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...
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 ...
The purpose of this paper is to analyse the effectiveness of the wage reduction in promoting efficiency and the international competitiveness of the Portuguese economy. A static multi-sectoral and single-country general equilibrium model will be used for the Portuguese case using the data from GTAP7 Data Base. The model allows measuring the changes by sectors. The simulations performed show that the reduction o...
A «competitividade externa» de uma economia é uma questão fundamental na definição das políticas económicas que promovam o desenvolvimento sustentado e a melhoria do nível de bem-estar das populações. Contudo, a falta de um enquadramento teórico, na definição clara do conceito e na delimitação do seu âmbito de aplicação, levanta alguma ambiguidade em torno desta matéria. O objectivo desta dissertação é definir ...
