La economía rusa en la crisis mundial : una valoración de la etapa Medvedev
2011
Este trabajo analiza la situación de la economía rusa durante la etapa de Dmitri Medvédev (desde marzo de 2008 hasta la actualidad). En primer lugar, examina la situación del país antes de que el nuevo presidente ocupase su cargo oficialmente y, a continuación, plantea las reformas que se pretendieron abordar a partir de ese momento, condicionadas por la aparición de la fuerte crisis económica iniciada en 2008, que puso de manifiesto los problemas estructurales que padece la economía rusa. Estos problemas, expuestos de forma detallada en este trabajo, se pueden transformar en obstáculos muy serios para conseguir un crecimiento sostenido a largo plazo en el país. Finalmente, el trabajo expon…

La dependencia energética europea de Rusia
2008
Con frecuencia se apunta que existe una dependencia energética de la UE que la hace muy vulnerable respecto a Rusia. En este trabajo se analizarán diversos contenidos de esa dependencia. En primer lugar, se estudiaran las ventas de gas y petróleo de Rusia a la UE. En segundo lugar, se abordan los problemas ligados a terceros países por donde transitan los hidrocarburos, que abren una dimensión nueva a la dependencia europea. En tercer lugar, se apuntan los proyectos de transporte que unen a Rusia con la UE, que limitan parte de la vulnerabilidad energética de esta última.
¿A qué barreras se enfrentan hoy las pymes en el mercado de las licitaciones públicas internacionacionales?
2018
El objetivo de este trabajo es contribuir a la escasa investigación existente sobre el acceso de las empresas españolas al mercado de las licitaciones públicas internacionales analizando, en particular, los problemas que encuentran las pymes. Se identifican y analizan las 21 barreras a las que estas se enfrentan en el mercado de las licitaciones públicas internacionales clasificadas en función de su origen: unas determinadas por la propia Administración y por el país de la licitación, denominadas barreras externas y otras debidas a las capacidades, recursos y habilidades de las pymes, denominadas internas. El análisis teórico se complementa con un estudio cualitativo de empresas españolas.
La Propuesta de Reglamento estableciendo un marco para la evaluación de las inversiones extranjeras directas en la Unión Europea de septiembre de 2017
2018
Foreign investment flows have increased steadily in the last decades, although the financial crisis and the role played by certain emerging economies, mainly PRC, are negatively influencing them. A change of trend is not ascertainable yet, but some backlash against foreign direct investment exists in particular countries. The development of mechanisms of control of foreign investment shows this change of attitude. The situation is especially relevant in the European Union because of the embryonic condition of the Common Investment Policy. The publication of the Proposal for a Regulation establishing a framework for screening of foreign direct investments into the European Union reflects the…
Rail freight transport and demand requirements : an analysis of attribute cut-offs through a stated preference experiment
2014
This paper analyses the choice between road and rail in Spain where rail market share for freight is still residual. Discrete choice models are estimated with data obtained through a two-phase fieldwork, thus allowing us to carry out a stated preference efficient design for each interviewee. We analyse the existence of attribute cut-offs and the presence of a segment of the population with a zero value of frequency. Our results show that ignoring the existence of cut-offs and segments of the population with polarised valuations can lead to erroneous conclusions in terms of the possibilities of rail for absorbing significant quota.
The refugee entrepreneurship process from/in emerging economies
2021
The paper examines several refugee experiences in Mexico and presents their reasons for leaving their home countries. A gap in research is identifying the entrepreneurial process experienced by refugee entrepreneurs. We use the case study of 10 Latin American refugees in Mexico to propose a conceptual framework that describes the entrepreneurial process of refugee entrepreneurs. We have found that this process begins with the abandonment of the country of origin, followed by the traumatic experiences that caused flight and the difficulties they face in the pilgrimage to the host country. These events help shape the entrepreneurial intention of the refugees.
Is the leadership of the Brent-WTI threatened by China's new crude oil futures market?
2020
Abstract The recent listing of a new crude oil futures contract on the Shanghai International Energy Exchange (INE) has reopened the debate over whether crude oil produced in different countries or locations constitutes a unified world oil market. The aim of this paper is to study the information flows among Brent, West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and the new Medium Sour Crude Oil (SC) futures contract listed on INE futures markets to assess whether the trading of this new futures contract has altered the dominant role of the most traded oil benchmarks in the world. A multiple regression model identifies the Brent futures market as the most influential market in the oil price discovery process…
Privatisation, decentralisation and production adjustment in the Russian defence industry
1998
PRIVATISATION IN THE DEFENCE INDUSTRY was until 1993 characterised by two features. Firstly, it affected a small number of organisations considered not too important within the sector. Nevertheless, one must point out that, at the end of 1992, some outstanding companies from the defence sector started to be privatised, which marked the first extension of the phenomenon to this sector of the economy. Secondly, the privatisation in this early period lacked organisation and control. Legislation was passed in 1993 with the aim of establishing some order in the privatisation process in the defence industry. From that time (until 1996) the idea was to foster a broad privatisation process with a v…
Restructuring the defence industry and arms production in Russia
2000
AT THE BEGINNING OF 1997, after five years of failed reforms in the defence industry, there took place a substantial change in the administrative structure running this sector. The Ministry of Economic Affairs took over the restructuring of the defence industry and thereby defined a new way of tackling reforms in this industrial sector. Three elements stand out in the new approach: intersectorality, a predominance of civilian elements and a greater realism. This approach, therefore, represents a break with the idea in force up to that moment of the best way to tackle problems related to the defence industry, which was greatly conditioned by its Soviet heritage. Although two years later this…
