Does one size fit all? The impact of cognitive skills on economic growth

2016

Les Documents de Travail de l'IREDU, n°2016-1; This paper tests for heterogeneous effects of cognitive skills on economic growth across countries. Using a new extended dataset on cognitive skills and controlling for potential endogeneity, we find that the magnitude of the effect is about 60 per cent higher for low-income countries compared to high-income countries, and it more than doubles when low TFP countries are compared to high TFP countries. There are also marked differences across geographic regions. Using data on the share of the population with advanced and minimum skill levels, our results also indicate that high-income countries should focus on increasing the number of high skill…

Le mouvement des idées monétaires dans l'Europe moderne

2014

Ce chapitre vise à fournir une vue de l'évolution des idées monétaires dans l'Europe moderne. Il s'alimente notamment des textes des auteurs du présent livre pour en dégager quelques leçons. Dans un premier temps, il discutera du sens du substantif " mercantilisme " tel qu'il a été construit depuis le milieu du dix-huitième siècle : examiner les fondements historiques de cette notion permettra d'en montrer les impasses. Il présentera, dans un second temps, une catégorisation des auteurs construite à partir de leur rapport au pouvoir.

Introduction. Les pensées monétaires dans l'Europe moderne : contexte et intentions

2014

Ce texte introduit le livre et présente ses objectifs et sa structure. Ce livre traite du déploiement des idées monétaires dans le monde européen de l'époque moderne, depuis les écrits de Nicolas Copernic (1517) jusqu'à la veille de la publication de l'ouvrage économique majeur écrit par Adam Smith (1776) . Il met l'accent sur le contexte historique dans le cadre duquel ces idées monétaires ont vu le jour. Il montre la grande variété des contextes et des idées bien au-delà des espaces, des auteurs et des thèmes généralement étudiés, en intégrant des territoires peu étudiés par les économistes, en mettant au jour des approches et des auteurs oubliés, en tentant, enfin, de restituer la riches…

Identità, valore, prezzo: nuove proposte di analisi e comparazione sul mercato degli schiavi a Napoli in età moderna

2017

International audience; This article aims at studying the formation process of personal identities of men forced to work at the oar in Naples at the end of the 16th century in comparison with the Kingdom of Valencia at the beginning of the 17th. At that time, Naples and Valencia were two of the most important slave markets as well as trading cities of the Spanish Empire. The research will take into account two types of sources that have remained largely unexplored by historiography to date, and especially a book dating back to 1585 detailing the biographies of 657 slaves. This will make it possible to focus in depth on slaves identities and in particular on the estimation process regarding …

Debating Sound Money in Early Modern Europe: From Dualist to Metallic Monetary Systems

2019

International audience; In this paper, we present the monetary debates in Europe from the XVIth to the XVIIIth centuries from the viewpoint of the problem of good and sound money. The framework of the paper is built on a typology of monetary systems, by which a dualist system is distinguished from a metallic one. Under the dualist system, the value in units of account of the specie in circulation was defined by monetary proclamations (Einaudi locates this era from Charlemagne to the French Revolution). Metallist proponents aimed at preventing any kind of manipulations with a radical transformation of the system of payment, which gave birth to a metallic monetary system from the very end of …

Calcul des risques et rationalité dans la pensée de Cesare Beccaria

2000

International audience; Le traité de Beccaria Des délits et des peines fut publié entre avril et juillet 1764 au moment où paraissaient les premières feuilles du Café 1. Il est donc à peu près contemporain de l'essai d'analyse sur la contrebande que Beccaria rédigea pour le périodique de Pietro Verri. Cet article est assez peu commenté pour des raisons qui sont simples : il s'agit d'un texte bref (une page et demie) ; le sujet traité est une question technique (la méthode de fixation d'un tarif douanier). Beccaria enfin recourt aux mathématiques en utilisant des symboles et une forme de fonction qui ne sont pas ceux des manuels d'aujourd'hui 2. Pourtant l'article nous paraît typique de la r…

L'économie matérielle de la France (1830-2015). L'histoire d'un parasite ?

2018

This article explores the long-term dynamics of material use in France over a period of 185 years. It is based on material flow accounts that are perfectly consistent with the standards of Material Flows Analysis at the national economic scale. This work - which covers domestic extraction, imports and exports - is the first long-term study of material flows for France, with annual and national data for most of the period. Our database allows us to study the evolution of French metabolism during the industrialization of the country, together with the increasing dependence on abiotic materials. We highlight a singular metabolic trajectory: that of a state that benefits from successive world-s…
