National Conference of State Legislatures v vi Promoting Economic Development in Vulnerable Communities ABOUT THE STRENGTHENING FAMILIES AND NEIGHBORHOODS PROJECT State legislatures face real challenges and opportunities in enacting, funding and imple- menting state policies that strengthen vulnerable families and their neighborhoods. The National Conference of State Legislatures/Annie E. Casey Foundation Partnership is an initiative designed to raise legislators’ awareness of 1) the needs of vulnerable families and neighborhoods, 2) the policy tools available to legislators to strengthen those families and improve conditions in such neighborhoods, and 3) proven methods that allow legislators to focus on outcomes that affect families and neighborhoods, regardless of the committees on which legislators serve. More information about the partnership is available at www.ncsl.org/programs/sfn/sfn.htm. The 17-member NCSL/Casey Partnership Advisory Committee includes state legislators, a former legislator and legislative staff. The advisory committee helps NCSL formulate is- sues, set goals and explore existing state programs related to the project. The advisory committee members are: Senator Ray Aguilar, Nebraska Representative Evelyn Lynn, Florida Representative Mary Lou Dickerson, Senator Angela Monson, Oklahoma Washington Representative Nan Grogan Orrock, Representative Dwight Evans, Georgia Pennsylvania Hubert Price Jr., Michigan Representative Ro Foege, Iowa Phil Price, Arkansas Senator Beverly Gard, Indiana Senator Stephen Saland, New York Jack Hailey, California Representative Marie St. Fleur, Representative Doug Hart, Michigan Massachusetts John Kasprak, Connecticut Senator David Steele, Utah Bob Keaton, Louisiana The Casey Foundation web site—www.aecf.org/—features additional information about helping families and neighborhoods. vi National Conference of State Legislatures Legislative Resources vii PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The National Conference of State Legislatures thanks the Annie E.

This study describes problems regarding humankind’s future and defi nes the primary trends in the development of certain countries and humankind as a whole. Modern scientists seek to analyze economic and social situations; they make projections, develop models of social development and form concepts related to modern society. During the past century, two socio- economic systems existed, capitalism and socialism; modern society includes traits from both of these systems.

Using a critical feminist lens, this article challenges that conclusion by interrogating the storytelling practices deployed by “randomista” economists through a critical reading of a widely cited essay by Esther Duflo, one of the 2019 Nobel recipients, on the relationship between women’s empowerment and economic development. The paper argues that the limitations of randomista economics have given rise to a particular way of thinking characterized by piecemeal analysis, ad hoc resort to theory, indifference to history and context, and methodological fundamentalism.

  • Three Dimensions of Classical Utilitarian Economic Thought ––Bentham, J.S
    July 2012 Three Dimensions of Classical Utilitarian Economic Thought ––Bentham, J.S. Mill, and Sidgwick–– Daisuke Nakai∗ 1. Utilitarianism in the History of Economic Ideas Utilitarianism is a many-sided conception, in which we can discern various aspects: hedonistic, consequentialistic, aggregation or maximization-oriented, and so forth.1 While we see its impact in several academic fields, such as ethics, economics, and political philosophy, it is often dragged out as a problematic or negative idea. Aside from its essential and imperative nature, one reason might be in the fact that utilitarianism has been only vaguely understood, and has been given different roles, “on the one hand as a theory of personal morality, and on the other as a theory of public choice, or of the criteria applicable to public policy” (Sen and Williams 1982, 1-2). In this context, if we turn our eyes on economics, we can find intimate but subtle connections with utilitarian ideas. In 1938, Samuelson described the formulation of utility analysis in economic theory since Jevons, Menger, and Walras, and the controversies following upon it, as follows: First, there has been a steady tendency toward the removal of moral, utilitarian, welfare connotations from the concept. Secondly, there has been a progressive movement toward the rejection of hedonistic, introspective, psychological elements. These tendencies are evidenced by the names suggested to replace utility and satisfaction––ophélimité, desirability, wantability, etc. (Samuelson 1938) Thus, Samuelson felt the need of “squeezing out of the utility analysis its empirical implications”. In any case, it is somewhat unusual for economists to regard themselves as utilitarians, even if their theories are relying on utility analysis.

  • ECON 8764-001 History of Economic Development
    History of Economic Development Economics 8764-001 Fall 2012 Tuesday & Thursday 12:30-1:45 pm, Econ 5. Professor Carol H. Shiue, email [email protected], Econ 206B, Tue & Thur 2-3 p.m. Course Outline Overview This course examines competing explanations for cross-country differences in long run economic growth, addressing the question, “why are some countries so rich and other so poor” from a historical and comparative standpoint. The core issues that we examine cover the Middle Ages to the 20th century and focus attention on Britain and Northwestern Europe because that is where economic growth first occurred. Knowledge of standard analytical tools and empirical techniques of macro and micro is strongly recommended. This course has several objectives: the first is to show how theoretical approaches and quantitative tools can be applied to historical evidence. The second objective is to introduce students to research and paper writing in economic history and other applied fields of economics. We will be reading and discussing articles to learn how a research article is put together. You will also have many opportunities in this class to pose your own questions and present your ideas. This is a skill that is of immense value as you start to enter into the dissertation-writing phase of your program and will be spending more of your time doing research in economics. With practice, you will also feel more comfortable and confident in seminars, whether the seminar is your own or someone else’s. Course Requirements Classes will consist of lecture and student presentation and discussion.

