The socioeconomic segregation in Italian metropolitan cities

During the pandemic, the gap between center and periphery inequalities widened. Recent reports indicate a further deterioration in those areas where social marginality was already high, suggesting large differences between the center and the periphery. The Parliamentary Committee of Inquiry into the Peripheries, set up in 2016, has already put on the table the precarious security conditions and the state of deterioration of the cities and their suburbs, raising the possibility of a possible p...

The pandemic crisis and the decline of births in Italy: a causal-effect analysis of the pandemic shock

The Covid-19 pandemic crisis has produced effects on demographic dynamics, accelerating the depression of births already underway in Italy since 2008. From the provisional data published by Istat, the year 2021 certifies yet another negative milestone of lower birth rate ever recorded in the history of Italy. In the following study we show new empirical evidence of the negative impact of the pandemic crisis on the birth rate in our country. In recent years, Italy's birth rate has been among t...

How does accounting save lives? An econometric analysis exploring the effectiveness of the Crispi-Pagliani Health Reform (1888) in Italy

This study compares the healthcare management systems for cholera epidemics in Italy before and after the Crispi-Pagliani Health Reform of 1888. Specifically, we compare the monitoring, accounting, and reporting systems of deaths and infections during the 1884 and 1893 epidemics. Based on an econometric analysis of data from the Italian National Statistical Institute, we demonstrate that the post-reform system was more effective in reducing deaths by optimising medical personnel allocation in...

Cohesion Policy and Income Inequality: Evidence from Italian Municipalities (2000–2022)

This paper investigates the effects of EU Cohesion Policy on income growth and inequality across municipalities in Italian Objective 1 regions. Using a difference-in-differences approach and detailed panel data from 2000 to 2022, we assess how staggered disbursement of EU funds affects per-capita income growth and income distribution. Although we find a significant and persistent positive effect of EU funds on income growth starting from 5 years after the first payment, the inequality – measu...

When green turns costly: The fiscal fallout of EU waste management funds in Italian municipalities

This paper investigates the fiscal consequences of EU-funded waste management projects on local taxation in Italian municipalities. Using a matched framework combined with the staggered difference-in-differences estimator of Sun and Abraham (2021) on panel data from 2007 to 2023, we find that municipalities receiving EU cohesion funds experienced an increase in per-capita waste taxes, driven by rising service costs. This increase is primarily associated with higher costs in the management of ...
