title: A REGIONAL PERSPECTIVE OF THE CREATIVE ECONOMY IN BRAZIL

description: Abstract In a knowledge-based economy, initiatives based on the Creative Economy framework are supposed to promote regional economic diversification in developing countries. In Brazil, policy initiatives have focused on those activities with a view to design public policies oriented to reducing socio-economic and regional inequalities, as well as spreading those activities throughout the territory, especially towards less favored regions. Based on the Brazilian experience, this article discusses whether the pre-existing regional distribution of various types of creative activities favors or hinders the reduction of regional inequalities as a result of a policy focused on promoting creative activities and what actions could be adopted to achieve this result. Specifically, the paper discusses whether this expansion can promote an effective reduction of regional inequalities in terms of the number and quality of jobs and wage levels associated with those activities. The analysis suggests that the regional decentralization of creative activities towards less developed regions has been relatively limited in Brazil, as the more developed regions have remained more specialized in trades with higher digital and technological content, while the less developed regions have remained relatively more specialized in activities related to the cultural heritage. To reduce this imbalance, the support of local institutions and S&T infrastructure related to creative activities appears to be very important, which points out to the relevance of comprehensive policies well-adapted to very diverse local realities. This effort should have the impact of new digital-based technologies converge with the strengthening of economic potential of local and regional cultural heritage, by enhancing professional qualification of workers devoted to those activities.

title: EFFECTS OF THE MINIMUM WAGE POLICY ON THE METROPOLITAN LABOR MARKET: AN EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS FROM VECTORS AUTOREGRESSIVE (VAR) - (2003-2015)

description: ABSTRACT In order to verify the effects of the minimum wage policy has on the Brazilian metropolitan labor market, this study adds to check their interrelation with variables such as activity rate, degree of informality and unemployment rate in four Regions metropolitan (Recife, Porto Alegre, Belo Horizonte and São Paulo), separately, from January 2003 to March 2015. By using the vector autoregression method (VAR), the results show that the relationship between the minimum wage and activity rate occurred with labor ticket in just a study area. In the other regions are observed both a downward trend in the degree of informality as an increase in the unemployment rate.

title: THE EVOLUTION OF MODERN MACROECONOMICS BETWEEN PERSPECTIVES: IN SEARCH OF LOST SINTHESHIS

description: ABSTRACT Far from being a synthetic reconstruction of authors and ideas, the history of economic thought is presented more as narratives interspersed with different perspectives. An example of this is Keynes, who built his general theory to oppose the Classical School, but covering the neoclassical theory. Despite objections to the solecism of Keynes, the history of economic thought was reckoned incorporating his definition but few exceptions. The aim of this paper is to analyze the main contributions to macroeconomic thinking from two different analytical cuts, the conventional synthesized by Joan Robinson and that of Keynes. Therefore we argue the use of these different perspectives on understanding of same contents, causes uncertainties in Macroeconomics stopping to adequately consider the overlapping and contradictory aspects of macroeconomic theories.

title: THE RELANTIONSHIP BETWEEN PRICE AND DEMAND FOR FOOTBALL MATCHES IN BRAZIL

description: ABSTRACT The football industry moves around the world every year, according to Belo and Paolozzi (2013), worth between $ 400 billion and $ 1 trillion. As an economic activity, it has attracted the attention of several academic studies (DOBSON and GODDARD, 2001; SOUZA, 2004 and MADALOZZO, 2008). Among the results obtained in these studies, there are differences regarding the price variable in the demand equations for soccer. Thus, this study aims to identify the relationship between price and demand for soccer. Secondary data were used from IBGE, CBF and Pluri Consultoria. The search does an analysis of 380 games of the Brazilian championship. To estimate the demand, the OLS method was used. The dependent variable was the dependent model present in the stadiums. The results showed that the demand function is inhomogeneous.

title: THE IMPACT OF MONETARY POLICY ON THE EXCHANGE RATE IN BRAZIL: IDENTIFICATION THROUGH HETEROCEDASTICITY

description: ABSTRACT This study aims to analyze the effects of Brazilian monetary policy on the exchange rate in from 2004 to 2016 taking into account the endogeneity problem of monetary policy. To address the issue of endogeneity of monetary policy the method of identification through heteroscedasticity is used. The main advantage of this method is that it is based on the statistical behavior of the series, it is not necessary to make arbitrary assumptions of identification. The results show that there is a positive relationship between the interest rate and the exchange rate in Brazil.

