Inclusive Europe: the impact of the EU Cohesion Policy on immigrants’ economic integration in Italy

Analysing the impact of Cohesion Policy on the economic integration of immigrants, this study paper - published in the Journal of Policy Modeling - provides evidence on how the European Union promotes inclusion. Focusing on Italian municipalities, the authors - Mara Giua, Rezart Hoxhaj and Eleonora Pierucci - estimate the causal effects of immigrant-related projects on the wage gap between residents and immigrants in the period 2007-2018, finding a significant decrease in the average wage gap of about 7.6%. In particular, cohesion policy has played a positive role in the economic inclusion of immigrants by the means of interventions aimed at supporting employment and labor mobility. For the inclusive dimension of the EU Next Generation programme, this is a fundamental test to start with.

Gender budgeting for the 2018 general state report, Ministry of Economy and Finance - RGS Department

Gender budgeting is an instrument which aims to achieve greater transparency regarding the allocation of budgetary resources and their impact on men and women. Indeed, men and women are influenced differently by budgetary decisions not only in relation to specific policies, but also in relation to their different socio-economic situations, individual needs and social behavior.

The gender budgeting for the 2018 general State Report follows the methodology indicated by the decree of the President of the Council of Ministers of 16 June 2017 and is applied to previous trials for 2016 and 2017.

It is provided a representation of the state budget expenditure reclassified from a gender perspective, as well as a series of statistical indicators to monitor the actions taken (also in the context of cohesion policies) to affect gender inequalities and their association with the structure of the balance sheet, as well as an analysis of the gender impact of the main tax policy measures.

Dying from the aids. Policy failures for the South (and how to avoid them)

What do we know about the effectiveness of policies for the development of the South? Have they achieved their goals? Have there been any negative side effects? "Dying from the aids. Policy failures for the South (and how to avoid them)" is a book written by Antonio Accetturo and Guido de Blasio, with an introduction by Nicola Rossi, published for the Bruno Leoni Institute.

It explains how in the last twenty-five years the progress of economic science and the availability of new data have made it possible carrying out a precise analysis of the results of aid to the South: thanks to the use of rigorous statistical methodologies, we are now able to verify whether monetary transfers have actually contributed to raising the situation on the South. From this book reading , arrises that the evidence in favor of such interventions is however very week and is even more disappointing than that inferable from similar policies used in other countries. The book is available at this link on the Bruno Leoni Institute website.

Working Paper of the Bank of Italy, Discussion topic, N. 1214

Public interventions aimed at regenerating rundown urban areas are an important part of regional development policies. The paper estimates the effects on the evolution of population and local economic conditions of some interventions that took place in small and medium-sized cities in the Centre and North of Italy over the period 2008-12.

The projects were mostly directed towards improving the public realm. Part of the resources was also spent on improving housing quality and on subsidies for stimulating local growth. On average, the interventions did not have any effect on population dynamics and local economic conditions. Only the largest scale interventions that focused on the public realm have led to an increase in house prices, which can be explained by the increased attractiveness of the area.
