In spite of increasing globalization around the world, the effects of international trade on economic growth are not very clear. I consider an endogenous economic growth model in an open economy with the Home Market Effect (HME) and non-homothetic preferences in order to identify some determinants of the different results in this relationship. The model shows how trade between similar countries leads to convergence in economic growth when knowledge spillovers are present, while trade between very asymmetric countries produces divergence and may become trade in a poverty or growth trap. The results for welfare move in the same direction as economic growth since convergence implies increases in welfare for both countries, while divergence leads to increases in welfare for the largest country and the opposite for its commercial partner in the absence of knowledge spillovers. International trade does not implicate greater welfare as is usual in a static context under CES preferences.

La presente investigación tiene como objetivo analizar cómo las relaciones bilaterales entre China y Camboya son afectadas por el interés geopolítico chino, con el fin de demostrar que éste genera un fortalecimiento de sus relaciones puesto que además de suplir necesidades alimenticias, hídricas y en mano de obra barata, es el único país de la región del Sudeste Asiático que le permite a China tener acceso militar al Golfo de Tailandia y al Mar de China Meridional, donde se encuentra en desventaja con Estados Unidos. Así, se indica que la potencia asiática formula sus acuerdos bilaterales creando relaciones de dependencia por parte de países como Camboya para que este le entregue “obligatoriamente” lo que necesita. Esta investigación se llevará a cabo por medio de una monografía con un enfoque realista. Se utilizará el método de investigación cualitativo, que se servirá de fuentes primarias como los acuerdos bilaterales entre ambos Estados.

Este estudio de caso pretende explicar los efectos del actual del régimen de propiedad intelectual de obtenciones en la seguridad y la soberanía alimentaria de México. A pesar de algunos esfuerzos hechos por parte del Estado Mexicano por defender y apoyar el modo de producción familiar a pequeña escala, los efectos de este régimen y de la liberalización del comercio han llevado a que se desarrolle más el modo de producción agrícola industrial al cual suelen acceder principalmente los medianos y grandes productores agrícolas, afectando la seguridad y la soberanía alimentaria de México.

ResumenEl presente artículo versa sobre los cambios que enfrentó la cadena de comercialización del café de Tarrazú y Orosi después de la liberalización del mercado, así como las estrategias implementadas por los beneficiadores y exportadores del grano para enfrentar las coyunturas críticas suscitadas por la ruptura del Acuerdo Internacional del Café. En este trabajo se aborda las causas del mercado libre y sus repercusiones en la cadena del café nacional, la dinámica de los eslabones del beneficiado y la exportación en cada región de estudio y las respuestas de los actores ante la crisis en los mercados.AbstractThis article focuses on the changes the Orosi and Tarrazú coffee marketing system had to deal with after the markets liberalization, and the strategies implemented by the processors and exporters of the coffee bean in order to tackle the critical situations that arose from the rupture of the International Coffee Agreement. This paper addresses the object of the free market and its impact on the domestic coffee-producing system, the dynamics of the coffee-processing and export structures in each region under study, and the key players response to the market crisis.

The first chapter provides the first evidence on the gross capital flows reactions to the financial sector reform. I establish four new stylized facts. First, the reform is associated with an average increase of 0.03pp in both gross capital flows. Second, immediately after the reform both flows decrease, in the long term they stabilize at a higher than the pre-liberalization levels. Third, the short term dynamics is governed by debt flows, while the long term dynamics are driven by all of the components. Finally, only a complex reform leads to a positive effect. The results are robust to a wide range of robustness checks. In the second chapter we develop a novel theory to explain the recent phenomenon of reshoring, i.e. firms moving back their previously offshored business activities. We firstly provide the evidence for the importance of the quality behind the reshoring decision and then, building on Antoniades (2015) we develop a dynamic heterogeneous firms model with quality choice and offshoring. In the dynamic setting the location decision entails a tradeoff between payroll and quality-related costs. In equilibrium reshoring arises as some firms initially offshore, exploit the increase in profits due to lower wages and finally return to the domestic country in order to further increase the quality. The third chapter provides the new evidence suggesting that selling through global production networks might lead to export upgrade. I relate the sector-level GVCs participation indicators derived from the international Input-Output Tables to the data on the unit values of exports at the product-exporter level. We find a strong association between the export prices and forward participation, in particular for the developing countries. We document also a less robust negative relationship between the GVCs backward participation and unit values of exports.
