Federico II de Prusia : el rey flautista

En un momento histórico en el que las tendencias musicales en Europa estaban a medio camino entre el Barroco y el Clasicismo, confluyeron en la corte de Federico el Grande una serie de músicos que trabajaron para el rey prusiano y que compusieron una gran cantidad de música para flauta, instrumento que él tocaba. La actividad musical del Berlín de esos años se convirtió así en relevante para el mundo flautístico. Profundizaremos en este trabajo en la figura del monarca, en la relación de éste con sus músicos y en las características principales de la música de la segunda mitad del siglo XVIII.

Doctors without borders: The returns to an occupational license for Soviet immigrant physicians in Israel

Re-licensing requirements for professionals that move across borders arewidespread. In this paper, we measure the returns to an occupationallicense using novel data on Soviet trained physicians that immigrated toIsrael. An immigrant re-training assignment rule used by the IsraelMinistry of Health provides an exogenous source of variation inre-licensing outcomes. Instrumental variables and quantile treatmenteffects estimates of the returns to an occupational license indicate excesswages due to occupational entry restrictions and negative selectioninto licensing status. We develop a model of optimal license acquisitionwhich suggests that the wages of high-skilled immigrant physicians in thenonphysician sector outweigh the lower direct costs that these immigrantsface in acquiring a medical license. Licensing thus leads to lower averagequality of service. However, the positive earnings effect of entry restrictionsfar outweighs the lower practitioner quality earnings effect that licensinginduces.
