Finance, globalisation, technology and inequality: Do nonlinearities matter?
2021
Abstract Relying on data for 90 economies over 1970-2015 and panel estimation techniques, we investigate how financial development, globalisation and technology affect income inequality. Our findings reveal significant nonlinearities, consistent with either Ushaped or inverted-U shaped relationships. As such, depending on whether a certain threshold value is achieved, the same determinants of income distribution exert opposite effects in different countries. Globalisation is associated with increasing inequality in most advanced economies, but with falling disparities for the large majority of emerging economies. Technology and financial development lead to increasing inequality for most em…
La competitivitŕ del comparto florovivaistico del Mezzogiorno d'Italia sul mercato internazionale
2009
The international competitiveness of flowers and ornamental plant sector of the Italian "Mezzogiorno" area - In the last few years the Italian flower and ornamental plant sector has been characterized by a significant dynamicity, becoming one of the most important sectors of the Italian agricultural system. In terms of competitiveness, however, the above sector has faced several market crises due to the globalization process which has brought about an increasing supply of flower and ornamentals in the world market. In a national context, Mezzogiorno is an important area in terms of production source for flowers and ornamental plants, in relation to both extremely favourable climatic conditi…
Developing business networking opportunities for SMEs through business ecosystem and ICT
2010
Globalisation is a new challenge for European small and medium enterprises; indeed, on one hand, it represents a threat, since new emerging companies are entering their domestic market, but on the other hand, it represents the opportunity to enter new emerging and growing markets. In order to win this challenge, European SMEs need to play the networking card; in fact, it is well acknowledged that networking can improve SMEs effectiveness and efficiency which is absolutely necessary to win the globalisation battle. Many public regional institutions are thinking about how to improve the networking capacity of their SMEs through specific programs and investments. This paper reports the results…
Japan's FDI drivers in a time of financial uncertainty. New evidence based on Bayesian Model Averaging
2021
En este artículo analizamos los determinantes del stock de FDI saliente de Japón para el período 1996–2017. Este período es especialmente relevante ya que abarca un proceso de creciente globalización económica y dos crisis financieras. Para ello, consideramos un amplio conjunto de variables candidatas basadas en la teoría, así como en análisis empíricos previos. Nuestra muestra incluye un total de 27 países anfitriones. Seleccionamos las covariables utilizando una metodología basada en datos, el análisis Bayesian Model Averaging (BMA). Además, también analizamos si estos determinantes cambian según el grado de desarrollo (emergentes vs desarrollados) o las áreas geográficas (UE vs Asia Orie…
Within and between firm trends in job polarization : the roles of globalization and technology
2019
AbstractWe analyze occupational polarization within and across firms using a census of matched employer–employee panel data from Finland in the period of 2000–2014. As in most industrialized countries, the Finnish occupational distribution has polarized over the last decades. Using decomposition analysis, we find that jobs involving low-level service tasks increase mostly through the entry dynamics, while the high-level abstract task share increases largely within continuing firms. Worker-level occupational mobility points to some skill upgrading within continuing firms, while labor force entry and retirement contribute the polarizing trend. Instrumental variables (IVs) regressions confirm …

La Educación Comparada como método para la mejora y la visualización de la Educación Musical
2018
El detrimento de la presencia de la Educación Musical en los diferentes niveles educativos en España es un hecho contrastado. Si nos fijamos en el transcurso de las numerosas leyes educativas que se han desarrollado en nuestro país podemos observar como poco a poco la música ha ido perdiendo relevancia. La principal causa de este hecho se deriva, entre otras, de la capitalización de la educación. Para combatir este efecto una de las mejores maneras es analizar cómo se van redefiniendo en otros países y regiones los diferentes sistemas educativos haciendo frente a estas adversidades. Un modo de crear estos espacios en los que compartir conocimiento y crear puntos de unión en relación con un …

Mother and offspring fitness in an insect with maternal care: phenotypic trade-offs between egg number, egg mass and egg care
2014
Background Oviparous females have three main options to increase their reproductive success: investing into egg number, egg mass and/or egg care. Although allocating resources to either of these three components is known to shape offspring number and size, potential trade-offs among them may have key impacts on maternal and offspring fitness. Here, we tested the occurrence of phenotypic trade-offs between egg number, egg mass and maternal expenditure on egg care in the European earwig, Forficula auricularia, an insect with pre- and post-hatching forms of maternal care. In particular, we used a series of laboratory observations and experiments to investigate whether these three components no…
Valsts suverenitāte Eiropas Savienībā
2017
Līdz ar globalizācijas straujo attīstību un dažādu starptautisko organizāciju kompetenču palielināšanos, tiesību zinātnē parādās nepieciešamība pārskatīt vēsturiski lietoto jēdzienu jēgu un būtību, piemērojot tos mūsdienu situācijai vai pārbaudot, vai šāda piemērošana vairs ir iespējama. Šī iemesla dēļ darba nosaukums ir “Valsts suverenitāte Eiropas Savienībā”. Darba mērķis galvenokārt bija izprast kādu ietekmi un vai vispār uz valsts suverenitāti atstāj Eiropas Savienība, kā šis jēdziens ir laika gaitā attīstījies un mainījies. Lai sasniegtu darba mērķi, tika analizēti gan vietēja, gan starptautiska mēroga normatīvie akti, tiesu nolēmumi, viedokļi un atzinumi, zinātniskā literatūra, populā…
