Tax Reforms and Labour-market Performance: An Evaluation for Spain using REMS
2009
This paper uses REMS, a Rational Expectations Model of the Spanish economy designed by Boscá et al (2007), to analyse the effects of lowering the overall tax wedge to the level prevailing in the US. Our results partially confirm previous findings in the literature: a reduction in the overall tax wedge of 19.5 points, in order to reach the US levels, has a positive effect in the long run, increasing total hours by about 7 per cent and GDP by about 8 percentage points. In terms of GDP per adult, these results account for 1/4 of the gap with respect to the US, but imply a reduction of only one percentage point in the labour productivity gap. The rise in total hours per adult is explained by a …

Este artículo tiene como objetivo analizar las propuestas de las reformas que Carmine Nicola Caracciolo elaboró durante su mandato como Virrey del Perú (1716-1721). En particular, se reflexionará sobre aquellas propuestas…

El café de España (1886) de Valencia, un capricho arquitectónico inspirado en La Alhambra
2021
En este trabajo se reconstruye y analiza la historia del desaparecido café de España de Valencia, que fue inaugurado el primero de mayo de 1886.

Se convirtió en un lugar emblemático de la vida social y cultural de esta ciudad. This work reconstructs and analyses the history of the now-defunct café de España in Valencia, which opened on 1 May …
