Texte intégralObject of the research is the territorial cooperation among regions belonging to different States in the context of the European Union. With the term “territorial cooperation”, we refer to both cross-border and interregional cooperation. We deal with the topic as a specific case of the internationalization of the regions from a European studies’ perspective (multi-level governance, policy networks, Europeanization). The analysis is focused on the main stages of the evolution of the territorial cooperation in Europe, highlighting the impact on the issue of the heterogeneous national constitutional contexts and the supranational institutions’ policies (Council of Europe and European Union). In particular, we concentrate on the role of the regions’ features on their choices and strategies about territorial cooperation. The case-study is the comparison of the four Italian regions with ordinary statues.
DI, CROCE NICOLA. « Sonic acknowledgments. La territorialità delle politiche nella pratica dell'ascolto ». Doctoral thesis, Università IUAV di Venezia, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/11578/278716.
Texte intégralLa ricerca si propone di indagare le possibili interazioni tra i campi della pianificazione territoriale, delle politiche pubbliche, e dei Sound Studies. L’obiettivo è esplicitare le connessioni tra ambiente sonoro e questioni urbane e territoriali attraverso la pratica dell’ascolto; tematizzare dunque le modalità di produzione di conoscenza per affrontare l’inquadramento di particolari “problemi” e l’elaborazione di possibili approcci alternativi di ricerca. Se l’attitudine è sicuramente progettuale, lo scopo dichiarato è analitico, propedeutico all’azione: al disegno di politiche come all’empowerment di comunità. L’ascolto assume quindi le caratteristiche di uno strumento di ricerca; se ne vogliono delineare le potenzialità, esplorare le tracce attraverso cui approcciare le questioni urbane e territoriali che pur “facendo problema” sembrano passare spesso “inosservate”, soprattutto su un piano istituzionale. Si è invitati a seguire un percorso inedito di lettura delle politiche pubbliche, che rimanda al superamento del problem solving e procede verso un’articolazione sonora del problem setting. Attraverso la lettura dell’ambiente sonoro si vuole infatti esplicitare i termini su cui si articola la produzione di conoscenza a supporto dell’azione; conoscenza che costituisce un aiuto essenziale per il processo decisionale, dunque per il disegno di politiche. Il suono, e l’ambiente acustico, intervengono come messaggeri di un modello interpretativo finora troppo poco praticato dalla pianificazione e dal policy design. Se il suono è il centro della ricerca, il suo potenziale evocativo e rappresentativo si esplicita e riverbera nella dimensione politica. Sono allora da introdurre e chiarire i cardini del discorso: definire il paesaggio sonoro, l’ambiente acustico, ed esplorare gli studi culturali che ne stanno decodificando i segnali, dunque il quadro percettivo consapevole e inconsapevole cui l’ascolto fa costantemente riferimento.

Texte intégralThe present work is made of three different essays, the first is an extension of a two region general equilibrium model (Benigno JIE 2004), with the intent of calculating optimal weights for EU inflation using micro data on the level of price rigidities, the second and the third have as main focus financial and currency country crises, with the task of selecting the most important variables in terms of crisis prediction by means of a descriptive statistics methodology called transvariation analysis. While the second essay focuses on univariate transvariation, the third extends the methodology to a multivariate framework. The last two essays are based on two different datasets. The first studies the most recent deep financial crises of the 1990s and the source is IMF, International Financial Statistics, the second uses a vast sample of currency crisis episodes taken from Frankel and Rose (1996) dataset made of annual data on more than one hundred developed countries from 1971 through 1992 and defining currency crash as a large change of nominal exchange rate that is also a substantial increase in the rate of change of nominal depreciation. The source in this case is World Bank, World Development Indicators.
MONTA', CHIARA CARLA. « Children’s education for participation in public, formal and structured decision-making processes : moving between policy and practice ». Doctoral thesis, Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, 2022. http://hdl.handle.net/10281/363770.
