Although the economies of Latin America and the Caribbean grew more slowly in 2011 than in 2010, there were some improvements on the employment front. Workers benefited from the region’s satisfactory economic performance in an increasingly complex international setting. The unemployment rate fell from 7.3% in 2010 to 6.7% in 2011 thanks to a halfpercentage- point gain in the urban employment rate. Both rates are at levels that have not been seen for a long time. The proportion of formal jobs with social benefits rose as well, and underemployment declined. The average wage and the minimum wage both increased in real terms, albeit only moderately. Economic performance and the employment situation varied widely among the subregions. The unemployment rate dropped by 0.6 percentage points in South America but 0.4 percentage points in the countries of the northern part of Latin America. In the countries of the Caribbean, the employment rate was up by 0.2 percentage points. The data show that substantial labour market gaps and serious labour-market insertion issues remain. This is especially the case for women and young people, for whom unemployment rates and other labour indicators are still unfavourable. The second part of this report looks at whether the fruits of economic growth and rising productivity have been distributed equitably between workers and companies. Between 2002 and 2008 (the most recent expansionary economic cycle), wages as a percentage of GDP fell in 13 of the 21 countries of the region for which data are available and rose in just 8. This points to redistribution that is unfavourable to workers, which is worrying in a region which already has the most unequal distribution of income in the world. Underlying this trend is the fact that, worldwide, wages have grown less than productivity. Beyond the ethical dimension of this issue, it jeopardizes the social and economic sustainability of growth. For example, one of the root causes of the recent financial crisis was that households in the United States responded to declining wage income by borrowing more to pay for consumption and housing. This turned out to be unsustainable in the long run. Over time, it undermines the labour market’s contribution to the efficient allocation of resources and its distributive function, too, with negative consequences for democratic governance. Among the triggers of this distributive worsening most often cited in the global debate are market deregulation and its impact on financial globalization, technological change that favours capital over labour, and the weakening of labour institutions. What is needed here is a public policy effort to help keep wage increases from lagging behind increases in productivity. Some countries of the region, especially in South America, saw promising developments during the second half of the 2000s in the form of a positive trend reversal in wages as a percentage of GDP. One example is Brazil, where a minimum wage policy tailored to the dynamics of the domestic market is considered to be one of the factors behind an upturn in the wage share of GDP. The region needs to grow more and better. Productivity must grow at a steady pace, to serve as the basis for sustained improvements in the well-being of the populace and to narrow the gap between the economies of Latin America and the Caribbean and the more advanced economies. And inequality must be decreased; this could be achieved by closing the productivity gap between upgraded companies and the many firms whose productivity is low. As set out in this report, the region made some progress between 2002 and 2010, with labour productivity rising at the rate of 1.5% a year. But this progress falls short of that seen in other regions such as Sub-Saharan Africa (2.1%) and, above all, East Asia (8.3%, not counting Japan and the Republic of Korea). Moreover, in many of the countries of the region these gains have not been distributed equitably. Therein lies a dual challenge that must be addressed: continue to increase productivity while enhancing the mechanisms for distributing gains in a way that will encourage investment and boost worker and household income. The Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) and the International Labour Organization (ILO) estimate that the pace of economic growth in the region will be slightly slower in 2012 than in 2011, in a global economic scenario marked by the cooling of several of the main economic engines and a high degree of uncertainty concerning, above all, prospects for the euro zone. The region is expected to continue to hold up well to this worsening scenario, thanks to policies that leveraged more favourable conditions in the past. This will be felt in the labour markets, as well, so expectations are that unemployment will edge down by as much as two tenths of a decimal point.

Regional trade agreements have had a significant presence in the design of international and productive policies in Latin American and Caribbean countries since the early 1950s. Fifty years later, the region has not reached the degree of economic inter-relation found, for instance, in Western Europe, but the concern with promoting regional integration has been a tradition in an impressive amount of speeches and declarations by policy makers in the last decades. The weakening of multilateral negotiations and the multiplicity of bilateral agreements with countries in other regions might affect regional trade both via trade diversion and through investment decisions, considering a larger time horizon. International capital movement might affect exchange rates and output growth, hence influencing trade. At the same time the need for new, broader negotiating agenda, from simply dealing with trade issues to taking into consideration topics not directly related to trade but rather to competition, labour standards, environmental issues and others increase the difficulties in designing integration strategies. Even more so if the group of countries that aim at integrating their economies present markedly different characteristics. This article – an extension of a presentation made at the German Development Institute Conference on Regional Economic Integration Beyond Europe held in Bonn in December, 2007 - discusses these and other aspects related to regional integration in Latin America and the Caribbean.

