Has monetary policy been so bad that it is better to get rid of it? the case of Mexico
Motivated by the dollarization debate in Mexico, we estimate an identified vector autoregression for the Mexican economy using monthly data from 1976 to 1997, taking into account the changes in the monetary policy regime which occurred during this period. We find that 1) exogenous shocks to monetary policy have had no impact on output and prices, 2) most of the shocks originated in the foreign sector, 3) disturbances originating in the U.S. economy have been a more important source of fluctuations for Mexico than shocks to oil prices. We also study the endogenous response of domestic monetary policy by means of a counterfactual experiment. The results indicate that the response of monetary policy to foreign shocks played an important part in the 1994 crisis.Mexico ; Monetary policy ; Dollarization
Technical efficiency and spatial externalities: evidence from spanish small and middle-sized industrial firms
The aim of this paper is to analyze whether firms located inside a hypothetic cluster have a different performance in terms of technical efficiency from firms located outside. To undertake this analysis we present a methodology to overcome the restrictions suffered by this kind of studies, basically the radial efficiency measures. The methodological approach we propose is based on non-radial efficiency measures, also referred as the Russell measure. We present the main results obtained on a sample of small and middle-sized industrial firms located in the Valencian Community (Spain) to show the advantages of this methodology. Furthermore, we assess the links between the spatial location and some management characteristics at firm level.
AproximaciĂł a les tipologies cĂviques i polĂtiques del valencianisme a CastellĂł de la Plana (1977-2013).
L’article és una aproximació que mostra, a grans trets, l’evolució de les
tipologies culturals i polĂtiques del valencianisme a CastellĂł de la Plana
des de finals de la dècada dels setanta fins a l’actualitat. AixĂ, amb voluntat
de sĂntesi, l’autor pretĂ©n fer èmfasi en la importĂ ncia dels moviments
cĂvics, pedagògics, comunicatius i d’excursionisme per la conformaciĂł
d’uns sectors socials que comparteixen reivindicacions lingĂĽĂstiques, culturals
i de paĂs. De la mateixa manera, aquestes pĂ gines tambĂ© s’apropen
a les reformulacions existents al llarg d’aquestes dècades en l’expressió
polĂtica organitzada de les reivindicacions nacionals provinents
del fusterianisme, a les comarques del nord del PaĂs ValenciĂ .This article is a study which broadly outlines the evolution of the cultural
and political typologies of Valencian nationalism in CastellĂłn de la Plana
from the end of the 1970s to the present day. In order to provide a summary
of the topic, the author wishes to highlight the importance of civic,
pedagogical and communicative movements and excursion associations
as means of forming social sectors which share demands related to language,
culture and identity. In the same way, these pages also deal with
how the organised political expression of national demands, which came
from the movement led by Joan Fuster, was reformulated during these
decades in the northern area of the Valencian Region
