Abstract

Le tourisme joue un rôle de plus en plus important dans les économies de nombreux pays de l'OCDE. Comment mesurer l'impact économique du tourisme et son potentiel de création d'emplois ? Le compte satellite du tourisme et le module emploi - deux nouveaux instruments économiques élaborés par le Comité du tourisme de l'OCDE - permettent de déterminer l'impact socio-économique, la structure et l'évolution des activités liées au tourisme. Pour la première fois, Mesurer le rôle du tourisme dans les pays de l’OCDE: Manuel de l’OCDE sur les comptes satellites du tourisme et l’emploi décrit les expériences nationales les plus récentes dans la mise en oeuvre des comptes satellites du tourisme et présente les résultats des efforts déployés au cours de la dernière décennie pour développer de nouvelles méthodes d'analyse du tourisme et de l'emploi touristique. A travers l’analyse des expériences de 16 pays de l’OCDE, ce document attire l'attention du lecteur sur l'importance économique croissante du tourisme et fournit des éléments pratiques pour la mise en place d'outils de mesure de l'impact du tourisme et pour l'interprétation des résultats.

Abstract

It is now ten years since the former Soviet Union collapses and the countries of Europe and Central Asia abandoned central planning. Enough experience has accumulated to allow a more reflective study of the transition period. One of the most critical elements of the transition to a market-based economy has been the establishment of the institutions and markets that constitute a financial system. This book examines financial transition through the lens of flow of funds accounts. These accounts have been used in the OECD countries for many years as an aid in analyzing money flows around their fi

Abstract

Recent years have seen a substantial increase in the volatility of exchange rates. This trend has prompted economists and finance analysts to question if the observed behaviour of exchange rates is consistent with a rational model. Does that volatility hinder trade? What are financial markets' effects on countries' investment decisions, and how would changes in fixed exchange rates affect growth and welfare? What are the requirements to make such changes feasible? Professors Sercu and Uppal examine these issues in the context of dynamic general equilibrium models, explicitly considering the role of financial markets while allowing for commodity markets to be segmented across countries. They show that the theoretical models for exchange rates in this context are quite different from those put forth by monetary theorists and proponents of purchasing power parity arguments.

Abstract

This text is a rigorous introduction to international economics for upper-level undergraduates and above. The first half examines the causes and effects of international trade, how tariffs and other trade policies affect the gains from trade, and the ways in which governments try collectively to regulate those policies. The second half deals with monetary matters - the behavior of exchange rates, how trade and capital flows affect the functioning of monetary and fiscal policies, the causes and management of currency crises, and the new European Monetary Union (EMU). This fourth edition assesses the outcome of the Uruguay Round of trade negotiations, the work of the new World Trade Organization (WTO), and the challenges posed by regional trade blocs. It surveys recent theoretical work on currency crisis, examines recent crises in emerging-market countries and the role of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and appraises innovations in exchange-rate arrangements, including the EMU and the use of currency boards by emerging-market countries. A problem set follows each chapter.

Abstract

Mounting external debt and large-scale capital flight have been at the forefront of Africa's economic problems since the 1980s. External Debt and Capital Flight in Sub-Saharan Africa, edited by S. Ibi Ajayi and Mohsin S. Khan, takes a penetrating look at debt and capital flight during the 1990s in Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, Tanzania, and Uganda. The book describes the size and composition of debt in the selected countries and examines the causes of the debt buildup. It also assesses the extent of capital flight and suggests ways of stemming the flight of financial resources.
