A Dynamic Approach To Inflation Targeting In Transition Economies, Lucjan T. Orlowski
A Dynamic Approach To Inflation Targeting In Transition Economies, Lucjan T. Orlowski
WCBT Faculty Publications
This study views inflation targeting as a viable monetary regime for more advanced transition economies. A dynamic approach to the trajectory of disinflation and to the flexibility of direct inflation targeting is presented in the context of achieving monetary convergence to the EU/AMU. The candidate countries are advised to begin from strict inflation targeting and to follow with a more flexible inflation targeting regime before they establish a necessary ‘foundational credibility’ and monetary stability. These steps, ultimately followed by a euro-peg, are necessary in preparing for accession to the eurozone. The early experiences of the Czech Republic and Poland with …

Estimating The Economic Value Of The Ocean In A National Income Accounting Framework, Charles S. Colgan
Estimating The Economic Value Of The Ocean In A National Income Accounting Framework, Charles S. Colgan
Publications
A key part of the effort to estimate the economic value of the ocean is to develop estimates of the appropriate values of the goods and services traded in the market economy. Such estimates should include the output of industries associated with the ocean, as well as other measures of economic activity, including income generated, employment, the number of firms, etc. Providing the information that permits seeing the economy of the ocean within the context of other economic activity requires preparing estimates that are consistent with the National Income and Product
Accounts (NIPA). The key component is Gross Product Originating …
Trade Liberalization And International Migration: The Philippine Case, Fernando T. Aldaba
Trade Liberalization And International Migration: The Philippine Case, Fernando T. Aldaba
Economics Department Faculty Publications
The paper examines the determinants of international migration in the Philippines. Specifically, it looks at the relationship of trade and migration. It proposes an eclectic migration model and shows by regression analysis that goods and labor mobility are substitutes in the medium and long terms. In the short run, as economies expand due to market reforms, migration may still continue. Other determinants of international migration include the economic growth of the country and specific factors related to the destination countries like wage rates and the existence of networks. Political stability in the Philippines did not turn out to be significant. …

A Strategy For Rural Financial Market Reform: Applying The Financial Systems Approach In Ghana, Harlan M. Smith Ii, Abor Yeboah
A Strategy For Rural Financial Market Reform: Applying The Financial Systems Approach In Ghana, Harlan M. Smith Ii, Abor Yeboah
Economics Faculty Research
We construct, using methods advocated in one strand of the Financial Systems Approach literature, a reform-and-renewal program for one of Ghana’s struggling Rural Banks--the Kaaseman Rural Bank. Questionnaire results, local informal financial practices, recent institutional innovations in Ghanaian finance, the experiences of successful “Nontraditional” rural finance institutions in developing countries, and the operating structure of the Rural Bank program indicate that this bank can implement a group-lending scheme that will reduce significantly its transaction costs and those of its customers. We thus demonstrate how the Financial Systems Approach can be employed to promote sustainable rural financial intermediation in a specific …
Globalization And Race Hierarchy In The United States, James Jennings
Globalization And Race Hierarchy In The United States, James Jennings
New England Journal of Public Policy
National economies have become irreversibly globalized while racial and ethnic divisions continue to be a reality in many societies. The author has set forth three different scenarios in an attempt to explain the link between globalization and racial and ethnic relations: (1) globalization limits national growth, thus contributing to increased racial and ethnic tensions; (2) globalization does not affect racial and ethnic relations either positively or negatively; and (3) globalization expands domestic economies, consequently helping to reduce racial and ethnic tensions within national borders. This article explores these scenarios and shows that globalization through immigration and movement of capital can …

Les 35 Heures, Tout N'Est Pas Noir, Thierry Warin
Thierry Warin
Si l’on n’y prend pas garde, la réduction du temps de travail légal entraînera des effets non anticipés par le gouvernement. L’un d’entre eux est celui de l’augmentation du « travail au noir ». Aujourd’hui, les salariés sont contraints à ne pas dépasser 39 heures. S’ils le désirent, ils peuvent travailler moins en utilisant les contrats à temps partiel, mais en aucun cas, ils ne peuvent dépasser cette durée légale. Pourtant, certains d’entre eux utilisent leur temps libre pour arrondir les fins de mois. Des métiers sont plus propices à ces activités illégales : qui n’a jamais utilisé les services …
The Interactions Of Eco-Labeling, Environment, And International Trade, Yi Qian
The Interactions Of Eco-Labeling, Environment, And International Trade, Yi Qian
University Avenue Undergraduate Journal of Economics
A simple graphical model has been developed to examine the relationship between eco-labelling, international trade and environment. This paper analyses that labelling can possibly have adverse effect on environment when the supply of environment-friendly good is greater than the demand of the friendly good pre-labelling (fig.2). In a dynamic setting, however, this situation could be reversed by shifts of demand and supply curves of environment-friendly products (fig.3). The theoretical model predicts change of product prices, which in turn can alter international trade. In bilateral trade, the interaction with country 2 will result in an improvement in the environmental situation in …

Kenyan Women And The Harambee: Community Development Or Unpaid Work?, Anne Gathuo
Kenyan Women And The Harambee: Community Development Or Unpaid Work?, Anne Gathuo
Trotter Review
Since gaining independence from Britain in 1963, the Kenyan government has encouraged self-help activity, known as "harambee" which is aimed at supplementing government efforts in the provision of social services. The term harambee conjures positive images of community spirit and people pooling together for a common cause. Indeed, the term is synonymous to community development. The United Nations Report on Community Development and Economic Development defines community development as the process by which the efforts of the people themselves are combined with those of government authorities to improve the economic, social and cultural conditions of communities, to integrate these communities …
Microdata Panel Data And Public Policy: National And Cross-National Perspectives, Richard V. Burkhauser
Microdata Panel Data And Public Policy: National And Cross-National Perspectives, Richard V. Burkhauser
Center for Policy Research
This paper focuses on the movement of data-based social policy analysis from a single-country cross-section frame to a multi-country panel frame. It provides examples of policy insights this movement to panel data has permitted, both with respect to economic well-being and behavior--using data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID), the British Household Panel Study (BHPS), the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP), and the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). It also suggests fruitful areas for future panel data-based policy research.
Responding To Poverty Through Community Development: The Role Of Women In South Africa, Junette Davids
Responding To Poverty Through Community Development: The Role Of Women In South Africa, Junette Davids
Trotter Review
The World Bank reported that during the past three decades the developing world has made enormous economic progress. This is illustrated in the rising trend for incomes and consumption: between 1965 and 1985 consumption per capita in the developing world went up by almost 70%. Midgley, also reported that developing countries have recorded high rates of economic growth, achieved high degrees of industrialization and made significant social progress. Given this scenario one would assume that poverty has also decreased markedly. However, even though some developing countries have recorded high rates of economic growth, achieved high degrees of industrialization, and made …
