Restoring economic growth in Argentina
No full textThe author reviews the debate on the causes of Argentina?s economic collapse in late 2001 and 2002 and examines the measures needed to help restore sustainable growth. Some analysts stress fiscal imbalances, others overvaluation of the peso under the convertibility plan, and others external shocks. Cline judges that all three contributed substantially, but that it was their inflammatory interaction with domestic political unraveling that forced the bad-equilibrium outcome. He reviews the nascent recovery since the second half of 2002 and the important success of avoiding hyperinflation. Looking forward, the author?s analysis underscores the importance of strengthening fiscal performance, in part by increasing relatively low collections of value added taxes. He stresses the need for reform of the system of revenue sharing with the provinces; the importance of strengthening the banking system, which was severely weakened by asymmetric conversion of assets and liabilities from dollars to pesos; and the need to arrive at equitable restructuring of utility tariffs to reestablish confidence of foreign direct investors in the rules of the game. Restructuring government debt is also central to restoring growth. A simple model indicates that a relatively ambitious target for the primary fiscal surplus and a restricted set of senior-status debt will be needed to limit the haircut on junior debt to amounts compatible with longer-term creditor perceptions of fairness. The author also considers the new dynamics of bargaining with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). He judges that although conditionality is arguably appropriately less stringent as only rollover is involved, and despite the large outstanding debt to the IMF, there are limits to how lenient the Fund can and should be in key areas with potential for setting international precedents.Environmental Economics&Policies,Economic Theory&Research,Public Sector Economics&Finance,Payment Systems&Infrastructure,Banks&Banking Reform,Economic Theory&Research,Banks&Banking Reform,Public Sector Economics&Finance,Environmental Economics&Policies,Economic Stabilization

Renewable energy - new forces in global ethanol trade?
No full textThe paper presents an extended gravity equation application for the global trade with ethanol. The background and different attempts for a theoretical foundation of the standard approach are discussed. The econometric work takes regional integration schemes into account, as well as the influence of the production factor agricultural land and the level of oil prices on the world market. Results indicate that global bilateral trade flows of ethanol can be explained by a set of comprehensive explanatory variables, including regional agreements and the price level of oil. From a global perspective the EU effect on trade flows is trade diverting as the regional agreement reduces the linkage to world markets and increases the intra-regional level of trade with ethanol. The analysis over time however indicates that the decoupling of the EU ethanol market from the world market is decreasing, potentially reflecting demand increases within the EU.gravity equation, bilateral trade flows, trade with renewable energy, biofuels, and econometric estimation, Resource /Energy Economics and Policy,
Data from: Reinforcement and a cline in mating behavior evolve in response to secondary contact and hybridization in shield-back katydids (Orthoptera: Tettigoniidae)
No full textIn a dispersal-limited species that has evolved reproductive character displacement at a contact zone, a cline in mating behavior may result if gene flow diffuses alleles out of the contact zone into allopatric populations. Prior work has found such a clinal pattern in the shield-back katydid Aglaothorax morsei, in which the male calling songs in a sympatric population have a displaced, short interpulse interval that increases in length with increasing distance from the contact zone. In this study, molecular phylogenetic and female preference data show that (1) sympatric populations result from secondary contact, (2) hybridization in sympatry has resulted in unidirectional mitochondrial introgression, and (3) female preferences are consistent with reproductive character displacement, and could generate a cline in mating behavior. These data together suggest a history of reinforcement, generally considered rare in acoustically communicating insects, thus Aglaothorax represents an important example of a rarely documented evolutionary process
Restoring Economic Growth in Argentina
No full textThe author reviews the debate on the
causes of Argentina�s economic collapse in late 2001 and
2002 and examines the measures needed to help restore
sustainable growth. Some analysts stress fiscal imbalances,
others overvaluation of the peso under the convertibility
plan, and others external shocks. Cline judges that all
three contributed substantially, but that it was their
inflammatory interaction with domestic political unraveling
that forced the bad-equilibrium outcome. He reviews the
nascent recovery since the second half of 2002 and the
important success of avoiding hyperinflation. Looking
forward, the author�s analysis underscores the importance of
strengthening fiscal performance, in part by increasing
relatively low collections of value added taxes. He stresses
the need for reform of the system of revenue sharing with
the provinces; the importance of strengthening the banking
system, which was severely weakened by asymmetric conversion
of assets and liabilities from dollars to pesos; and the
need to arrive at equitable restructuring of utility tariffs
to reestablish confidence of foreign direct investors in the
rules of the game. Restructuring government debt is also
central to restoring growth. A simple model indicates that a
relatively ambitious target for the primary fiscal surplus
and a restricted set of senior-status debt will be needed to
limit the haircut on junior debt to amounts compatible with
longer-term creditor perceptions of fairness. The author
also considers the new dynamics of bargaining with the
International Monetary Fund (IMF). He judges that although
conditionality is arguably appropriately less stringent as
