    – insults,
    – an alarm,
    – apology of crime,
    – insider trading,
    – infringement of copyright,
    – dissemination of personal data, including “sensitive” data.
  2. Although Long Term Economy is not responsible for the articles content, bloggers are recommended to write in line with the principles of the Long Term Economy. Below is a brief description of our mission:

    Currently, policy makers, economic operators and every person make their decisions taking into account just the effects on a short-time horizon (1 to 5 years). This decision-model is unsustainable in a long term perspective, because of the deleterious effects it has on the environment (e.g., an investment with a 5 year timeframe will certainly not take into account the effects on the environment), on the whole society (a shortsighted thinking feeds the intergenerational conflict and increases the social conflict) and on the economy itself (such a model can damage the resources of a territory, that will see its value falling in the long period).

    So what can we do? The Association proposes a new economic model named ‘Long Term Economy,’ a concept developed by Dario Ruggiero in 2011 with the creation of the web-site www.lteconomy.it/en. This model helps (through analysis, articles, interviews, case studies, conferences, promotion of companies) companies and institutions think in a Long Term Perspective. That means incentivizing all the operators (peaple, firms, institutions) to take decisions which first of all take care of:
    Nature
    Culture
    Social stability
    Economic stbility in a Long Term Perspective
