Rate Setting Mechanism For The Philippine Domestic Shipping, Anicia Criselda Del Rosario-Toledo

World Maritime University Dissertations

The Philippine domestic or interisland shipping probably is one of the few, if not the only, water transport in Asia that is subject to regulations. It is the protection of the public interest that the government, just like a few in the world, regulates public services or utilities, and one of these services is the water transportation. Among the many areas of regulation is the setting and prescription of rates by the government, and by this, the procedure for rate setting is used and consistently applied to any rate restructuring or adjustment. The rate adjustment formula, however, gained criticisms and …

Ibpp Research Associates: Seattle, Washington, United States Of America, Catherine Stupar

International Bulletin of Political Psychology

The article is a November 30, 1999 interview of two Pakistani representatives by IBPP Research Associate Catherine Stupar at the World Trade Organization's 3rd Ministerial Series, Seattle Round.

IBPP Commentary. The conflations of political rhetoric by privileged speakers with phenomenologies of the spoken for--viz., the wretched of the earth--are as timeless as they are intractable. Too often, the privileged come and go, while the wretched of the earth remain.

Author commentary is included in the article.

The Assault On The Global Economy, Murray L. Weidenbaum

Murray Weidenbaum Publications

The global economy is under assault by a strange alliance of radical groups and several mainstream environmental organizations. The outfits from the far left are long-term opponents of the capitalist system, both at home and abroad, so their opposition to trade between nations is neither new nor newsworthy. It is surprising, however, that organizations like the Sierra Club and Friends of the Earth have joined this effort to oppose the modern economy. This paper attempts to respond to these views. Isolationist policies are a foolhardy, futile pursuit in today's interconnected, globalized economy.

Political Correctness, Stephen Morris

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

An informed advisor wishes to convey her valuable information to an uninformed decision maker with identical preferences. Thus she has a current incentive to truthfully reveal her information. But if the decision maker thinks the advisor might be biased in favor of one decision, and the advisor does not wish to be thought to be biased, the advisor has a reputational incentive to lie. If the advisor is sufficiently concerned about her reputation, no information is conveyed in equilibrium. In a repeated version of this game, the advisor will care.

Unit Root Log Periodogram Regression, Peter C.B. Phillips

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Log periodogram (LP) regression is shown to be consistent and to have a mixed normal limit distribution when the memory parameter d = 1. Gaussian errors are not required. Tests of d = 1 based on LP regression are consistent against d < 1 alternatives but inconsistent against d > 1 alternatives. A test based on a modified LP regression that is consistent in both directions is provided.

Coordination Risk And The Price Of Debt, Stephen Morris, Hyun Song Shin

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Creditors of a distressed borrower face a coordination problem. Even if the fundamentals are sound, fear of premature foreclosure by others may lead to pre-emptive action, undermining the project. Recognition of this problem lies behind corporate bankruptcy provisions across the world, and it has been identified as a culprit in international financial crises, but has received scant attention from the literature on debt pricing. The apparent multiplicity of equilibria is a barrier to development of this issue in asset pricing, but this multiplicity is only apparent. Without common knowledge of fundamentals, the incidence of failure is uniquely determined provided that …

Coordination Risk And The Price Of Debt, Stephen Morris, Hyun Song Shin

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Creditors of a distressed borrower face a coordination problem. Even if the fundamentals are sound, fear of premature foreclosure by others may lead to pre-emptive action, undermining the project. Recognition of this problem lies behind corporate bankruptcy provisions across the world, and it has been identified as a culprit in international financial crises, but has received scant attention from the literature on debt pricing. Without common knowledge of fundamentals, the incidence of failure is uniquely determined provided that private information is precise enough. This affords a way to price the coordination failure. Comparative statics on the unique equilibrium provides several …
