Chasing the perfida Albione: Anglo‐Italian productivity gap in the late 1930s

open access: yesThe Economic History Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper presents new estimates of Anglo‐Italian labour productivity levels in manufacturing in the late 1930s, derived using the standard single‐deflation approach. The findings confirm a substantial productivity gap between Italy and the United Kingdom at the aggregate level, alongside pronounced intersectoral heterogeneity.

Hydropower Regulation of Xingu River Discharge Structures Heterogeneous, Sector‐Specific Responses in Pacu Fisheries Along the River Continuum

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydroelectric dams are common in Amazonian tributaries under federal environmental licensing that requires long‐term fisheries monitoring. This study evaluated three fishing systems targeting “pacu” species (Serrasalmidae) in the Xingu River before, during, and after construction of the Belo Monte dam (2012–2023) across four river sectors ...