  • What Works in State Economic Development? by Timothy Bartik
    What Works in State Economic Development? by Timothy Bartik Senior Economist W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research o raise per capita earnings requires a dual focus on labor demand and labor supply. To improve labor demand, entrepreneurship training has the most T rigorous evidence of effectiveness. Incentives for large corporations work better if focused on up-front, in-kind supports. Small and medium-sized businesses benefit from assistance with planning, marketing, technology, and government Timothy Bartik regulations. To improve labor supply, job training programs like Career Academies are effective because they incorporate the needs of employers and connect trainees with job vacancies. To get the most “bang for the buck,” effective policies focus on people and businesses already in the state, particularly those in more malleable stages of their own development. For example, new start-ups or companies facing significant competition are often more responsive to policy interventions. Universal preschool provided early in life has, in the long run, over twice the projected annual impact on jobs of business subsidies. The economy is the preeminent issue in 2009. This is true both at the federal and state level. At the state level, economic policy discussions are dominated by debate over what is called “economic development policy.” Why is state economic development so important? How will we know if we are successful in our development efforts? We could give many definitions of what we mean by “economic development.” For example, state economic development has been defined as increases in the productivity with which all resources in the state are used.

  • Economic Growth and Unemployment: an Empirical Assessment of Okun’S Law in the Case of Liberia
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 23 June 2021 doi:10.20944/preprints202105.0759.v2 ECONOMIC GROWTH AND UNEMPLOYMENT: AN EMPIRICAL ASSESSMENT OF OKUN’S LAW IN THE CASE OF LIBERIA Kaiballah Conteh E-mail: [email protected] Tel: +905428809680 Department of Economics, Near East University East Boulevard, ZIP: 99138 Nicosia TRNC Mersin 10- Turkey Tel: + 90(392)2236464 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The purpose of this study is to examine the connection between economic growth and unemployment in Liberia between 2001 and 2019. The unit root test and the Augmented Dickey-Fuller (ADF) Co-integration test were used to examine the relationship between unemployment and GDP. The Auto Regressive Distribution Lag (ARDL) bounds test is used to determine if the variables are linked in the long run. According to the results of the ARDL model, there is no long-run relationship between unemployment and economic growth. This study' results have particularly important policy implications for Liberian economic authorities. In both the long and medium term, the observational results showed no meaningful relationship between unemployment and economic growth. The Liberian government should direct its spending toward activities that directly and indirectly promote the creation of employment and decent jobs, a conducive environment and flexible labor market policies or legislation that are not impediments to job creation, and finally, the government should prioritize labor intensive industries. Keywords: Okun's law, unemployment rate, Economic Growth, Liberia Introduction For many years, Liberia's unemployment rate has been reported at 85 percent, which is utterly impossible. In late 1991 or early 1992, this figure was suggested as the unemployment rate.

  • Economic Development: Overview
    CHAPTER 2 Economic Development: Overview By the problem of economic development I mean simply the problem of accounting for the observed pattern, across countries and across time, in levels and rates of growth of per capita income. This may seem too narrow a definition, and perhaps it is, but thinking about income patterns will necessarily involve us in thinking about many other aspects of societies too, so I would suggest that we withhold judgement on the scope of this definition until we have a clearer idea of where it leads us. —R. E. Lucas [1988] [W]e should never lose sight of the ultimate purpose of the exercise, to treat men and women as ends, to improve the human condition, to enlarge people’s choices. [A] unity of interests would exist if there were rigid links between economic production (as measured by income per head) and human development (reflected by human indicators such as life expectancy or literacy, or achievements such as self-respect, not easily measured). But these two sets of indicators are not very closely related. —P. P. Streeten [1994] 2.1 Introduction Economic development is the primary objective of the majority of the world’s nations. This truth is accepted without controversy, or so it would appear in public discourse at least. Raising the well-being and socioeconomic capabilities of peoples everywhere is easily the most crucial 18 Economic Development: Overview social task facing us today. Every year, aid is disbursed, investments are undertaken, policies are framed, and elaborate plans hatched to achieve this goal, or at least to get closer to it.

  • Feminist Economics and the New Development Paradigm
    B+1515 Feminist economics and the new development paradigm Women around the world work longer hours, participate less in labour markets than men, receive lower incomes and are more involved in unpaid work. Feminist economics demands a new development paradigm that is not based on +1515 economic growth and whose indicator is not the average GDP which conceals the half of the economy that is non- BB monetary. The classic model ignores essential activities that take place outside markets, such as maintaining a household, voluntary work, child rearing, caring for the elderly and a large part of food production and crop maintenance. The evolutive economist Hazel Henderson says quered. To cope with this new situation, society must Elsa Duhagon that human behaviour ranges from conflict and organise itself around a family model different from competition at one end of the scale to cooperation the traditional one of “man as provider” and “woman The economic and financial crisis has shown once and exchange at the other.
