La participation du droit de la concurrence de l’Union européenne à l’édification d’un modèle de compétitivité industrielle / The contribution of EU competition law to the establishment of a competitive industrial modelCoskun, Alexis 07 December 2018 (has links)
Régulièrement le droit de la concurrence est perçu comme constituant un frein, un obstacle à toute velléité de mener une politique industrielle. Droit de la concurrence et politique industrielle sont souvent présentés comme étant, par nature ; opposés. Ce travail de doctorat tend à préciser la manière avec laquelle le droit de la concurrence participe de la formation d’un modèle d’industrie compétitive au niveau européen. Il s’agit de dépasser les définitions figées de la politique industrielle renvoyant exclusivement à l’implication étatique et de montrer comment et par quelles applications pratiques le droit de la concurrence permet d’atteindre cet objectif téléologique de compétitivité. Cette vision doit déboucher sur l’identification et l’analyse des deux axes majeurs au travers desquels le droit de la concurrence participe de la démarche dynamique de construction d’un modèle compétitif industriel : son influence sur les contenus et formes des interventions étatiques et son influence sur le comportement et les stratégies des entreprises manufacturières. Pour réaliser une telle ambition un large travail d’analyse des décisions de la Commission et de la jurisprudence de la Cour a dès lors été entrepris. / On a regular basis competition law is seen as an obstacle or a brake to any willingness of pursuing a project of industrial policy. Competition law and industrial policy are often presented as, by their sole nature, opposed. My PHD work tends to precise the way in which competition law participates to the establishment of competitive industrial model at the European scale. It outweighs the congealed definitions of industrial policies exclusively understanding it as deriving from state intervention. It aims at showing how and by which practical ways competition law makes possible to reach the teleological aim of competitiveness.This perspective leads to the identification and the analysis of the two major axis through which competition law participates to the teleological construction of a competitive industrial model : its influence upon the contents and the forms of state intervention and its impact on the actions and strategies of the manufacturing firms. To realize such a project a deep and large analysis of the Commission’s decisions and of the case-law of the Court has been undertaken.

The Relation between Corporate Economic and Corporate Environmental PerformanceArndt, Stephanie, Gaitzsch, Gunnar, Gnauck, Carsten, Höhne, Christoph, Hüske, Anne-Karen, Kretzschmar, Thomas, Lange , Ulrike, Lehmann, Katrin, Süss, André 28 December 2011 (has links) (PDF)
For almost 40 years researchers have been trying to identify the relationship between corporate environmental and corporate economic performance. Neither theoretical debate nor empirical studies investigating the relationship show conclusive results. Within a field research seminar at Technische Universität Dresden, nine students conducted a meta-analysis of 124 studies to assess different aspects of the relationship between corporate economic and corporate environmental performance. In the first part of our paper, we analyze and present the theoretical background based on a review of literature. In the second part, we test for empirical evidence. At first, the conceptual frameworks and measurement methods for corporate economic and corporate environmental performance are discussed. We also look at the impact of environmental performance on shareholder value. Thereafter, we examine the influence of time, industries and publication bias. In conclusion, our research indicates that the quality of journals merits further examination to improve results.

