Beyond the Salassa-Samuelson Effect in some New Member States of the European Union
Get PDFThis paper analyses the Balassa and Samuelson hypothesis in two groups of European countries: six New Member States (NMS) and six advanced EU-15 economies. It is found that the second stage of the hypothesis, which relates relative sector prices with the real exchange rate, does not hold anywhere. In the NMS the main reasons are increased demand for domestic tradables stemming from positive differentials in economic growth, probably coupled with quality improvements in domestic tradable goods. In the EU-15, the explanatory factor is segmentation between national markets of tradables, caused by transportation costs, non-tariff barriers and imperfect competition between firms.Balassa-Samuelson effect, panel cointegration, economic transition, market segmentation, quality bias

Ellinge slott
Get PDFDen här rapporten om Ellinge slott är en produkt inom kursen ”Bevarande, vård och restaurering av historiska trädgårdsanläggningar”. Arbetet har skett i en grupp bestående av Karin Henriksson, Karin Ingemansson och Eva-Marie Samuelson.
Syftet med rapporten är att teckna Ellinge slotts landskapliga omgivningar, trädgårdar och parks historia. Syftet har även varit att inventera dagsläget, samt föra en diskussion med utgångspunkt i detta om hur anläggningen långsiktigt kan vårdas, skötas och bevaras.
Sökandet kring Ellinge slotts historia har skett främst genom arkivstudier, kontakter med en rad olika personer samt genom besök på platsen. Vi har även gjort en kortare kartläggning av Ellinges mer allmänna historia.
I resultatdelen har vi kartlagt historien, kronologiskt indelad: tidig historia, 1700-, 1800- och 1900-talet. Den tidiga historieskrivningen utgår från tidigare tryckta historiesamman-fattningar och avbildningar. Från 1760 och framåt finns kartmaterial av olika slag att tillgå samt samtida beskrivningar. Från 1897 och framåt finns fotografier bevarade vilka har varit en viktig källa för att fastställa hur delar i parken och trädgården har utvecklats.
Det skrivna materialet vi funnit kring Ellinge handlar främst om en allmän historia kring slottet, där vi dock funnit en del nedtecknat om parken och trädgården. Ur våra arkivstudier har vi även funnit en del protokoll och listor som ytterligare hjälpt oss kartlägga trädgårdshistorien.
För att kartlägga dagsläget på Ellinges park, trädgårdar samt närmaste omgivningar har en omfattande inventering gjorts. Till denna inventering hör uppritning av kartor, fotografering och upprättande av växtlistor.
Utifrån historieskrivningen och inventeringen av Ellinge slotts omgivningar idag förs en diskussion om hur denna anläggning med anor redan från 1200-talet kan bevaras och utvecklas.
Slutsatser som dragits är vikten av att bevara de stora övergripande strukturerna i en anläggning som kontinuerligt har utvecklats och anpassats till de rådande stilidealen. Det är viktigt att behålla de axlar som löper i anläggningen, samt att bevara vallgraven kring slottet. Det är även viktigt att försöka behålla den lummiga och grönskade karaktären på Ellinge, främst i from av de stora och ibland även mycket gamla träd som växer där. Vissa idéer för hur en eventuell återplantering av träd har gjorts.
Till sist dras slutsatser kring hur Ellinge skall kunna utvecklas i framtiden, kopplat till dagens verksamheter, för att skapa en levande miljö som är anpassad efter sina brukare.This report on Ellinge castle is a product in the course ”Garden Conservation”. The work has been carried out in a group consisting of Karin Henriksson, Karin Ingemansson and Eva-Marie Samuelson.
The purpose of this report is to describe Ellinge castle’s history, including its designed landscape surroundings, gardens and parks. The aim was also to make an inventory of the current situation and have a discussion, based on our results, on how the long term care, management and preservation can be carried out.
The search concerning Ellinge castle’s history has primarily been carried out through archival studies, contact with people and visits to the site to find traces of previous garden designs. We have also made a short summary of Ellinges broader history.
In the result chapter, we have divided the history into chronological order: Early History, 18th, 19th and 20th century history. The early history is based on previously printed historical summaries. From 1760 onwards there are maps of various kinds’ available and also contemporary descriptions. From 1897 onwards there are photographs preserved which has been an important source for determining how parts of the park has developed trough the years.
