Non-Standard Employment Seeking Representation
The question of representation for non-standard labor has been a subject of debate for a long time among labor sociologists, researchers into industrial relations, and labor lawyers.

Development and Wellbeing A Question of Works
The economic development and fortunes of States over the centuries have been sustained and often conditioned by the construction of infrastructure. This has allowed many backwards and economically depressed regions to reach excellent levels of prosperity.

When Innovations are Fake
Innovators and startups have two tests to pass: the first is on illusions , that is, the ability to convince others that the future they envision is possible, and the second regards reality , i.e. when you realize if the future as imagined has actually come to be. The case of Theranos, a startup founded in 2003 by the 19-year old Elizabeth Holmes, shows how these two phases are indispensable to have ...
TAP: a Priority for Europe. And for Italy?
The TAP (Trans Adriatic Pipeline) is one of the so-called PCIs, the projects considered as priority for the European Union’s energy policy. As it crosses through Italy to reach the markets of Northern Europe, our country should benefit from a whole series of indirect advantages deriving from this infrastructure.#These are linked mainly to the certainty of supplies and the geopolitical and strategic ...

The competitive advantage of the global city
Over the last two decades there has been a transformation of the systemic components that make up urban infrastructure.

New Mobility for the Country
From 2002 to date, 60 percent of state funding has gone to investments in roads and highways. Yet 42 percent of the national population lives in urban areas, where there is the largest infrastructure gap with respect to the rest of Europe, and above all, where we find most of the demand for transport. To deal with that demand, there should be an increase in the number of trains in circulation, starting ...
