The papers collected in this special issue have mostly been selected among the papers presented at the Business Systems Laboratory’s 2nd International Symposium on ‘System thinking for a sustainable economy: advancements in economic and managerial theory and practice’, which was organised on 23-24 January 2014 in Rome, Italy.
