Deshumanizando al varón
Privilegiado, violento, opresor… cuando se juzga la figura masculina desde una perspectiva de género el veredicto es inequívoco: los hombres dominan la política, los negocios, las instituciones religiosas, numerosos ámbitos científicos y culturales, además de estar sobrerrepresentados como victimarios en las estadísticas de crimen violento y sexual. Sin embargo los varones también protagonizan la mayor parte de los suicidios, muertes laborales y víctimas de homicidio. Encabezan el fracaso escolar, son mayoría entre los sin techo y constituyen el grueso de las víctimas civiles y militares en conflictos armados. Desde una perspectiva de género, la discriminación legal masculina ...
State-Dependent Exchange Rate Pass-Through
We estimate how the rate of pass-through from the exchange rate to domestic prices varies across states of the economy and depending on the shocks that drive fluctuations in the exchange rate. We confirm several results from the literature and uncover new facts. Drawing on the experience of a large sample of advanced and emerging market economies over the past 30 years, we document that exchange rate pass-through significantly larger during periods of high inflation and elevated uncertainty. Using a novel identification strategy, we also show that pass-through is higher when exchange rate fluctuations are driven by U.S. monetary policy.

Shipping Costs and Inflation
The Covid-19 pandemic has disrupted global supply chains, leading to shipment delays and soaring shipping costs. We study the impact of shocks to global shipping costs—measured by the Baltic Dry Index (BDI)—on domestic prices for a large panel of countries during the period 1992-2021. We find that spikes in the BDI are followed by sizable and statistically significant increases in import prices, PPI, headline, and core inflation, as well as inflation expectations. The impact is similar in magnitude but more persistent than for shocks to global oil and food prices. The effects are more muted in countries where imports make up a smaller share of domestic consumption, and those with inflation targeting regimes and better anchored inflation expectations. The results are robust to several checks, including an instrumental variables approach in which we instrument changes in shipping costs with an indicator of closures of the Suez Canal.

Advent - The Caravan After The Venture
After narrowly escaping death aboard the venture, twins Edward and Elizabeth are eager to leave their woes behind. Unfortunately for them, their troubles aren’t so easy to solve. The rabbit hole goes deeper than they could have ever expected, and it seems that they might be in for another fight. How much are they willing to suffer? How much are they willing to lose? Who are they willing to sacrifice?
The Effects of COVID-19 Vaccines on Economic Activity
This paper empirically examines the economic effects of COVID-19 vaccine rollouts using a cross-country daily database of vaccinations and high frequency indicators of economic activity—nitrogen dioxide (NO2) emissions, carbon monoxide (CO) emissions, and Google mobility indices—for a sample of 46 countries over the period December 16, 2020 to June 20, 2021. Using surprises in vaccines administered, we find that an unexpected increase in vaccination per capita is associated with a significant increase in economic activity. We also find evidence for non-linear effects of vaccines, with the marginal economic benefits being larger when vaccination rates are higher. Country-specific conditions play an important role, with lower economic gains if strict containment measures are in place or if the country is experiencing a severe outbreak. Finally, the results provide evidence of spillovers across borders, highlighting the importance of equitable access to vaccines across nations.
