A Spatial Difference-in-Differences Estimator to Evaluate the Effect of Change in Public Mass Transit Systems on House Prices

2014

Evaluating the impact of public mass transit systems on real-estate values is an important application of the hedonic price model (HPM). Recently, a mathematical transformation of this approach has been proposed to account for the potential omission of latent spatial variables that may overestimate the impact of accessibility to mass transit systems on values. The development of a Difference-in-Differences (DID) estimator, based on the repeat-sales approach, is a move in the right direction. However, such an estimator neglects the possibility that specification of the price equation may follow a spatial autoregressive process with respect to the dependent variable. The objective of this pap…

La ville, la raison et le rêve : entre théorie et utopie

1996

City, reason and dream : between theory and utopia. — This paper aims at comparing two kinds of discourses about the city, that of the microeconomics of cities, which is admitted in the realm of science, and that of Utopian cities, which is not. We analyse the processes of thinking which lead respectively to theory and utopia, then we compare the ideas of man and society upon which they are grounded. Finaly, we try to enhance the similarities and disimilarities between the two series of urban space representations to which these approaches lead. This comparison may contribute to a better understanding of the real nature of the theoretical discourse and lead both to a relativization and a va…

School aspirations, cognitive skills and wage expectations of French Undergraduates

2013

en ligne : http://cemapre.iseg.utl.pt/educonf/2e3/files/submissions_to_web/Bonnard%20Claire_%20Giret%20Jean-Francois_Lambert-Le%20Mener%20Marielle.pdf; This paper aims to study the earnings expectations of first-year students at a French university and to compare them with the observed earnings of young people in the labour market for that same year. Our findings highlight the importance of the environment in which students make their choices about education. Expected earnings are proportionally higher when their parents seem to be involved in the careers guidance, even controlling for the effect of parental socio-economic status. The positive opinion of parents about the orientation or the…

Wine Tourism and On-Site Wine Sales

2013

The concept of oenotourism first appeared in the 1980s and was really developed in the 1990s although action relating to this type of tourism and vineyard visits had already begun to take place in several viticultural regions. One dimension of wine tourism is linked with the organisation of trips and the reception of visitors. In this aspect, France became a pioneer when the first Route des Vins was created in 1934 in Burgundy, followed by the Routes des Vins (wine roads) of Alsace and Champagne in 1953. This model was adopted and enhanced in Europe, followed by other great viticultural regions of the world, in particular the United States (Robert Mondavi’s objective was to educate the publ…

A review of Devenir Soi by Jacques Attali: through the lenses of liberalism and Buddhism

2015

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to reinterpret Attali’s worldview through the lenses of liberalism and Buddhism by mobilizing the relevant literature, beyond the mere book review. This paper is an essay based on the book “Devenir Soi” by Jacques Attali, published in France in 2014. These analytical grids were chosen, because freedom and self-realization are two themes that pervade the book. Design/methodology/approach – After presenting the book structure, the objective and the methodological approach, we uncover Attali’s interrogation, namely how to free oneself from the omnipresence of evil, the withering away of the State and growing xenophobic populist self-entitlement. We make …

Rapports de travail, gestion de l'emploi et valeurs culturelles en milieu rural : les transformations du modèle paternaliste en Bresse bourguignonne

1998

Labor relations, labor management practices and cultural values in rural areas : paternalism model changes in Burgundy In this contribution, employment practices of rural firms are analysed in relation to the influence of the economic, social and cultural environment of the rural community. The common feature of labor relations in rural plants seems to be the remaining of paternalistic relationships. After presenting the historical model of paternalism and its translation in terms of labor management, empirical data concerning manufacturing plants located in one rural area of Burgundy ­ Bresse Bourguignonne ­ are used to set up present forms of paternalism.
