Research Lines of the Department of Economics

Il volume offre un quadro complessivo dell’attività di ricerca svolta presso il Dipartimento di Economia dell’Università Roma Tre, con l’obiettivo di favorire collaborazioni con ricercatori di università italiane e internazionali e di fornire indicazioni agli studenti potenziali circa gli interessi che potranno perseguire iscrivendosi ai corsi di Laurea Magistrale o di Dottorato di Ricerca del Dipartimento. Il volume è suddiviso in capitoli, all’interno dei quali i progetti di ricerca sono raggruppati in base all’argomento trattato, indicando per ciascun progetto i ricercatori in esso coinvolti. Consultando il volume è quindi possibile sia individuare tutti i progetti di ricerca in cui è coinvolto ciascun membro del Dipartimento, sia identificare l’insieme dei progetti che afferiscono a uno stesso tema di ricerca. I progetti riflettono tutti gli interessi coltivati nel Dipartimento, che comprende studiosi di macro e micro economia, politica economica, finanza, statistica, matematica, economia aziendale, diritto.

Dimensions of Poverty

This anthology constitutes an important contribution to the interdisciplinary debate on poverty measurement and alleviation. Absolute and relative poverty—both within and across state boundaries—are standardly measured and evaluated in monetary terms. However, poverty researchers have highlighted the shortfalls of one-dimensional monetary metrics. A new consensus is emerging that effectively addressing poverty requires a nuanced understanding of poverty as a relational phenomenon involving deprivations in multiple dimensions, including health, standard of living, education and political participation. This volume advances the debate on poverty by providing a forum for philosophers and em...

The co-operative firm. Keywords

Questo libro è strutturato come un dizionario e come tale presenta 23 brevi contributi, ciascuno con un diverso argomento, scritto da autori con un background differente e una diversa prospettiva disciplinare. Tutti i capitoli ambiscono a descrivere quanto sia antico, ricco e diverso il settore cooperativo a livello mondiale. Tutti i capitoli descrivono esplicitamente o meno il peso del settore cooperativo sulla crescita e lo sviluppo. Presi insieme, i capitoli offrono una spiegazione multidisciplinare del contributo offerto alle nostre vite dal settore cooperativo, illustrano come così è stato da molto tempo e come potrebbe essere ancora a lungo attraverso il reinventarsi del ruolo delle cooperative nella nostra società. Tutti i capitoli descrivono le cooperative con riferimento alle imprese tradizionali ma fanno ciò in maniera critica, piuttosto che retorica o polemica. DOI: 10.13134/978-88-97524-67-0

  • Publisher: Routledge

This book re-evaluates a rich scientific heritage of space- and history-sensitive development theories and produces an integrated methodology for the comparative analysis of urban and regional trajectories within a globalized world. The main argument put forward is that current mainstream analyses of urban and regional development have forgotten this rich heritage and fail to address the connections between different dimensions of development, the role of history and the importance of place and scale relations. The proposed methodology integrates elements from different theories – radical economic geography, regulation approach, cultural political economy, old and new institutionalism – ...
