Economics & Management 4/2024
In order to translate the vast body of scientific knowledge into practices that transform organizations and processes to create value for business and wellbeing for society, a dialog between academic research and management practice is essential. Although the impact of research has traditionally been measured in academic terms, it is now also being considered from a socioeconomic perspective, assessed according to how it affects society, the economy and the environment. Innovation can only be accelerated and the ramifications of research maximized by fostering mutual learning between academia and business through an interdisciplinary approach.
Economics & Management 3/2024
While demographic change may seem slow and unnoticeable, its impact on the economic, social, and political future of a country is profound. This is particularly evident in Italy, the third oldest country in the world after Monaco and Japan. Growing longevity and the coexistence of multiple generations within families, organizations, and markets require a rethinking of education and integration policies. Embracing a demographic perspective can facilitate the development of innovative public policies and sustainable business strategies.

Sumarah
Sumarah is a philosophy, a form of meditation, and a way of life originating from Java. It is a path of the heart, of no effort, of no form - a path of surrender. Sumarah guides the practitioner towards deep relaxation of body, feeling, and mind. This is the first step in the process of personal transformation and awakening the inner teacher. In her book, Laura Romano draws on her own extensive personal experience - nourished by the meditation practice that she was introduced to and trained in from her first years in Java - in describing her frequent meetings with the many Javanese masters then still alive. To better illustrate the principles of the Sumarah tradition, she relates stories from her own journey, vividly recreating the relaxed and warm atmosphere of meditation meetings in the homes of various meditation teachers.
