    February 21, 2020
    En distinguant trois économistes reconnu(e)s pour leurs travaux sur l'approche de la pauvreté, les Nobel 2019 ont redonné ses lettres de noblesse à l'économie du développement. Mais, cette nomination c'est aussi la validation d'une méthode d'analyse, jusqu'alors essentiellement utilisée en médecine, méthode d'expérimentation aléatoire, encore appelée randomisation. C'est, donc, un nouveau tournant que prend la recherche économique, celui d'une démarche empirique commencée il y a une ...

Last year, extreme weather events associated with climate change – floods, violent storms, droughts, and forest fires –occurred on all inhabited continents. In at least ...
  • The Case for Regional Policy: Design and Evaluation

    February 15, 2020
    Is regional policy necessary? If so, under what circumstances? The first part of the chapter discusses the rationale behind the existence of (or the need for) regional policies in general. Cases in which excessive concentration or inequality hinders national economic growth are natural candidates for regional policies. If concentration and inequality favor national growth and competitiveness, regional interventions call for a different sort of argument, such as national unity or coh ...

    L’AERONAUTIQUE AU MAROC Histoire d’un succès inattendu
    Authors
    Alfredo Da Gama e Abreu Valladão
    February 14, 2020
    L’écosystème aéronautique marocain représente l’un des plus beaux cas de réussite industrielle dans un pays en développement. Bien sûr, le Maroc ne produit pas d’avions. Le marché mondial de l’aviation est dominé par un duopole constitué de l’Américain Boeing et de l’Européen Airbus. Une suprématie écrasante, renforcée encore récemment par l’acquisition des divisions commerciales des deux derniers concurrents significatifs dans le domaine des monocouloirs courts courriers : le Canad ...

    Angola’s prospects for reconstruction and development of its poor connectivity infrastructure are heavily dependent upon the export performance of its oil sector. Using an interregional input-output table for Angola, we estimate comprehensive measures of trade in value added revealing different hierarchies of interregional and international trade integration, with implications for regional inequality in the country. By encompassing the subnational perspective in the case study of an ...

    Brazil is in dire need of more and better infrastructure investments
    Authors
    Otaviano Canuto
    January 31, 2020
    A recent Ipsos survey found the Brazilian population to be the most dissatisfied with infrastructure services (transportation, energy, water and telecommunications) among the 28 countries covered by the work. Not surprising if we observe the lack of infrastructure investments in Brazil since the 1980s. According to estimates by the economist Cláudio Frischtak, from Inter. B, while Brazil's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) doubled in real terms between 1990 and 2016, the stock of infrast ...
