CULTURAL INDOCTRINATION AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Discussant: ELISABETTA CROCI ANGELINI / UNIMC
The seminar concerns extra-economic factors influencing economic development in the globalizing world. We will begin our discussion with the fact that increasing complexity and competitiveness makes global corporations to revisit their business positioning and adopt more impactful and innovative strategies. As mentioned in the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor reports (2012, 2014), in the last couple of years the economic development at the national and supranational level is influenced significantly by the presence of people who are able to see new opportunities for entrepreneurship and to present creativity in implementation of business ideas. Obviously, positive attitudes of society to creativity and entrepreneurship help business climate and significant influence of cultural values, norms and arrangements to perception of business, entrepreneurship and creativity itself, which are supposedly incorporated at the institutional level. This constant demand for innovation, creativity, business strategies together with culturally indoctrinated norms force to pay closer attention to extra-economic factors valuable for business and society. We will compare some EU examples with those outside (visibly Russia).
Wednesday April 29th / 14h00-17h00

UNEQUAL EQUALITY: DIVERSITY AND EQUALITY IN POLICY-MAKING
Discussant: EMMANUELE PAVOLINI/ UNIMC
Several questions will be asked: what is the scope of equality policy, what do the categories used in equality policy have in common? Is equality policy aimed at individuals and groups whose members should be protected? What criteria define such groups and their members? Can we justify protection for traditional equality grounds such as ethnicity or gender, while neglecting poverty or class?