Previous issue date: 2010-06-22 / lnefficiency in Brazili~~ courts has long been discussed witliin academic and business circles. Most of the discussion, however, is based on personal "feelings", common sense, and anecdotal evidence. Almost no empirical or quantitative research has ever been carried out in the nationalliterature. This dissertation offers a qualitative and quantitative analysis. of the Brazilian Judiciary, using the perspectives ofthe Economic Analysis ofLaw (or Law and Economics). First, it discusses how institutions, in géneral, and legal institutions, in particular, became subjects of interest for economists. This has to do with the development of Institutional Economics, and more precisely, New lnstitutional Economics in the 1960s. Since then, pieces of empirical research in the field abound, highlighting the importance of the quality of (legal) institutions over the economy. Economic Analysis ofLaw was developed within this contexto The dissertation then, offers a descriptive analysis ofthe current (critical) situation of the Brazilian Judiciary. We present the most "traditional" explanations for inefficiency in courts, mainly the lack of resources, and the bad quality of the procedurallaw. Then, we offer altemative explanations, which question the emphasis placed on the amount of resources and, instead, focus on the quality of court management as one ofthe maio sources of (in)efficiency. Then, we apply Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to quantitatively and empirically measure relative efficiency of the Brazilian State Courts. Results show that it varies substantially across the different states and cannot be explained mainly by the amount of resources that each one has available. Finally, we test one of the most acknowledged hypotheses of the Brazilian Law and Economics literature: that judges tend to favor debtors in contractual relations, i.e., that they have a pro-debtor bias when making judicial decisions. Based on a set of 1,687 decisions ofthe STJ (Superior Tribunal de Justiça) we find that such a pro-debtor bias does not seem to exist in a consistent manner among Brazilian judges, at least not among the STJ Justices. Yet, judicial decisions do seem to be inconsistent over time, what mar cause a high degree of uncertainty. 'i This dissertation tries to offer a contribution in making economic analysis of the Brazilian Judiciary more empirical, and less based on feelings, anecdotes or common sense. / A ineficiência nas cortes brasileiras tem sido objeto de debates nos círculos acadêmicos e empresariais desde há muito tempo. Entretanto, grande parte das discussões tem sido baseada em 'achismos', senso comum e evidências anedóticas. Pouca ou nenhuma pesquisa empírica tem sido desenvolvida na literatura nacional. Esta tese oferece uma análise qualitativa e quantitativa do Judiciário brasileiro, usando a perspectiva da Análise Econômica do Direito (ou Law and Economics). Primeiro, discutimos como as instituições, de maneira geral, e as instituições legais, de maneira específica tornaram-se objetos de interesse dos economistas. Isso relaciona-se com o surgimento da Economia Institucional, e mais precisamente, da Nova Economia Institucional nos anos 1960s. Desde então, muitos trabalhos empíricos na área têm surgido, enfatizando a importância da qualidade das instituições (legais) na economia. A Análise Econômica do Direito desenvolveu-se dentro deste contexto. Oferecemos então uma análise descritiva da atual situação (crítica) do Judiciário brasileiro. Apresentamos as explicações 'tradicionais' para a ineficiência, mais comumente a falta de recursos e a má qualidade do direito processual. No entanto, oferecemos explicações alternativas, que questionam a ênfase normalmente dada à quantidade de recursos e, ao invés disso, focam na qualidade da gestão das cortes como a principal fonte de (in) eficiência. Depois, empregaremos a Análise Envoltória de Dados (DEA) para medir empiricamente a eficiência relativa dos Tribunais Estaduais brasileiros. Os resultados indicam que ela varia significativamente entre os estados e pode não ser unicamente explicada pela falta de recursos disponíveis para cada corte. Finalmente, testamos uma das mais conhecidas hipóteses da literatura brasileira da Análise Econômica do Direito: que os juízes tendem a favorecer os devedores contratuais, ou seja, que eles têm um viés pró-devedor em seus julgamentos. Baseados em 1.687 decisões do Superior Tribunal de Justiça mostramos que tal viés não existe de forma consistente entre os juízes brasileiros, pelo menos não entre os Ministros do STJ. Entretanto, as decisões parecem ser inconsistentes ao longo do tempo, algo que pode gerar alto grau de incerteza. Desejamos com esta tese fazer uma contribuição tornando a análise econômica do Judiciário mais empírica, menos baseada em 'achismos', anedotas ou no senso comum.

Empirical evidence on pricing of contingent convertibles / Empirical evidence on pricing of contingent convertiblesRýgr, Petr January 2018 (has links)
The aim of this thesis is to shed more light into practical challenges related to pricing of contingent convertibles by empirically evaluating validity of two most crucial modelling assumptions of contingent convertible pricing framework. First assumption is that contractually specified capital ratio can be proxied by stock price level. Second modelling assumption is that volatility smile characteristic for stock market can be also incorporated into the contingent pricing model. First assumption is tested by comparison of probability of conversion implied by balance sheet figures with probability implied by market spreads. Analysis of our dataset indicates that probability implied by figures reported on balance sheet of issuer is statistically higher than probability estimated by market participants, suggesting that there is a confidence that reported figures do not fully represent the capital position of issuer and its ability to raise additional capital and revert the potential conversion. New information available on balance sheet also does not tend to immediately and fully materialize in contingent convertibles market. Secondly, incorporation of volatility smile characteristic for stock market leads to very low and unstable trigger level compared to level implied by balance sheet. Finally,...

