This paper aims to discuss a methodology to calculate the error bands for exchange rate misalignments estimative. The exchange misalignment is not directly observed and its precision depends on the coefficients that link fundamentals to real effective exchange rate. The precision of exchange...

The objective of this study was to obtain an estimate for residential electricity demand in Minas Gerais in the period from 1970 to 2002. Specifically, the goal was to estimate price and income elasticities. After determining that the series under study were non-stationary, we chose to use the...

This study presents a comparative indicator of production sustainability in agriculture. Faced with the growing world demand for food and considering the centrality of the main producing and exporting countries of agricultural products in the world, it is important to identify the economies that...

The objective of the this study is to present an alternative approach to the current methodology implemented by Aneel for estimating efficiency of the distribution sector of electric energy in Brazil. For this purpose, Bayesian inference is applied in order to estimate a stochastic cost frontier...

Spanish Abstract: El artículo describe los principales aspectos estructurales e institucionales del comercio justo y una mirada a las implicaciones que tienen las prácticas comerciales para generar beneficios hacia los mercados internacionales, el desarrollo empresarial y el fortalecimiento de...

Spanish Abstract: El presente trabajo analiza la articulación de las relaciones precapitalistas y capitalistas en la producción de papa de los municipios de El Carmen de Viboral y La Unión ubicados en la subregión del Oriente antioqueño. Metodología: es un estudio cualitativo de casos...
