El ethos de las víctimas de desplazamiento en la narrativa colombiana
La investigación El ethos de las víctimas de desplazamiento en la narrativa colombiana es una confirmación de la importancia de la creación de ficciones que permitan nombrar lo innombrable a propósito del reconocimiento de la experiencia de desplazamiento como un quiebre, una desgarradura colectiva que nos reclama como sociedad. “Somos una nación desplazada” y esa es la cara que nos devuelven las cinco obras narrativas estudiadas en esta investigación. El exilio interior y el desplazamiento como cautiverio; la errancia como representación de la crisis de identidad del sujeto; el cuerpo como lugar político y el destierro sin desplazamiento; la experiencia del desalojo como renunc...

Borrowing Costs and The Role of Multilateral Development Banks: Evidence from Cross-Border Syndicated Bank Lending
Cross-border bank lending is a growing source of external finance in developing countries and could play a key role for infrastructure financing. This paper looks at the role of multilateral development banks (MDBs) on the terms of syndicated loan deals, focusing on loan pricing. The results show that MDBs' participation is associated with higher borrowing costs and longer maturities---signaling a greater willingness to finance high risk projects which may not be financed by the private sector---but it is also associated with lower spreads for riskier borrowers. Overall, our findings suggest that MDBs could crowd in private investment in developing countries through risk mitigation.
