Riassunto (Italiano)
the work deals with the issue of diversity of consumption, starting from the related themes to which it is linked and taking a look at the main economic theories in this regard. After this initial look, the empirical analysis will focus on a sample of data provided by ISTAT, regarding the consumptions of about 15000 Italian families in 2015. After setting up a model of analysis, we will conduct a regression that will lead us to analyze the revenue allocation over the different categories of spending. In particular we will focus on the dispersion concerning food and non-food commodities, trying to provide economic and sociological explanations to the different patterns of consumption.