Texte intégralThe research explores children’s education for participation in public, formal and structured decision-making processes. The relationship between education and politics has been at the heart of various pedagogical traditions (Bertolini, 2003; Dewey, 1916; Freire, 1968) which have placed the concept of participation at its centre. In the history of politics, as intended in the European tradition, participation is far from being an inherent practice; instead, it requires specific training. Childhood studies’ (Ariès, 1968; Becchi, 1994) analyse children’s participation in common spaces as a defining feature of the profile of childhood in the course of history. To date, child participation is a transversal but not explicit dimension of the exercise of rights, the formation of which is placed at the basis of the sustainable development of humanity (United Nations General Assembly, 2015). Moreover, the phenomenon underlies a crucial pedagogical question: what can a child learn to do and be in a given society (Biffi, 2018)? The meanings of the phenomenon have been explored through a content analysis (Berelson, 1952; Mayring, 2004) of policies addressed to children from 2010 to 2018 at an international and European level (Montà, 2021). Subsequently, an empirical phase explored its lived meanings. The project is part of a qualitative research approach (Denzin & Lincoln, 2018), built on the basis of the phenomenological-hermeneutic method (Mortari, 2016; Van Manen, 1990, 2016), according to the case study strategy (Yin, 2014). The case was identified in the exemplary experience offered by the work carried out by the Scottish Children's Parliament (CP) in collaboration with Manor Park Primary School in Aberdeen. It is a context able to translate into educational practices the sense of children’s participation in public, formal and structured decision-making processes as described by policies. Data collection and documentation of the research process took place through ethnographic observations (Anderson-Levitt, 2006; Angrosino & Rosenberg, 2011; Van Manen, 1990), semi-structured interviews (Hesse-Biber, 2017; Merriam, 2009; Sità, 2012) and focus groups that were held also online (Moore, McKee, & McCoughlin, 2015; Salmons, 2014; Stancanelli, 2010; Wilson, 1997). A central role was also played by the researcher's reflective thinking, which was kept track of through the research journal. Data analysis was conducted following the phenomenological-hermeneutic approach (Van Manen, 1990) with the support of NVivo software. Reflections and indications emerge from the work that are crucial for rethinking the construct of 'child participation' and the underlying educational practices.

Texte intégralMy doctoral thesis consists of three empirical papers on the unsecured euro money market and its functioning during the 2007-2008 financial crisis. The first paper, titled “The functioning of the European interbank market during the 2007-2008 financial crisis”1 provides a detailed analysis of the functioning of the overnight (O/N) unsecured euro money market during the 2007-2008 financial crisis by looking at the time patterns of interest rates, market turnover and banks’ borrowing costs. The aim is to disentangle the impact of market events – since the outbreak of tensions in the summer of 2007 until the end of November 2008 – from seasonal patterns of market activity, movements determined by the Eurosystem’s operational framework, the impact of the ECB’s exceptional crisis-related interventions. The results show the important role, alongside market events, of the additional refinancing provided by the ECB and of credit institutions’ increased tendency to hoard surplus reserves rather than trading them in the secondary market. Higher counterparty credit risk and seasonal factors are important determinants of O/N rates and volumes; the exceptional provision of liquidity by the Eurosystem and the relevant changes to the operational framework have influenced banks’ incentives to trade liquidity in the market. The analysis of banks’ costs for uncollateralised loans provides evidence of the major role of bank reputation to obtain better funding and, during the crisis, of a retreat towards national counterparties and of a too-big-to-fail guarantee implicitly granted to the banks with the highest volumes of business. The second paper, titled “The microstructure of the money market before and after the financial crisis: a network perspective”2, provides a detailed microstructure analysis of the euro money market by taking a network perspective. Banks are the nodes of the networks; overnight unsecured loans form the links connecting the nodes. The static analysis of network indicators confirms a number of stylised facts verified for other real complex systems: interbank networks are highly sparse, far from being complete, exhibit the small world property and a power-law distribution of degree (the number of counterparties each bank establishes links with). On the other hand the tendency of banks to cluster, i.e. to form groups where links are relatively denser, is much lower than in other real systems. The analysis of the topology before versus after the start of the crisis provides interesting insights into the potential for financial contagion; the partition of the network into several smaller sub-networks documents a move against market integration; heterogeneous patterns of indicators across banks of different size offer insights into banks’ behaviour. Finally, the analysis of network centrality indicates unambiguously that the biggest banks are also the most central/influent in the system before the onset of the crisis. Things change after August 2007 since medium-sized and very small banks progressively increase their influence in the market as liquidity providers. 1 CEIS Working Paper No. 158 (December 2009). Submitted to the International Journal of Central Banking. 2 CEIS Working Paper No. 181 (January 2011). The last paper, titled “Too-connected versus too-big-to-fail: banks’ network centrality and overnight interest rates”3 aims at studying what influences banks’ borrowing costs in the unsecured euro money market. The objective is to test whether measures of centrality, quantifying network effects due to interactions among banks in the market, can help explain heterogeneous patterns in the interest rates paid to borrow unsecured funds once bank size and other bank and market factors that affect the overnight segment are controlled for. Preliminary evidence shows that large banks borrow on average at better rates compared to smaller institutions, both before and after the start of the financial crisis. Nonetheless, controlling for size, centrality measures can capture part of the cross-sectional variation in overnight rates. More specifically: (1) Before the start of the crisis all the banks, independently of their size, profit from different forms of interconnectedness, but the economic size of the effect is small. Bank reputation and perceived credit riskiness are the most relevant factors to reduce average daily interest rates. Foreign banks borrow at a discount over Italian ones. (2) After August 2007 the impact of banks’ interconnectedness becomes larger but changes sign: the “reward” stemming from a higher centrality becomes a “punishment”, which possibly reflects market discipline. Bank reputation becomes even more important. (3) After Lehman’s bankruptcy the effect of centrality on the spread maintains the same sign as after August 2007, but the magnitude increases remarkably. Foreign banks borrow at a relevant premium over Italian ones; reputation becomes outstandingly more important than in normal times.

