  • Transport Infrastructure Improvements and Spatial Sorting: Evidence from Buenos Aires∗ [Click Here for the Latest Version]
    Transport Infrastructure Improvements and Spatial Sorting: Evidence from Buenos Aires∗ [Click here for the latest version] Pablo Ernesto Warnes† November 12, 2020 Abstract How do improvements in the urban transport infrastructure affect the spatial sort- ing of residents with different levels of income and education within a city? What are the welfare effects of improving urban transit once we take into account these pat- terns of spatial sorting? In this paper, I study the effects of the construction of a bus rapid transit system (BRT) on the spatial reorganization of residents within the city of Buenos Aires, Argentina. To do so, I leverage an individual level panel data set of more than two million residents with which I can describe intra-city migration patterns. I first find reduced form evidence that the construction of the BRT increased the spatial segregation between high and low-skilled residents within the city. I then develop a dynamic quantitative spatial equilibrium model of a city with heterogeneous workers that allows me to quantify the welfare effects of this BRT system while taking into ac- count these spatial sorting patterns. With this quantitative framework, I can measure the average welfare gains for residents that were living near the BRT lines before these were built. I find that welfare gains were very similar between high- and low-skilled workers living in the same locations, but very different within skill levels across lo- cations. Residents living near a BRT line in neighborhoods with the lowest share of high-skilled residents saw welfare gains close to 1% on average, while residents liv- ing near a BRT line in neighborhoods with the highest high-skilled share saw welfare gains around 0.5% on average.

Some of the key sceneries of her life are here visited as well as the place where her corpse was mummified and the museum opened to commemorate her legacy. This tour is not politically based and aims to recreate the life of Evita, a world-known character of our history. POPE FRANCIS TOUR This tour recreates the life of Pope Francis and all his work.

  • Useful Information About Buenos Aires CLADEA 2014 Buenos Aires 1
    Useful information about Buenos Aires CLADEA 2014 Buenos Aires 1. Tips for money exchange Due to economy policies we have had these few last years, foreign exchange has two markets: the official one and the so-called “blue” (not legal but which most people use). As tourists you can access the official market in banks and foreign exchange offices. We strongly recommend that you stick to it and not try buying in the blue market. While walking along downtown streets you will be offered money exchange by people standing in the corners. These are what we call “arbolitos” (small trees). Their rate is usually very good but making a transaction with them is quite risky. Where to get reliable Exchange information • www.bna.com.ar – página oficial. • www.afip.gob.ar – página oficial. • www.ambito.com -- página no oficial. • www.lanacion.com.ar/dolar-hoy – página no oficial. Some other useful tips on money • Tax Free Shopping – Foreign tourists can get the IVA tax (VAT) refunded when buying domestic goods as from $70. To get this percentage discounted, you should ask to be given a “B” ticket at stores and the “Refunding Check” stating the amount to be refunded. Any imported good you may buy should be in a different ticket. Before departure you should show the acquired goods, the ticket and check to be stamped at customs. The amount to be refunded is the 21% of the full price, which corresponds to the IVA. • Please note: Some restaurants, hotels, shopping malls, may prefer to receive dollars so they can give you a better exchange rate.

IRAM’s commitment to standardization started in the mid 30s, in the last century, during the aftermath of the economic crash of 1929, when all countries were suffering from the sequels of the first global crisis of the XXth century. Already in those times, those who founded IRAM considered standardization as the basis for the development of an industrialized country, which could become a successful competitor worldwide. they consequently propagated this idea throughout Latin America, fueling the creation of national standards bodies. History allows us to state that local populations are the result of the merger of José Francisco López immigration waves from the most diverse origins, with a lot of the temperance and determination of our ancestors. This leads us, Argentineans, into striving to join the countries of the world. We know that an active involvement in international fora is an effective means for achieving this objective. Despite the fact that we have experienced and are still facing the difficulties inherent to a country that is part of a developing region, those difficulties have never stifled Argentina’s wish to make progress and become part of the world.
