Investor Protection and Business Creation
2003
We study the effects of investor protection on the availability of external finance, entrepreneurship, and creation of new firms in an equilibrium search model of private capital markets.

The results indicate that anything that increases (decreases) entrepreneurship also increases (decreases) the creation of start-ups. The effect of investor prote…

La activación de la inmigración
2020
Los enfoques convencionales sobre las migraciones han tendido a considerar frecuentemente a los inmigrantes como sujetos pasivos en sus procesos de incorporación a las sociedades de recepción. En cambio, cada vez contamos con más muestras de la iniciativa de los propios inmigrantes como actores de procesos de cambio, así como nuevas perspectivas de investigación que tratan de dar cuenta de este giro: el reconocimiento de la autonomía de las migraciones, la relevancia de las capacidades y la agencia de los migrantes en diferentes ámbitos y su contribución al desarrollo de las sociedades de recepción. En realidad, los inmigrantes despliegan diversas estrategias, luchas y resistencias contribu…
