This article revisits the art of building composite vulnerability and resilience indexes in development economics at a macro scale. We propose a holistic index whose components result from an algorithm of graph theory (the net vulnerability and resilience index), which we compare with the...

Several assessment of vulnerability and resilience have been attempted at a country level through composite indices but they are barely in accord with a holistic view of sustainable development. We suggest graph theory to structure a network of variables that depict vulnerability and resilience...

Using the structural unobserved component (UC) modeling, this study will analyze the Senegalese economic growth path after 5 decades of independence by focusing on the potential output, the GDP cycle, and the type of shocks on the GDP. Empirical evidence suggests that an inventory cycle mainly...

Monetary policy contributes to stabilize growth. Particularly in a reforming context for financial and economic activities, it is important to know how central bankers' decisions through the short term interest rate of the money market are transmitted to the real variables: the GDP and the...

By reasoning of composite indexes, several empirical tests have been implemented to compare countries on a macroeconomic scale for their vulnerability but rarely for their resilience. The results, based on different computation methods, do not systematically deal with sustainable development,...
