This study investigates the number and nature of e‐Government programs available in different types of educational institutes. An analysis of 57 programs provides evidence regarding the geographical distribution of the programs, the degree level of each program, the e-Government topics and courses, the aims and learning goals, the knowledge areas,...
The aim of this research is to understand what strategies, models and technologies can be deployed to transform the public administration into being more efficient, effective, fair and data-centric. To do that, the research team has carried out a set of 14 case studies in three analytical domains: the first is data strategies, policies and governan...
Living labs have gained increased attention in research and practice as both a practical and theoretical innovation phenomenon that emphasizes co-creation, real-life settings, and user/customer involvement. More recently, living labs have also emerged as a specific approach to open innovation processes in the context of publics across the EU. Never...

Purpose
This paper aims to present pertinent research challenges in the field of (big) data-informed policy-making based on the research, undertaken within the course of the European Union-funded project Big Policy Canvas. Technological advancements, especially in the past decade, have revolutionised the way that both every day and complex activiti...

Lisbon Council Discussion Paper
“Co-creation” and “design thinking” are trendy themes – the topic of innumerable conferences and a growing number of academic papers. But how do we turn co-creation into a reality for Europe’s 508 million citizens? In Co-Creation of Public Services: Why and How, a new policy brief, co-authors Francesco Mureddu and David Osimo propose a ten-step roa...
This paper introduces the Gov 3.0 project “Scientific foundations training and entrepreneurship activities in the domain of ICT-enabled Governance”. The objective of the project is to establish a knowledge alliance targeting the research and training challenges in the field of ICT-enabled Governance. The project is strongly connected to the theme o...

The public sector gradually starts exploiting the crowdsourcing ideas initially developed in the private sector. However, there is much less knowledge on efficient and effective methods and practices for public sector citizen-sourcing in comparison with private sector crowd-sourcing, so extensive research is required in this area. This paper contri...

In this article we use data from a multi-country Randomized Control Trial study on the effect of anti-tobacco pictorial warnings on an individual’s emotions and behavior. By exploiting the exogenous variations of images as an instrument, we are able to identify the effect of emotional responses. We use a range of outcome variables, from cognitive (...
The EU Community project seeks to promote, facilitate, and ultimately exploit the synergy of a cutting-edge intelligent collaboration platform with a community of institutional actors, stakeholders, scientists, consultants, media analysts and other individuals that can make valuable contributions to EU policy debates. Its ultimate goal is to effect...
According to NEG literature (Baldwin et al. (2004)), spatial concentration of industrial activities increases growth at the regional and aggregate level without generating regional growth differentials. This view is not supported by the data. We extend the canonical model with an additional sector pro- ducing non-tradable goods which benefits from...
The chapter provides an overview of the current debate and state of the art in the domain of big data aiming at assessing the current and potential use of information and communications technology (ICT) tools for collaborative governance and policy modelling for opening up government operations and enhance the ‘intelligence’ of the policy-making pr...
This paper presents a New Economic Geography model of structural change, agglomeration and growth. Assuming a non-homothetic preference structure, our results show that a progressive reduction of trade costs allows the economy to pass from a pre-industrialized to an industrialized stage and then, within the latter, from a dispersed to an urbanized...
This note studies a market signal mechanism for assessing the short and long term tradeoff offered by the existence of natural resources in a tourism destination. We develop a theoretical model in which the destination price index is the tool for obtaining the sustainability of tourist areas. We assume that the stock of natural resources accumulate...
The aim of this paper is to present an outline for discussion upon a new Research Challenge on Opinion Mining and Sentiment Analysis. This research challenge has been developed in the scope of project CROSSOVER “Bridging Communities for Next Generation Policy-Making” in the view of the definition of a new Research Roadmap on ICT Tools for Governanc...
In the last thirty years the role of the government has moved consistently away from services provision to regulation. Society and economy has become more interconnected, unstable and unpredictable than ever, and citizens are keener to engage in complex policy making. Within this context, traditional tools for policy making, based upon the perfectl...
We develop a New Economic Geography and Growth model which ,by using a CES utility function in the second-stage optimization problem, allows for expenditure shares in industrial goods to be endogenously determined. The implications of our generalization are quite relevant. In particular, we obtain the following novel results: (1) two additional non...
This paper analyze the dynamic economic performance of the Italian regions during the period 1970-2004. The measure of economic performance is given by the level and the growth rates of per capita GDP. Using the concept of economic regime, we introduce a notion of distance between the dynamical paths of the Italian regions. Afterwards, a Minimal Sp...
This paper compares the long run prediction of convergence clubs introduced by Quah (1996 and 1997) with the actual observed dynamics of the Italian regions during the period 1970-2004. Economic dynamics is described by the evolution per capita GDP and different notions of distance are introduced to compare the trajectories of the regions. In addit...

A well-established result in the New Economic Geography and Growth literature (Martin (1999), Baldwin et al. (2001) among others) is the ex- istence of a trade-obetween dynamic e¢ ciency (aggregate real growth) and static equity (regional income levels). More precisely, when knowl- edge spillovers are localized, aggregate growth is faster when econ...
The recent Nobel Prize assigned to Paul Krugman "for his analysis of trade patterns and location of economic activity" witnesses the important role that the scienti
c community gives to the insights of the so-called New Economic Geography (NEG) literature. This field of economic analysis has always been particularly appealing to policy makers, give...
