Abstrakt

The geography of nanotechnology in Italy assesses Italy’s role in the international ‘nanotechnology race’ and analyse the Italian regions’ economic development based on their engagement in nanotechnology activities. Thanks to spatial analysis and a relational approach to economic geography studies, this book sheds light on the nanotechnology activities carried out in Italy, through secondary data (e.g. official statistics and databases) and in-depth reviews of previously published case studies. Special attention is devoted to the impact of nanotechnology in the various Italian regions in light of the long-lasting disparities that characterise the socio-economic development of the country.
