The Italian Association for the Study of Comparative
Economic Systems (Associazione Italiana
per lo Studio dei Sistemi
Economici Comparati -
AISSEC) was founded in Florence on April 7th, 1984. AISSEC is a non-profit association whose main
purpose is to promote study and research, both theoretical and empirical, in
the field of comparative economic systems. To attain its aim the Association
organizes conferences and scientific exchanges among its members and with
scholars of related fields, stimulates research activities, fosters the
publication of scientific works and establishes connections with similar
foreign associations. More recently, the focus of comparative research
work has been broadened to the countries belonging to the European Union, to
the Transition economies, and to the emerging countries. AISSEC is
affiliated to the Italian Society of Economists (SIE), to which also belong,
among the others, the Italian Society of Industrial Economics
(SIEPI), the Italian Society of Labour
Economics (AIEL), and the Italian Society of Public Economics (SIEP). On October 25 and 26, 1984, the Association
