provides anecdotal evidence that these bankers were successful. Using daily exchange rates from 1384-1411 for Bruges, Flanders and Barcelona, Spain, we confirm his conjecture by documenting that trading profits over this period may have averaged 12% to 13% after transaction costs.

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...

The official data indicate a much less severe impact of the international crisis on employment and on the incomes of wage-earners and pensioners in Italy than might have been predicted. But the standard measure of unemployment agreed at international level has some shortcomings. For one thing, the "objective" definition of unemployment is a poor fit with the Italian labour market. And for another, the emergence of "semi-employment" - the alternation of brief periods of work with periods of unemployment or economic inactivity - and the considerable increase in labour hoarding make the state of the market hard to read. This article offers a more in-depth examination of the impact of the crisis, using labour force survey data to count workers on wage supplementation, the semi-employed and ...

Globalization has brought a new wave of urban gigantism. Nearly half of world GDP is produced in 40 metropolitan regions, which are home to 10 per cent of the planet's population. A network of huge territorial agglomerations (Beijing, Shanghai, Seoul, Mumbai, Manila and, closer to Italy, Istanbul and Cairo) is coming to the fore in the dominance of the international circuits. Italy's 14 mega-cities concentrate in 17 per cent of the nation's territory 61 per cent of its population, 63 per cent of its enterprises and 71 per cent of its more innovative industries and services. Real-estate finance has provided instruments for the revitalization of declining zones and abandoned buildings. Innovation poles, business parks and cultural and entertainment complexes are becoming the new symbolic ...

Reforming and modernizing the public administration, a historic drag on Italian growth and competitiveness, is once again a priority question for Italian Government. Despite significant innovations, the new measures display more elements of continuity than discontinuity with the reforms of the 1990s (under Ministers Cassese and Bassanini), which were among the most important in this field since the unification of Italy. The essay draws a balance of the administrative reforms of the 1990s, their quantitative and qualitative results, successes and failures. It analyzes the causes of the failures and delays in the implementation of the reform, and particularly in the introduction into Italy's public administration of modern systems of performance evaluation, productivity incentives, merit-...
