Teoria dos Contratos rende Nobel a dois economistas
Teoria dos Contratos rende Nobel a dois economistas: O prémio Nobel da Economia foi esta segunda-feira atribuído aos economistas Oliver Hart e Bengt Holmström pelo seu contributo para a teoria dos contratos.
Economists win Nobel for contract theory

Economists win Nobel for contract theory
Judges said their work laid "an intellectual foundation" for policies in areas such as bankruptcy legislation and political constitutions.
The pair will receive 8 million Swedish krona from the committee.
Mr Hart, who was woken with the news at 4.40am, said his first reaction had been to hug his wife and wake his younger son.
Mr Holmstrom said he felt "very lucky" and "grateful".
The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences said that Mr Hart and Mr Holmstrom's work was "valuable to the understanding of real-life contracts and institutions".
It also said it could identify "potential pitfalls in contract design."
Working separately, the two created tools to help determine whether public sector workers should receive fixed salaries or performance-based pay, and whether providers of public services should be publicly or privately owned.
Mr Holmstrom in particular is known for his research into how contracts and incentives affect corporate behaviour.
The former Nokia board member declined to say whether he thought executive pay was too high these days, but commented: "My personal view is that [top executives' contracts] are too complicated today."
Competitive field.
Mr Holmstrom, aged 67, is a professor of economics and management at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, while Mr Hart, born in 1948, is an economics professor at Harvard University in the US.
The pair saw off competition from the World Bank's new chief economist Paul Romer, who was widely tipped to win.
New York University's Stern Business School, where Prof Romer teaches, sparked controversy last Thursday when it accidently published a press release naming him as the winner.
It quickly took down the release, saying it was only preparing for a possible win.
Others believed to be the running included Olivier Blanchard, a former chief economist at the International Monetary Fund, and Edward Lazear, a fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.
American's dominate.
The economics prize is the only Nobel not created by Alfred Nobel, and was instead launched in 1968, long after the philanthropist's death.
To date Americans have dominated the award, with 55 of the 76 laureates holding US citizenship, including those with dual nationalities.
Last year Scottish-born economist Angus Deaton won the prize for his use of data to investigate income inequality and inform economic policy.
It is the fifth Nobel to be announced this year, after prizes for physiology or medicine, physics, chemistry and peace were awarded last week.
The Nobel prize for literature will be awarded on Thursday.
Previous winners of the Nobel Prize for Economics: 2015: Angus Deaton (Britain-US). 2014: Jean Tirole (France). 2013: Eugene Fama, Lars Peter Hansen and Robert Shiller (US). 2012: Alvin Roth and Lloyd Shapley (US). 2011: Thomas Sargent and Christopher Sims (US). 2010: Peter Diamond and Dale Mortensen (US) and Christopher Pissarides (Cyprus-Britain). 2009: Elinor Ostrom and Oliver Williamson (US). 2008: Paul Krugman (US). 2007: Leonid Hurwicz, Eric Maskin and Roger Myerson (US). 2006: Edmund Phelps (US).

TPP Grants Banks Terrifying Secret Powers
Publicado em 20 de jun de 2015
"In March 2014, the Bank of England let the cat out of the bag: money is just an IOU, and the banks are rolling in it. So wrote David Graeber in The Guardian the same month, referring to a BOE paper called "Money Creation in the Modern Economy." The paper stated outright that most common assumptions of how banking works are simply wrong. The result, said Graeber, was to throw the entire theoretical basis for austerity out of the window.
The revelation may have done more than that. The entire basis for maintaining our private extractive banking monopoly may have been thrown out the window. And that could help explain the desperate rush to "fast track" not only the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and the Trans-Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), but the Trade in Services Agreement (TiSA). TiSA would nip attempts to implement public banking and other monetary reforms in the bud."

