The purpose of this paper is to analyse, in the case of Portugal, the effectiveness of a wage reduction - a current proposal since 2011 to help the country to reverse the high public and external debts - in promoting the efficiency and the international competitiveness of the economy. A static multi-sectoral and single-country general equilibrium model will be used with data from GTAP7 Data Base. The model allo...

The purpose of this paper is to identify the type of labour and the sectors where labour productivity should be improved to elevate the international competitiveness of Portugal. A static multi-sectoral general equilibrium model, with multinational and single-country versions, is used. This model permits the identification of sectors that are leaders in competitiveness improvement. In some countries, traditiona...
Portugal is a not a homogenous territory even though it is a small country. Each region has different characteristics, which makes the country as an evident case for the need of an effective cohesion policy leading to a diminishment of regional disparities. This paper presents a preliminary version of the input-output table for Alentejo, a Portuguese region through the ...

A presente comunicação apresenta uma primeira aproximação do primeiro quadrante da matriz input-output para a região Alentejo (MIO Alentejo), obtida por via da regionalização daquele quadrante no quadro empregos-recursos (para o ano de 2008). Como é sabido, o modelo input-output presta-se, particularmente, à análise dos efeitos da procura sobre a oferta (eventualmente, em termos territoriais/regionais). Assim,...
With this paper we present a preliminary version of the input-output table for Alentejo, a Portuguese region through the regionalization of the input-output national table, for the year 2008. As it is well known the input-output (IO) model is particularly appropriate for the analysis of the effects of demand on supply (possibly in territorial/regional terms). As such, from the descriptive point of view, the IO ...
