La ciencia económica después de la crisis mundial

I am delighted to be here this evening. This is my first visit to Argentina and I am honored to be invited by the Catholic University of Argentina. I will talk about the world crisis from a Keynesian point of view, and my lecture will be divided into three parts: why did it start?; what should we be doing about it?; and what steps can we take to prevent something like this from happening again. So I will deal with “origin”, “recovery” and “reform”. Because of the speed of the recovery in this part of the world my diagnosis and prescriptions might at first glance seem less relevant to Argentina and Latin America than to Europe and the United States. But Latin America’s recovery is mainly based on rising commodity prices and commodity prices are, partly determined by what happens to the rest of the world. In a globalized world each country fate is bound up with the fate of its neighbors. Bringing about a global recovery, therefore, is in the interest of all, whether in South America or Southern Europe.

El problema de la causalidad en las ciencias económicas

[ES] En el presente artículo se aborda el problema de la causalidad en las Ciencias Económicas. Partiendo de la diferenciación entre ciencias duras y blandas, y de la supuesta clasificicación de la economía en este segundo grupo, se realiza un análisis de los diferentes paradigmas ontológicos que soportan la investigación científica, para a continuación trasladar la causalidad desde el ámbito ontológico al gnoseológico. Posteriormente se profundiza en la conjunción de la metodología hipotético-deductiva con el método correlacional, generando una causalidad probabilística. Dicha causalidad, contextualizada de forma científica, permite la realización y contrastación de inferencias predictivas, a través de las cuales las Ciencias Ecnómicas pueden encontrar su ubicación en los niveles mas extrictos de la investigación científica.

Competitive Pressure and Job Interview Lying: A Game Theoretical Analysis

We consider a job contest in which candidates go through interviews (cheap talk) and are subject to reference checks. We show how competitive pressure - increasing the ratio of "good" to "bad" type candi- dates - can lead to a vast increase in lying and in some cases make bad hires more likely. As the number of candidates increases, it becomes harder to in- duce truth-telling. The interview stage becomes redundant if the candidates, a priori, know each others' type or the result of their own reference check. Finally, we show that the employer can bene t from committing not to reject all the applicants.

Simulation of Vortex-dominant and Turbulent Flows in Natural Environment

In the present talk, the simulation of vortex dominant and turbulent flows are primarily addressed. To cope with complicated circumstances in environmental flows we illustrate the strategy of combining simplified physical model and suitable algorithm by a few examples.
