, 2006 We aim at contributing to the debate on the mechanisms and properties of economic fluctuations. We consider a crucial aspect among many thought to influence this ubiquitous and extremely relevant phenomenon: the interaction structure that characterises the organisation of production, that is, the production relation among sectors of a system.

Price Premiums for Single‐Name and Compound‐Name Geographical Indications in Swiss Cheese Trade
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Geographical indications (GIs) have become increasingly important in agri‐food markets, especially in Europe.

However, this is only the case for cheeses with single name