Texte intégralRome Transplant Network (RTN), founded in April 2006, represents a Metropolitan Transplant Program involving seven transplant centers. The policy of RTN for patients (pts) lacking of a HLA identical sibling and candidate to an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is the contemporary search for an alternative HSC source such as Matched Unreleted Donor (MUD), Cord Blood (CB) or Haploidentical Related Donor (HRD). The aim of the study is the identification of a suitable donor in order to perform transplant procedure in adequate timing. Data were obtained from RTN database. The selection criteria for MUD consist of a 8/10 HLA loci matching tested at low resolution for class I HLA and at high resolution (HR) for class II. Selection criteria for single CB unit are based on cell doses TNC > 3x107 / kg and CD34+ > 1x 105 / kg and on a > 4/6 HLA antigen compatibility. From April 2006, the haploidentical option was also simultaneously considered, so all closer family members have been tested for the HLA. Mother was considered as 1st choice. Here, we report the results of the intention to treat (ITT) analysis on the potential therapeutic impact of our transplant policy. From April 2006 to December 2010, 428 out of 462 candidate pts have been considered eligible to receive an allogeneic HSCT for hematological desease. HLA identical sibling donor was available in 146 out of 428 (34%) cases, while a search process for an alternative donor was activated for 282 (66%) pts. 13 pts are too early to be evaluated and we were not able to identify any alternative donor for 25 (9%) of the 269 (95%) remaining pts because of 40%, affected by Haemoglobinopathies, requiring more restricted HLA matching criteria. An alternative donor was identified for 244 (91%) of these 269 pts. Despite the identification of an alternative donor, 51 (20%) pts lost the eligibility during the search process because of several causes. To date, 193 (80%) of 244 pts have been definitively transplanted (50 CB; 73 MUD; 54 HRD) or are willing to proceed towards the transplant (n = 16), while 146 pts have been grafted from a HLA identical siblings. In summary, a suitable donor was identified for 390 (91%) of 428 pts eligible for an allogeneic transplant which could be performed in 339 (80%) of them. From this ITT analysis, we can conclude that, by adopting the RTN policy of widespread donor search and multiple transplant options, the allogeneic transplant can be offered as a potential therapeutic procedure to a large majority of pts.

Texte intégralThe thesis highlights the development of a coherent and instrumental european infrastructure policy. First, the thesis shows the process of vertical (communitarization) and horizontal (complementarity and specialty vis-à-vis other EU policies) autonomisation of Trans-European Networks (TENs) policy. Secondly, the thesis points out the role played by the processes of « networkation » and « agencification » of national regulators in promoting interconnection and access to networks. Finally, the thesis emphasises the growing relevance of EU financial support to the establishment of TENs, and a competing tendency towards the reconciliation of national expansionary fiscal policy with EU law constraints. The thesis concludes by noting that Member States will continue to play a decisive role in TENs policy, not only by improving the actual degree of its implementation, but also allowing, in a forthcoming Treaty revision, to overcome the TENs intergovernmental legacy
Le reti transeuropee sono uno dei vettori della competitività, dell’integrazione e dello sviluppo sostenibile dell’Unione. La tesi mette in luce la progressiva affermazione di una coerente politica infrastrutturale europea a carattere strumentale, esaminando tale evoluzione sotto tre profili: normativo, istituzionale e finanziario. In primo luogo, sotto il profilo normativo, la tesi evidenzia, da un lato, la progressiva emancipazione delle istituzioni dell’Unione dall’influenza degli Stati membri nell’esercizio delle proprie competenze in materia di reti transeuropee e, dall’altro, lo sviluppo di relazioni di complementarietà e specialità tra la politica di reti e altre politiche dell’Unione (capitoli 1 e 2). L’elaborato sottolinea, in secondo luogo, sotto il profilo istituzionale, il ruolo del processo di «integrazione organica» dei regolatori nazionali e del processo di «agenzificazione» nel perseguimento degli obiettivi di interconnessione e accesso alle reti nazionali. La tesi osserva, infine, sotto il profilo finanziario, l’accresciuta importanza del sostegno finanziario dell’UE alla costituzione delle reti, che si è accompagnata al parziale superamento dei limiti derivanti dal diritto dell’UE alla politiche di spesa pubblica infrastrutturale degli Stati membri. Da un lato rispetto al diritto della concorrenza e, in particolare, al divieto di aiuti di stato, grazie al rapporto funzionale tra reti e prestazione di servizi di interesse economico generale, e dall’altro lato riguardo ai vincoli di bilancio, attraverso un’interpretazione evolutiva della cd. investment clause del Patto di stabilità e crescita. La tesi, in conclusione, rileva gli sviluppi decisivi della politica di reti europea, ma sottolinea il ruolo che gli Stati membri sono destinati a continuare ad esercitare nel suo sviluppo. Da questi ultimi, infatti, dipende la concreta attuazione di tale politica, ma anche il definitivo superamento, in occasione di una prossima revisione dei Trattati, dei retaggi intergovernativi che continuano a caratterizzare il diritto primario in materia

