[Up for debate]</title><content type='html'>The subject of Dutch disease has been central to the debate of Brazilian macroeconomists and policymakers at least since commodities prices started to rise during the last decade. I believe that much of this debate is misguided, as it ignores some macro-financial interactions of great importance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My thesis is that how the booming sector accumulates wealth is crucial to understand the consequences to the rest of the economy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let’s say there is a booming sector whose present income is above its permanent income (say, soy producers) and which is attempting to transfer purchasing power from the present to the future (i.e. to save). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the sake of illustration, let’s assume that the only form of accumulating wealth was the purchase of an asset in fixed supply, such as land. Then the attempt of transferring purchasing power from the present to the future would bid up land prices and landowners would capture much of the increase in national wealth. In other words, we get a housing/land prices boom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now let’s introduce financial intermediaries. The booming sector now can save by purchasing assets issued by financial intermediaries who will lend the booming sector resources to sectors of the economy willing to dissave to expand their consumption or investment. In other words, the attempt to save by the booming sector fuels a credit (financial intermediation) boom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then notice that my argument does not mention at any point that the increased income in the booming sector is related to exports. The effort by the booming sector to save is the mechanism that causes the increase in financial intermediation or the spike in land and housing prices.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But increases in financial intermediation are also often associated with deterioration in credit quality, excessive leveraging and enhanced risk of a financial crisis. For those of us who are more inequality averse, rising land prices are a negative as the poor tend to be land-poor. It is up to policymakers to avoid the housing bubble and credit boom. It is obvious that goods and services in Brazil are excessively expensive, and for many observers, that is both cause and symptom of the loss in competitiveness that afflicts some sectors of the Brazilian economy (more noticeably, the most labor intensive sectors of manufacturing).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My point is that the key for the solution to this problem is to isolate the domestic economy from the consequences of the attempt to save by the booming sector and this can be accomplished by allowing the booming sector access to external assets, i.e., by letting the windfall leak out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How then can policymakers make the windfall more likely to leak out? This can be done through a multi-pronged strategy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;First and foremost for the case of Brazil, access to external assets should be democratized, i.e. let soy farmers buy Apple stock on an online broker, this simple. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Second, regulations governing pension funds and institutional investors ought to lose their bias towards domestic assets. That would require a major reform and disturb powerful vested interests, but the benefits of such reform would go much farther than just macroeconomic management.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Third, let imports in! That sounds contradictory, but the more cars we import for China (and we import very little), the smaller will be the tendency of Real appreciation, and the more competitive will be our import competing industries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But has this ever been tried? Yes, it has been tried and successfully. Chile has faced rising copper prices for the last decade, yet our finance- and trade-liberated cousins have avoided real appreciation. And just in case someone asks, they have also grown faster too.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-4290644399303179660?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/4290644399303179660/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/12/is-dutch-disease-matter-of-choice-up.html#comment-form' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/4290644399303179660'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/4290644399303179660'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/12/is-dutch-disease-matter-of-choice-up.html' title='Is Dutch Disease a matter of choice?

In the chart below, I show the cross-section of depreciation rates relative to the US dollar for the periods immediately after the Lehman failure in 2008 and the most recent increase in market volatility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In both episodes, the yen strengthened and practically all the currencies of advanced and emerging economies weakened relative to the US dollar. Some emerging currencies (Brazilian real, Polish zloty, South African rand, Mexican peso, Korean won) stood among those with the largest depreciations in both episodes.

