Each chapter begins with an empirical question that is later answered using data in the Evidence-Based Economics feature. As a result of the text's practical emphasis, students will learn to apply economic principles to guide the decisions they make in their own lives.   MyEconLab is not included.

Tuttavia, le numerose e significative novità intervenute sia sul piano costituzionale che legislativo e giurisprudenziale nei quasi tre anni trascorsi dalla precedente edizione ci hanno spinto a dare alle stampe questo nuovo testo. Si tratta di novità che attengono sia alla forma di governo che alla forma di Stato. Sotto il primo profilo vanno ricordate soprattutto le modifiche che hanno riguardato il numero dei parlamentari e la parificazione dell’elettorato attivo per Camera e Senato. Modifiche che sono appena divenute operative e che già hanno prodotto i loro effetti sul terreno dei regolamenti parlamentari. Modifiche che sono intervenute in un quadro generale, sempre in ordine alla forma di governo, caratterizzato da sviluppi singolari: dalla formazione del Governo Draghi, alla vicenda relativa alla rielezione di Mattarella alla Presidenza della Repubblica, alla conclusione anticipata della legislatura. Tutto ciò mentre risulta ulteriormente accentuata l’atrofizzazione della legge parlamentare. Sotto il secondo profilo, quello della forma di Stato, al di là degli sviluppi legislativi e giurisprudenziali (specie della giurisprudenza costituzionale) in tema di diritti di libertà, va sottolineata la ripresa del dibattito sull’assetto dell’autonomia regionale. Più in particolare, accantonata la prospettiva di rimettere mano al testo del Titolo V della seconda parte della Costituzione, così come riformato nel 2001, sta prendendo corpo l’ipotesi dare attuazione del regionalismo differenziato, previsto dall’art. 116, co. 3, Cost. Tale ipotesi fa oggi parte ufficialmente del programma dell’attuale Governo ma ha suscitato e suscita numerose perplessità in ordine alla sua compatibilità col disegno costituzionale complessivo nonché all’impatto che questo istituto è in grado di produrre sull’impianto generale del nostro regionalismo. Quelli segnalati non sono che alcuni dei profili presi in considerazione per rendere il testo il più possibile aggiornato e avvertito degli sviluppi che si registrano nel nostro contesto poilitico-istituzionale. Nel concludere il nostro lavoro vogliamo render noto che per questa nuova edizione ci siamo avvalsi della preziosa collaborazione del Prof. Giovanni Tarli Barbieri che vogliamo ringraziare così come ringraziamo il gruppo di giovani che si è fatto carico del compito di raccogliere e ordinare il necessario materiale documentario e composto dai dottorandi di ricerca Giovanni Aversente, Jacopo Mazzuri e Leonardo Alberto Pesci, dall’assegnista di ricerca Edoardo Caterina e dal ricercatore a tempo determinato Matteo Giannelli.
