Abstract

EI territorio de Quintana Roo, en el sureste de Mexico, en la frontera con Bel ice, nace en 1902. Una de las dificultades recurrentes del territorio fue la ausencia de población y las medidas adoptadas para atraer a nuevos habitantes. Y también para definir a estos habitante. En esta región periférica, la población constituye un desafío estratégico para la consolidación de la soberanía nacional; manifiesta la afirmación de un biopoder -y de sus límites- que lleva a imponer las características raciales y nacionales de la población. Mediante el estudio de la radicalización de las políticas migratorias, y también de las políticas de integración y de desarrollo de la región (expediciones científicas, acceso a las tierras, tipo de explotación territorial), se trata de introducir una alteridad distinta a la indígena en las reflexiones sobre la nación el mestizaje y la raza, a partir del caso del extranjero negro. Esta investigación inscribe a México en la historia de las sociedades posesclavistas caribeñas marcadas por las migraciones de trabajadores afrodescendientes, y da cuenta del surgimiento de una nueva entidad político-administrativa al margen de la nación. EI libro aporta una nueva luz sobre las lógicas de inclusión y de exclusión propias de las políticas de mestizaje en el México posrevolucionario, por medio de un doble desfase analítico: estudiar eL lugar de las poblaciones negras más que el de las indígenas; centrarse en la inmigración más que en la autoctonía.

Abstract

Belize is exceptionally vulnerable to natural disasters and climate change. It already faces hurricanes, flooding, sea level rise, coastal erosion, coral bleaching, and droughts, with impacts likely to intensify given expected increases in weather volatility and sea temperature. Hence, planning for resilience-building, and engagement with development partners on environmental reforms, have been central to Belizean policymaking for many years, since well before Belize submitted its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) to the Paris Accord in 2015. This Climate Change Policy Assessment (CCPA) takes stock of Belize’s plans to manage its climate response, from the perspective of their macroeconomic and fiscal implications. The CCPA is a joint initiative by the IMF and World Bank to assist small states to understand and manage the expected economic impact of climate change, while safeguarding long-run fiscal and external sustainability. It explores the possible impact of climate change and natural disasters on the macroeconomy and the cost of Belize’s planned response. It suggests macroeconomically relevant reforms that could strengthen the likelihood of success of the national strategy and identifies policy gaps and resource needs.

Abstract

Belize’s economic growth has slowed over the last five years, following decades of outperforming regional peers. As in other countries in the region, a central challenge is exiting the cycle of low growth and elevated public debt. Belize’s 2017 debt rescheduling provided cash flow relief. In March 2017, the government reached a restructuring agreement with private external bondholders on its US$526 million bond (about 30 percent of GDP).1 As part of the agreement, the authorities committed to tighten the fiscal stance by 3.0 percentage points in FY2017/18 and to maintain a primary surplus of 2.0 percent of GDP for the subsequent three years. The authorities are delivering on these commitments and have made progress in implementing recent Article IV recommendations (Annex I).
