Quilombo communities (former slaves) formed small villages in inaccessible places in order to live in freedom. These communities have very precarious levels of social, environmental, and public health. The objective of this paper is to create a multicriteria evaluation method to calculate the quality of life of these quilombo communities with regard to health, environment, and education. This evaluation allows to define the scale of the situation in these communities and prioritize public policies. Later, this index will be used in three quilombo communities to validate a multicriteria evaluation method.

How many crimes are committed against businesses and what is the economic damage they cause? This study answers the previous question and includes a preliminary spatial and correlation analysis that allows explore the extent, severity, location and the effects of this public security problem. Based on two victimization surveys against businesses, it is found that direct economic losses and expenditures on protection devices against crime reach multimillion figures. A geography of economic losses and of expenditure on protection devices against crime measures were also found.

En este articulo se realiza una estimacion de los determinantes de la demanda de transporte urbano de pasajeros por colectivo de la ciudad de Bahia Blanca, para tal fin se recabaron datos mensuales del periodo 2007-2014. Se utilizan tecnicas de panel de datos con efectos fijos, que admiten heterogeneidad entre lineas y mejoran la precision de las estimaciones. La estimacion permite obtener elasticidades respecto de la tarifa, del costo de desplazarse en medios alternativos y analizar el rol del nivel general de precios en el volumen de pasajeros que viajan en colectivo.

This article is a first look into the exploratory spatial analysis of economic growth across Mexican municipalities over the period from 1999-2009. Through the exploratory spatial data analysis (ESDA) and geo-statistical techniques, the paper uncovers the importance of spatial contiguity in scattering the economic growth. Therefore, using a spatial and temporal perspective, the article analyzes the spatial autocorrelation phenomenon in identifying patterns and territorial dynamics of economic growth. Finally, it shows the municipalities with virtuous and vicious processes of growth or stagnation, as well as those with resilience to economic growth.

This article analyzes the experiences of beneficiaries of Banmujer’s Social Microenterprises program which has been in operation in Chiapas since 2001, based on the conceptual trilogy of the poor (subject), poverty (context), and impoverishment (process) as proposed by Vega-Estrada. Our results show that the role of microcredit in poverty eradication must not be overestimated and that while they can contribute to reverse the process of impoverishment of poor people, do not affect the structural problem of poverty. With this we hope to contribute to the discussion about whether women microcredit is an effective tool to combat poverty.

Estudios previos sobre la relacion entre infraestructura de transporte y crecimiento economico regional presentan conclusiones divergentes. Este documento aborda el problema a partir de la infraestructura portuaria y el crecimiento economico regional en Mexico. Se determino regionalmente un Indice de infraestructura, el hinterland y la interconectividad portuaria, y mediante un analisis de panel de datos, se explica la relacion positiva puertos-crecimiento entre 1996 y 2013 para todas las regiones litorales. Se demuestra que a medida que se incrementa el nivel de infraestructura portuaria de una region los efectos marginales empiezan a declinar su impacto local.

Este articulo analiza la apropiacion urbana de los migrantes aymaras residentes en dos barrios de la ciudad de El Alto: “El Porvenir I” (periferia) y “16 de Julio” (centro), y su relacion con la dinamica laboral. En el barrio periferico ocurre la configuracion de territorios rururbanos, donde los migrantes empobrecidos mantienen un hilo de continuidad con sus comunidades. Para llevar a cabo esta investigacion, se realizaron entrevistas semi-estructuradas en profundidad a la poblacion migrante y se aplico una encuesta a miembros de 100 hogares en total. Tambien se destaca la observacion no participante de las actividades de la vida cotidiana.
本文分析了居住在埃尔阿尔托市两个社区:“El Porvenir I”(外围)和“16 de Julio”(中心)的艾马拉移民的城市占用及其与劳动动态的关系。在城市地区,贫困的移民与他们的社区保持着一种连续性。为了进行这项研究,对移民人口进行了半结构化的深入访谈,并对100个家庭的成员进行了调查。在这种情况下,参与者的注意力集中在他们的日常活动上。

Recientemente, el modo mas recurrente para acceder al suelo ejidal en las periferias urbanas mexicanas es mediante mecanismos de compra-venta, estos procesos estan caracterizados por la multiplicidad de actores, normas y marcos juridicos, asi como por la regulacion de las instituciones formales e informales. En este trabajo se aborda dicho proceso a traves del concepto de capital social, el cual ofrece elementos que permiten el reconocimiento y la sistematizacion en un contexto de periferia urbana convergente y transicional. Con base en una revision de la literatura se hace una propuesta analitica de la compra-venta de tierras parceladas desde el capital social, se reconocen sus etapas, dimensiones, relaciones y elementos principales.

This paper aims to evidence the characteristics of individuals that affect more the transition from informal to formal sector. The initial hypothesis is that the level of education of each individual is the most important characteristic explaining this transition. To achieve this purpose, we utilize parametric and non-parametric survival analysis: through the hazard function, it was possible to investigate what factors affect the risk of transiting to formality for a worker. For this analysis, we use the data from the Monthly Employment Survey (PME). The level of education appears to be the main characteristic that explains the exit of workers from informality.

Los indicadores de competitividad son importantes a nivel municipal si son usados para desarrollar politicas publicas que impulsen un entorno mas competitivo. Este estudio identifica fortalezas y debilidades de municipios del Estado de Mexico, con caracteristicas similares, a partir de la generacion de un indicador de competitividad municipal. Los municipios con mayores fortalezas son los comerciales y cercanos a zonas urbanas, mientras que los mas desfavorecidos son los agricolas en zonas rurales. Se concluye que para construir un entorno mas competitivo se requiere la interaccion del gobierno, empresas y sociedad.
