We will be asking ourselves if the trading blocs created or renewed since the end of the 1980s favor the multilateralization of trade, and so constitute building or stumbling blocks. In a gravity model using panel data, we estimate a set of three regional dummies representative of intra-bloc...

This paper uses a gravity model with panel data and 3 regional dummies to assess the effects of the new free trade agreements signed between Latin American countries in the 90's. The originality of this research lies in the spectrum of agreements covered (big customs unions as well as bilateral...

The future membership of CEECs in the eurozone involves the risk of external asymmetric shocks, due to too strong a dependence on one sector or one customer country. By defining two indicators - sector-based and geographic - of exposure to shocks, taking into account the symmetry of the export...

Brazilian Amazon deforestation rate is found to display a unit root and to be cointegrated with Brazilian GDP and its square – An Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC). Although, it is not the first time that such an EKC is detected, this may be the first such time-series evidence. Detecting an...

A partir d'un modèle de gravité en données de panel, nous estimons les effets sur les exportations du contrôle des émissions de CO2 d'un pays relativement à ses partenaires. Pour la première fois dans une étude sur la restriction environnementale, le modèle introduit des variables dummy...

L'Equation de Kaya exprime les émissions de CO2 d'un pays en fonction de facteurs économique, démographique et énergétique. Plusieurs travaux décomposent par période, à partir de cette équation, les effets sur les émissions brésiliennes des variables de population, de PIB par tête,...