title: HAVE WE REALLY “RUN OUT OF MONEY”? INTEREST RATES AND THE FINANCING OF PUBLIC EXPENDITURES IN A SOVEREIGN CURRENCY COUNTRY

description: ABSTRACT This paper discusses the financing of public expenditures and the determination of interest rates on short and long public bonds in a country that has monetary sovereignty. The analysis follows the exogenous interest rate approach that combines the notions of endogenous money of modern monetary theory and of functional finance from Lerner. Focusing particularly in the case of Brazil, the paper begins with the analysis of the operational procedures of government financing and the relationship between Treasury and the Central Bank, the relationship between government financing and the short and long term interest rates on public bonds. As a country (not just the public sector) can indeed go bankrupt in terms of foreign currency, this is followed by the analysis of the “sovereign risk” spread and its relationship with the external liabilities in foreign currency of the country (and not of the public sector) and a brief discussion of the relationship between the spread and the ratings of the international agencies. We conclude by very succinctly pointing out some implications of the above analysis to the recent discussion in Brazil (since 2015) on the need of a major “fiscal adjustment”.

title: THE ECONOMIC POLICY OF NEW DEVELOPMENTALISM

description: ABSTRACT The aim of this article is to discuss the application of the theoretical framework of the new developmentalism to the formulation of a macroeconomic policy proposal. Besides the discussion of the theoretical principles of the new developmentalism, the scenario of the last years is analyzed and, subsequently, a macroeconomic policy based on this approachis proposed. Particular emphasis is assigned to the relevance of maintaining the so-called macroeconomic prices at their correct level for the catching-up process based on the sophistication of the productive structure, that is, on the structural change towards larger shares of manufacturing and modern services in value added.

title: CHANGES IN THE CHINESE DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY AFTER THE GLOBAL CRISIS AND ITS IMPACTS IN LATIN AMERICA

description: ABSTRACT This paper aims to analyze the recent changes in economic relations between Latin American countries and China in the context of the transformations occurred in the latter’s development strategy after the global financial crisis. The text argues that, in relation to the first decade of the twenty-first century, connections linked to FDI, financing flows, and infrastructure projects have been growing in importance and present new challenges to Latin America, which surpass the ones based only on trade flows.

title: THE RISE AND FALL OF DILMA ROUSSEFF GOVERNMENT AND THE 2016 COUP: STRUCTURAL POWER, CONTRADICTION AND IDEOLOGY

description: ABSTRACT The article seeks to understand the Dilma Rousseff government and the 2016 coup, considering the structural power of the financial capital and the contradictions inherent to the models of economic growth and political coalition observed since the Lula administration. It is argued that the Rousseff government’s economic project sought to overcome some of these contradictions. The government, however, was unable to carry out either the institutional reforms or the political changes necessary for the success of its project, in the context of an economic slowdown and the sharpening of international competition and social conflicts in Brazil. The economic policy is evaluated from the austerity of 2011 to that of 2015, passing through the so-called New Economic Matrix and its gradual dismantling in 2013. The origins of the bourgeoisie’s unification around a neoliberal program in 2016 are analyzed, as well as the relationship between the middle-class revolt and the political-judicial attack resulting on the 2016 coup.

title: THE INTERNATIONALIZATION OF SOUTH KOREAN COMPANIES AND THE ROLE OF THE STATE

description: ABSTRACT The purpose of this article is to present the process of (late) internationalization of Korean companies occurred between the years of 1990 and 2015, its determinants and the degree of involvement of the State in this process. We can point out some determinants in this process, such as: cheap labor, problematic domestic market, cost disadvantages, competition and a clear public strategy to turn South Korea into a regional power. We conclude that this process was not a result of free market forces. There was a perception by the government that this process would not only be relevant but also necessary for the virtuous integration of South Korea in the international trade and productive structures.

title: ASSESSING INFLATION TARGETING IN THE LATIN AMERICAN COUNTRIES IN THE PERIOD 2001-2014

description: ABSTRACT This paper aims to evaluate the performance of the monetary policy of inflation targeting regime in the Latin America countries from 2001 to 2014, with monthly data. For this purpose, a VEC model (vector error correction) is applied to running data to analyze the long-term function and the impulse response function. The results pointed out that the adoption of the target system has contributed to reduce the inflation rate and its volatility and the fluctuations in the rate of growth in activity level. The estimated parameters of the long-term speed of adjustment of the price index have indicated strong reaction by the monetary authorities to change inflation rate via short-term interest rate. These adjustments are also noted in the level of activity and the exchange rate for most countries, but with less level of speed. The impulse response function confirmed these results. Therefore, the monetary policy was effective to control inflation, especially in Peru, Colombia and Chile. In Brazil and Mexico, the effectiveness of monetary policy has only been observed more recently.

title: ANALYSIS OF THE MERGER BETWEEN AZUL & TRIP UNDER THE OPTICS OF THE EFFICIENCY GAINS

description: ABSTRACT This article aimed to evaluate the merger between the airlines Azul and Trip, measuring the potential efficiency gains from the act of concentration. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) models, in conjunction with the resampling technique called bootstrap, were used as instruments for this measurement. The results showed that: the efficiency gains resulting from the merger are very small; a combination between the application and the theory shows that the gains could be negative; the effects of scale do not work in favor of the merger, while the learning effects works in favor of the merger; the gains could occur in isolation (individually).
