Through a quantile regression, it is shown that from 1990 to 2018 the impacts of business investments, dollar debt and the exchange rate are differentiated for the various levels of exchange earnings of a group of Mexican companies. The value of the dollar and foreign currency debt negatively impact earnings, and investments in property, plant and equipment, and net working capital have a greater influence on such earnings. The relationship between foreign exchange earnings and investments in recent, intangible assets and net working capital has not been previously studied. These results can be useful for investment planning as a means of managing the risk of foreign exchange losses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: The literature on fiscal theory and policy has shown evidence regarding the procyclical stance of public spending in relation to the economic cycle in developing countries, and particularly in the case of Latin American economies. This paper studies the relationship of budget spending and the economic cycle in Mexico for the 1980-2016 period, it seeks to clarify whether the shift in fiscal policy can be characterized as a tendency towards an anticyclical stance. Methodology: To analyze the quarterly seasonally adjusted series of budget expenditure and gdp (at constant 2008 prices), their cyclical components were estimated using the Hodrick-Prescott filter. To explain the cycle of expenditure through the product cycle, a regression was estimated with Markov regime changes in which the state probabilities vary according to the volatility of the product. Subsequently, the time-varying volatilities of both series were estimated as well as their dynamic conditional correlations and the latter were analyzed based on the economic cycle. Results: The evidence is consistent with an expenditure policy that has been both procyclical and counter-cyclical at different times of the period under study, as the previous literature has shown, but in recent years there has been a notable decrease in the emphasis of the procyclicality of the budget public expenditure, which even suggests that fiscal policy has become acyclical. Conclusions: Unless the policy makers act towards other direction, fiscal policy can be expected to remain acyclical and, therefore, budgetary spending will continue to have non significant impact on the management of the Mexican economy cycle.

This paper shows evidence about the compliance of the Wagner's Law at the level of the Mexican states during the period 1980-2007. This law sets that the growth of public spending is explained as a result of increased economic activity. To test compliance with the law, this study use the specification proposed by Peacock and Wiseman (1961), Musgrave (1969), and Goffman and Mahar (1971), which sets that public spending and output variables are related in their levels. The bulk of empirical research on the fulfillment of the law at the global level has been conducted investigating whether Wagner's Law is fulfilled in the country level, with few studies on its fulfillment at the level of states, provinces or regions into a country. By means of econometric methods of panel data analysis, the whole set of the states of the Mexican Republic is studied, so as three subgroups classified according to their GDP per capita. The results of the cointegration analysis suggest evidence in favor of compliance with the Wagner's Law in the study period and that compliance is a function of the level of development achieved by the states.

The text provides the reader with some theoretical reflections on human values in their relationship to self development from a culturalconstructivist perspective. We emphasize that the concept of self has theoretical aspects that need to be explored to advance alternative explanations about values. Our perspective emphasizes the dynamics of duality and inclusive separation of psychological processes taking place between subject and culture, as well as the role of semiotic systems in the emergence, organization, and development of values. We will address the development of self, here conceived as dialogical self, as well as how constructive and non-constructive values can enable us to better understand the emergence and role of emotions in human development. Finally, the analysis of certain biographical aspects of a former Colombian guerrilla illustrates and highlights the main concepts discussed throughout the text. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A 29 years-old female, with history of twonormal vaginal deliveries, came to the hospital with a pelvic presentation and almost a complete cervical dilatation. A pelvic delivery was planned. The legs, pelvis, thorax and arms were delivered without problems bur the head was retained The Mauriceau-Smellie-Veit maneuver was failed and two Piper forceps applications intented without success. A symphisiotomy was performed under local anesthesia. A female baby was delivered with Apgar-score 0-2-4.The mother had an uterine, vaginal, vesical and urethral injury. The pubic injury was treated with an osteosinthesis by the orthopedic department. The baby was a term female, with 3020 goof weight and 40 weeks Capurro. She had also abraquial plexus injury, anoxic encephalopathy, and anemia, Mother and baby were discharged seven weeks after delivery. Five years later, both are totally recovered, without any sequel. The baby has a physical and intellectual development according to her age. There was a medical and ethic problem in applying an emergency surgical intervention without experience, but in this case was life-saving for the baby. Symphisiotomy is a surgical intervention, which should be learned during the residency. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) or Shanghai Ranking is a de facto standard to determine the position of universities worldwide. Improving ranking positions has become the goal of universities and governments. No wonder therefore that the aggregation of universities in Spain is nowadays suggested as a means to raise the international profile of our university system. In this context, the goal of this study was to test two potential groupings, universities belonging to the same Autonomous Community and campuses of international excellence (CEIs), to determine the ARWU placement that would result. To compute the ARWU indicators of these possible groupings, we used the methodology developed in Docampo (2012b). The results of our analysis clearly show the difficulty of improving ranking positions by calculating the sum of aggregated institutions. As a matter of fact, the only way to place a university cluster from Spain in the top 100 would be to treat all of the Catalan universities as a single institution. The next best ranking for Spain would be achieved by the Habitat 5U (universities of Comunidad Valenciana), BKC (Barcelona and Politècnica de Catalunya) and VLC/Campus (Valencia and Politécnica de Valencia), CEIs which would lie in the 150-200 range.

The relationship between manufacturing exports and manufacturing sector productivity in Mexico is analyzed. A number of studies suggest that the most productive companies tend to compete more successfully in foreign markets and at the same time these same companies are the ones that decide to export and to channel the necessary resources to raise their productivity rates. In the present document we find that productivity in the manufacturing sector does indeed determine the level of exports in this sector, if investment occurs, or instead, if both are determined simultaneously. Contrary to the findings of Cuevas (2008), in the sense that labor productivity constitutes the principal determinant in manufacturing exports in the case of Mexico in recent years, we present evidence here that the causality between the two variables moves in the opposite direction.

The objective of this study is to ascertain whether financial development influenced economic growth after 1990 (the analysis includes the period 1990 - 2004), a period during which a series of reforms was carried out tending to liberalize Mexico's financial sector. The McKinnon-Shaw hypothesis establishes that government restrictions on the financial sector restrict and distort the process of development in this sector and thereby inhibit the process of economic growth. The estimated incidence of financial development on economic growth is realized using a dynamic aggregate production function, similar to that employed by Asteriou and Price (2000). In contrast with the results obtained by Tinoco, Torres and Venegas (2008), we find that financial development had a positive impact on economic growth in the period under review.
