Book Varieties of Capitalism

Download or read book Varieties of Capitalism written by Thomas Palley and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-17 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past twenty years there has emerged a compelling new discourse on varieties of capitalism. That discourse has an appealing common sense which challenges the view there is no alternative to free market capitalism. The initial view had a microeconomic focus that made firms the fulcrum of analysis. It distinguished between liberal market and coordinated market economies. Subsequently, there has emerged a second-generation literature which adopts a macroeconomic perspective that emphasizes differences in drivers of growth. This book provides a collection of essays that engage those second-generation concerns and questions.

Book EU Cohesion Policy Implementation   Evaluation Challenges and Opportunities

Download or read book EU Cohesion Policy Implementation Evaluation Challenges and Opportunities written by Carla Henriques and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-29 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book is the result of the 1st International Conference on Evaluating Challenges in the Implementation of EU Cohesion Policy (EvEUCoP 2022). It presents the recent findings, sparks discussion, and reveals new research paths addressing the use of novel methodologies and approaches to tackle the challenges and opportunities that are unveiled with the implementation of the EU cohesion policy. The authors cover a wide range of topics including the monitoring of data; the clearness of indicators in measuring the impact of interventions; novel evaluation methods, addressing the mid-term and terminal assessment; as well as case studies and applications on evaluations of the thematic objectives under the scrutiny of the cohesion policy, namely:• Research, technological development, and innovation; • Information and communication technologies;• Shift toward a low-carbon economy. During the 2014-2020 programmatic period, member states were required to undertake assessments to evaluate the efficacy, efficiency, and impact of each operational program. Such evaluations are generally concerned with the compliance of projects and activities with programmatic priorities, as well as with funds' absorption capacity and refer to ex-ante and ex-post assessments. Hence, this book proposes the use of novel methodologies addressing the mid-term and terminal assessments that enable performing the efficiency appraisal of the operational programs and that can support decision-makers in the selection of projects that should be awarded for funding.

Book GTAP and TiVA  Differences Between the two Databases and their Implications for Trade in Value Added Indicators

Download or read book GTAP and TiVA Differences Between the two Databases and their Implications for Trade in Value Added Indicators written by Ilaria Fusacchia and published by Roma TrE-Press. This book was released on 2022-08-27 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La frammentazione della produzione a livello globale richiede una misurazione del commercio in termini di valore aggiunto che tenga conto di come parti di valore contenuto nei beni e servizi sono aggiunte in ciascuna fase dei processi produttivi all’interno delle catene globali del valore. La qualità degli indicatori relativi al commercio in valore aggiunto dipende dalla qualità delle sottostanti tavole globali di Input-Output che a loro volta dipendono dalla qualità e disponibilità delle statistiche nazionali che ne sono alla base così come dalle tecniche di bilanciamento e stima usate nella procedura di armonizzazione. Nonostante le statistiche in valore aggiunto siano ampliamente utilizzate nella ricerca economica, non vi è coerenze tra le diverse banche dati né una procedura unica e condivisa nella costruzione dei dati su cui il commercio in valore aggiunto è stimato. Questo lavoro rappresenta un tentativo di sistematizzare le potenziali fonti di differenze tra le banche dati globali e di mostrare la risultante deviazione nelle stime degli indicatori di partecipazione alle catene globali del valore.

Book How China Is Reshaping the Global Economy

Download or read book How China Is Reshaping the Global Economy written by Rhys Jenkins and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China's growing economic involvement in Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America has been a source of major controversy. The official Chinese position maintains that the growth of bilateral relations is of mutual benefit and provides a good example of South-South cooperation. Critics on the other hand see the economic relations between China and other developing countries as highly unequal with most of the benefits accruing to China and a few local elites. They also point to negative socio-economic, political, and environmental consequences. How China is Reshaping the Global Economy: Development Impacts in Africa and Latin-America throws more light on these controversies through a comparative study of China's impact on the two regions. It looks not just at bilateral relations between China and the two regions but also analyses the changes in the global economy brought about as a result of the shift in economic activity from North America and Western Europe to Asia. This book looks at the factors which led to rapid economic growth in China and the way in which this has affected global manufacturing, commodity markets, the international presence of Chinese companies, and financial glows. It examines the different forms of Chinese economic involvement in Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America, the main drivers, and economic, social, political, and environmental consequences. It ends with a comparison of the two regions that highlights the importance of different histories and political and institutional contexts in determining the impacts of China. Since the first edition of How China is Reshaping the Global Economy: Development Impacts in Africa and Latin-America, China's role in the global economy has continued to expand and the Chinese government's foreign policy has become more assertive. The global presence of China has been marked by the expansion of the Belt and Road Initiative to almost 150 countries and the trade-war between the US and China, as well as increased Western concerns over the activities of major Chinese companies such as Huawei. This new edition documents these changes and their implications for SSA and LAC.
