This paper examines the current global scene of distributional disparities within-nations. There are six main conclusions. First, about 80 per cent of the world’s population now live in regions whose median country has a Gini not far from 40. Second, as outliers are now only located among middle-income and rich countries, the ‘upwards’ side of the ‘Inverted-U’ between inequality and income per capita has evaporated (and with it the statistical support there was for the hypothesis that posits that, for whatever reason, ‘things have to get worse before they can get better’). Third, among middle-income countries Latin America and mineral-rich Southern Africa are uniquely unequal, while Eastern Europe follows a distributional path similar to the Nordic countries. Fourth, among rich countries there is a large (and growing) distributional diversity. Fifth, within a global trend of rising inequality, there are two opposite forces at work. One is ‘centrifugal’, and leads to an increased diversity in the shares appropriated by the top 10 and bottom 40 per cent. The other is ‘centripetal’, and leads to a growing uniformity in the income-share appropriated by deciles 5 to 9. Therefore, half of the world’s population (the middle and upper-middle classes) have acquired strong ‘property rights’ over half of their respective national incomes; the other half, however, is increasingly up for grabs between the very rich and the poor. And sixth, Globalisation is thus creating a distributional scenario in which what really matters is the income-share of the rich — because the rest ‘follows’ (middle classes able to defend their shares, and workers with ever more precarious jobs in ever more ‘flexible’ labour markets). Therefore, anybody attempting to understand the within-nations disparity of inequality should always be reminded of this basic distributional fact following the example of Clinton’s campaign strategist: by sticking a note on their notice-boards saying “It’s the share of the rich, stupid”.

This thesis contains three chapters. The first chapter uses a general equilibrium framework to simulate and compare the long run effects of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and of health care costs reduction policies on macroeconomic variables, government budget, and welfare of individuals. We found that all policies were able to reduce uninsured population, with the PPACA being more effective than cost reductions. The PPACA increased public deficit mainly due to the Medicaid expansion, forcing tax hikes. On the other hand, cost reductions alleviated the fiscal burden of public insurance, reducing public deficit and taxes. Regarding welfare effects, the PPACA as a whole and cost reductions are welfare improving. High welfare gains would be achieved if the U.S. medical costs followed the same trend of OECD countries. Besides, feasible cost reductions are more welfare improving than most of the PPACA components, proving to be a good alternative. The second chapter documents that life cycle general equilibrium models with heterogeneous agents have a very hard time reproducing the American wealth distribution. A common assumption made in this literature is that all young adults enter the economy with no initial assets. In this chapter, we relax this assumption – not supported by the data – and evaluate the ability of an otherwise standard life cycle model to account for the U.S. wealth inequality. The new feature of the model is that agents enter the economy with assets drawn from an initial distribution of assets. We found that heterogeneity with respect to initial wealth is key for this class of models to replicate the data. According to our results, American inequality can be explained almost entirely by the fact that some individuals are lucky enough to be born into wealth, while others are born with few or no assets. The third chapter documents that a common assumption adopted in life cycle general equilibrium models is that the population is stable at steady state, that is, its relative age distribution becomes constant over time. An open question is whether the demographic assumptions commonly adopted in these models in fact imply that the population becomes stable. In this chapter we prove the existence of a stable population in a demographic environment where both the age-specific mortality rates and the population growth rate are constant over time, the setup commonly adopted in life cycle general equilibrium models. Hence, the stability of the population do not need to be taken as assumption in these models.

Discussions on the production of housing for residents of low income, in Brazil, has come a long, but still no great solutions. Not only a political problem, the issue of housing involves also social and economic issues. From the beginning there was a downward grade of the slum villages more sophisticated more precarious, as if the social scale. And that is what this work will be done. In an attempt to produce forms of housing for low-income population, but not to be a mere product of capitalism, or political propaganda, but to try to reach a real solution to the problem. The project will propose new forms of construction, use of renewable energy, reuse of water and other, besides new forms of construction, the project aims to create a sustainable education to future residents

