Although the topic is addressed under different prisms, few studies have empirically analyzed to what extent it can affect the quality of publications. Here we study (1) the link between the length of reviewers' reports and the citations received by publications, (2) The threshold (expressed in number of words in reviewers' reports) at which the effect on citations becomes statistically significant. To do this, we used data from the Publons database (58,093 peer review reports). We have adjusted this sample to match the WoS database structure.

Volatility has implications on the emerging economies' competitiveness and extemal-debt burden. This paper develops a simple model centered on debt dynamics. We show that an emerging economy can stabilize the domestic value of its extemal debt using three parameters: the currency composition of its debt, its exchange-rate regime, and the geographic structure of its trade.

Remittances and especially the role played by foreign pensions decrease the Gini index by nearly 4 % for the two Algerian regions, with the effect in Idjeur being twice as large as Nedroma. At the same time, they help reduce poverty by nearly 13 percentage points. Remittances have a strong positive impact on very poor families in Idjeur but much less in Nedroma, where poor families suffer from a "double loss" due to the absence of their migrants and the fact that the latter do not send money home.

Research using microdata is very scarce in this region; we rely on a specially designed survey (2MO) we conducted in 2007-2008 of 1,000 people who remit to the three Maghreb countries, to Turkey and to the countries of Sub-Saharan Africa. We also use a second survey conducted by the French Ministry of Social Affairs and Health (DREES) which includes a sample of 3,500 people from the regions we are interested in. DREES microdata set enables us to understand who is more likely to remit (extensive margin). 2MO microdata allows an analysis of remittance behavior amongst those who remit (intensive margin) including sum and reported final use of remittances (housing, investment, current expenditures). Using these two microdatasets, we examine the likelihood to remit across the different waves of immig...

Indeed, the emergence of an internationally used currency is slow and subject to inertial forces. Nonetheless, several fairly robust conclusions can be inferred from the results of the document. The most plausible medium- to long-term international scenario seems to be development of an asymmetrical duopoly between the euro and the dollar. In a context of scant international monetary cooperation, this scenario could lead to high volatility between the two main international currencies, which will be a powerful destabilising factor for third countries. In terms of official international reserves, the growing financial use of the single European currency and the development of Euroland capital markets should lead to greater diversification in favour of the euro in the medium and long term. Together with o...

Research paper thumbnail of Measurement and anticipation of territorial vulnerability to offshoring risks : An analysis on sectoral data for France

Economie et Statistique / Economics and Statistics, Feb 7, 2018

The rise of new technologies and globalization has recently generated major structural changes in... more The rise of new technologies and globalization has recently generated major structural changes in developed economies. These changes alter significantly economic activities and affect spatial disparities. The articles by Charnoz and Orand and by Jennequin, Miotti and Mouhoud offer two original analyses of changing patterns in local labour markets in France. They show that structural changes affect employment zones differently depending on their employment structure and their international exposure. Because of their specialisations in high value-added jobs, major cities emerge the winners from these changing patterns. The rural territories and cities traditionally specialised in routine jobs have, meanwhile, turned to computers and robotisation and are thus experiencing a decline in these jobs. This phenomenon is magnified by offshoring. These papers have important implications for economic policies, as they identify the infranational territories that may have large effects on employment and wages trends at the national level.

Ce résultat est cohérent avec les études d’impact précédentes du CIR qui indiquent un effet d’addition du CIR sur les dépenses de R&D des entreprises, et donc un impact positif sur l’embauche de chercheurs (MENESR 2014). La baisse du coût des chercheurs que représente le CIR stimule les activités de R&D et le recrutement de chercheurs. Ce résultat est aussi cohérent avec l’augmentation sensible du nombre de chercheurs en entreprises en France, malgré la désindustrialisation et les impacts de la crise économique de 2008. L’augmentation de l’embauche de chercheurs par les entreprises a notamment bénéficié aux jeunes diplômés.
