Encuadernado en rústica semirrígida. Coeditado con la Consejería de Hacienda de la Comunidad de Madrid(1997). La aprobación de un nuevo sistema de financiación para las Comunidades de régimen común, que estara vigente durante el periodo 1997-2001, constituye el marco de referencia de este libro. Su objeto es analizar las implicaciones del nuevo modelo en la Comunidad de Madrid tomando como base las caracteristicas y potencialidades del sistema especialmente en el ambito de la corresponsabilidad fiscal y los escenarios posibles en el comportamiento de las variables basicas que determinan su evolucion, extendiendo los resultados al resto de las Comunidades Autonomas. Los autores realizan una aportacion importante en el intento de analizar de forma rigurosa un tema de tanta importancia economica y que ha suscitado el interes y la polemica en amplias capas de la sociedad española.

Mediante la información que se obtiene a través del mercado de valores y la que ofrece la contabilidad de las empresas se formulan, en este libro, ecuaciones de valoración en las que el valor de mercado de una empresa se explica como una funcion de la estructura economico-financiera de la misma (metodo analogico-bursatil).Se aplica la metodologia analogico-bursatil a la valoracion de las principales empresas españolas consideradas tanto por sectores (banca, energia, construccion, alimentacion) como de forma global. En cada sector se diferencia la valoracion de las empresas cuyas acciones cotizan en bolsa de aquellas otras cuyo capital social no se negocia en los mercados de valores, por no cumplir con los requisitos juridicos, economicos y tecnicos exigidos.

Encuadernado en rústica semirrígida. Coeditado con Mercapital y Ascri (1997). Tras más de una década de actividad, el sector del Capital Inversión está actualmente en un momento crucial de su desarrollo y consolidacion como una importante fuente alternativa de financiacion del crecimiento del tejido empresarial español. A pesar de la reciente evolucion, esperanzadora, de los mercados de capitales españoles, que augura un papel cada vez mayor de la bolsa en la financiacion de la economia real del pais, todavia hoy esta constituye una fuente de dificil acceso para la empresa mediana con alto potencial de crecimiento, frecuentemente, de caracter familiar y con elevadas necesidades de recursos. En este contexto, en el que la empresa española debe lanzarse al reto de posicionarse en los mercados, en un momento favorable, sin poder contar en muchos casos con la financiacion que los mercados de capitales deberian facilitar, el Capital Inversion se consolida como una alternativa muy adecuada para permitir y apoyar su desarrollo y su andadura hasta el siguiente estadio en la senda de su crecimiento.

How the environmental provisions in US preferential trade agreements affect both the environmental policies of trading partners and the effectiveness of multilateral environmental agreements.As trade negotiations within the World Trade Organization seem permanently stalled, countries turn increasingly to preferential trade agreements (PTAs) between smaller groups of nations. Many of these PTAs incorporate environmental provisions, some of which require trading partners to enact new domestic environmental laws, and use the enforcement mechanisms available within trade agreements as tools for environmental protection. In Greening through Trade, Sikina Jinnah and Jean-Frederic Morin provide the first detailed examination of how the environmental provisions in US preferential trade agreements affect both the environmental policies of trading partners and the effectiveness of multilateral environmental agreements. They do so through a combination of in-depth qualitative case studies and quantitative analysis of an original dataset of 688 global PTAs.

From one of the most respected economic thinkers and writers of our time a brilliant argument about the history and future of economic growth The years since the Great Crisis of 2008 have seen slow growth high unemployment falling home values chronic deficits a deepening disaster in Europe and a stale argument between two false solutions austerity on one side and stimulus on the other Both sides and practically all analyses of the crisis so far take for granted that the economic growth from the early 1950s until 2000 interrupted only by the troubled 1970s represented a normal performance From this perspective the crisis was an interruption caused by bad policy or bad people and full recovery is to be expected if the cause is corrected The End of Normalchallenges this view Placing the crisis in perspective Galbraith argues that the 1970s already ended the age of easy growth The 1980s and 1990s saw only uneven growth with rising inequality within and between countries And the 2000s saw the end even of that despite frantic efforts to keep growth going with tax cuts war spending and financial deregulation When the crisis finally came stimulus and automatic stabilization were able to place a floor under economic collapse But they are not able to b
