Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La economía mundial creció vigorosamente en el primer semestre de 2007, aunque la turbulencia en los mercados financieros ha empañado las perspectivas. Aunque el pronóstico para 2007 se ha visto poco afectado, la proyección de base con respecto al crecimiento mundial en 2008 se ha reducido casi medio punto porcentual con respecto al presentado en la actualización de las perspectivas de la economía mundial, en julio de 2007. Aun así, se alcanzaría con un sólido crecimiento mundial de 4 3/4%, respaldado por los sanos fundamentos económicos y el fuerte impulso de las economías de mercados emergentes. Sin embargo, las perspectivas están claramente sujetas a riesgos a la baja, centrados en torno a la preocupación de que se profundicen las tensiones en los mercados financieros y provoquen una desaceleración mundial más pronunciada. Por lo tanto, en lo inmediato las autoridades deben centrar la atención es restablecer condiciones más normales en los mercados y salvaguardar la expansión. Otros riesgos que se ciernen sobre las perspectivas se derivan de las posibles presiones inflacionarias, la volatilidad en los mercados de petróleo y el impacto en los mercados emergentes de una fuerte afluencia de divisas. Al mismo tiempo, problemas a más largo plazo, como el envejecimiento de la población, la creciente resistencia a la globalización y el calentamiento global, también son motivo de preocupación.

Download or read book Inclusive Growth written by Jordi Prat and published by Inter-American Development Bank. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Central America and the Dominican Republic had stable economic growth in 2017. The performance of the United States economy and low commodity prices, mainly oil, meant that the key indicators for the region did not change abruptly. It is worth noting that safeguarding the stability of public finances remains the main challenge for the region. In the short run, we expect the fiscal deficit and public debt to maintain their upward trend, thus putting pressure on interest rates, which would have a negative impact on economic growth. This trend has implied in downward revisions to the region’s economic outlook. Growth in the region has been higher than the rest of Latin America, but its impact on reducing poverty and improve income distribution, has been limited. The report explores options to make growth more inclusive in Central America and the Dominican Republic. It highlights the need to bolster human capital accumulation, take advantage of integration with other trade partners, and generate buffers for political decision-making in a highly uncertain environment, in order ensure that growth can benefit the highest number of people in the region.

Book excerpt: The book has been prepared by authors from different international organizations – including FAO, IFPRI, UNCTAD and ECLAC, as well as legislators and academics from prestigious Latin American universities – seeking to foster reflections for the Global Food Systems Summit, to be held in September 2021. It contextualizes the region’s food systems within a post COVID-19 pandemic scenario and raises new challenges (and opportunities) for policy makers, decision makers, the private sector, and the general public. Likewise, it offers important reflections on sustainability, from production to consumption, with the call to promote better governance of the global and regional food system. In order to face what some authors have deemed “the Syndemic of the century”, the participation of companies, research centres, academia, NGOs, government agencies and international organizations will be necessary.

Download or read book The Cuban Revolution as Socialist Human Development written by Henry Veltmeyer and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2011-11-11 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book argues that the Cuban Revolution warrants a closer look as a model of socialist human development. A re-reading of the Cuban Revolution from this angle engages unresolved issues in the theory of socialist humanism and the notion of human development popularized by the United Nations Development Programme (i.e., predicated on capitalism). UNDP economists and other agencies of international cooperation for development give a human face to a capitalist development process that is anything but humane. Socialism in Cuba has taken a very different form (socialist human development) than it did elsewhere in the twentieth century. The Cuban Revolution's unique characteristics enabled it to survive adverse conditions - a 'near-perfect storm' - that still threaten its evolution.

The 2019 revision of the World Population Prospects is the twenty-sixth edition of the official United Nations population estimates and projections, which have been prepared since 1951 by the Population Division of the Department of Economic and Social Affairs. The 2019 revision presents population estimates from 1950 until the present for 235 countries or areas, which have been developed through country-specific analyses of historical demographic trends. It builds on previous revisions by incorporating additional results from the 2010 and 2020 rounds of national population censuses as well as information from vital registration and recent nationally representative household sample surveys. The 2019 revision also presents population projections to the year 2100 that reflect a range of plausible outcomes at the global, regional and country levels. These Highlights summarise key population trends described by the estimates and projections presented in World Population Prospects 2019.
