Download or read book La empresa espa ola ante la crisis del modelo productivo written by José Carlos Fariñas García and published by Fundacion BBVA. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lograr que España vuelva a una senda estable de crecimiento requiere caminar hacia un modelo de crecimiento basado principalmente en las ganancias de productividad. Para ello las transformaciones en el ámbito de la empresa son esenciales. Este libro estudia la empresa española y su entorno desde una perspectiva microeconómica. Se utilizan bases de datos que ofrecen información de un número representativo de empresas para estudiar distintos aspectos relevantes agrupados en torno a tres ejes. El primero de ellos es la productividad y su relación con la externalización de actividades, con la regulación de los servicios y con las capacidades de gestión de los directivos. La segunda parte de la monografía se centra en las actividades de I+D+i de las empresas españolas: el papel de la competencia, las características de las empresas según su estrategia de I+D+i y la importancia del tamaño, entre otras. El tercer eje considera el impacto de la crisis en dos ámbitos: el componente cíclico de la inversión en intangibles y la situación económico-financiera de las empresas. Esta publicación continúa con la línea de investigación del Ivie y de la Fundación BBVA, dedicada al estudio de la productividad como determinante del crecimiento económico a largo plazo. En esta ocasión la aproximación considera a la empresa como el centro de atención, en lugar de examinar agregados nacionales o sectoriales. Este enfoque permite profundizar en el conocimiento de los determinantes de la productividad y aporta luz sobre las grandes diferencias que existen dentro del mundo empresarial. Para ello se ha contado con especialistas académicos expertos en el análisis microeconómico de cada uno de los temas tratados. Esta obra presenta un análisis riguroso para todos aquellos lectores, tanto académicos como gestores de empresas y de política económica, que quieran conocer y profundizar en los puentes que unen la situación macroeconómica española con las decisiones y el entorno empresarial.
Download or read book Crises and Transformation in the Mediterranean World written by Jordi Catalan Vidal and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-09-17 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection presents an economic history of Catalonia and its economic crises, from Roman times to the political difficulties of the present day. It considers how the strong identity of the Catalan people has been reinforced in critical episodes such as the commercial revolution of the Late Medieval Age, the 1640 rebellion, the Succession War of 1705-1714, the industrial revolution of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and the strong repression during early Francoism. The book also explores how historical parallels from Catalonia’s past might shed light on the long-term consequences of the Great Recession of 2007-9 and recovery in the EU, showing how the typical Mediterranean approach of adjusting to crises by depreciating currencies and expanding public deficits has been less straightforward during the most recent financial crisis. A particularly deep slump has contributed to fostering the claim for independence of Catalonia in recent times, echoing larger dissatisfaction with EU monetary policy. With a comprehensive overview of major events in Catalonian economic history and their broader implications to European political economy and development, this book will be of interest to students and academics in economic history, social history, and monetary economics.
Download or read book Towards a Comparative Analysis of Social Inequalities between Europe and Latin America written by Pedro López-Roldán and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-13 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access volume identifies the common and specific aspects of social mechanisms that generate inequalities, through comparative analyses of different dimensions in which inequalities are expressed. It includes studies on social inequalities in 5 European and 5 Latin American countries, along 11 thematic axes: inequalities in the labour market and labour trajectories; asymmetries in the relationship between training and employment; inequalities in work and family life; educational inequalities; geographical and social inequalities: ethnicity and language; social inequalities, migration and space; uncertainty, strategies, resources and capabilities; inequality of opportunity: intergenerational social mobility; social policies; gender inequalities; and research methodology. This volume is the result of a large collaborative project on social inequality funded by the European Commission: the International Network for Comparative Analysis of Social Inequalities. Taking into account diverse perspectives and approximations, the collaborators have created a general analytical framework as a model of analysis of social inequalities. The various contributions in this volume help readers gain a global outlook and help reflect on social inequalities in a comparative perspective. This volume addresses social science graduate and postgraduate students, researchers, social policy makers, as well as a broader academic audience interested in social inequality.
