Book Description
A region known for its volatility, Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) has suffered severe economic and social setbacks from crises—including the COVID-19 pandemic. These crises have taken their toll on careers, wage growth, and productivity. Employment in Crisis: The Path to Better Jobs in a Post-COVID-19 Latin America provides new evidence on the effects of crises on the region’s workers and firms and suggests several policy responses that can bolster long-term and inclusive economic growth. This report has three key findings. First, crises lead to persistent employment losses and accelerate structural changes away from the formal sector. This change occurs more through reductions in the creation of formal jobs than through job destruction. Second, some workers recover from crises, while others are permanently scarred by them. Low-skilled workers can suffer up to a decade of lower earnings caused by crises, while high-skilled workers rebound fast, exacerbating the LAC region’s high level of inequality. Formal workers suffer smaller employment and wage losses in localities with higher rates of informality. And the reduced job flows caused by crises decrease welfare, but workers in localities with more job opportunities, whether formal or informal, bounce back better. Third, crises’ cleansing effects can increase efficiency and productivity, but these effects are dampened by the LAC region’s less competitive market structure. Rather than becoming more agile and productive during economic downturns, protected sectors and firms gain market share and crowd out others, trapping valuable resources. This report proposes a three-pronged mix of policies to improve the LAC region’s responses to crises: • Create a more stable macroeconomic environment to smooth the impacts of crises, including automatic stabilizers such as unemployment insurance and short-term compensation programs; • Increase the capacity of social protection and labor programs to respond to crises and coalesce these programs into systems that complement income support with reemployment assistance and reskilling opportunities; and • Tackle structural issues, including the lack of product market competition and the spatial dimension behind poor labor market adjustment—a “good jobs and good firms†? agenda.
Crises and Migration
Author: Enrique Coraza de los SantosPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031070593
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 209
Book Description
This book critically examines the association between the notions of crisis and migration in the context of Latin America, and from three different perspectives: first, it analyzes the discourses based on the concept of crisis employed by the media, academic researchers, civil society organizations and the state to frame human mobility issues; second, it investigates migrants’ agency under conditions of crisis; and third, it discusses whether “migration crisis” is a conjunctural or structural phenomenon in the region. Chapters in this contributed volume investigate the crisis-migration nexus in seven Latin American countries – Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Mexico, Nicaragua and Uruguay – by discussing different human mobility phenomena, such as the migrant caravans that departed from Central America bound to Mexico and the United States; the Nicaraguan exodus caused by the political crisis in the country; the perception of Venezuelan migrants in Colombia’s media; the presence of Caribbean migrants in Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina. Crisis and Migration: Critical Perspectives from Latin America will be of interest to a wide range of social scientists interested in migration studies, as well as to policy makers and civil society organizations. This book offers a fresh look at the way we conceive, represent, and think about the relationship between crisis and human mobility. As the volume’s contributions show, a critical examination of the notion of crisis is a first step towards a more comprehensive understanding of the plight of present-day migrants worldwide.
Gender Perspectives and Gender Impacts of the Global Economic Crisis
Author: Rania AntonopoulosPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 113675492X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
With the full effects of the Great Recession still unfolding, this collection of essays analyses the gendered economic impacts of the crisis. The volume, from an international set of contributors, argues that gender-differentiated economic roles and responsibilities within households and markets can potentially influence the ways in which men and women are affected in times of economic crisis. Looking at the economy through a gender lens, the contributors investigate the antecedents and consequences of the ongoing crisis as well as the recovery policies adopted in selected countries. There are case studies devoted to Latin America, transition economies, China, India, South Africa, Turkey, and the USA. Topics examined include unemployment, the job-creation potential of fiscal expansion, the behavioral response of individuals whose households have experienced loss of income, social protection initiatives, food security and the environment, shedding of jobs in export-led sectors, and lessons learned thus far. From these timely contributions, students, scholars, and policymakers are certain to better understand the theoretical and empirical linkages between gender equality and macroeconomic policy in times of crisis.
Libertad de emprender

ISBN: 8483566435
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 373
Book Description
El actual modelo económico en el mundo occidental se caracteriza por un sobredimensionamiento del Estado que ha provocado déficit público, desempleo y bajas tasas de crecimiento económico. Esta obra defiende la necesidad de recuperar las bases del libre mercado que hicieron triunfar al sistema capitalista occidental y que ahora están aplicando con éxito Corea del Sur, Taiwán, Hong Kong y Singapur, casos que se estudian pormenorizadamente en este trabajo. Alentar al individuo a desarrollarse plenamente por sí mismo, sin olvidar a los más necesitados, favorecer el espíritu emprendedor, la tolerancia y la autonomía, fomentar la cooperación recíproca y voluntaria sin restricciones ni privilegios y con un Estado limitado que proteja la propiedad privada y los contratos individuales son algunas de las recetas propuestas para superar la situación actual y volver a un camino de crecimiento sostenido.

El jefe psicópata
Author: Hugo MarietánPublisher: Libros del Zorzal
ISBN: 9875992755
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
El psicópata con poder está en su salsa. Su natural narcisismo le devuelve una y otra vez una imagen embellecida que justifica, en todo, su accionar; no hay resquicio, en su mente, para el error propio. Sin error no hay arrepentimiento y sin arrepentimiento no hay corrección del rumbo, sino persistencia. Su obrar psicopático se ajusta a sus códigos propios y lo hace impermeable e intolerante a las críticas. El que lo critica no es un adversario, sino un enemigo. El líder no psicópata adversario del psicópata, en cambio, es una persona que dirige personas y basa su poder en el consenso, en la discusión. Al no saber que se opone a un psicópata trata de elaborar sus estrategias basadas en un error: la empatía, “si yo estuviese en su lugar…”. El psicópata no piensa como él, no es empático. Es un depredador voraz e impiadoso. Espero contar con un lector que se atreva a lo nuevo, que se despoje de prejuicios e ideologías, que no confunda distinguir con discriminar, y que me acompañe en este apasionante laberinto de desmesuras que conforman la mente del psicópata (Hugo Marietan).
