Beauty as a factor of economic and social development

Rodolfo Baggio and Vincenzo Moretti

MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: We discuss here how beauty can be considered a determinant for economic and social growth and what is its importance. We do this by following a line which links beauty with creativity and innovation; commonly reputed the main engines of development, especially in a globalized and highly technological and competitive world, in which many traditional differences in terms of space, time, size, and economic power have dramatically changed.
