Green Innovation and Firm Efficiency: The Role of Institutional Quality in Italian High‐Tech Manufacturing Sectors
The aim of this research is to verify whether institutional quality affects the relationship between green innovation and firm efficiency within the high‐tech manufacturing sectors. To estimate jointly the parameters of a stochastic frontier and the coefficients of a model explaining technical inefficiency, we employed the one‐step estimation procedure proposed by Belotti and Ilardi (2018) on data taken from the Orbis database provided by Bureau …

Do cooperative banks matter for new business creation? Evidence on Italian manufacturing industry
This work empirically investigates Italian cooperative banks (BCCs) as a driver of new business creation in the Italian provinces over the period 2003–12. The results show that the presence of BCCs positively and significantly affects firms’ entry rates. We also find that the impact of BCCs diffusion on birth rate tends to be stronger for high tech industries during the pre‐crisis years, whilst it appears larger for low‐tech sectors when consider…
Institutional quality and firms’ productivity in European regions
The relationship between regional institutional quality and firms’ productivity in the period 2010–14 is investigated by regressing a measure of total factor productivity for European manufacturing small and medium-sized enterprises on a regional level index of institutional quality and its components, the rule of law and government effectiveness. Strong evidence is found that better local institutions help small and medium-sized enterprises beco…
Rule of law and regulatory quality as drivers of entrepreneurship
This paper investigates empirically the effects of institutions on new business formation in the Italian provinces over the period 2004–12. According to the results, local institutional quality positively affects entry rates, and its impact is stronger in high-tech industries. Among different institutional dimensions, rule of law turns out to be more important in southern lagging regions, while regulatory quality seems more relevant in the develo…
Les archevêques de Bordeaux: Le seigneur et le pasteur. Les représentations aux XIXe et XXe siècles
La notion d’élite religieuse mérite d’être définie. Ici, le choix a été fait des archevêques de Bordeaux. En quoi, ces élites institutionnelles et charismatiques se distinguent-elles du reste du clergé ? Comment sont-elles représentées par des signes variés renvoyant à l’image du seigneur et à celle du pasteur ? Peut-on discerner des constantes et des évolutions entre le xIxe et le XXe siècle
