    No full text
    Replication data for the paper by Barry Eichengreen and Alain Naef, Imported or Home Grown? The 1992-3 EMS Crisis, published in the Journal of International Economics. The project contains the following data files: • A code file in text with all the code used. This can be useful for researchers not using the same software packages but wanting to replicate some models • An excel file with all the data used for anyone wanting to re-use the data • An EViews data file with the data in the same format as the one used in the econometrical analysis • A related EViews code file which will allow to easily replicate all of the analysis (except for the local projections, done in R, see below) • An R code file to replicate the local projections presented in the appendix • A zip file with the different excel files used to feed the R code. This is the same data as in the other files but it will make it easier to run the R code smoothly • An excel file with the exact data used to create each figure. This is meant to allow for replication of all the graphs presented in the paper. The data is the same as the one available in the other files but it is ready to use to replicate any of the charts

    Co-initiator of the call of calls denouncing the ideology of a neuroeconomic man in whose name the current reforms break and redial our jobs and tasks of care, social works, education, research, justice, information and culture, the author analyzes mainly the psychiatric knowledge and practice as facts of civilization.Co-initiateur de l'Appel des appels qui dénonce l'idéologie d'un «homme économique» au nom de laquelle les réformes actuelles défont et recomposent les métiers et les missions du soin, du travail social, de l'éducation, de la recherche, de la justice, de l'information et de la culture, l'auteur analyse ici principalement les savoirs et les pratiques psychiatriques comme «des faits de civilisation».Policar Alain, Gori Roland.

    How did the Bank of England manage sterling crises? This book steps into the shoes of the Bank's foreign exchange dealers to show how foreign exchange intervention worked in practice. The author reviews the history of sterling over half a century, using new archives, data and unseen photographs. This book traces the sterling crises from the end of the War to Black Wednesday in 1992. The resulting analysis shows that a secondary reserve currency such as sterling plays an important role in the stability of the international system. The author goes on to explore the lessons the Bretton Woods system on managed exchange rates has for contemporary policy makers in the context of Brexit. This is a crucial reference for scholars in economics and history examining past and current prospects for the international financial system

À travers l’analyse socio-historique du mouvement de peinture moderne qui s’est développé à Téhéran dans les années 1940-1960, il permet de nourrir la réflexion sur la pluralit..
