Using a multidisciplinary approach, this study focuses on the link between socio-economic fragility and epidemic exposure to Covid-19 in Italy and Europe, with a triple objective: to monitor the main dimensions of increased inequalities within the economy and society through an academic literature review; to empirically understand the reasons for national differences in the spread and lethality of the Covid-19 virus at European level; to provide, on the basis of the results obtained in pursuing the previous two objectives, a key to understanding the main public policies for a healthier, more inclusive and sustainable Italy and Europe.} url={http://www.francoangeli.it/Riviste/Scheda_rivista.aspx?idArticolo=69369}, author={Andrea Marchioni and Filippo Damiani and Luca Bonacini} pages={37-52}, language={EN}}
