Global Entrepreneurship and Development Index 2018

By: Zoltán J. Ács,László Szerb,Esteban Lafuente,Ainsley Lloyd

This brief presents a detailed look at the entrepreneurial ecosystem of nations around the world by combining individual data with institutional components. Presenting data from the 2018 Global Entrepreneurship and Development Index (GEDI), which measures the quality and scale of entrepreneurial process from 137 countries world-wide, this book provides a rich understanding of entrepreneurship and a more precise means to measure it. The novelty of the GEDI 2018 edition is the examination of the connection between the GEDI score and the computed total factor productivity (TFP) values. The Global Entrepreneurship and Development Index is an annual index (composite indicator) that measures the health of the entrepreneurship ecosystems in a given country. The authors have identified 14 components (or pillars) that are important for the health of entrepreneurial ecosystems, identified data to capture each , and used this data to calculate three levels of scores for a given country: the overall GEDI score, scores for Individuals and Institutions, and pillar level scores (which measure the quality of each of the 14 components).

The Digital Platform Economy Index 2020

By: László Szerb,Eva Somogyine Komlosi,Zoltan J. Acs,Esteban Lafuente,Abraham K. Song

This book presents the 2020 Digital Platform Economy Index (DPE Index). The DPE Index integrates two separate but related literatures on ecosystems, namely, the digital ecosystem and the entrepreneurial ecosystem. This new framework situates digital entrepreneurship within the broader context of users, platforms, and institutions, such that two biotic entities (users and agents) actuate individual agency, and two abiotic components (digital infrastructure and digital platforms) form the external environment. The DPE Index framework includes 12 pillars that integrate the digital and the entrepreneurship ecosystems. Here, the authors report on the DPE Index, the four sub-indices, and the 12 pillar values for 116 countries as well as provide a cluster analysis based on the 12 pillars.

Despu S de La Galerna

By: Esteban Casa as Lostal

Tal es la masa heterogénea que conforma y aglutina a los marinos, sea cual sea su nacionalidad, que esa estrecha vinculación con el medio influyó notablemente en la carrera y la personalidad de Esteban Casañas. Para resumir, es un lobo de mar por cuyas venas corre tanto la sangre como el agua salada, cuya forma de pensar, léxico, y manera de actuar, son totalmente las de un marino de la cabeza a los pies. Casañas describe a hombres (y mujeres) y hechos con una narrativa apasionante, bien hilvanada y absolutamente realista. Tanto, que a medida que leemos cada línea nos parece balancearnos en el puente o la cubierta de un barco o ensordecer con la algarabía de un bar portuario entre los aromas del humo de tabaco, los vapores de las bebidas alcohólicas y la presencia de las meretrices locales...

Social Expenditure in Central America, Panama and the Dominican Republic at a Glance

2007-2013

By: Marco Solera,Esteban Durán,Jordi Prat,Víctor Dumas,Mariano Lafuente,Martín Ardanaz,Priscilla Gutiérrez Juárez,Jorge Vargas Cullell,Javier Beverinotti

Social spending is a powerful tool to reduce poverty, achieve higher equality and better life conditions for the inhabitants of a country. In "Social Expenditure in Central America, Panama and the Dominican Republic: 2007-2013", a characterization of the different variables that have taken social expenditure to its current position is performed. During the economic crisis period, many governments of the region confront this situation with an increase in social expenditures. However, part of the increase was centered on inflexible items, particularly wages, which facilitated the increase in fiscal deficits and, consequently, on public debt. Thus, after the financial crisis, the fiscal situation has reduced governments' buffers to respond to economic shocks, which imply that we need to examine the fiscal policy given its rigidity, the scarcity of public resources and the institutional contract. The study of wage bill increases provides more information related to the causes of this dynamic, and allow us to offer recommendations to improve spending management without threatening public finances. A better use of resources could contribute to define a more efficient and equitable agenda for the countries in the region. Finally, something that was not deeply explored, as of today, is the institutional complexity and how this could facilitate, or hinder, the government's ability to express its fiscal policy, including the effectiveness in the use of public resources.
