Description

Vera Zamagni traces the growth of industrialization and argues that despite several advanced areas, Italy only became an industrialized nation after World War II and reveals that during the 1980s the South was still clearly behind the rest of the country. Analyzing data from a macroeconomic perspective, the author examines the growth of the finance sector and the role of the State.

Reviews

"Combining breadth with clarity of presentation and well-balanced judgements, this is an indispensible guide for students of modern Italy and for all those interested in the comparative study of modern economic growth."--American Historical Review
