Do voters use information on candidates? Experimental evidence from a recent election
Through a survey experiment during the 2021 municipal elections of Rome, Italy, we evaluate the effects of a policy on political transparency that requires the online publication of information on candidates before the election. We find no effects on turnout and choice of councilors. However, treated subjects who invested more time browsing candidates’ profiles voted more for the incumbent mayor. These effects align with the limited engagement of…
Transparency, civic capital and political accountability
Our paper investigates the intertwined relation among transparency, civic capital and political accountability in a large sample of Italian municipalities using a new indicator of institutional transparency.

Does Social Capital Affect Voter Turnout? Evidence from Italy
In this paper we develop a new composite indicator, named Social Catalyst, able to account for the complex and multifaceted nature of the social capital in a unitary measure. We use our indicator, as well as its components, to explore the relation between social capital and electoral participation in the parliamentary elections in Italy from 1994 to 2008, addressing the potential endogeneity bias. Our findings show that (i) the Social Catalyst po…
C 4 ‐consumers in southern europe
Isotope variations were studied in necropolises of the early (6th to 7th century CE) and central (10th to 11th century CE) medieval period located in Fruili‐Venezia Giulia (Northeastern Italy). The two periods each shortly followed two great barbarian invasions that changed the politics and economy of Italy: the arrivals of Langobards in 578 CE and the Hungarian incursions from the end of the 9th to the first half of the 10th century. These event…
