Antiziganismus ist in der pädagogischen Arbeit mit Jugendlichen ein wirkmächtiger Komplex. Im Rahmen einer ethnographischen Studie zweier Jugendzentren zeigt Kathrin Schulze auf, wie sich dieser in der alltäglichen Praxis entfaltet. Sie legt dar, inwiefern sozialpädagogische Fachkräfte die Jugendlichen situativ auf der Grundlage von antiziganistischen Stereotypen differenzieren und damit diskriminierende Effekte hervorbringen. Mit dem Fokus auf der alltäglich-situativen Herstellungspraxis antiziganistischer Ordnungen liefert sie einen Beitrag zur bislang noch vernachlässigten Problematisierung des Antiziganismus im Kontext der Sozialen Arbeit.

This paper presents Côte d'Ivoire’s poverty reduction and growth strategy. The macroeconomic framework has been sound, with low inflation, a sustainable public sector, a robust banking system and a balanced external position. Poverty in Côte d'Ivoire has been steadily decreasing since 2016, continuing the trend observed since early 2011. Access to electricity has improved throughout the national territory. Actions have been undertaken to enhance the economy’s productivity through the strengthening of infrastructure and governance. In particular, Côte d’Ivoire is committed to advancing equality between men and women in all areas of public and private life, in order to empower women economically, socially, and politically and achieve a more egalitarian society. The government has undertaken to step up actions in favor of girls' education, increase access rates.

In developing economies, a shift to working from home during the COVID-19 pandemic varies substantially. An increase in teleworking days per week ranges from 0.7 to 17.6 percentage points across 10 developing countries covered by an online survey to about 500 respondents per country. An estimated income discount associated with telework disappeared temporarily at the onset of the pandemic. A calibrated model indicates that workers’ preferences to telework may largely depend on their educational attainments. Whether telework will sustain in these countries could depend on obstacles to telework, particularly for workers with less education, and a degree of economy-wide externality.

We identify key drivers of digital adoption, estimate fiscal costs to provide internet subsidies to households, and calculate social dividends from digital adoption. Using cross-country panel regressions and machine learning, we find that digital infrastructure coverage, internet price, and usability are the most statistically robust predictors of internet use in the short run. Based on estimates from a model of demand for internet, we find that demand is most price responsive in low-income developing countries and almost unresponsive in advanced economies. We estimate that moving low-income developing and emerging market economies to the levels of digital adoption in emerging and advanced economies, respectively, will require annual targeted subsidies of 1.8 and 0.05 percent of GDP, respectively. To aid with subsidy targeting, we use microdata from over 150 countries and document a digital divide by gender, socio-economic status, and demographics. Finally, we find substantial aggregate and distributional gains from digital adoption for education quality, time spent doing unpaid work, and labor force participation by gender.

The 2022 Article IV Consultation discusses that France saw a robust recovery from the coronavirus disease 2019 shock but is now facing the repercussions of Russia’s war in Ukraine. The large fiscal response to the energy price shock has cushioned the economic impact but has been costly, poorly targeted, and distortionary. IMF estimates growth at 2.6 percent in 2022 and 0.7 percent in 2023, with inflation averaging 5.9 and 5 percent, respectively. Near-term risks to the outlook are tilted to the downside, dominated by possible further impacts of Russia’s war against Ukraine. Under current policies, the fiscal deficit is expected to narrow as support is phased out and the economy recovers but will remain elevated at 4 percent of gross domestic product in the medium term. Labor-market policies should ensure smooth transition of apprentices into permanent work while addressing skills shortages and inferior educational outcomes. Continuing structural reforms, particularly in pensions, unemployment, and product and services markets will be essential for future fiscal health as well as better competitiveness and growth. The energy crisis presents an opportunity to accelerate the green transition through energy conservation and a faster switch to renewable energy.
