• TITLE: Building the Italian Economy: A Proposal for the Renaissance of the Italian Municipalities

  AUTHORS: Robert J. Taormina, Lucia Samantha Urbano

  KEYWORDS: Italian Economy, Municipalities, Cultural Heritage, Historical Structures, Tourism

  JOURNAL NAME: Advances in Applied Sociology, Vol.10 No.8, August 21, 2020

  ABSTRACT: This paper presents a proposal for the Italian municipalities (the comuni) to revitalize their local economies by independently initiating reconstruction of selected historical sites. The proposal explains the need for this unique approach, and describes, in a stepwise process, how it could be achieved. The research question is how to reinvent Italy’s economy by invigorating its cultural heritage. This proposal outlines a practical strategy for building the Italian economy by putting Italians back to work in a way that honors the Italian culture. Real-world examples are used as evidence gathered from the relevant literature (namely, books, journal articles, and research theses) to support the proposal. Implications of taking this approach could result in more Italian people gaining employment and prosperity, leading to wealth and social happiness for the nation.