The written material we have found about Ellinge focuses mainly on a general history about the castle but has also sometimes mentioned the park and garden. From our archival studies, we have also found some protocols and lists, which have further helped us identify the park and gardens history.
To identify the current state of Ellinges Park gardens and near surroundings has a comprehensive inventory been carried out. This inventory included drawing of maps, photographing and the making of an inventory list containing findings like plants, constructions and traces of previous garden management and designs.
Based on history and the inventory of Ellinge castles surroundings, a discussion are being held on how this site, dating from the 1200-century, can be preserved and further developed.
Conclusions drawn are the importance of preserving the large structures in a park that have been continuously developed and adapted to the prevailing style ideals. It is important to keep the two dominating axises and to preserve the moat around the castle. It is also important to keep the lush and green nature at Ellinge, mainly the large and old trees and the tree rows that are leading out into the landscape. Some ideas for a possible future replanting of trees has been described
Finally, conclusions about how Ellinge is to be developed in the future, linked to today’s activities, and how to create an outdoor environment suitable for its future use are being drawn
Revisión dinámica del modelo del multiplicador-acelerador de Samuelson
Get PDF[Resumen] En este trabajo se tienen tres objetivos principales. El primero de ellos y más
importante es el aprendizaje de una nueva metodología, la dinámica de sistemas, que
no se ha estudiado con anterioridad. A partir de dicho aprendizaje, se tratará de lograr
el segundo objetivo, que es la aplicación de los conocimientos obtenidos a un modelo
ya elaborado, que es el modelo del multiplicador-acelerador de Samuelson (1939)
revisado por W. Low (1976), tratando de reproducirlo mediante la utilización del
software de simulación Vensim PLE y observando la utilidad de la dinámica de
sistemas en este tipo de modelos complejos. El tercer objetivo consiste en elaborar
una estrategia de simulación, o lo que es lo mismo, seleccionar las simulaciones más
importantes que se obtengan del desarrollo del modelo.
Para el logro de los tres objetivos, se ha revisado la literatura macroeconómica
referida al modelo de Samuelson. Aunque el objetivo del trabajo no sea la descripción
teórica del modelo, se comentarán determinados aspectos importantes para la
comprensión de los resultados de las simulaciones.
En el desarrollo de dichas simulaciones, se partirá de un modelo similar al
original, al que se irán añadiendo variables para reflejar mejor la realidad
macroeconómica, obteniendo la conclusión de que, añadiendo realismo al modelo, no
se obtiene el comportamiento cíclico derivado de la interacción del multiplicador y del
acelerador, característico del modelo tradicional, aunque éste siga siendo válido para
los supuestos que hace Samuelson.
Se obtiene la conclusión de que la dinámica de sistemas tiene una gran utilidad
para tratar modelos en los que la solución analítica se vuelve muy compleja.[Abstract] There are three main objectives in this work. The first and most important is
learning a new methodology, system dynamics, which has not been studied previously.
From this learning, it will seek to achieve the second objective, which is the application
of knowledge gained to a model already developed, which is the model of the
multiplier-accelerator of Samuelson (1939) reviewed by W. Low (1976) trying to play
through the use of simulation software Vensim PLE and noting the usefulness of system dynamics in such complex models. The third objective is to develop a
simulation strategy, or what is the same, selecting the most important simulations
obtained from the model’s development.
To achieve the three objectives have been revised macroeconomic literature
referred to Samuelson model. Although the aim of the work is not theoretical
description of the model, certain important aspects for understanding the results of the
simulations will be discussed.
In the development of such simulations, we start with a similar to the original
model, which will be added variables to better reflect the macroeconomic reality,
obtaining the conclusion that, if we added realism to the model, the cyclical behavior
derivative by the interaction of the multiplier and accelerator, characteristic of the
traditional model, is not obtained, although this remains valid for the assumptions made
by Samuelson.
The conclusion that we obtain is that the system dynamics is very useful for
treating problems where analytical solution becomes very complex.Traballo fin de grao (UDC.ECO). Economía. Curso 2014/201