Li a Economia Brasileira em Marcha Forçada durante a graduação e lembro que gostei. Teria que ler de novo porque mal me lembro do que se trata, e não faço a mínima ideia do que esperar de uma segunda leitura depois de 20 anos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ao saber de seu falecimento - que desperdício! - encomendei o Marcha Forçada no empréstimo entre bibliotecas pelo Fundo e fui ao google scholar procurar por amostras de sua obra. Confesso que não me animei muito a ler os trabalhos mais recentes e &lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:WordDocument&gt;   &lt;w:View&gt;Normal&lt;/w:View&gt;   &lt;w:Zoom&gt;0&lt;/w:Zoom&gt;   &lt;w:DoNotOptimizeForBrowser/&gt;  &lt;/w:WordDocument&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; font-size: 12pt;"&gt;não concordo com partes&lt;/span&gt; do argumento do artigo sobre o crescimento do Brasil em um mundo sino-cêntrico (em uma edição recente da Revista de Economia Política).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mas encontrei uma pérola: seu &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/goog_1698622193"&gt;arti&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://ppe.ipea.gov.br/index.php/ppe/article/view/456"&gt;go na PPE&lt;/a&gt;, "Brasil, 1610: mudanças técnicas e conflitos sociais". Neste artigo, ABC narra e documenta uma transformação tecnológica que reduziu o custo de operação de um engenho de cana de açúcar, durante as primeiras décadas do século XVII, que teria quebrado o monopólio natural dos engenhos movidos a força hidráulica, erodido o poder de barganha dos senhores de engenho, e reduzido a distância social e econômica entre os senhores de engenho e os lavradores (isto é, plantadores de cana, que em geral também possuíam escravos, mas não tinham o capital para adquirir um engenho). Poderia escrever mais sobre aquele artigo, mas acho que não faria mérito ao trabalho de Barros de Castro: portanto, leiam o original.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-4003164816111673271?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/4003164816111673271/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/08/antonio-barros-de-castro-e-o-brasil-de.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/4003164816111673271'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/4003164816111673271'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/08/antonio-barros-de-castro-e-o-brasil-de.html' title='Antonio Barros de Castro e o Brasil de 1610'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-2002946067105409122</id><published>2011-08-23T12:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-23T12:49:46.019-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Minhas pesquisas'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Economia Aplicada'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Leonardo Monasterio'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Economic History'/><title type='text'>Artigo com o Leonardo Monasterio sobre colônias gaúchas publicado pelo RSUE</title><content type='html'>Nosso &lt;a href="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0166046211000962"&gt;artigo&lt;/a&gt; sobre as consequências de longo-prazo do programa de colonização do Rio Grande do Sul&amp;nbsp; foi aceito para publicação pelo &lt;a href="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0166046211000962"&gt;Regional Studies and Urban Economics&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Neste artigo, nós nos beneficiamos da pesquisa do Fernando Korndörfer, que compilou uma lista de colônias no Rio Grande do Sul, assim como da obra de autores como Jean Roche e Teodor Amstad, para identificar os municípios atuais que foram sedes de colônias de imigrantes subsidiadas pelas diferentes esferas do governo brasileiro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nós encontramos em geral que os municípios mais próximos das colônias subsidiadas, fundadas entre 1824 e a primeira guerra mundial, hoje em dia têm em geral melhores indicadores econômicos e sociais que os outros municípios do Rio Grande do Sul.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quando tentamos explicar a causa deste melhor desempenho sócio-econômico, nós tentamos avaliar a importância de duas hipóteses não excludentes: colônias podem ter melhor performance porque tinham uma distribuição mais igualitária da terra ou porque os imigrantes tinham melhor capital humano que os outros habitantes do Rio Grande do Sul. A evidência, ainda que circunstancial, favorece a hipótese da importância da distribuição igualitária da terra.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No futuro seria interessante estender essa linha de pesquisa para outras regiões do Brasil: Existem outros experimentos de distribuição igualitária de terra no Brasil do século XIX? A colonização do estado do Espírito Santo parece ser um caso interessante a ser estudado no futuro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Assim diz o resumo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"&gt;This paper studies the long-term consequences of the government-sponsored programs of European immigration to Southern Brazil before the Great War. We find that the municipalities closer to the original sites of nineteenth century government sponsored settlements (&lt;em&gt;colônias&lt;/em&gt;) have higher per capita income, less poverty and dependence on &lt;em&gt;Bolsa Família&lt;/em&gt; cash transfers, better health and education outcomes; and for the areas close to German colonies, also less inequality of income and educational outcomes than otherwise. Since that is a reduced form relationship, we then attempt to identify the relative importance of more egalitarian landholdings and higher initial human capital in determining those outcomes. Our findings are suggestive that more egalitarian land distribution played a more important role than higher initial human capital in achieving the good outcomes associated with closeness to a &lt;em&gt;colônia&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-2002946067105409122?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/2002946067105409122/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/08/artigo-com-o-leonardo-monasterio-sobre.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/2002946067105409122'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/2002946067105409122'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/08/artigo-com-o-leonardo-monasterio-sobre.html' title='Artigo com o Leonardo Monasterio sobre colônias gaúchas publicado pelo RSUE'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-7409255963293538140</id><published>2011-08-01T11:03:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-08-01T11:03:48.288-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Marcos Chamon'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Minhas pesquisas'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mitos economicos'/><title type='text'>Artigo sobre o mito da estagnação econômica pós-reforma aceito no JDE</title><content type='html'>Meu artigo com o Marcos Chamon sobre o viés nos indices de inflação durante períodos de reforma econômica no Brasil e no México, "&lt;a href="http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0304387811000666"&gt;The Myth of Post-Reform Income Stagnation: Evidence from Brazil and Mexico&lt;/a&gt;", foi aceito para publicação no Journal of Development Economics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O resumo diz:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Economic policies are often judged by a handful of statistics, some of which may be biased during periods of change. We estimate the income growth implied by the evolution of food demand and durable good ownership in post-reform Brazil and Mexico, and find that changes in consumption patterns are inconsistent with official estimates of near stagnant incomes. That is attributed to biases in the price deflator. The estimated unmeasured income gains are higher for poorer households, implying marked reductions in “real” inequality. These findings challenge the conventional wisdom that post-reform income growth was low and did not benefit the poor.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Traduzindo: as reformas econômicas dos anos 90 no Brasil e México trouxeram mais benefícios aos consumidores do que podemos inferir a partir de estatísticas agregadas, que seriam viesadas.