What is TISA?
Publicado em 27 de jun de 2014
The Trade In Services Agreement referred to as (TISA) covers 50 countries and 68.2% of world trade in services. The U.S. and the European Union (EU) are the main proponents of the agreement. If enacted, the agreement would severely limit the ability of the U.S. to regulate the financial sector. Wikileaks included part of the text.
TTIP, El golpe de Estado que se está preparando en silencio
Publicado em 1 de nov de 2014
El Tratado trasatlántico de Comercio e Inversión (TTIP) es un tratado de libre comercio entre Estados unidos y Europa que se está negociando en secreto, de espaldas a la ciudadanía, con el que, entre otras cosas, se pretende:
1. entregar los servicios públicos a la empresa privada.
2. acabar con la regulación de los mercados financieros
3. la libre circulación de los datos de la ciudadanía.
Muchas ONG, sindicatos y partidos alertan de que tendría unas consecuencias fatales sobre los derechos sociales y sobre el bienestar y calidad de vida de las clases populares de los países de la Unión Europea.
Hablamos de ello con Verónica Gómez, de Attac Alicante.

T.I.S.A., el peligroso secreto que oculta el T.T.I.P. (DaB Doblado Esp.)
Publicado em 24 de jun de 2015
T.I.S.A. - TRATADO INTERNACIONAL PARA SERVICIOS E INVERSIONES.
T.T.I.P. - TRATADO TRANSATLANTICO DE LIBRE COMERCIO ENTRE EUROPA Y EEUU
Este video corto, extraído de la televisión pública bávara (Alemania), doblado al español, nos despeja muchas dudas sobre cual debería ser nuestra posición ante semejante aberración económica, antidemocrática y carente de todo principio moral, es decir, ILEGITIMO.
Si no fuera porque va en serio.... lo del TISA es casí para dar risa...
¿Qué clase de gente nos gobierna? ¿Qué clase de acomodad@s funcionarios tenemos en el parlamento europeo? ¿Son sólo el adorno democrático de un sistema fascista?
...................................
Tod@s los partidos políticos que apoyan el TTIP y el TISA, son, como poco, sospechosos de traición a su gente, a su tierra, a sus conciudadanos, a sus votantes.
Es inmoral pretender pasar como legítimo el robo, la coacción, la extorsión, la esclavitud ....
Recordamos que las negociaciones de estos tratados:
►SON SECRETAS, SIN ACCESO PUBLICO A LOS DEBATES O A LOS TEXTOS QUE SE VAN APROBANDO, SIN REFERENDUM, SIN DAR la mínima información AL PUEBLO.
►La CONFIDENCIALIDAD DEL DOCUMENTO FIRMADO, será de al menos 30 años.
►Con cláusulas de irrevocabilidad, es decir, UNA VEZ PRIVATIZADO UN SERVICIO PUBLICO, ya NUNCA podrá volver a ser PUBLICO.
►Los trabajadores se convertirán en PROVEEDORES DE HORAS de las empresas, siendo tratados como eso, proveedores, sin servicios sanitarios y prestaciones por desempleo.
►Ciudadanos y estados podríamos ser demandados por una gran corporación ante un tribunal "de expertos" abogados novatos, preparados y pagados por estas grandes compañías.
No sabemos cómo os suena todo esto, en el equipo de DaB Radio, esto nos suena a "TODO PARA EL PUEBLO PERO SIN CONTAR CON EL PUEBLO".
Absoluto absolutismo, ESCLAVISMO.
...................................
La moral más básica, esa que sabe al instante cuando algo está bien o mal, nos dice a tod@s, que los tratados TTIP y TISA no son buenos, por estar siendo negociados con formas inmoralmente aceptables.
Por todo ello, en Desmontando a Babylon, nos declaramos INSUMISOS a cualquier obligación impuesta desde la firma del TTIP y la firma del tratado TISA, somos conscientes que si no lo hacemos, perdemos todo referente ético con nosotr@s mism@s.
Hay muchos tipos de fascismo, pero todos están en el T.T.I.P.

WikiLeaks Exposes TISA Corporate Takeover Plot
Publicado em 3 de jul de 2015
WikiLeaks released secret documents from the Trade In Services Agreement (TISA) negotiations on Wednesday in what it called "a modern journalistic holy grail.” The documents expose the largest trade deal in history, which is currently being negotiated by 52 nations, providing further evidence of how "a self-selected group of mainly rich countries" plans to "bypass other governments in the World Trade Organization (WTO) and rewrite its services agreement in the interests of their corporations." We look at the leaked documents on the Lip News with Mark Sovel and Jose Marcelino Ortiz.
