Statistical Methods and Applications from a Historical Perspective
The book showcases a selection of peer-reviewed papers, the preliminary versions of which were presented at a conference held 11-13 June 2011 in Bologna and organized jointly by the Italian Statistical Society (SIS), the Institute national Institute of Statistics (ISTAT) and the Bank of Italy. The theme of the conference was "Statistics in the 150 years of the Unification of Italy." The celebration of the anniversary of Italian unification provided the opportunity to examine and discuss the methodological aspects and applications from a historical perspective and both from a national and international point of view. The critical discussion on the issues of the past has made it possible to focus on recent advances, considering the studies of socio-economic and demographic changes in European countries.

Inequality
Inequality endangers the fabric of our societies, distorts the functioning of democracy, and derails the globalization process. Yet, it has only recently been recognized as a problem worth examining. Why has this issue been neglected for so long? In Inequality: A Short History, Michele Alacevich and Anna Soci discuss the emergence of the inequality question in the twentieth century and explain how it is related to current issues such as globalization and the survival of democracy. The authors also discuss trends and the future of inequality. Inequality is a pressing issue that not only affects living standards, but is also inextricably linked to the way our democracies work.

Credito e società romana nell'età moderna
La storia romana ha finalmente le pagine dedicate a un suo aspetto poco indagato: quello finanziario. L’Autore ha individuato nel nascente modello barocco, elementi nuovi adottati dall’élite per farvi ancora parte o decadere: l’attenzione al mercato , il profitto, la speculazione, il tornaconto individuale. Nel saggio viene privilegiato l’impianto comparatistico con l’Europa, nel tentativo di evidenziare affinità e diversità, come esige il più aggiornato circuito storiografico. Ne sono affiorate la comparsa della prima moneta “unica”, l’esigenza di manovrare il tasso d’interesse, i primi contrasti fra Stato e finanza, e soprattutto la rinunzia a quella spietata politica mercantilistica che vedrà decollare alcuni Paesi del Nord e avviare lo Stato ecclesiastico verso l’inevitabile decadenza.