Comentários são bem-vindos, principalmente aqueles que chegarem logo!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Resumo:&lt;br /&gt;Twenty-eight months after the onset of the global financial crisis of August 2008, the evidence on post-crisis GDP growth emerging from a sample of 51 advanced and emerging countries is flattering for inflation targeting countries relative to their peers. The positive effect of IT is not explained away by plausible pre-crisis determinants of post-crisis performance, such as growth in private credit, ratios of short-term debt to GDP, reserves to short-term debt and reserves to GDP, capital account restrictions, total capital inflows, trade openness, current account balance and exchange rate flexibility, or post-crisis drivers such as the growth performance of trading partners and changes in terms of trade. We find that inflation targeting countries lowered nominal and real interest rates more sharply than other countries; were less likely to face deflation scares; and had sharp real depreciations without a relative deterioration in their risk assessment by markets. While the task of establishing causal relationships from cross-sectional macroeconomics series is daunting, our reading of this evidence is consistent with the resilience of IT countries being related to their ability to loosen their monetary policy when most needed, thereby avoiding deflation scares and the zero lower bound on interest rates.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-1536082093640226012?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/1536082093640226012/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/03/28-semanas.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/1536082093640226012'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/1536082093640226012'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/03/28-semanas.html' title='28 Meses...'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-6225993319530448459</id><published>2011-02-25T11:30:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-02-25T11:30:23.390-08:00</updated><title type='text'>PIB per capita X Reservas</title><content type='html'>Ao contrário do que as teorias sobre maldições de recursos naturais sugerem, existe uma forte correlação positiva entre o valor de reservas de petróleo e gás natural per capita e o nível da PIB per capita (vide gráfico abaixo com dados de renda per capita PPP do IMF/WEO e reservas de petróleo e gás da British Petroleum, para países com mais de 200 barris de petróleo equivalente per capita em 1990).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É interessante notar quem está acima e abaixo da linha de regressão.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

