    Export Growth and Diversification : The Case of Peru (2011)

    Content: The rapid growth of exports since the early 1990s is a central feature in the extraordinary rise of Peru's economy in recent years. This study puts a lens on this export growth episode, with special attention to two issues. The first one is the role of international price levels as well as export volumes in explaining this growth. The second one is whether Peru has seen a diversification of its exports during this growth episode. The empirical analysis finds that although the increase in international mineral prices has exerted a significant impact in recent years, much of the growth of Peru's export revenues has also been related to an increase in volumes. This finding applies to traditional and non- traditional exports, although the importance of volumes is more predominant for the latter. The analysis does not reveal a trend toward greater diversification of Peru's exports since 1993. On the contrary, some of the evidence suggests that the rises in price and volumes in the mining components could be leading to greater concentration. Nonetheless, there is a clear trend toward diversification among non-traditional exports due to the significant emergence of new export products in recent years

    Content: Globally, cities are the source of over 70 percent of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. Cities are also the engines of the global economy, concentrating more than half the world's population, and they are where the middle class is rapidly expanding. Indeed, by the year 2050, two-thirds of the world will be urban, with cities accommodating an additional 2.5 billion people over today's total. Nearly all of this urban growth will occur in developing countries. This concentration of people and assets also means that the impacts of natural disasters, exacerbated by the changing climate, may be even more devastating, both in terms of human lives lost and economic livelihoods destroyed. These effects will disproportionately burden the poor. Earth is on a trajectory of warming more than 1.5 degrees Celsius unless important decarbonizing steps are taken.Often urban policymakers prescribe integration as the solution to steering urbanization towards decarbonization to achieve greater global and local environmental benefits. However, little is known about the struggles-and successes-that cities in developing countries have in planning, financing, and implementing integrated urban solutions. The main objective of this report is to understand how a variety of developing and emerging economies are successfully utilizing horizontal integration-across multiple infrastructure sectors and systems-at the metropolitan scale to deliver greater sustainability. This report explores how integrated planning processes extending well beyond city boundaries have been financed and implemented in a diverse group of metropolitan areas. From this analysis, the report derives models, poses guiding questions, and presents three key principles to provoke and inspire action by cities around the world

    Institutions and Firms' Return to Innovation : Evidence from the World Bank Enterprise Survey (2014)

    Format: 1 Online-Ressource (24 p)
    Content: This paper poses a question: do firms in developing countries not innovate because they are unwilling to? The question moves away from the conventional focus on the obstacles (such as the lack of access to finance) that hinder firms' innovation ability. The World Bank's Enterprise Survey is used first to estimate the return to firms' innovation across many developing countries, in terms of sales and sales per worker. Then the return to innovation is compared across countries with different levels of institutional quality. In countries with lower institutional quality (specifically, rule of law, regulatory quality, property and patent right protection), the return to firms' innovation is lower. This suggests that poor institutional environment lowers firms' return to innovation and hence discourages them from investing in researching and adopting new products

El volumen examina estos elementos en el proceso mas amplio de internacionalizacion en el contexto del desarrollo global de la educacion superior. Analiza la contribucion potencial de la internacionalizacion a la construccion de la institucion y de la nacion, examinando temas tales como las repercusiones del comercio, nuevas formas de entrega, nuevos proveedores y la relevancia de la acreditacion y de la certificacion de calidad para la educacion superior y sus dimensiones internacionales

    Content: Este informe brinda una evaluacion preliminar del acuerdo de libre comercio celebrado con America Central y Republica Dominicana (DR-CAFTA, por sus siglas en ingles), con especial atencion a tres temas principales: 1) los beneficios comerciales y no comerciales esperados, 2) las acciones que los paises de America Central necesitan adoptar para aprovechar las nuevas oportunidades y 3) la identificacion de los grupos de la poblacion que pueden requerir asistencia para adaptarse a un entorno mas competitivo. El documento coloca al DR-CAFTA en el contexto historico de las reformas economicas que se han implementado en los paises centroamericanos desde finales de la decada de 1980 y luego lo situa en el contexto actual. Asimismo, examina varios analisis que evaluan los impactos potenciales del DR-CAFTA en los paises de America Central e identifica las poblaciones que se veran posiblemente afectadas por la eliminacion de barreras al comercio en los productos agricolas sensibles, analizando las mejores opciones de politicas para ayudar a los grupos vulnerables. El informe tambien examina las pruebas asociadas con las implicaciones macroeconomicas principales del DR-CAFTA estudiando el potencial de perdida de ingreso y el efecto que podria tener sobre los patrones de sincronizacion del ciclo comercial y las pruebas de cada uno de los paises centroamericanos en las areas de facilitacion del comercio, reformas institucionales y normativas, ademas de en innovacion y educacion, con el proposito de identificar las principales prioridades de la agenda complementaria del DR-CAFTA

    Increasing Access to Justice in Fragile Settings (2023)
    Washington, D.C : The World Bank

    Format: 1 Online-Ressource
    Series Statement: 39458
    Content: This report explores the paths to increase access to justice in Fragile and Conflict-Affected Situations (FCS). It provides an analytical overview of the most common barriers to access to justice and presents the value and prerequisites of eight options available to governments to increase access to justice in these contexts. Fragile environments are considered among the most difficult for publicsector reforms, including judicial reform, partly because the root cause for fragility or conflict is often multifaceted. FCS are characterized by rapidly changing circumstances, differing levels of security, fragile and volatile political situations, low institutional capacity, and a weak enabling and investment climate for the private sector. The report takes these aspects into consideration and proposes context-specific policy implications. The report is intended for justice professionals and the general audience of development experts alike, and is designed to be a repository of data and country examples on common barriers and solutions for increasing access to justice in FCS. It can serve as a starting point for reform design and research toward good practices implemented across the world. The report relies on publicly available data and does not do any data collection. As such, it carries the limitations of the underlying datasets, including a general lack of data on outcomes and the unavailability of gender-disaggregated data. Section 1 discusses the determinants of access to justice and defines the concept of fragility used throughout the report. Section 2 uses publicly available data to extract common barriers to access to justice in FCS and organizes them around the three dimensions of access to justice. Section 3 outlines ways that these barriers can be addressed with corresponding in-country applications. Section 4 concludes by summarizing the policy implications of this analysis for governments

    Content: Deborah L. Jaramillo investigates cable news' presentation of the Iraq War in relation to "high concept" filmmaking. High concept films can be reduced to single-sentence summaries and feature pre-sold elements; they were considered financially safe projects that would sustain consumer interest beyond their initial theatrical run. Using high concept as a framework for the analysis of the 2003 coverage of the Iraq War -- paying close attention to how Fox News and CNN packaged and promoted the U.S. invasion of Iraq -- Ugly War, Pretty Package offers a new paradigm for understanding how television news reporting shapes our perceptions of events.
