Cleavages Of Political Values Among Generations In Brazil, Ibpp Editor
Cleavages Of Political Values Among Generations In Brazil, Ibpp Editor
International Bulletin of Political Psychology
This article was written by Professor of Psychology Fabián Echegaray, Professor of Sociology Paulo Krischke, and Director of Institutional Ethics Aluir Toso. All three researchers are at the Universidad Federal de Santa Cantarina. They posit and provide supporting theory and data that values which are postmaterialist (emphasizing psychological well-being and self-actualization) as opposed to materialist (emphasizing materialistic goods) are more likely to be displayed by younger than older Brazilians and by those with higher than lower social class. Thus older, lower class Brazilians will be most materialist and younger, higher class Brazilians will be most postmaterialist. The paper was presented …

Foreign Direct Investment In Nigeria: Evidence From Time Series Data, Akpan H. Ekpo
Foreign Direct Investment In Nigeria: Evidence From Time Series Data, Akpan H. Ekpo
Economic and Financial Review
This paper examines the relationship between foreign direct investment (FDI) in Nigeria and some macroeconomic variables. The preliminary empirical results, covering the period 1970-1994, suggest that high debt service and low credit ratings discourage FDI. FDI is also sensitive to real per capita income and low rates of inflation.

Africa And The New World Order, Andrew Ewoh
Africa And The New World Order, Andrew Ewoh
Andrew I.E. Ewoh
What is the plight of Africa under the New World Order? The paper argues that the NWO poses severe economic problems for African nations. It offers two main practical solutions for these problems and plausible policy implications. The analysis concludes by acknowledging that structural adjustment programs as traditionally suggested by the International Monetary Fund and democratization of the polity will not guarantee economic prosperity for the continent.

Globalization And Local Economic Development: Intersections Between The Industrial Economy And Regional Industrial Planning, Center For Economic Development
Center for Economic Development Technical Reports
By now it is widely accepted that we live in a global economy. We are more likely to buy goods from Korea than Kansas, we may have pension funds invested in companies on the Tokyo stock market as well as New York's, and we may work for a corporation with headquarters in Brussels rather than Boston. But despite our sense of participating in a world economy, it is difficult to understand how that world's economy intersects with the national or local economies with which we are more familiar. This is particularly significant for the regional economic development planner. Despite the …

The existing evidence on the volume effects of exchange rate risk and exchange rate regime choice is examined. The analysis involves estimating the effects of cross-country differences in exchange rate regime on export and import elasticities using a continuous measure of the degree of exchange rate flexibility. It is argued that risk for firms involved in international trade tends to decrease with greater exchange rate flexibility. In formulating our hypotheses we argued that the cross-country variation in U.S. export elasticities with respect to the real exchange rate and foreign GDPs is primarily attributable to the cross- country variation in bilateral …

Direct Effect Of International Economic Law In The United States And The European Union, Ronald A. Brand
Direct Effect Of International Economic Law In The United States And The European Union, Ronald A. Brand
Articles
One of the most important and challenging issues in international law is the manner in which we address the relationship between the individual and the international legal system. The traditional framework, in which we set a "sovereign" government between the individual and the development and application of the rules, is no longer sufficient in all circumstances. The fact that governments feel insecure or threatened by the application of international legal rules in actions brought by individuals is not sufficient reason to preclude that development. The purpose of government is not to perpetuate traditional power structures, it is to provide security …

Gatt, Dispute Settlement And Cooperation: A Reply, Dan Kovenock, Marie Thursby
Gatt, Dispute Settlement And Cooperation: A Reply, Dan Kovenock, Marie Thursby
Economics Faculty Articles and Research
In our 1992 paper, we analyzed GATT and its dispute settlement procedure (DSP) in the context of a supergame model of international trade featuring both explicit (GATT) and implicit (non-GATT) agreements. Our paper departed from the previous economics literature on GATT enforcement (see, for instance Hungerford (1991) and Ludema (1990)) by incorporating the ``twin engines of international obligation and retaliation'' (Hudec, 1990). International obligation imposed a cost of violating an explicit international agreement, such as GATT, while retaliation could take place either within the rules stipulated by the international agreement or by punishment outside of the agreement. In Section 2 …
