With Michele Boldrin - What are the root causes of backwardness in the Italian regions of Southern Italy? Is it possible to overcome the current situation, perhaps by taking inspiration from international contexts that have been able to innovate and emerge from comparable initial situations? An analysis of the structural, economic and, last but not least, cultural criticalities that characterize Southern Italy. The challenges and opportunities for economic and social progress, with a focus on the Sicilian situation, ranging from: education, entrepreneurship, Differentiated Autonomy, impact of the PNRR, hypotheses of autonomy in bargaining, renewal of the ruling class and concrete implementation of gender equality.