This paper uses a parameterized small open economy model to quantify the role of precautionary savings in economies with exhaustible resources, when the only source of uncertainty is the price of the exhaustible resource. Results show that the precautionary motive can generate sizable external sector savings. When aggregated over the sample countries, precautionary savings in 2006 add up to 3.2 percent of GDP. The quantitative importance of the precautionary motive varies considerably across the sample countries and is driven primarily by the weight of exhaustible resource revenues in future income. The parameterized model fares well at capturing current account balances in both cross-section and time-series data.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-2640227649072390478?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/2640227649072390478/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/02/current-account-behavior-of-oil.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/2640227649072390478'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/2640227649072390478'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/02/current-account-behavior-of-oil.html' title='The current account behavior of oil exporters'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-003fJzrtPQ0/TWaLH5K-qHI/AAAAAAAAACs/VOdjFEX_x40/s72-c/JIE.gif' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-1480679940221684631</id><published>2011-02-18T10:58:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-02-18T10:58:07.148-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Fatos econômicos'/><title type='text'>A duradoura abertura brasileira ao investimento direto estrangeiro</title><content type='html'>Desde o Plano Real e a presidência de FHC, houve uma abertura da conta de capitais no Brasil que, apesar da retórica de alguns políticos, não foi revertida durante os 8 anos do governo Lula.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Abaixo, vocês podem ver a série de investimento estrangeiro direto como fração do PIB no Brasil – dados trimestrais, dessazonalizados, do banco de dados IFS (usando o PIB em USD do World Economic Outlook):&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Agora. Sim, isso mesmo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Apresentamos este artigo em vários seminários e depois incorporamos uma análise similar para o México.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Semana passada, depois de mais uma revisão a pedido de pareceristas, nós fechamos uma nova versão do artigo com os resultados para o Brasil e o México e ‘publicamos’ no MPRA: “&lt;a href="http://ideas.repec.org/p/pra/mprapa/28532.html"&gt;The myth of post-reform income stagnation: Evidence from Brazil and Mexico&lt;/a&gt;.”&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Resumo:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Economic policies are often judged by a handful of statistics, some of which may be biased during periods of change. We estimate the income growth implied by the evolution of food demand and durable goods ownership in post-reform Brazil and Mexico, and find that changes in consumption patterns are inconsistent with official estimates of near stagnant incomes. That is attributed to biases in the price deflator. The estimated unmeasured income gains are higher for poorer households, implying marked reductions in “real” inequality. These findings challenge the conventional wisdom that post-reform income growth was low and did not benefit the poor.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-6870095557687553325?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/6870095557687553325/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/02/o-mito-da-estagnacao-pos-reformas.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/6870095557687553325'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/6870095557687553325'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/02/o-mito-da-estagnacao-pos-reformas.html' title='O mito da estagnação pós-reformas'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-3914795432830960765</id><published>2011-02-02T10:56:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-02-03T09:56:26.859-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Egito'/><title type='text'>Jogo dos erros: Egito</title><content type='html'>&lt;em&gt;O Egito é um país pobre de recursos naturais, localizado em uma região estratégica, com alto desemprego e grande desigualdade.

Pior que isso: se algum artigo subseqüente descobrir que a mortalidade dos colonos é um bom instrumento para, digamos, produtividade agrícola, então produtividade agrícola torna-se uma variável latente na especificação de AJR!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-4183464273885866849?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/4183464273885866849/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/01/vivendo-e-aprendendo-tragedy-of-commons.html#comment-form' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/4183464273885866849'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/4183464273885866849'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2011/01/vivendo-e-aprendendo-tragedy-of-commons.html' title='Vivendo e aprendendo: Tragedy of the commons na econometria IV'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-1330254277344891430</id><published>2011-01-14T07:19:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-01-14T07:19:55.668-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='SOS Vale do Cuiabá'/><title type='text'>SOS Vale do Cuiabá</title><content type='html'>Eu recebi o pedido de ajuda às vítimas da catástrofe do Vale do Cuiabá em um e-mail do José Roberto Afonso, que é um cara que eu apóio 200% (100% confiável + 100% competente).

We find that the municipalities closer to the original sites of nineteenth century government sponsored settlements (colônias) have higher per capita income, less poverty and dependence on Bolsa Família cash transfers, better health and education outcomes; and for the areas close to German colonies, also less inequality of income and educational outcomes than otherwise. Since that is a reduced form relationship, we then attempt to identify the relative importance of more egalitarian landholdings and higher initial human capital in determining those outcomes.

