Economic Risks

The need to ensure economic security in the context of globalization is based on the stable and safe development of all spheres of society. The financial market is the most large–scale and vulnerable area of the economic life of society, in this regard, it is relevant to study the threats affecting the activities of entities in the financial market, namely the role of economic risks in the financial market as an element of ensuring the country’s economic security. The methodological instruments of the work is based on the use of general methods of scientific knowledge, used both at the empirical and theoretical level: comparison, abstraction, modeling, analysis and synthesis. The article analyzes the risk factors of the Russian financial market since 2014, which allowed us to draw conclusions and formulate possible measures to reduce risks in the financial market that can expand the country’s economic security.

Factor Substitution

AbstractAn alternative version of decomposition analysis, based on factor cost shares rather than input demand functions, is presented and applied to Greek agriculture. Decomposition analysis shows that most of the changes in factor cost shares during the period from 1973 to 1989 are attributed to technical change and factor substitution, while the role of the scale effect is small, except that of fertilizer. The decomposition analysis results are then used to analyze the implications of Greece's fertilizer and feed subsidy removal, which took place in 1990.

Firm Data

Manufacturing firm data for 1820 to 1850 are employed to investigate the role of women and children in the industrialization of the American Northeast. The principal findings include: (1) Women and children composed a major share of the entire manufacturing labor force; (2) their employment was closely associated with production processes used by large establishments, both mechanized and non-mechanized; (3) the wage of females (and boys) increased relative to that of men with industrial development; and (4) female labor force participation in industrial counties was substantial. These findings bear on the nature of technical change during early industrialization and why American industrial development was initially concentrated in the Northeast.

The Common

Differential treatment of men and women in nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century labor markets casts doubt on the common practice of adding male and female labor to create a single “labor” variable in the production function. This article shows that men and women must be disaggregated in the production function, and investigates the effects of inappropriate aggregation on the debate over the Habakkuk-Rothbarth labor scarcity hypothesis. With disaggregation, a female-using bias and an overall labor-using bias is found for the period 1850 through 1919. Technical change was male-neutral through 1900 and male-using thereafter.
