International Assessment Surveys of Educational Achievement in Developing Countries : Why Education Economists Should Care

2015

International audience; This paper reviews the most known international assessment studies that are conducted in the context of poor countries and highlights the lack of empirical evidence on the degree to which the contents of the tests really match countries' curricula. To illustrate, the paper evaluates the sensitivity of an international testing instrument by comparing the responses of students in two consecutive grades on the same battery of tests. Using propensity score matching to control for student and teacher characteristics, the results show that the tests are not grade sensitive, which raises the question of the validity of many empirical works that are based on similar instrume…

Internationalization, networks and industry related factors : the case of Finnish digital game industry

2016

Tässä työssä tutkittiin pienten ja keskisuurten (PK) yritysten kansainvälistymistä, myyntiä ja verkostoja pienen ja avoimen talouden kontekstissa. Tutkimusaukko perustui tarpeeseen tutkia miten PK -yritykset ja International New Venture (INV) -yritykset kansainvälistyvät, miten verkostoja käytetään tässä prosessissa ja miten toimialan erityispiirteet vaikuttavat käyttäytymiseen. Teoreettinen viitekehys muodostui stage -malleista (Uppsala -malli), INV -teoriasta ja kansainvälistymisen verkostomallista yhdistettynä taloudellisesti kasvavan ja menestyvän digitaalisen pelialan kontekstiin. Tämän kvalitatiivisen tapaustutkimuksen empiirinen data koostui kymmenestä (10) suomalaisten peliyritysten…

Du territoire géographique au territoire économique : la situation de la viticulture

2011

Through time and space, the construction of the wine territories reveals them as subjects of economic issues. The analysis of these economic issues mobilizes traditional concepts (theory of comparative advantages) and more moderns (new economic geography). Thus, we progress gradually from the geographical territory with numerous dimensions (subsoil, soil, vegetation…) to the concept of economic territory of which the use by the wine growing refers to the traditional factors of structuring and the use of space (ground, population, financing, nature, …). Considering the use of these various factors within a region, a country or / and between several countries requires: (1) to consider the int…

The wage curve and local monopsony power

2019

AbstractUsing longitudinal micro-data from Finland, a country with a geographically dispersed population and relatively long distances between local labor markets, this paper examines the responsiveness of the pay level to local unemployment conditions. In particular, this study tests the hypothesis that the pay level is more responsive to the unemployment level in less agglomerated and more remote regions as might be expected if employers have a higher degree of monopsony power in such regions. The results consistently suggest that the pay level is lower in localities with a higher unemployment level and, hence, provide strong support for the so-called wage curve hypothesis, which predicts…

L'organisation de l'université française à la lumière de ses processus de certification

1984

International audience; L'assimilation de l'école à la firme multiproduit autonomie soulève de nombreuses difficultés contextuelles. Malgré tout, l'utilisation au cas de l'établissement scolaire des outils classiques de la théorie économique de la production est susceptible de rendre compte des conséquences de ses pratiques éducatives sur un mode de fonctionnement. En faisant référence à ce cadre d'analyse, le propos de l'auteur est de révéler ici l'organisation actuelle de l'université française en examinant le rôle des divers acteurs dans le processus de production de diplômés et de vérifier, en définitive, l'existence d'un assortiment entre les établissements et leurs publics étudiants, …

Faut-il ranger l'économie de l'éducation au rayon des accessoires ?

2006

06005 - Thème du numéro : "Education / Economie : un conflit de valeur(s) ?", coordonné par Emmanuel Triby; National audience; L'article se limite volontairement aux aspects traditionnels liés au financement de l'éducation. Après avoir considéré les intérêts, et les limites du concept de capital humain, l'auteur s'interroge sur le niveau optimal des dépenses en éducation, puis sur la complexité des rapports entre montants investis et résultats. Enfin, il aborde la question du financement de l'éducation à partir d'un exemple tiré du système d'enseignement supérieur français.