Lo sviluppo urbano avvenuto negli ultimi 20 anni soprattutto nelle grandi città, ma anche in quelle più piccole, è stato definito con il termine americano “urban sprawl”. In linea del tutto generale, lo sprawl può essere definito come la tendenza delle aree urbane a svilupparsi in maniera dispersa e disorganizzata nelle campagne circostanti. I principali impatti del fenomeno riguardano il consumo e l’impermeabilizzazione del suolo oltre a forti impatti su tutte le altre matrici ambientali. Per una corretta pianificazione necessita di essere studiato e quantificato nelle sue differenti declinazioni. Nella presente tesi vengono riportati i risultati della analisi diacronica nel Comune di Carpi (Provincia di Modena) attraverso una sequenza temporale di mappe dell’uso/copertura del suolo (1954,1976,1997,2003,2008) appositamente redatte. Vengono, in particolare, analizzati gli aspetti legati allo sviluppo urbano (del comune e delle frazioni di sua competenza) al fine di evidenziare l’occorrenza di sprawl. Ciò è stato fatto attraverso l’analisi degli andamenti dell’area urbana e di quella agricola nel tempo, delle trasformazioni principali avvenute nel territorio (sia in termini qualitativi che quantitativi), dell’evoluzione della rete infrastrutturale e infine mediante il calcolo di indici propri dell’ecologia del paesaggio utilizzati in molti studi sullo sprawl urbano. Dai risultati di questa analisi emerge che il territorio in esame si è fortemente trasformato dal 1954 al 1976; in particolare l’urbanizzazione è avvenuta in un primo tempo a carico del centro principale di Carpi e in seguito (1976-2008) ha interessato maggiormente le frazioni secondarie e l’edificato discontinuo lungo le principali infrastrutture viarie. Questo aspetto è attribuibile al fenomeno dello sprawl in termini di sviluppo periurbano e di invasione delle campagne. Il calcolo degli indici ha evidenziato che l’area urbana totale è fortemente dispersa, sia rispetto al centro principale che considerata come totale, fin dal 1954 (alta entropia relativa di Shannon) e contemporaneamente il territorio agricolo si presenta frammentato (Patch Density e Mean Patch Size) e con un’eterogeneità ambientale abbastanza limitata; questi indici non mostrano però un andamento che indichi un aumento dello sprawl nella sequenza temporale. Ciò che gli indici rilevano è l’urbanizzazione veloce e compatta avvenuta tra il 1954 ed il 1976. Il presente studio rivela quindi l’inadeguatezza degli indici scelti ad evidenziare il fenomeno dello sprawl negli ultimi vent’anni nel territorio d’indagine a causa della bassa sensibilità a trasformazioni molto moderate ed a scale di dettaglio dell’area urbana molto piccole.

Neste artigo faz-se uma análise das características distributivas do processo Kaldor-Pasinetti, assumindo-se que o setor governamental incorre em persistentes déficits que podem ser financiados através de diferentes instrumentos, como a emissão de títulos e de moeda. Através dessa abordagem é possível estudar como a atividade governamental afeta a distribuição de renda entre capitalistas e trabalhadores e assim obter generalizações do Teorema de Cambridge em que versões anteriores como as de Steedman (1972), Pasinetti (1989), Dalziel (1991) e Faria (2000) surgem como casos particulares. _________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT

This paper deals with the interaction between fictitious capital and the neoliberal model of growth and distribution, inspired by the classical economic tradition. Our renewed interest in this literature has a close connection with the recent international crisis in the capitalist economy. However, this discussion takes as its point of departure the fact that standard economic theory teaches that financial capital, in this world of increasing globalization, leads to new investment opportunities which improve levels of growth, employment, income distribution, and equilibrium. Accordingly, it is said that such financial resources expand the welfare of people and countries worldwide. Here we examine some illusions and paradoxes of such a paradigm. We show some theoretical and empirical consequences of this vision, which are quite different and have harmful constraints.

O câncer do colo do útero tem se configurado como uma das principais causas de morte no mundo. Do total de mortes ocorridas no mundo em 2005, essa doença foi responsável por 7,6 milhões, ou seja, 13% desse total, sendo que mais de 70% ocorreram em países de média ou baixa renda. No Brasil é a segunda causa de morte, representando 10,3% do total, excluídas as causas indeterminadas, ficando atrás somente de doenças cardiovasculares. O presente estudo foi realizado por meio da análise de dados secundários sobre os procedimentos realizados no Centro Especializado de Atendimento à Mulher no que diz respeito às ações de prevenção do câncer do colo do útero e das DSTs. Teve como objetivos analisar os dados referentes à prevenção do câncer do colo do útero e de DSTs nas mulheres a faixa de idade de 25 a 64 anos, atendidas no Centro Especializado de atendimento à Mulher do município de Araçuaí - Minas Gerais e descrever a faixa de maior incidência de câncer de colo do útero e de DSTs a partir da análise dos dados de registro do Centro Especializado de Atendimento à Mulher. Os resultados mostraram que há uma necessidade de aperfeiçoar as ações de prevenção e aumentar o acesso aos exames preventivos, bem como, ampliar as ações de prevenção para mulheres jovens, com foco na faixa etária de 25 a 34 anos. Conclui-se que as Unidades Básicas de Saúde precisam incorporar no seu cotidiano realização das atividades de prevenção do câncer do colo do útero.
