    Data and programs

  • The raw data and the Ok routines needed to obtain all the tables and graphs in Picci (2002b). With particular reference to the 1862-1924 reconstruction of the regional series of public investments by the central administration.

  • The provincial public investments (1954-1998) and the public capital stocks estimates (1970-1998) in Picci (2002a). (Note: these data update and substitute the public investment/capital data in Bonaglia and Picci (2000). Simply reaggregate if regional, instead of provincial, data are needed).