Texte intégralThe present Thesis is structured as a collection of three essays linked by one core idea: contributing to research knowledge on inter-organizational network dynamics in the context of innovation and the promotion of sustainability. In this Thesis, the author takes a systemic perspective and analyses the interactions between diverse groups of stakeholders, aiming to identify and interpret the logic underlying the formation of inter-organizational partnerships to promote innovation and sustainability. The dynamics of inter-organizational networks are influenced by several internal and external factors, such as strategic cooperation with stakeholders, structural changes (such as an R&I policy change), and exogenous shocks (such as COVID-19). The present work’s value is developing research inputs and providing empirical ground and methodological support for innovation management framed by inter-organizational networks and mission-oriented public policy evolution. The present work is divided into three main chapters, and their abstracts are presented below. Finally, the Thesis ends with conclusions that summarize the outputs of the empirical works. CHAPTER 1 An appropriate starting point to comprehend the inter-organizational networks for sustainability is to deepen the research knowledge on stakeholders’ role in sustainable innovation and disentangle the antecedents, management, and potential sustainable innovation outcomes. Using the Scopus database, we collected papers that represent works carried out in the field of sustainable innovation and stakeholders’ involvement in organizational practices for these innovations. Based on the data process selection method, we carry out a literature review of the 59 selected papers. This literature review aims to describe the sustainable innovation phenomena and offer a comprehensive overview of the knowledge produced on the theme to practitioners and policymakers So, this chapter presents an interpretative framework of extant literature and discuss the following questions related to the inter-organizational resource-management of sustainable innovation: (a) with whom to work; (b) when to work; (c) how to work together; (d) what challenges should organizations learn to face. Theoretical and practical business implications of the proposed framework are discussed. CHAPTER 2 This chapter aims to analyze the inter-organizational R&I collaboration network dynamics at a mesoscopic level as a consequence of an external environment change. In particular, the study’s empirical setting is the policy change that occurred when passing from the EU 7th Framework program (FP7) to the HORIZON 2020 program (H2020). This change’s effect on the patterns of evolution of the inter-organizational networks between financed actors is stressed. In such R&I context, inter-organizational networks play a particularly critical role as innovation catalysts. Using a dataset of more than 22,228 unique projects in FP7 and 22,153 in H2020, we constructed two collaboration networks. We apply network analysis as a research instrument to identify and measure the fundamental structural properties of networks. At the mesoscopic level, the resulting communities for both networks have been analyzed and compared. Results show that under a policy change, the Horizon 2020 network becomes more assortative than the FP7 network. Preferential attachment (reach-club phenomenon) between leading R&I institutions is demonstrated within the system. The network is supported by the sporadic participation of (many) new actors. Also, the work outcomes demonstrate three different architectures of inter-organizational connections that can define network dynamics: (i) persistent stability or knowledge concentration, (ii) expansion of clusters or knowledge spread, and (iii) merging effect or knowledge aggregation. With these results, we contribute to organizational and network theories by detecting and identifying structural patterns for innovation links in such a complex system as the EU framework program stressing the policy’s impact on them as a dynamics booster. CHAPTER 3 The last chapter examines the impact of an exogenous shock on an inter-organizational R&I network. We concentrate on healthcare public-private partnerships and investigate the history dependencies within them and how an exogenous shock such as COVID-19 fosters an evolution of the complex R&I network. In total, data of 2087 funded projects (FP7, HORIZON 2020, and Innovative Medicines Initiative) are involved in this study to understand the evolution process(es) these types of networks manifest under emergency conditions. The results demonstrate that the present crisis’s urgency shifts the healthcare sector to test new working paths. Two opposite behaviors of the actors in these networks are observable: (i) highly innovative partnerships and (ii) strong lock-in effects. Additionally, we state that non-EU countries demonstrated strong cooperation and co-creation openness under this exogenous shock. Furthermore, the urgency conditions in COVID-19 push policymakers to demonstrate vital flexibility and adaptability of the EU R&I call to the societal needs. Finally, it is possible to underline that network analysis is a powerful research tool for developing new knowledge regarding R&I cooperation evolution under external factors. Accordingly, this work provides a theoretical and an empirical framework for managing the inter-organizational innovation network based on a dynamic complex system theory perspective (Simon 1996; Sawyer, 2005). In particular, it is possible to mention the newly developed insight capable of describing the network’s dynamics through the meso and micro levels of analysis.

