Ranking Quality of Life in the European Union
digital

Year:
2007
This article provides a multi-dimensional index for evaluating well-being in the EU. It begins
with an overview of an analytical approach that goes beyond utilitarianism: Dasgupta’s quality of
life framework, which is defined according to the goals of EU policies and based on a set of indicators
that are both constituents and determinants of well-being. This framework is then used to draw
up an index, based on a Borda ranking, of the EU member countries in terms of their economic and
social well-being. This is followed by discussion of the correlation between the ranking and the indicators
selected.

Freedoms, institutions and sustainable human development according to Sen’s capability approach
digital

Year:
2006
The aim of this paper is to outline the role of instrumental freedoms and institutions in the
achievement of sustainable human development, doing so according to the perspective of Sen’s
capability approach. Each area of sustainability can be represented by a set of driving forces,
response variables and state variables. State variables denote constitutive freedoms, the achieved
functionings chosen from the capability set. Their variations are produced by driving force variables.
The latter are, in their turn, influenced by response variables triggered by institutions and
instrumental freedoms. We map a selected set of variables related to the environmental dimension in
order to show how instrumental freedoms and institutions influence sustainable human development.

Riflessioni metodologiche sull’integrazione tra i processi di azione locale per la sostenibilità e la certificazione ambientale alla scala territoriale
digital

Year:
2004
The aim of the paper is the definition of a new scheme of environmental management for local
authorities. Such a scheme originates from the characteristics of existing processes of local action
(Local Agenda 21) and environmental management and certification (EMAS II and ISO 14001).
This integrated process overcomes usual regulatory prescriptions, in order to extend the scope of
certification from organization (local authority) to the entire area and to actively involve local communities
by means of the participative model developed in the Local Agenda 21 processes.