The world is living a change of era. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals represent the international community’s response to the economic, distributive and environmental imbalances built up under the prevailing development pattern. This document, presented by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) to its member States at its thirty-sixth session, provides an analytical complement to the 2030 Agenda from a structuralist perspective and from the point of view of the Latin American and Caribbean countries. The proposals made here stem from the need to achieve progressive structural change in order to incorporate more knowledge into production, ensure social inclusion and combat the negative impacts of climate change. The reflections and proposals for advancing towards a new development pattern are geared to achieving equality and environmental sustainability. In these proposals, the creation of global and regional public goods and the corresponding domestic policies form the core for expanding the structuralist tradition towards a global Keynesianism and a development strategy centred around an environmental big push.

Este estudo teve como contexto uma escola ribeirinha no município de Breves, situado na Ilha do Marajó, no Estado do Pará. Objetivo mestre: Analisar as representações sociais de jovens-alunos do ensino fundamental da Escola Municipal de Ensino Fundamental São Francisco, da Comunidade São Francisco, no município de Breves sobre exploração sexual nas balsas do Marajó e as implicações nas suas vidas escolares. Objetivos condutores: Identificar o perfil dos alunos-jovens; Verificar as imagens e os significados destes alunos-jovens sobre a exploração sexual juvenil; Destacar as objetivações e as ancoragens como elementos que compõem as Representações Sociais de alunos-jovens e alunas-jovens sobre a exploração sexual juvenil; Relacionar as Representações Sociais de alunos e alunas jovens sobre a exploração sexual juvenil nas balsas do Marajó e as implicações nas suas vidas escolares. Participaram deste estudo 16 jovens, na faixa etária entre 14 e 20 anos, matriculados entre a 4ª e 6ª série do ensino fundamental. Tratou-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa-descritiva. O referencial teórico foi a Teoria das Representações Sociais – TRS, com base em Moscovici (2010) e Nascimento (2002). A análise de dados se deu a partir dos referenciais metodológicos de Franco (2008) e Nascimento e Moraes (2010); As Representações Sociais dos jovens-alunos sobre a exploração sexual juvenil nas balsas do Marajó constituíram-se no Rio de possibilidades, cuja imagem se apresenta pelo encantamento, e Rio que traga, imagem representada pelo desencantamento. Além destas RS, destacaram-se significações cuja imagem foi o sentimento de culpa, que se destaca como significado de ser julgado pela comunidade, ter a atribuição de balseira, medo de sofrer ameaças e pelo sentimento de ausência do poder público. A partir destas significações, ressaltamos enquanto ponto de ancoragem o silêncio. Este sentimento que não se pode ouvir brada de sentidos, ora pelo medo de sofrer alguma espécie de julgamento social ora pelo sentimento de esvaziamento que esta condição da exploração sexual se materializa em suas vivências. As implicações escolares constituídas a partir das Representações Sociais de jovens-alunos sobre a exploração sexual juvenil foram: fragilização na formação escolar e no processo psicossocial de desenvolvimento juvenil; falta de aprendizagem; desatenção nos conteúdos e atividades escolares; desinteresse pela escolarização (Abandono escolar e Repetência escolar). Estes elementos e as análises teóricas articuladas a partir dessas Representações Sociais nos apontam como conclusão que a exploração sexual nos rios e furos da paisagem amazônica ainda é pouco visível, uma vez que as ações do poder público ainda não dão o lugar para este fenômeno no sentido de seu combate e enfrentamento. Entendemos, portanto, que deve haver uma ação educativa que possibilite o enfrentamento da exploração sexual juvenil.

Esta dissertação desenvolve uma análise sobre a dinâmica do campo de relações estabelecido em torno da construção da hidrelétrica de Belo Monte, observada a partir das ações empreendidas no processo de licenciamento ambiental. O objetivo principal foi desvelar as lógicas que organizam ações e relações entre agentes e instituições e determinam o desenrolar dos procedimentos de licenciamento da hidrelétrica. Ficou evidenciado pela análise o enfraquecimento deste instrumento da política ambiental, em razão da produção de uma desregulamentação das regras estabelecidas para licenciar a obra que foi identificada durante o acompanhamento do processo. Reforçando a argumentação do que foi observado, o trabalho analisa elementos e conteúdos presentes nos discursos que comprovam a reprodução da ideologia desenvolvimentista enquanto visão predominante nas políticas nacionais para a Amazônia. Através de revisão bibliográfica, consulta documental e pesquisa de campo, a dissertação mostra que quem mobiliza um grande capital político em favor do projeto e tem mais força no interior do campo de relações são os agentes e instituições em maior aproximação com as questões apontadas como estratégicas nas políticas de desenvolvimento. Neste contexto, segundo as reflexões produzidas neste trabalho, o desequilíbrio entre a força de instituições como Casa Civil, Ministério de Minas e Energia, Setor Elétrico Brasileiro, Ibama, Ministério Público e Movimentos Sociais marca a produção da desregulamentação do licenciamento ambiental, às custas do uso deturpado dos instrumentos nele contidos e dos conceitos nos quais se baseia a sua condução. O resultado desse enfraquecimento vai se refletir, na forma de uma irresponsabilidade institucionalizada, sobre um conjunto mais amplo de direitos presentes na ordem jurídica e no regime democrático brasileiro.
