Approaches based on Social Accounting Matrices (SAMs) and Socio-Demographic Matrices (SDMs) will be presented as a way of capturing relevant networks of linkages and the corresponding multiplier effects, which can subsequently be used for modelling the activity of the countries to be studied....

The values of economic flows measured by the national accounts, associated to transactions of goods, services, and assets, as well as transfers, represent interactions between institutional units, to whom legal responsibility for their actions and the fulfilment of specific economic functions is...

A Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) is presented as a tool to study the socio-economic activity of a country. This activity involves the monetary or nominal flows that are measured by the National Accounts, as well as production (organized in factors, industries and goods and services) and...

To better understand trade in the context of global value chains, it is important to have a full and explicit decomposition of value-added in gross exports. While the decomposition proposed by Koopman, Wang and Wei (2014) is a first step in this direction, there are still three outstanding...

In this paper, we propose a new accounting framework for the decomposition of value-added into domestic, foreign and double counting terms in domestic sales. In this framework, we show where the value-added double counting is derived from and give an explicit expression of domestic and foreign...

Unconditional basic income is not a new topic in political economy, and it gains new momentum as more and more research is being devoted to it. The discussion focusses on the adequacy and effects such a policy measure may entail for a person and his socio-economic situation, usually. Object of...

In this paper, we propose a hypothetical extraction that provides a theoretically-funded measure of FVA in gross exports and we provide full expressions for a decomposition of gross exports into four terms: DVA, domestic double counting (DDC), FVA and foreign double counting (FDC). As in Los et...
