| Abstract: | Museum networks are proliferating in the Mediterranean area showing new forms of collaboration between public and private institutions. Museums and heritage conservation play a fundamental role in tourism development. The purpose of the present working paper is to provide an analysis of the museum network experience in order to define a set of useful and viable marketing strategies to be adopted by the museum management with respect to the relative tourist context. The case of the Arca Adriatica maritime museum network - a network of eight maritime museums representing the core asset of an elaborated tourist product - has been analyzed and considered particularly relevant and of peculiar interest. After the analysis of the museum network and its most important related points of interest, managerial recommendations within strategic and tactical perspectives are hence presented. |

| Abstract: | The goal of this article is to examine the current status of cultural exchanges between Korea and the EU. This paper will examine the extent to which cultural exchanges between the two regions have grown since the adoption of the Korea-EU cultural cooperation protocol in 2011. I will also explore if there are any constraints and if so, possible ways to promote further exchanges in the future. The definition of cultural exchange that this article focuses on is "achieving cultural and economic development by establishing mutual relations with people from other culture." In this context, I carefully examine cultural exchanges that can promote economic exchanges. This is approached from a cultural and diplomatic perspective aimed at capturing the hearts of the other country's general public. To that end, the article looks at two types of cultural exchange support policies at government level. Among them, I particularly focus the agreement on the co-production of audiovisual materials adopted by the "Cultural Cooperation Protocol," which was created as an annex to the Korea-EU FTA. I will then review the current status of exchanges between Korea and Europe in the field of performing arts. Finally, I end by presenting improvement measures and suggestions to expand cooperation in the cultural sector and promote co-production of audiovisual materials. It points out the need for legislative and governance improvements in carrying out government support. |

| Abstract: | The use of a language in written and formal contexts that is distinct from the varieties used in everyday communication - such as Latin in early modern Europe and Standard Arabic in the Arabic-speaking world - comes with benefits, but also with costs. Drawing on city-level data on all books and pamphlets published in Europe between 1451 and 1600, we document that the Protestant Reformation led to a sharp rise in vernacular printing, such that by the end of the 16th century, the majority of works were printed in spoken tongues rather than in Latin. This transformation allowed broader segments of society to access knowledge. It was also associated, as we show, with a significant diversification in the composition of authors and book content. Finally, we provide evidence that an increase in vernacular printing at the city level is strongly correlated with higher population growth - a proxy for economic development - and in the birth of notable innovators and creative individuals. In this way, we argue that the vernacularization of printing was an important driver of European dynamism in the early modern period. |
