Informality: Exit and Exclusion
ISBN: 9780821370926 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. 'Informality: Exit and Exclusion' analyzes informality in Latin America, exploring root causes and reasons for and implications of its growth. The authors use two distinct but complementary lenses: informality driven by 'exclusion'' from state benefits or the circuits of the modern economy, and driven by voluntary 'exit' decisions resulting from private cost-benefit calculations that lead workers and firms to opt out of formal institutions. They find both lenses have considerable explanatory power to understand the causes and consequences of informality in the region. 'Informality: Exit and...

Remittances and Development: Lessons from Latin America
ISBN: 9780821368701 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Workers' remittances have become a major source of financing for developing countries and are especially important in Latin America and the Caribbean, which is at the top of the ranking of remittance receiving regions in the world. While there has been a recent surge in analytical work on the topic, this book is motivated by the large heterogeneity in migration and remittance patterns across countries and regions, and by the fact that existing evidence for Latin America and the Caribbean is restricted to only a few countries, such as Mexico and El Salvador. Because the nature of the...

Does the Investment Climate Matter?: Microeconomic Foundations of Growth in Latin America
ISBN: 9780821376874 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Although the Latin American region's growth rates are at a three decade high, they have been historically disappointing in relative terms, which cannot be dissociated from the microeconomic environment in which firms operate. Policy makers may need to complement their focus on macroeconomic stability with an increased emphasis on microeconomic reforms. By providing empirical evidence linking actual firm performance to shortcomings in Latin America's investment climate, the book discusses policies that could have a significant impact on firm productivity by improving the environment in which...

Economic Growth in Latin America and the Caribbean: Stylized Facts, Explanations, and Forecasts
ISBN: 9780821360910 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 163 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The 1960s and 70s were decades of solid growth rates for Latin America and the Caribbean region as a whole. This changed in the 1980s, when the growth rate of output per capita fell to negative values and its volatility increased notably. However, Latin America's economic growth became positive again in the 1990s, with truly remarkable turnarounds in Argentina, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Peru. This recovery was driven in most cases by large increases in the growth of total factor productivity, reflecting the initial benefits from the process of economic reforms initiated in the...

ISBN: 9780821376195 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. There is an increasing consensus in the scientific community that climate change is a real and present threat. Despite the large uncertainty on the timing, magnitude and even the direction of some of the physical and economic effects of this phenomenon, it is widely accepted that these effects will be regionally differentiated and that developing countries and lower income populations will tend to suffer the most. In this context, it is critical that Latin American and Caribbean countries develop their own strategies for adapting to the various impacts of climate change and for contributing...
