The effect of consumption and production policies on circular economy business models
The circular economy (CE) is attracting increasing interest, as it can bring environmental, social, and economic benefits. However, policymakers and scholars appear to concentrate more on the production side of CE, while consumption, and particularly policies that affect consumption have received less attention and their effect is ambiguous. This paper investigates the effect of CE consumption policies on circular economy business models (CEBMs) …
Big Data and State Capitalism
This chapter has explored the relationship between big data and state capitalism. Our starting premise is that big data offer several opportunities. Like any other organization, SOEs produce large volumes of data while undertaking their routine activities. As a result, they end up storing data of different type and complexity that can be used to improve our understanding of the drivers of their performance and by governments and practitioners to …
Developing entrepreneurial career intention in entrepreneurial university
This study addressed the question of how the counterfactual thinking of a student in an entrepreneurial university affects his/her future entrepreneurial career intention. In addition to testing this relationship, we also test how counterfactual thinking moderates the influence of attitude and opportunity identification in entrepreneurial career intention in an entrepreneurial university. We found that in an entrepreneurial university, counterfac…
University-enterprise cooperation for the employability of higher education graduates
Our paper addresses the analysis of how the collaboration between HEIs and companies affects the employability of HEIs students.

We use the database on ‘Empl…

Human Capital
There is nothing more difficult to plan, more Doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to manage Than the creation of a new system. For the initiator has the enmity of all who would Profit by the preservation of the old system, and Merely lukewarm defenders in those who should gain By the new one. N. Machiavelli (1513) AbstractThe purpose of this paper is twofold. First, we want to challenge the notion of "human capital" as "education, training an…
Financial Constraints and Technical Efficiency
In this paper, we test the extent to which producers’ cooperatives can experience an increase in technical efficiency following a tightening of financial constraints. This hypothesis is tested on a sample of Italian conventional and cooperative firms for the wine production and processing sector, using frontier analysis. The results support the hypothesis that increasing financial pressure can affect positively the cooperatives efficiency

Public capital and total factor productivity
Destefanis S. and Sena V. (2005) Public capital and total factor productivity: new evidence from the Italian regions, 1970-98, Regional Studies 39 , 603-618. This paper analyses the relationship between industrial total factor productivity and public capital across the 20 Italian administrative regions. It adds upon the existing literature in a number of ways: it analyses a longer period (1970-98); it allows for the role of human capital accumula…
The Return of the Prince of Denmark
It is well known that innovation is the engine that drives the growth machine of modern capitalist economies. Therefore, not surprisingly, substantial attention has been devoted by economists to the process behind the production of innovations. Three areas have recently emerged as relevant in the field. These are: the impact of spillovers on productivity; the different forms of R&D cooperation and the role of patents in fostering innovations when…
Efficiency in the Public Sector
The Public Sector accounts for a significant share of economic activity in Western countries. Therefore, assessing its performance is quite important. Several techniques have been developed to this purpose. Among these, the one based on the concept of ‘production frontier’ has become very popular. International experts in this field met at the International Conference on the Public Sector Efficiency, organised by the Centre for Applied Economic R…
