Working Paper Land, Property and Urban Planning(2024) Sala, Safira De La; Alterman, RachelleOne of the most pressing issues of present times is climate change. With over 55% of the world population living in cities, the question is particularly relevant for urban settlements, and how to consolidate environmental justice in such scenarios. How shall the rule of law approach the matter? It will depend on each place's specific environmental, social and cultural elements, keeping in mind the most needed safeguard of fundamental rights. One of those is property. How does property, underpinning land use and urban planning law, relate to such challenges? This chapter aims to provide an introductory theoretical overview of real (land-related) property and climate change. (Henceforth, by “property” we will be referring to real property). We argue that the impact of property rights on mitigation and adaptation to climate change can be both positive and negative. These will differ across different property rights and planning law regimes in contending with the challenges of climate change.Working Paper Analyzing determinants of foreign credit demand for sovereign bonds*(2021) Silva, Victor Hugo C. Alexandrino da; Drzeviechi, Maria Clara; Garcia, Gabriella; Netto, Augusto A. S.This paper aims to investigate the economic determinants of foreign credit demand for sovereign bonds in selected emerging and advanced countries. Furthermore, it is an objective to understand what causes a greater impact on this demand: the country’s domestic macroeconomic fundamentals or the external global environment. To this end, using data on share of foreign demand for sovereign bonds, an econometric analysis will be conducted with panel data from 2004 to 2019 for 45 emerging and advanced markets. The main findings show that both domestic fundamentals and the external environment affect the foreign participation in sovereign debt, but results vary depending on the degree of development and the channel through each variable affect our dependent variable. We find that domestic fundamentals seem to be related with the increase in foreign participation for both group of economies, but with different magnitudes and interpretation. For some variables, it is more related to the foreign demand of sovereign bonds and, for others, associated with the bond supply. The degree of development also seems to be important to the external environment. For some variables (US nominal interest rate), the ’search for yield’ plays a major role for the bond demand. But, for others (as the FX volatility and the VIX Index), the global demand is related with foreign investors’ risk aversion. Finally, we found that, in times of global turmoil, domestic fundamentals matter less for foreign attractiveness than in times when the global volatility is low.Working Paper Rational Sunspots(2016) Ascari, Guido; Banomolo, Paolo; HEDIBERT FREITAS LOPESThe instability of macroeconomic variables is usually ruled out by rational expectations. We propose a generalization of the rational expectations framework to estimate possible temporary unstable paths. Our approach yields drifting parameters and stochastic volatility. The methodology allows the data to choose between diferent possible alternatives: determinacy, indeterminacy and instability. We apply our methodology to US inflation dynamics in the '70s through the lens of a simple New Keynesian model. When unstable RE paths are allowed, the data unambiguously select them to explain the stagflation period in the '70s. Thus, our methodology suggests that US inflation dynamics in the '70s is better described by unstable rational equilibrium paths.Working Paper Fatores de propensão à compra em canais de atendimento telefônico (Call Center)(2015) Gelape, Giovanni Léo; ADRIANA BRUSCATO BORTOLUZZO; DANNY PIMENTEL CLAROWorking Paper Determinantes da Distribuição da Igualdade de Gênero entre os Estados Brasileiros(2015) Matavelli, Ieda Rodrigues; ADRIANA BRUSCATO BORTOLUZZO; Madalozzo, Regina CarlaWorking Paper Earning Management in Brazilian Financial Institution(2015) Gomes, Ana Luiza Porto; Sheng, Hsia Hua; ADRIANA BRUSCATO BORTOLUZZOWorking Paper Teoria dos valores extremos adequa-se ao Ibovespa na crise de 2008?(2015) Fernando Caritá; Cardoso Junior, Nilton Deodoro Moreira; Rosal, João Maurício; ADRIANA BRUSCATO BORTOLUZZOWorking Paper Ambiguity Aversion in the Long Run: "To Disagree, We Must Also Agree"(2015) Araujo, Aloisio; Silva, Pietro da; JOSÉ HELENO FAROWe consider an economy populated by smooth ambiguity-averse agents with complete markets of securities contingent to economic scenarios, where bankruptcy is permitted but there is a penalty for it. We show that if agentsí posterior belief reductions given by their ìaverage proba bilistic beliefs" do not become homogeneous then an equilibrium does not exist. It is worth noting that our main result does not imply any conver gence of ambiguity perception or even the attitudes towards it. In this way, complete markets with default and punishment allows for ambiguity aversion in the long run, and the agents can disagree on their ambiguity perception but they must agree on their expected beliefs.Working Paper The impact of the expansion of the bolsa familia program on the time allocation of youths and their parents(2015) Chitolina, Lia; Foguel, Miguel Nathan; NAERCIO AQUINO MENEZES FILHOThis paper evaluates the impact of the 2007 expansion of the Bolsa Família program to families with youths aged 16 to 17 years on the time allocation of youths and on the labor supply of their parents. A differences-in-differences intention to treat estimator was used to compare poor households with 16-year-old youths with households with 15-year-old adolescents before and after the expansion. The results show that granting the benefit had a positive and significant impact on school attendance, helping bridge 25% of the gap in school attendance between rich and poor households, and on the decision of young people to study and work at the same time.Working Paper Probabilidades de Admissão e Desligamento no Mercado de Trabalho Brasileiro(2015) Nunes, Douglas Uemura; NAERCIO AQUINO MENEZES FILHO; Komatsu, Bruno KawaokaEste artigo avalia as probabilidades de admissão e desligamento no mercado de trabalho brasileiro, e mensura sua contribuição para a variabilidade cíclica da taxa de desemprego no país. Para isso, é utilizada uma metodologia recente, que permite a obtenção das probabilidades através dos estoques de empregados e desempregos corrigindo o viés de agregação de tempo. Verificamos que, para o período de 1983 a 2001, as oscilações da taxa de admissão foram responsáveis por 75% da variabilidade da taxa de desemprego nas principais regiões metropolitanas do Brasil. Entre 2004 e 2013 a taxa de admissão explica 80% dessas variações.
