Political Price Cycles in Regulated Industries
This paper develops a model of political regulation in which politicians set the regulated price in order to maximize electoral support by signaling to voters a pro-consumer behavior. Political incentives and welfare constraints interact in the model, yielding an equilibrium in which the real price in a regulated industry may fall in periods immediately preceding an election. The paper also provides empirical support for the theoretical model. Using quarterly data from 32 industrial and developing countries over 1978-2004, we find strong statistical and econometric evidence pointing toward the existence of electoral price cycles in gasoline markets

Pax English - A Nossa Tribo
Todos nós imaginamos uma tribo como tendo uma base racial, étnica, nacional ou política, mas em África tribo é a língua que falamos. Existem 7102 línguas no mundo. 7102 tribos.Um terço delas pode desaparecer nas próximas décadas: isso seria bom ou mau para a humanidade? As línguas são o pilar da diversidade cultural, e a diversidade cultural é a base de todos os conflitos. As línguas dividem as tribos. Será que as línguas também podem unir as tribos? Em caso afirmativo, estaríamos a fundir-nos numa tribo global? Estaríamos a construir uma paz em inglês? Uma Pax English? Pax English é um livro sobre a forma como as línguas moldaram países, regiões e conflitos. E como podem voltar a fazê-lo no futuro.
