Abstract

The present work introduces a novel interpretation of the intimate rela- tionship between urban studies and strategic public governance, for devel- opment and management of complex socioeconomic and environmental systems. The linkage between management and other areas of scientific knowledge finds fertile ground in the tradition of the Italian school of business administration, founded by Gino Zappa. This scholar had taken up the vision of the American institutional economics (Veblen, North, and above all, Commons), suggesting a “broad” approach to the study of management and business issues. The basic idea, which the present work has taken as its inspiration, is that the facts should be considered starting from the effective reality, to achieve operational solutions in the light of specific drivers of time, location, and environment. In fact, unlike the pure economist, the managerial economist brings his “operational” vocation to scientific research, to solve practical problems. In this frame- work, the investigation method that the founder has taken as the basis for our subject is a methodology that sees the business sciences as a research space on which including the decisive contribution from other sci- ences, to find integrated and effective solutions to complex socioeconomic problems.
