Mutation du patient et construction d'un marché de la santé. L'expérience française.
2008
International audience; Cet article propose une lecture comparée de deux évolutions parallèles majeures de la politique de santé : l’autonomisation du patient et la régulation par la demande. Une première tendance de fond est de prendre en considération le patient comme acteur autonome. Dans les faits, l’émergence d’un patient actif s’est traduite par la structuration d’un droit des patients privilégiant le droit à l’information et la recherche du consentement éclairé. Simultanément la politique économique met l’accent sur la demande dans la régulation de la dépense de santé. Cette double évolution conduit à l’émergence d’un consommateur de soins. Elle s’appuie sur la structuration d’un con…
Un réexamen du modèle de gains de Mincer
1986
A re-appraisal of mincer's earnings model Starting from rough measures of formal schooling and on the job training, the earning model proposed by J. Mincer (1974) suceed to explain a substantial proportion of the variance of individual earning. The explanatory power of the model can be significantly boosted by increasing the quality of the variables. In spite of the robustness of the model, the interpretation of the results is to be taken cautiously. These results can be derived from alternative theoretical hypothesis and namely to the one known as the filter hypothesis. It is shown that a specification of the earnings function consistent with the filter hypothesis is proced to be empirical…
Does the Principle of Compensation Provide a Solid Basis for Establishing Corporate Environmental responsibility: A Case study of Madagascar’s Mining…
2019
The mining sector has been criticized for its lack of environmental responsibility, but a certain amount of progress has been evident. At the same time, a number of developing countries have opted for an environmental management framework underpinned by the principle of compensation. Even though this principle is closely aligned to corporate social responsibility, it does not appear to represent the most effective way of achieving corporate social responsibility. Based on a case study in Madagascar, we examine the application of the principle within a mining project and show that its inadequacy stems from failing to consider the population’s response to the actions taken by companies. In ou…
Measuring ‘indirect’ investments in ICT in OECD countries
2019
International audience; ICT components, such as microprocessors, may be embodied in other capital goods not recorded as ICT in National Accounts. We name ‘indirect ICT investment’ the value of embodied ICT components in non-ICT investment. The paper provides estimates of ‘indirect ICT investment’ based on detailed and unpublished Supply-Use tables (SUT) in 12 OECD countries: Australia, Belgium, Canada, Chile, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Japan, Israel, Mexico, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States.Our main finding is that ICT investment appears significantly higher when considering its indirect component, the average increase being about 35%. The inclusion of i…
Do agglomeration economies are lower for polluting sectors?
2019
This article explore how the relation between productivity and local city-size can be mitigated by pollution. More specifically, we estimate agglomeration economies considering a new source of heterogeneity among industries: the degree of pollution. Due to pollution perception acting as a dispersion force, we expect net agglomeration economies to be lower for polluting firms. In fact, polluting firms may anticipate that households and other firms are reluctant to locate near sources of pollution. In this paper, we exploit spatial data on sectoral emissions for a large number of air pollutants. We define a continuous variable of pollution that varies across sectors and employment zones. Our …

International audience; Dans sa proposition de réforme de la Pac, la Commission européenne proposait, fin 2017, de remplacer les mesures environnementales par des PSE (paiements pour services environnementaux). Ce chantier est plus ou moins avancé selon les services
