The Complex Environments of Special Economic Zones - Challenges and Opportunities in Italy

This book presents a comprehensive framework for understanding Special Economic Zones (SEZs) as a powerful tool for regional development, stimulating investment, creating employment opportunities, and supporting economic growth through tax incentives and other benefits. It explores the relationships between academic institutions, industry, policymakers, and institutional actors, and highlights how collaborations between public and private sectors drive economic growth. The book further provides insights into how these zones foster innovation, attract foreign investment, and promote regional advancement through an in-depth analysis of SEZ types such as export processing zones, free trade zones, and high-tech parks.
Drawing on global case studies, the book identifies key governance structures and labor policies that enhance SEZ performance. It also examines how strategic interventions can address labor market challenges, especially in developing countries. The book will appeal to scholars, policymakers, and stakeholders seeking to understand the role of SEZs in economic and employment growth worldwide.
