OFF-THE-BOOK EMPLOYMENT AND THE BLACK ECONOMY

beyond borders
28/05/2011 - 10:00 - 18:00
Napoli - Rione Sanità

The links between the illegal and informal economy and economic devolopment

 

organized by the Ahref Foundaiton in conjunction with the Foundation for the South

 

This year’s Festival of Economics in Trento is devoted to the theme of the borders of economic freedom. But beyond those borders there is also the informal economy, the culture of work without the culture of legality. A culture that may generate some wealth, enable some people to make ends meet, but one which builds no future. Can this economy be forced to emerge? On what conditions? And for what purpose? A series of papers, interventions and speakers will be followed by a concluding debate.  

 

The programme for the day is available at www.ahref.eu and www.festivaleconomia.it.
