| Resumen: |
We analyze the spatio-temporal dynamics of a simple model of macroeconomic geography in which demography and pollution dynamics mutually affect each other. Pollution, by reducing the carrying capacity of the natural environment - which determines the maximum amount of people a given location can effectively bear - crucially affects labor force dynamics which in turn alter the amount of resources available for abatement activities aiming to reduce pollution. Such mutual links determine the eventual sustainability of the development process in different locations and economies, and spatial interactions further complicate the picture. We show that neglecting the existence of mutual feedback between population and pollution leads to misleading conclusions about the eventual sustainability of a specific location. We also show that even neglecting the existence of spatial externalities can lead to misleading conclusions about the sustainability of different regions in the spatial economy. This suggests thus that both the nature of the population and pollution relationship and geographical factors may play a critical role in the process of sustainable development. |

La riqueza regalada a la gran minería del cobre en Chile: nuevas estimaciones, 2005-2014 |

| Resumen: |
En este trabajo se estiman las rentas económicas de los diez yacimientos que constituyen la gran minería privada del cobre en Chile. La metodología utilizada asegura un cálculo conservador e incluye dos correcciones ignoradas en la literatura: el resarcimiento de los gastos en exploración y la indispensable compensación por la volatilidad del precio del cobre. Las estimaciones muestran que la riqueza regalada a estas empresas alcanza un valor piso de 114.000 millones de dólares entre 2005 y 2014. Estas rentas son neutras en relación con las decisiones de inversión y producción, es decir, si estas empresas privadas hubiesen pagado al fisco chileno el monto calculado, su inversión y producción totales no habrían cambiado, pero el país habría podido disponer de esos cuantiosos recursos. Además, en ausencia de cualquier otra distorsión, estas empresas igualmente habrían tenido rentabilidades equivalentes a las que hubiesen logrado en una economía de competencia perfecta. |

| Resumen: |
Economists have neglected a key issue for understanding and increasing technological change, in failing to study how talented individuals produce innovations. This paper takes a quantitative approach to this problem. Regression analysis of auction data from 1965-2015 reveals that the age-price profiles of Jackson Pollock and Andy Warhol - the two greatest painters born in the 20th century - closely resemble the profiles of the two artists’ careers derived both from textbooks of art history and from retrospective exhibitions. The agreement of these sources confirms that the auction market assigns the highest prices to the art that scholars judge to be the most important, and examination of the artists’ careers reveals that this art is the most important because it is the most innovative. These results lend strong support to our understanding of creativity at the individual level, with a sharp contrast between the extended experimental innovation of Pollock and the sudden conceptual innovation of Warhol. |

Adaptation to climate change and economic growth in developing countries |

| Resumen: |
Developing countries are vulnerable to the adverse effects of climate change, yet there is disagreement about what they should do to protect themselves from anticipated damages. In particular, it is unclear what the optimal balance is between investments in traditional productive capital (which increases output but is vulnerable to climate change), and investments in adaptive capital (which is unproductive in the absence of climate change but ’climate-proofs’ vulnerable capital). We develop a model of investment in adaptive and productive capital stocks, and show that while it is unlikely that the optimal strategy involves no adaptation, the scale and composition of optimal investments depends on empirical context. Application of our model to sub-Saharan Africa suggests, however, that in most contingencies it will be optimal to grow the adaptive sector more rapidly than the vulnerable sector over the coming decades, although it never exceeds 1 per cent of the economy. Our sensitivity analysis goes well beyond the existing literature in evaluating the robustness of this finding. |

How relevant is the origin of human capital for immigrant wages? Evidence from Spain |

| Resumen: |
The objective of this article is to analyse the role played by the different components of human capital in the wage determination of immigrants in the Spanish labour market. Using microdata from the Encuesta Nacional de Inmigrantes, we find that human capital of immigrants acquired in Spain presents higher returns than human capital obtained in home countries, reflecting the limited international transferability of the latter. This result is reinforced by the strong heterogeneity observed in wage returns to different kinds of human capital across immigrants from different origins and, in particular, by the fact that immigrants with the higher returns to human capital acquired in their home countries are those coming from other developed countries and Latin America, the two regions more similar to Spain in terms of development and/or culture. |
