One of them is social capital, which can be an advantage for its development It influences the ability among the market entities to cooperate with each other and to create their competitiveness on the market. The lack of social capital causes many disadvantages like the lack of ability to cooperate between different actors.

Resumen: Con ocasión de la crisis del COVID-19 se han publicado distintos análisis y reflexiones sobre el impacto que ésta puede tener sobre sobre la forma y la dinámica territorial a medio y largo plazo, así como sobre las posibilidades de desarrollo de los distintos territorios. Muchos de ellos subrayan la oportunidad que la crisis puede representar para reconsiderar drásticamente, desde cero, el paradigma actual de producción y consumo, así como el modelo territorial predominante. Aunque la duración temporal de la crisis sanitaria es un factor fundamental en la consolidación de estas nuevas tendencias, la situación actual y evolución probable de la pandemia a escala global nos lleva a afirmar que, hasta cierto punto “la vida después del COVID-19” será “la vida con COVID-19” (OCDE, 2020), de ahí la necesidad de reflexionar sobre las consecuencias a largo plazo, y de proponer un nuevo enfoque de desarrollo territorial que tenga en cuenta las diferentes necesidades y los cambios planteados por el nuevo contexto. En las páginas siguientes recogemos algunas de las ideas principales de estas aportaciones, centrando el análisis en algunos de los temas más estrechamente relacionados con el paradigma del desarrollo local: las economías locales, la sostenibilidad ambiental y social, el modelo territorial y la formación del capital social.   Palabras clave: COVID-19, desarrollo local,” Economía Fundamental”, cambio productivo, forma urbana, capital social.   Abstract: With the COVID-19 crisis, various analyses and reflections have been published on the impact it may have on the shape and dynamics of the territory in the medium and long term, as well as on the development possibilities of the different territories. Many of them underline the opportunity that the crisis may represent to drastically reconsider, from scratch, the current paradigm of production and consumption, as well as the predominant territorial model. Although the temporal duration of the health crisis is a fundamental factor in the consolidation of these new trends, the current situation and probable evolution of the pandemic on a global scale leads us to affirm that, to a certain extent, "life after COVID-19" will be "life with COVID-19" (OECD, 2020), hence the need to reflect on the long-term consequences, and to propose a new territorial development approach that takes into account the different needs and changes posed by the new context. In the following pages we gather some of the main ideas of these contributions, focusing the analysis on some of the issues most closely related to the local development paradigm: local economies, environmental and social sustainability, the territorial model and the formation of social capital.   Keywords: COVID-19, local development, “Basic Economy”, productive change, urban form, social capital.

The main objective of this study is to provide an overview of the evolution of the medical system in Wallachia between 1840 and 1860 and the very important role of physician Nicolae Gussi (1802-1869), protomedicus of Wallachia between 1840 and 1859, to transform medicine into a modern public service, accessible to the entire population. Particularly, we will refer to the medical reform project of 1853, which Gussi implemented during the time he headed the medical-sanitary administration. We will insist on the details of the project because it was designed to create a network of county hospitals that would improve the health of the population and, in the medium and long term, would reduce mortality and increase life expectancy. Another dimension of the study aims at the tenure of physicians in county hospitals and describes the medical services they provided to patients, particularly from the poor population.

This paper reviews theory and research pertaining to the acquisition of identity capital and social capital, and applies it to the changing nature of learning in late-modern societies, where the ability to undertake individualized life courses is becoming an increasingly important divide in the fortunes of the young as they make their way to adulthood. The identity capital model is elaborated in terms of the importance now placed on choice-making in managing the individualization process and balancing the immediate appeal of default individualization with the long-term gains of developmental individualization. This model points toward the need to institute an 'education for choice' in curricula to enhance the wider benefits of learning for both the individual, in terms of identity capital accumulation, and for the community with respect to intergenerational social capital building.

O objetivo deste artigo é contribuir com o debate conceitual sobre pobreza extrema e propor a incorporação de novos elementos para a compreensãodesse complexo fenômeno. A inexistência de clareza sobre o que é e como se mede pobreza extrema é um fato que continua a desafiar os pesquisadores. Além disso,e apesar dos avanços, as contribuições disponíveis, na sua maioria, não contemplam o processo conhecido como razão pública. Este artigo apresenta um diferencial nesteaspecto, combinando elementos do debate corrente na literatura com resultados de uma pesquisa de campo que, dentre outras inovações, definiu as dimensões dapobreza a serem investigas ouvindo os pobres. Os resultados mostram que pobreza extrema está muito longe de ser apenas uma questão de intensidade na privação do acesso a recursos para sobrevivência. A pobreza extrema congrega características deintensidade, persistência e multiplicidade. Os resultados econométricos evidenciaram que o capital social, renda e escolaridade são as dimensões mais importantes paracaracterizar os pobres extremos.Extreme poverty and its triple foundation: depth, persistence and multiplicityAbstract:The paper aims to contribute to the discussion on extreme poverty conceptualization and measurement of its dimensions and manifestations. It is widely known that there is no agreement about the conceptualization of extremepoverty. The literature goes from the traditional measures which are based on lack of income to the more sophisticated definitions using deprivation of basic capabilities and fundamental human rights. However, the majority of the concepts available in the literature are based on ideas and knowledge of the researchers and experts without any participation from the poor and extremely poor people.Our contribution in this paper is to put together the evolving debate from the literature and the results from a survey carried out in Porto Alegre (Brazil) during 2007. The results from the two stage questionnaire shows that that extreme poverty is far more complex than the lack of basic resources to survive, and the majority of poor people in Porto Alegre faced some of the extreme poverty characteristics duringtheir life. The econometric results point out social capital, income and schooling as important variables to explain extreme poverty.Key-words: extreme poverty, capability, multidimensionality.JEL: I32; I39.

Using panel data from the Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey for 2006-2014, the paper investigates reservation wages setting in the Russian labor market. The sample includes non-employed individuals wishing to get a job (both searchers and non-searchers). The first part of the paper provides a survey of previous empirical studies, describes data and analyzes subjective estimates of reservation wages in comparison with various objective indicators of actual wages. The analysis shows that wage aspirations of the majority of Russian non-employed individuals are overstated. However their wage expectations are rather flexible and decrease rapidly as the search continues that prevents high long-term unemployment. The second part of the paper provides an econometric analysis of main determinants of reservation wage and its impact on probability of re-employment and wages on searchers’ new jobs.
