Resumen: Las fluctuaciones de la actividad económica repercuten más levemente en las tasas de desempleo de los países latinoamericanos que en las de otras economías más avanzadas. En lugar de adoptar políticas de estímulo centradas en reducir el desempleo en general, esos países necesitan políticas focalizadas mediante programas que fomenten la creación de empleo en sectores específicos. Se observan diferencias en la relación desempleo‐producto entre países latinoamericanos. Allí donde la relación es débil o nula, las variaciones cíclicas afectan adversamente a la calidad del empleo, un aspecto del que la política económica también debe ocuparse. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Resumen: Los autores examinan los vínculos entre mejora económica y social en un país en desarrollo con una estricta legislación laboral y una política industrial ambiciosa, atendiendo a las estrategias de las empresas locales que participan en las redes mundiales de producción. A partir del análisis casuístico de cinco empresas textiles y de la confección de Etiopía realizado en 2015, observan que la seguridad del empleo y el bienestar físico no son resultado de las políticas de los compradores mundiales, sino de la legislación laboral negociada por empleadores, trabajadores y sindicatos, y concluyen que la mejora y el empeoramiento social pueden producirse simultáneamente en una misma empresa.
