Exploring Performance Management in Italian Local Government: The Necessity of Outcome Measures and Citizen Participation

Based on a sample of local governments from the Apulia region, we used an ordinary least squares regression model to show that local officials are more likely to engage in performance data use when they rely on input, output, and outcome measures and when they increase the level of citizen participation. While the reliance on more advanced performance measures clearly builds on previous research, our study represents one of the few studies that demonstrates a statistically significant relationship between performance management and citizen participation in local government. We conclude from our findings that we cannot forget about basic performance measurement and external stakeholder involvement as scholars continue to push the boundaries of performance management theory.

The definition of usury and the attitudes towards usury changed multiple times over the centuries. We focus on the 12th to the 14th centuries and the changes in the operating, economic and reporting practices resulting from changes in the economy - from subsistence farming to sophisticated international trading. We analyse the relationship between the Church’s usury prohibitions and the development of trading and credit. As a one-sentence summary of our conclusions, we can claim that during the 14th century usury was radically condemned only in theory, but despite this prohibition the Church was not able to contain the spread and the development of credit, and merchants made operations charging interest in the substance of the operations, whilst concealing the existence of interest in visible formal terms.

Moving beyond Innovation Diffusion in Smaller Local Governments: Does Performance Management Exist?

The normative and descriptive research is no longer confined to the adoption of performance measurement for the benefits of accountability and transparency, where studies have relied on an inventory approach to document the prevalence of the management tool among local governments inside and outside of the United States (Poister and Streib, 1999 and Kuhlmann, 2010). The performance paradigm of today, which is commonly referred to as performance management, includes the two distinct stages of adoption (development of measures) and implementation (actual use of them) as described by de Lancer Julnes and Holzer (2001). Therefore, the literature now contains studies on the adoption rates of performance measures and on the organizational dimensions of performance management that promote the actual use of performance data for decision-making.

Sustainability Determinants of Cultural and Creative Industries in Peripheral Areas

Journal of Risk and Financial Management, 2021

Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) are increasingly recognized as part of the global economy... more Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) are increasingly recognized as part of the global economy and of growing importance for sustainable local development. However, the exploitation of their full potential depends on several issues concerning their entrepreneurial dimension and the context where they operate. The paper deals with these issues having the scope to investigate the main determinants of CCIs’ sustainability in peripheral areas, to understand what kind of policy could better support the survival of CCIs and development in these areas, according to an end-user perspective. The research is part of an Interreg Greece-Italy project carried out from mid-2018 until the end of 2020 with specific reference to CCIs in Apulia (IT) and Western Greece (EL). A two-step mixed methodology has been used to figure out regional specializations and the specific aspects of the entrepreneurial structure and business sustainability in the cultural and creative sector (CCs). In the end, the ...
