Abstract

English Abstract: This note aims to provide an initial assessment of the territorial labor-market data reconstructed under the aegis of the SVIMEZ initiative for the 150th anniversary of the Unification of Italy. Various time series were reconstructed within the 150-year time range going from 1861 to 2011. In order to assess the potential relevance of these series, we utilize them to (a) develop some considerations on the territorial dualism of the Italian labor market; (b) illustrate the increasing importance - over the last thirty years - of female and tertiary employment. The data reconstruction methods are described in Appendix.
