This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les petites économies insulaires en développement (PEID) sont constituées d'un groupe d'îles dont la population est inférieur au million d'habitants et dont la superficie est le plus souvent réduite. A cette petite taille s'ajoute la contrainte d'une accessibilité coûteuse. L'une des principales particularités économiques observables dans ces petites îles en développement concerne leur taux de chômage, qui atteint dans la plupart des cas un niveau durablement élevé, compris entre 10% et 30%. Dès lors, faut-il considérer que ces PEID possèdent des caractéristiques économiques spécifiques qui les rendent susceptibles d'être particulièrement exposés au chômage ?

This book was released on 2002 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study questions whether, after a decade of remarkable progress in trade reform, Latin America and the Caribbean really integrates into the global market, offering a promising rapid growth, and good jobs for its workers. For despite the incidence of the loosely called "knowledge economy", the concern prevails that most countries' rich natural resources, still are the determining factor for exports. Policy recommendations include fostering openness to trade, market access, and foreign direct investment flows, in addition to building human capital, institutions, and public infrastructure, without disregarding the natural advantages. To this end, policymakers should aim at developing educational systems that provide quality education, focused on lifelong learning, and training activities to build human capital. Emphasis should follow on research and development (R&D) incentives, and innovations systems, arguing that countries should experiment with taxation incentives, and subsidies to promote both private, and public investments in R&D, (dependent on the institutional capacity of governments to enforce tax laws, and monitor the quality of investments). Moreover, evidence in this report, suggests that information, and communications technology (ICT) can reduce coordination costs, enabling an effective industrialization, and market access.

Download or read book Do Caribbean Exporters Pay Higher Freight Costs written by Alexander J. Yeats and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this study is to analyze transportation costs incurred by Caribbean countries on their major export products to determine whether there is evidence of freight rate discrimination against these countries, or whether their transport costs are significantly different from those of other exporters. A key finding is that a distinction must be made between freight rates for air cargo services as opposed to ocean transport. For exports by ocean carriers the empirical evidence is quite different than that for air shipments. This study also finds that Caribbean exporters are more likely to experience adverse transport costs on food and agricultural raw materials than they are on manufactured goods where a relatively high percentage of shipments are by air. The report also suggests the following lines of analysis: how the Caribbean countries might best exploit the major cost advantage they have for products exported by air, why is ocean transport less cost efficient than air freight for Caribbean countries, and why do large adverse transport cost differentials appear to be concentrated in certain product groups like food and agricultural raw materials?
