Libri di Economia industriale

In recent years, firms in an increasing number of industries are experimenting new “Open” ways of managing Intellectual Property Rights in viable business opportunities, that aim at fostering, rather than limiting, the access to information. Promoting collective ownership and information sharing in on-line communities has proved to foster creativity, dynamic capabilities and global competitiveness of companies.

The book discusses and analyses investment and service quality in the electricity industry from different perspectives: performances of restructured industry in terms of static and dynamic efficiency; costs of service quality, and need for quality regulation; renewed challenges for power generation, such as the opposition of local communities to new investments, or the emerging nuclear technologies.