Texte intégralRising Food Prices and Undernourishment: A Cross-Country Inquiry Households' welfare in developing countries has been hit by dramatic food prices increases which occurred between 2005 and 2008. In this paper, we adopt a partial equilibrium approach to analyze the short-time eects of a staple food price increase on nutritional attainments, as a measure of welfare. The analysis consists of rst approximating complete food-demand systems and then performing household level micro-simulations. Instead of focusing on a single country prole, we provide a more complete snapshot through a cross-country assessment made possible by the use of nationally representative household surveys. Comparability is assured by the adoption of the same methodological choices in the treatment of the micro data. We nd that food price increase not only reduces the mean consumption of dietary energy, but also worsen the distribution of food calories, further deteriorating the nutritional status of populations. We also discovered that access to agricultural land plays a big role in assuring adequate nutritional attainments in rural areas, and surprisingly, even in urban areas. Keywords: Food prices, food policy, calories intake, demand system, household surveys, cross-country analysis Estimating the Heterogeneous Eects of Aggregate Shocks on Caloric Adequacy: The Case of Hurricane Mitch in Nicaragua Previous evaluation studies on the impact of the hurricane Mitch were focused on the short and medium-term average eects on dierent welfare outcomes [household consumption growth (Premand, 2008), child's wellbeing (Baez and Santos, 2007), household budget and schooling (Ureta, 2005)] using 1998, 1999 and 2001 LSMS panel data on Nicaraguan households. In this study, longer term eects are analyzed by adding the 2005 survey to the well-known dataset. We investigate through the dierence-in-dierence methodology if the eects of the hurricane and of the humanitarian response persist on average 7 years after. Additionally, we go beyond the standard average impact by focusing on the heterogeneity of the impact across households. For this purpose, the quantile treatment eect (QTE) estimation is implemented over the outcome distribution. Another contribution of this research is the analysis of the hurricane's impact on intra-household outcomes when only household-level data are available. The methodology introduced by Chesher (1997) is extended to the impact evaluation set-up in order to estimate age-gender specic outcomes. The scope of this methodology is also to shed some light on the short- and longer-term eectiveness of humanitarian response on the welfare levels. This chapter also focuses on nutritional attainment as the outcome of interest. In fact, the study aims to estimate in a comprehensive manner the impact of the hurricane Mitch on household caloric adequacy, which is dened as the ratio between the dietary energy consumption (caloric intake) and the minimum human requirements. Measuring Dietary Energy Deciency at the Household Level: A Methodological Note on the Micro-Analysis of Undernourishment FAO is the main provider of country-level estimates of undernourishment covering the whole world. Its methodology has the main advantage of facilitating comparisons across countries and over time, but also has a limited capacity to understand the causes of food insecurity within countries (FAO, 2003; Barret, 2010). The upward trends in global food prices, concerning many staple commodities between 2005 and 2008, stimulated us to extend the principles of the FAO methodology in order to assess the impact of rising food prices on household-level food security. The objective of this methodological chapter is to provide a detailed description of the methodology applied in the previous chapters for measuring undernourishment, and more specically dietary energy deciency at the household level. Additionally, this chapter provides some guidelines to construct household specic dietary energy requirements, instead of using a single threshold (generally, 2100 kilocalories per person per day) for all households. Constructing a good household-level indicator will also be useful to conduct scientically solid impact evaluations on food security programmes and policies in dierent areas of the world.
