La storia

Nel 1989 alcuni economisti patavini che insegnavano nelle Facoltà dell'Ateneo come Giurisprudenza, Scienze Politiche e Statistica, decidono di dare vita al Dipartimento di Scienze Economiche, dedicandolo alla memoria di Marco Fanno, un economista italiano conosciuto internazionalmente e attivo a Padova nella prima metà del secolo scorso.

Marco Fanno è stato uno dei più grandi economisti italiani del Novecento e un professore di Economia all’Università di Padova dal 1920 al 1955. Ha ottenuto risultati scientifici di spessore internazionale nello studio delle fluttuazioni che accompagnano lo sviluppo delle economie.

6th July 2019: Nobel Lecture Eric Stark Maskin (Adams University Professor at Harvard)

The theory of mechanism design can be thought of as the “engineering” side of economic theory. Much theoretical work, of course, focuses on existing economic institutions. The theorist wants to explain or forecast the economic or social outcomes that these institutions generate. But in mechanism design theory the direction of inquiry is reversed. We begin by identifying our desired outcome or social goal. We then ask whether or not an appropriate institution (mechanism) could be designed to attain that goal. If the answer is yes, then we want to know what form that mechanism might take".

Prof. Eric S. Maskin

 

Biography: Eric Maskin is the Adams University Professor at Harvard. He has made contributions to game theory, contract theory, social choice theory, political economy, and other areas of economics. He received his A.B. and Ph.D from Harvard and was a postdoctoral fellow at Jesus College, Cambridge University. He was a faculty member at MIT from 1977-1984, Harvard from 1985-2000, and the Institute for Advanced Study from 2000-2011. He rejoined the Harvard faculty in 2012.

15th-17th May 2019: Rethinking Clusters-2nd International Workshop on Cluster Research

The workshop focuses on emergent issues related to the evolutionary trajectories of clusters, which encompasses the major challenges of the globalization of the production, the extension of the value chains, the opportunities of smart technologies in manufacturing and services, the transition towards sustainability.

We are facing a period of social and economic revolutions, where governments tend to strengthen the importance of the local dimension of the economic activities, whereas the economy is largely globalized. The challenge is to redefine the relationships between the local and the global scale of the economy, under the imperative of the long-term sustainability of the economic processes. Transitions to sustainability entail changes in people's and organizations’ interactions with each other and with the environment at local to global scales. Therefore, we assist to the need of expanding the knowledge bases for understanding the micro and meso dynamics of the changes, bridging the boundaries between disciplines, geographies, cultures and institutions, and between scholars and practitioners.

This workshop is designed to address the following questions. What are the emergent life-cycle stages of a cluster? How do clusters grow, decline, or renew themselves? Which is the interplay of heterogeneous actors, networks, and institutional environment that explains a cluster’s transition towards sustainability? Which is the role of local and global scale in the sustainable development of clusters/regions?

14th-15th March 2019 Workshop: Creating Value Through Manufacturing: Exploiting Industry 4.0 in a Circular Economy Framework

The workshop aims at exploring the theoretical and empirical challenges concerning the emerging paradigm related to industry 4.0 (additive manufacturing, IoT, cloud computing, robotics, etc.) and the implications for manufacturing and innovation processes in a global competitive environment.

On the one hand, the fourth industrial revolution opens new questions on the location strategies of production activities across clusters, regions and countries, putting under discussion offshoring decisions and emphasizing distributed manufacturing processes and the colocation of manufacturing and consumption. On the other hand technologies may also play a key role in supporting a more effective use of resources in a circular economy perspective.

 

Keynote Speech: Prof. Steffen Kinkel (Karlsruhe University of Applied Science)
