Latin America has been strongly affected by the international crisis and recession since late 2008. In comparison to historical experience, how has Latin America coped with the global crisis, which has been the role of different transmission mechanisms, and how have the region's structural and policy conditions affected its sensitivity to foreign shocks? Moreover, what policies can protect the region better from world crises and shocks, and to which extent should it rely on a strategy of close trade and financial integration into a world economy punctuated by shocks and crises? This paper addresses the latter questions in three steps. First, by assessing empirically the sensitivity of growth in the region's seven major economies during 1990-2009 to large number of structural and cyclical factors, based on high-frequency panel-data estimations. Second, by using the latter results to decompose the amplitude of GDP reductions in both recessions according to the individual and combined contribution of the different growth factors. Third, to derive the main implications of the results for the choice of macroeconomic regimes and development strategies.

The document examines how mergers and lobbying groups influence subsidy policies in a partial equilibrium model. Domestic and foreign firms compete in a host country's market for a homogeneous good. The optimal output of foreign firms can be ambiguously affected by the host country's subsidy policy. Domestic firms offer political contributions tied to the government's policy decision. The government sets subsidies to maximize contributions and social welfare, taking domestic firm mergers into account.

This document summarizes a paper on using soft power and diplomacy in counter-terrorism strategies, with a focus on Turkey. It begins with definitions of hard power and soft power, noting that hard power approaches to counter-terrorism have not always been effective. It then discusses reasons for terrorism, including social and political injustice, the belief that violence can create change, lack of education and poverty. The document reviews literature on the role of diplomacy and aims of soft power in counter-terrorism. It identifies specific soft power strategies like conducting information campaigns and creating negative images of terrorists. It concludes that while effective use of force is important, preventing radicalization through soft power is even more critical to counter-terrorism

This document discusses the transition from a bi-polar world dominated by the US and USSR to a multi-polar world with multiple power centers emerging. It notes China and Russia's increasing economic and military power and their efforts to assert influence globally.

Terrorism causes, effects, and solutionsSrun Sakada
This document defines terrorism and discusses its causes and impacts. Terrorism is defined by the FBI and US Department of Defense as the unlawful use or threat of violence against people or property to intimidate for political goals. It discusses two types of terrorism: national (directed internally without foreign influence) and international (foreign-based or directed). Causes mentioned include social/political injustice, belief that violence achieves goals, religion, illiteracy, and injustice. Impacts involve economic losses from death/damage, societal fear and suspicion, and complicated international politics. Solutions proposed are education to understand cultural differences, eliminating root causes like funding sources, and addressing injustices that radicalize individuals.

This document discusses measuring the informal economy in urban areas. It notes that while much research has focused on developing countries, the informal economy is also present in American cities through street vendors, day laborers, and other activities. Local governments need accurate data on the informal economy to better support economic development and understand urban economic trends, but often view informal workers as problems rather than important economic contributors. The paper argues for new research methods to better quantify the informal economy at the neighborhood level in order to inform public policy decisions.

Este documento estudia empíricamente el efecto de las transferencias locales (públicas y privadas) en la probabilidad de alternancia partidista en los municipios de Jalisco, México. Los resultados del modelo de duración muestran que las transferencias privadas evitaron la primera alternancia, mientras que los modelos de panel indican que las transferencias públicas fueron más efectivas para mantener el poder entre administraciones consecutivas. El documento también revisa la literatura sobre el uso estratégico de recursos públicos para mantenerse en el poder.
Este documento presenta un modelo para analizar cómo la distancia ideológica entre partidos políticos afecta negativamente la provisión de bienes públicos. El modelo argumenta que una mayor distancia ideológica entre los partidos y los ciudadanos hace que sea más rentable para los partidos el uso clientelar del empleo gubernamental, asignando más recursos a este fin y menos a bienes públicos. Esto ocurre sin que medie un conflicto social, sino debido a que una mayor distancia ideológica hace menos costoso para los partidos atra
This document analyzes the adequacy of GARCH models for analyzing oil price behavior. It applies two non-parametric tests, the Hinich portmanteau test and REVERSE test, to the Mexican oil price series to explore non-linear dependence and time irreversibility. The results suggest strong evidence of a non-linear structure and time irreversibility, implying that innovations are not independent and identically distributed. The non-linear dependence is also found to be episodic rather than consistent, according to a windowed test. Therefore, the study concludes that GARCH models cannot fully capture the properties of the oil price series.
Este documento presenta un modelo formal para analizar cómo los procesos democráticos electorales y la transparencia afectan la eficiencia gubernamental.

Este documento busca identificar episodios de dependencia no lineal en el tipo de cambio mexicano entre 1995 y 2010 utilizando el estadístico de Bicorrelación Hinich Portmanteau. Se encuentran 22 ventanas temporales significativas que rechazan la hipótesis de linealidad, las cuales podrían estar asociadas a eventos políticos y económicos. Los modelos ARCH/GARCH no son adecuados para analizar esta serie debido a que no pueden capturar la dependencia no lineal.
Este documento presenta un modelo formal para analizar cómo la competencia política influye en la eficiencia del gobierno en cuanto al tamaño de la burocracia y la provisión de bienes públicos. El modelo muestra que la competencia política genera incentivos para un exceso de empleo burocrático y una provisión ineficiente de bienes públicos, en contraste con argumentos que relacionan positivamente la competencia política y la eficiencia del gobierno.
Este documento discute la Teoría Espacial del Voto (TEV) como una vertiente de la economía política neoclásica que ayuda a entender las políticas públicas implementadas por los gobiernos cercanos a las elecciones. La TEV supone que el objetivo de los actores políticos es complacer al mayor número de electores posible para ganar adherentes y elecciones, en lugar de asumir que el gobierno actúa de manera benevolente. El documento también revisa brevemente el surgimiento de la economía política como campo y sus principales aportes.
Este documento presenta un modelo espacial de competencia política para analizar cómo la provisión de bienes públicos y el tamaño de la burocracia se ven afectados por la competencia entre dos partidos políticos. El modelo supone que los partidos compiten en un espacio ideológico unidimensional y que uno de los partidos en el gobierno usa recursos públicos para producir bienes públicos y emplear trabajadores. Los resultados muestran que en cualquier equilibrio político-económico, la burocracia es excesiva y la prov
This document presents a formal analysis of patronage politics. It begins with an overview of patron-client relationships and how they have been used across various societies and political systems. It then presents a formal model to analyze patronage politics, focusing on political competition between two parties when one is the incumbent party that can allocate public resources toward public goods or patronage. The model considers how parties choose political platforms, and how citizens choose which party to support based on ideology, public goods provision, and patronage benefits. The analysis seeks to explain the existence and resilience of patronage in different contexts.

Este documento analiza cómo la falta de coordinación entre los gobiernos municipales de una zona metropolitana puede polarizar el valor de la tierra y la distribución del ingreso, dificultando las políticas redistributivas. Explica que la competencia entre municipios lleva a regulaciones débiles que permiten una urbanización centrada, aumentando las diferencias en el valor de la tierra y concentrando los ingresos altos en el centro y los bajos en la periferia. Esto genera problemas para implementar políticas sociales donde se necesitan

Este documento presenta un modelo para analizar cómo la distancia ideológica entre dos partidos políticos que compiten afecta la provisión de bienes públicos. El modelo argumenta que una mayor distancia ideológica entre los partidos y los ciudadanos tiene una relación negativa con la provisión de bienes públicos. Esto se debe a que la mayor distancia ideológica hace más rentable para los partidos el uso del empleo gubernamental de manera clientelar para ganar apoyo político, en lugar de proveer bienes públicos.
