abstract: 'Italy exhibits a dramatic level of territorial heterogeneity in terms of

  socioeconomic dynamics and in the economic position of women. We employ

  this territorial variance to assess the impact of selected policies and

  institutions on men''s and women''s employment using microeconomic data.

  Such an analysis provides results partly different from what was

  expected on the basis of cross-country aggregate evidence on

  industrialized countries. Aggregate growth and tertiarization of the

  economy are surprisingly found beneficial only to men''s employment,

  while culture and discrimination are relevant for women''s. Social

  Assistance is found highly significant too, with the provision of

  services being more beneficial to women''s employment than monetary

  transfers.'
