New article out in Cliometrica! I show that the decentralisation of the Cassa per il Mezzogiorno caused large negative macroeconomic effects and reshaped the Italian regional divide. A cautionary tale about governance and regional development Open access👇 link.springer.com/article/10.100…
La crescita italiana è stagnante da decenni. Un grafico come questo non dovrebbe far dormire i nostri politici e inquietare i nostri giornalisti. Però è meglio discutere di Ventotene, delle uscite dell'on. Calenda, etc.

Questo caso svelato dal @fattoquotidiano è peggio del "solito" potente che si compra il titolo per status. Qui 1) c'è un titolo che serve per esercitare la professione;2) c'è svelato il"modello di business"delle università telematiche, di recente esplose a scapito delle pubbliche