Assessing the economic impact of free trade agreement on Indonesia / Évaluer l’Impact Économique de l’Accord de Libre-Échange sur l’IndonésieSofjan, Muhammad 08 September 2016 (has links)
L’Indonésie est un pays en développement qui adopte une économie ouverteoù le maintien de relations commerciales avec les autres pays est significatif. Il y a un niveauélevé de trafic économique international avec un impact substantiel sur l’économie et sur ledéveloppement national. Durant son développement, la collaboration avec d’autre pays a étégénéralisée. Cette thèse examine l’impact économique des accords de libre-échange et dela libéralisation des échanges tentés en Indonésie. Le but est d’adresser les problèmessuivants : examiner l’effet de la libéralisation des échanges sur le volume des exportations etdes importations, le revenu de l’état dans les aspects des échanges internationaux, tel queles droits d’importation, et fournir un examen approfondi du lien entre la libéralisation deséchanges, la pauvreté et l’inégalité en Indonésie. Une analyse empirique est menée enajoutant les facteurs de libéralisation aux fonctions de demande d’exportation etd’importation pour déterminer l’impact de la libéralisation sur les activités d’exportation etd’importation en Indonésie. Les résultats indiquent que, pour l’Indonésie, les politiques delibéralisation des échanges qui sont mesurées par les droits d’exportation et les droitsd’importation ont un impact négatif sur les exportations et les importations. Afin de faire faceaux problèmes fiscaux, on peut conclure que les politiques de libéralisation des échangesd’augmenter le volume des importations. Les conditions de pauvreté et l’inégalité d’un payspeuvent être influencées par l’ouverture de son économie. Les résultats révèlent que lalibéralisation des échanges a un impact négatif direct sur la pauvreté où la libéralisation deséchanges peut réduire le niveau de pauvreté. / Indonesia is a developing country that has adopted an open economy wheretrade relations with other countries is significant. Indeed, there is a high level of internationaleconomy traffic that has substantially impacted the economy and national development.Throughout the nation’s development, cooperation and involvement with other countries hasbeen widespread. This thesis investigates the economic impact of free trade agreements andthe trade liberalization attempted in Indonesia in order to: examine the effect of tradeliberalization on the volume of exports and imports; analyse state revenue regarding aspectsof international trade, such as import duty; and provide a detailed investigation of therelationship between trade liberalization, poverty and inequality in Indonesia. An empiricalanalysis is conducted by adding liberalization factors to the import and export demandfunctions to determine the impact of liberalization on export and import activities in Indonesia.The results indicate that, for this nation, trade liberalization policies measured through exporttaxes and import duties negatively impact exports and imports. To deal with fiscal issues, itcan be concluded that the policies of trade liberalization are still able to increase importvolume. Conditions of poverty and inequality in a country can also be influenced by theopenness of its economy. The results reveal that trade liberalization negatively impactspoverty and may reduce poverty levels in Indonesia.

Evaluation of Analytical Approximation Methods for the Macroscopic Fundamental DiagramTilg, Gabriel, Mühl, Susan Amini, Busch, Fritz 02 May 2022 (has links)
The Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram (MFD) describes the relation of average network flow, density and
speed in urban networks. It can be estimated based on empirical or simulation data, or approximated
analytically. Two main analytical approximation methods to derive the MFD for arterial roads and urban
networks exist at the moment. These are the method of cuts (MoC) and related approaches, as well as
the stochastic approximation (SA). This paper systematically evaluates these methods including their most
recent advancements for the case of an urban arterial MFD. Both approaches are evaluated based on a
traffic data set for a segment of an arterial in the city of Munich, Germany. This data set includes loop
detector and signal data for a typical working day. It is found that the deterministic MoC finds a more
accurate upper bound for the MFD for the studied case. The estimation error of the stochastic method is
about three times higher than the one of the deterministic method. However, the SA outperforms the MoC
in approximating the free-flow branch of the MFD. The analysis of the discrepancies between the empirical
and the analytical MFDs includes an investigation of the measurement bias and an in-depth sensitivity
study of signal control and public transport operation related input parameters. This study is conducted
as a Monte-Carlo-Simulation based on a Latin Hypercube sampling. Interestingly, it is found that applying
the MoC for a high number of feasible green-to-cycle ratios predicts the empirical MFD well. Overall, it is
concluded that the availability of signal data can improve the analytical approximation of the MFD even
for a highly inhomogeneous arterial.

The role of technical education in community upliftment in Zimbabwe : a historical perspective and avulationMakotose, Armitage Beverley 06 1900 (has links)
In this dissertation, research was undertaken to trace the development of technical, . education
in Zimbabwe and evaluate its role in community upliftment.
The colonial era ( 1890-1979) and the post-colonial era ( 1980-2000) were examined in this
connection. This involved, inter alia, analysing findings and recommendations of
commissions of inquiry, and provisions of national development plans. Empirical analysis of
the status and role of technical education in community upliftment was also undertaken.
Finally, on the basis of the historical data, findings and conclusions regarding the history of
technical education, as well as its role in community upliftment in Zimbabwe were made. As
a way forward, some recommendations were made which would, if implemented, enhance the
role of technical education in the individual's attainment of meaningful adulthood and
improvement of society's quality of life. / Educational Studies / M. Ed. (History of Education)