The positive effect of IT is not explained away by other variables considered in the related literature, such as short-term external debt to GDP, the post-crisis growth performance of trading partners, changes in terms of trade, pre-crisis growth in private credit, and the pre-crisis current account balance. We find that inflation targeting countries lowered nominal and real interest rates more sharply than other countries; were less likely to face deflation scares; and had sharp real depreciations without a relative deterioration in their risk assessment by markets. While the task of establishing causal relationships from cross-sectional macroeconomics series is daunting, our reading of this evidence is consistent with the resilience of IT countries being related to their ability to loosen their monetary policy when most needed, thereby avoiding deflation scares and the zero lower bound on interest rates.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-2470964531956222186?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/2470964531956222186/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2010/12/28-months-later.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/2470964531956222186'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/2470964531956222186'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2010/12/28-months-later.html' title='28 months later!'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_-S5xOMd-KEE/TQhm-R7vGPI/AAAAAAAAACA/L78Wl4tWOwI/s72-c/28+months+later.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-8034065122434442248</id><published>2010-12-11T07:18:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-11T07:18:39.190-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Dedicação ou preguiça?</title><content type='html'>Hoje deixei de ir à academia me exercitar de manhã para trabalhar em um parecer complicado.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-8034065122434442248?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/8034065122434442248/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2010/12/dedicacao-ou-preguica.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/8034065122434442248'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/8034065122434442248'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2010/12/dedicacao-ou-preguica.html' title='Dedicação ou preguiça?'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-5292419458846766882</id><published>2010-12-06T12:54:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-12-06T12:54:55.454-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Inflation targeting'/><title type='text'>Produção industrial em 51 países</title><content type='html'>Um dos meus gráficos favorites em meu artigo sobre o desempenho dos países que adotam o regime de metas de inflação desde a crise está logo abaixo.

Is it monetary policy? Or some omitted variable?). There seems to be a positive effect of an inflation targeting regime on economic performance since August 2008. This effect is robust to controlling for several variables that the literature has established as important determinants of post-crisis economic performance (short-term external debt to GDP, post-crisis changes in terms of trade and pre-crisis growth in private credit and current account balance).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Comments are welcome.

Since August 2008, IT countries lowered nominal and real policy rates than other countries; were less likely to face deflation scares; and IT currencies depreciated sharply in real terms but their risk assessment by markets did not deteriorate. I could not find any difference in unemployment dynamics but advanced IT countries had stronger industrial production growth. Finally, I estimated a reduced form econometric model for the post-crisis change in GDP growth rates, finding a positive effect of IT. This effect is robust to inclusion of other determinants of growth performance after the crisis, such as short-term external debt to GDP, the growth performance of trading partners, post-crisis changes in terms of trade and pre-crisis growth in private credit and current account balance.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;UPDATE:&lt;/b&gt;When preparing my seminar presentation, I combed through the data and caught a few data mistakes (for one major country I had read the nominal instead of real GDP series). Therefore I spent the last few hours updating the tables and charts. No change in the message though.

