How to subscribe to NEW MEDIT
Market internationalisation, expansion of the European Union, increasingly stronger relationships between different economic and social systems, application of WTO agreements, and environmental policies are essential in determining the present and future scenarios of domestic and international economies.
Above all, the Mediterranean basin is, as usual, at the cross roads of the cultural, economic and religious issues pervading its northern and southern shores.
The ever increasing interest in these phenomena calls for a greater knowledge and insight of the economic, social and cultural conditions of the countries involved and of the corresponding existing relationships among them. Its interest in the study and diffusion of the problems regarding international economic cooperation, induced the Italian Institute in Bari of Ciheam to sponsor the founding of an international journal to look into the processes of social-economic transformation of the countries of the Mediterranean basin and thus provide a forum for the scientific and technical views of the specialists in this geographic region.
Topics
NEW MEDIT is a quarterly review published by the IAM in Bari, the Italian Institute of Ciheam. It is a new edition of the former journal, Medit, which was first published in 1990.
Economics, agriculture, and environment are the key words of the subjects dealt with in the review. The papers tackle the different problems characterising the economy and the agriculture of the Mediterranean countries, with a multi-disciplinary approach,, and the relationships between them. NEW MEDIT is an information and scientific analysis tool for getting a deeper insight into the economic and the social transformations of agriculture and the rural societies as well as in agro-food networks of the Mediterranean Basin.
The articles are published in English or French, with an abstract in both languages.
NEW MEDIT is run by an editorial board consisting of experts from differents scientific and professional fields from various Mediterranean countries. Articles submitted for publication are evaluated by the editorial board and by outside readers chosen on account of their expertise.
