The Barcelonnettes: an example of network-entrepreneurs in XIX century Mexico. An explanation based on a theory of bounded rational choice with social embeddedness

A theory of network-entrepreneurs or "spin-off system" is presented in this paper for the creation of firms based on the community’s social governance. It is argued that firm’s capacity for accumulation depends on the presence of employees belonging to the same social/ethnic group with expectations of "inheriting" the firm and becoming entrepreneurs once they have been selected for their merits and loyalty towards their patrons. Such accumulation is possible because of the credibility of the patrons’ promises of supporting newcomers due to high social cohesion and specific social norms prevailing in the community. This theory is exemplified through the case of the Barcelonnettes, a group of immigrants from the Alps in the South of France (Provence) who came to Mexico in the XIX Century.

Evaluating active labor markets in Romania

We evaluate the presence of effects from joining one of four active labour market programs in Romania in the late 1990s compared to the no-program state. Using rich follow-up survey data and propensity score matching, we find that three programs (training and retraining, self-employment assistance, and employment and relocation services) had success in improving participants' economic outcomes and were cost-beneficial from society's perspective. In contrast, public employment was found detrimental for the employment prospects of its participants.

Why did London become the main money market? Monetary Policy, Arbitrage and European Money Market Integration in 18th century

How did the leading capital market start to attract international bullion? Why did London become the main money market? Monetary regulations, including the charges for minting money and the restrictions on bullion exchange, have played the key role in defining the direction of the flow of international bullion. Countries that abolished minting charges and permitted the free movement of bullion were able to attract international bullion, and countries that applied minting taxes suffered an outflow of bullion. In these cases monetary authorities tried to limit bullion movement through prohibitions on domestic bullion exchange at a free price, and tariffs and quantitative restrictions on bullion exports. The paper illustrates the logic of international monetary flow in the 18th century, using empirical evidence for England, France and Spain. The first section defines and measures monetary policy, and the second section introduces minting charges into the arbitrage equation in order to explain the logic of bullion flow between the pairs of nations England-France, England-Spain and France-Spain. The conclusion emphasises the importance of monetary policy in the creation of leading money markets.

Between specialization and globalization. The marketing of agrarian products and its environmental impacts seen from a historical perspective: the province of Barcelona in the mid-nineteenth century

Ecological economics has five good reasons to consider that economic globalisation, spurred by commercial and financial fluxes, to be one of the main driving forces responsible for causing environmental degradation to our planet. The first, is the energy consumption and the socio-environmental impacts which long-distance haulage entails. The second, is the ever-increasing flow of goods to far-away destinations which renders their recycling practically impossible. This is particularly significant, because it prevents the metabolic lock of the nutrients present in food and other agrarian products from taking place. The third, is that the high degree of specialization attained in agriculture, forestry, cattle, mining and industry in each region, generates deleterious effects not only on the eco-landscape structure of the uses of the soil, but on the capability to provide habitat and environmental functions to maintain biodiversity as well

El jove Martin Heidegger i el concepte de temps exposat a Ésser i temps

Estudi elaborat a partir d’una estada a l’ Albert Ludwigs Universität, Alemanya, entre els mesos de maig i octubre del 2006.El tema del temps és extremadament important per a Martin Heidegger. I el seu pensament al respecte no pot ésser comprès adequadament si no tenim en compte la gran influència que diversos filòsofs hi van exercir. Aristòtil i Agustí són elsmés destacats, tal i com el propi Heidegger afirma a les seves lliçons marburgueses del semestre d’estiu de 1927. Sense elles, no es pot entendre el complex entramat terminològic ni les idees fonamentals sobre la temporalitat. Idees que apareixen publicades en diverses obres seves. El transfons filosòfic de cadascun d’aquests escrits és, en part, el concepte aristotèlic o Agustina de temps. Ésser i temps no és una obra que neixi del no res com a producte de la necessitat de l’autor de consolidar el seu currículum en vistes a una plaça docent, sinó que la publicació durant aquests darrers anys de les seves lliçons i altres escrits menors permeten observar com es va gestant la manera en que Heidegger entendrà el concepte de temps que es reflexa en aquest tractat, i que, com ja s’ha dit, es sustenta en les idees d’Aristòtil i d’Agustí al respecte. S’ha mostrat també de quina manera Heidegger porta a la pràctica la reconstrucció fenomenològica proposada pel que va ser el seu mentor, Husser, i com recondueix els conceptes fonamentals d’ambdós filòsofs, incorporant-los a la seva particular manera d’entendre el temps.