Hoje, no Brasil, os inconformados com a democracia representativa se organizam no governo para solapar o regime democrático.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É intolerável assistir ao uso de órgãos do Estado como extensão de um partido político, máquina de violação de sigilos e de agressão a direitos individuais.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É inaceitável que a militância partidária tenha convertido os órgãos da administração direta, empresas estatais e fundos de pensão em centros de produção de dossiês contra adversários políticos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É lamentável que o Presidente esconda no governo que vemos o governo que não vemos, no qual as relações de compadrio e da fisiologia, quando não escandalosamente familiares, arbitram os altos interesses do país, negando-se a qualquer controle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É inconcebível que uma das mais importantes democracias do mundo seja assombrada por uma forma de autoritarismo hipócrita, que, na certeza da impunidade, já não se preocupa mais nem mesmo em fingir honestidade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É constrangedor que o Presidente da República não entenda que o seu cargo deve ser exercido em sua plenitude nas vinte e quatro horas do dia. Não há “depois do expediente” para um Chefe de Estado. É constrangedor também que ele não tenha a compostura de separar o homem de Estado do homem de partido, pondo-se a aviltar os seus adversários políticos com linguagem inaceitável, incompatível com o decoro do cargo, numa manifestação escancarada de abuso de poder político e de uso da máquina oficial em favor de uma candidatura. Ele não vê no “outro” um adversário que deve ser vencido segundo regras da Democracia , mas um inimigo que tem de ser eliminado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É aviltante que o governo estimule e financie a ação de grupos que pedem abertamente restrições à liberdade de imprensa, propondo mecanismos autoritários de submissão de jornalistas e empresas de comunicação às determinações de um partido político e de seus interesses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É repugnante que essa mesma máquina oficial de publicidade tenha sido mobilizada para reescrever a História, procurando desmerecer o trabalho de brasileiros e brasileiras que construíram as bases da estabilidade econômica e política, com o fim da inflação, a democratização do crédito, a expansão da telefonia e outras transformações que tantos benefícios trouxeram ao nosso povo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;É um insulto à República que o Poder Legislativo seja tratado como mera extensão do Executivo, explicitando o intento de encabrestar o Senado. É um escárnio que o mesmo Presidente lamente publicamente o fato de ter de se submeter às decisões do Poder Judiciário.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Cumpre-nos, pois, combater essa visão regressiva do processo político, que supõe que o poder conquistado nas urnas ou a popularidade de um líder lhe conferem licença para rasgar a Constituição e as leis. Propomos uma firme mobilização em favor de sua preservação, repudiando a ação daqueles que hoje usam de subterfúgios para solapá-las. É preciso brecar essa marcha para o autoritarismo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brasileiros erguem sua voz em defesa da Constituição, das instituições e da legalidade.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Não precisamos de soberanos com pretensões paternas, mas de democratas convictos.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-2584766062849164612?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/2584766062849164612/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2010/09/manifesto-em-defesa-da-democracia.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/2584766062849164612'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/2584766062849164612'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2010/09/manifesto-em-defesa-da-democracia.html' title='Manifesto em defesa da democracia'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-3723270972697942833</id><published>2010-09-12T17:07:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-27T10:45:45.640-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Renato P.

Eu não me lembro). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Comecei a estudar o assunto, aprendi um bocado com o Leonardo, outro bocado na Library of Congress e nós acabamos escrevendo um artigo sobre os efeitos de longo prazo das colônias oficiais – isto é, as colônias organizadas ou subsidiadas pelo governo federal/imperial ou estadual/provincial naquele estado entre 1824 (data da fundação da colônia São Leopoldo) e a Primeira Grande Guerra.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O Leonardo agora está indo para Paris apresentar o artigo na &lt;a href="http://www.parisschoolofeconomics.eu/spip.php?article1176&amp;amp;lang=en"&gt;3rd International Conference MIGRATION &amp;amp; DEVELOPPEMENT&lt;/a&gt; na Paris School of Economics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Vou postar o artigo em breve. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;This paper studies the long-term consequences of the government-sponsored programs of European immigration to Southern Brazil before the Great War. We find that the municipalities closer to the original sites of nineteenth century government sponsored settlements (&lt;strong&gt;colônias&lt;/strong&gt;) have higher per capita income, less poverty and dependence on Bolsa Família cash transfers, better health and education outcomes, and may also have less homicides; and for the areas close to German colonies, also less inequality of income and educational outcomes than otherwise. Since that is a reduced form relationship, we then attempt to identify the relative importance of more egalitarian landholdings and higher initial human capital in determining those outcomes. Our findings are suggestive that more egalitarian land distribution played a more important role than higher initial human capital in achieving the good outcomes associated with closeness to a &lt;strong&gt;colônia&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1151296233343513481-8265348800771890377?l=irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/feeds/8265348800771890377/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2010/09/how-bodo-became-brazilian-european.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/8265348800771890377'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1151296233343513481/posts/default/8265348800771890377'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://irineudecarvalhofilho.blogspot.com/2010/09/how-bodo-became-brazilian-european.html' title='How Bodo Became Brazilian: European Migration to Southern Brazil Before World War I'/><author><name>Irineu de Carvalho Filho</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14102218468110108053</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='29' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-PKbVGqxJMAA/TWfSERuMx-I/AAAAAAAAAC0/VJwiyXwyjyA/s220/YourPicture.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1151296233343513481.post-198497172785730149</id><published>2010-09-03T16:50:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-09-03T16:50:20.012-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Bem-vindos!
