Description: The Legitimacy and Effectiveness of Tradition-Based Approaches of Justice in Transitional Justice – Case of Northern Uganda. The study seeks to identify the place of indigenous practices of justice and reconciliation in the bigger transitional justice framework. Traditional approaches however are not presented as a panacea for overcoming war, securing peace and bringing justice once and for all. Rather their effectiveness is taken to be dependent on a specific set of preconditions that by no means apply in every case and a combination of traditional and modern/western state-based practices of justice are taken to be essential.

Vulnerability of developing countries to external shocks.

Title or brief description of the doctoral research project

Title: Transmission and Impacts of the 2008-2009 Financial and Economic Crisis on Developing Coun- tries: From Macro to Micro.

Description: This PhD research project aims to provide insights into the ways how and extent to which the recent global crisis, originating from within US and European financial sectors, has translated into real consequences for developing countries , and that on both the macro and household level. A first part of the research looks at the ‘Great Recession’ as constituting a wave of external shocks with multiple dimensions impacting the developing world, most notably under the form of declining capital flows and faltering trade. Borrowing from but extending the existing theoretical literature it develops a frame- work for thinking about country-level vulnerabi- lity and its three main components: (the nature of shocks, exposure and resilience) , as well as a classification of strategies to deal with such vulnera- bility (prevention, self-insurance, market insurance/

hedging and coping). This framework is then used as an entry point into an empirical evaluation of the factors that explain differences in growth perfor- mance during the crisis of a large cross-section of non-advanced countries. Other than most recent empirical accounts our analysis attempts to include institutional and political features, next to standard macroeconomic and financial variables. The se- cond module of research, which is to be further refined, will zoom in on crisis impacts on house- holds living and working in one particular developing country community, adapting the above-mentioned vulnerability framework to trace the poverty effect of a global shock (e.g. a fall in commodity prices) all the way down to the micro-level.

Title: Organic and Fair Trade Global Value Chains in Mali. Towards New Forms of Small Producers’

Inclusion in Global Economy.

Description: The agricultural and food-processing activities, in the North as in the South, are at present confronted with a profound reorganization of their institutional and economic environment. This recombining creates a risk of inequalities and exclusion generation for certain actors particularly for the small producers upstream in global value chains. Also, one attends the emergence of alternate agricultural value chains as organic and fair trade products accompanied by specific quality standards and supported by new institutions for a more durable and fair commercial system. In Mali, the organic and fair trade products value chains development focused on export crops among which cotton and sesame but also products of pickings such as the shea fruit. This thesis’ aim is an economic analysis of organic and fair trade products global value chains in Mali with knowing organic fair cotton and sesame. Can the development of organic and fair trade certified products improve producers’ inclusion in global economy and rebalance the power struggles in the global value chains or do reproduce the scenario of the conventional agricultural products? This thesis invites us to investigate on how the global opportuni- ties created by organic and fair trade products can be valorized locally by value chains upstream actors. It also invites us to understand how global certification systems can redynamize the economic exchanges between North and South in impacting local commu- nities’ capabilities to face a global pressure.

Title or brief description of the doctoral research project

Title: Gender Analysis in the Dairy Value Chains in Nicaragua. Revealing Opportunities and Constraints for Success of Women Entrepreneurs.

Description: The research focuses on gender relation- ships in the Dairy Value Chains in Nicaragua; it is oriented around the reflection of some, often neglected, complexities characterizing the dairy sector. The dairy sector and its value chains taking place in are embedded in a complex institutional environment with particular cultural and gender dimensions. The gender analysis is addressed towards the examination of the constraints and opportunities of women and men as micro, small or middle entrepreneurs in their multiple identities in two types of dairy value chains; (a) upgraded chains where the producers of milk have built their own associative enterprises to generate and capture more value added, and (b) more traditional chains in which individual family businesses are predominant. By multiple identities, this study understands women and men as producers, buyers, exporters, suppliers, etc. whose participation also depends on gender, age, educational level, expertise, residence place, and the ability to build social networks.

Title: Economic Geography and Endogenous Trade Policy under Imperfect Competitive Markets.

Description: The research paper aims to explain economic disparities that emerge when nations encourage trade liberalization processes. Two different kinds of backgrounds are interrelated in order to build alternative settings that may explain those disparities. A political game à la Grossman and Helpman is taken into account in order to introduce political variables in some of the New Economic Geography models.

Title or brief description of the doctoral research project

Title: Location of Economic Activities within Coun- tries. The Case of Argentina and MERCOSUR Members.

Description: Motivated by the striking spatial reality of my country, Argentina, this thesis contributes to the body of research known as the New Economic Geography (NEG) and to the underdeveloped study of economic geography in Argentina and MERCO- SUR. The dissertation aims at understanding how location and agglomeration of economic activities have occurred within the country and the bloc during the last decades of re-opening of the economy to international trade. The introductory chapter lays out the motivation and objectives of this thesis, and presents its plan. Chapter 1 puts it into the perspec- tive of the existing literature. It is a very complete and rather detailed revision of the NEG framework, focusing on theoretical and empirical contributions that address the impacts of trade costs changes on domestic economic landscapes. Chapter 2 introduces a typical model of new economic geography, exten- ded to deal with different ‘pre-integration’ scenarios in order to evaluate the spatial effects that a regional integration agreement may provoke within a member country. Chapter 3 builds a model that, introducing some more realistic such as comparative advantage differences across regions and intra-industry linkages, accounts for the role of transport costs and infrastructure in determining intra-country location and export performance. Chapter 4 studies location within Argentina at the light of the predictions derived from the model in the second chapter.

Specifically, it carries out an explanatory spatial data analysis of the Argentinean economic landscape after MERCOSUR formation. Chapter 5 assesses whether regional export performance in Argentina, between 2003 and 2005, can be explained by means of the theoretical framework developed in the third chapter.

(21)

In this regard the chapter estimates the model-based gravity equation derived in that previous chapter.

Chapter 6 accomplished a related assessment for MERCOSUR regions. Propo-sing a more policy-orien- ted exercise, it attempted to identify where the resources of the Fondo de Convergencia Estructural del MERCOSUR (FOCEM) for infrastructure invest- ment should be directed to. Finally, the concluding chapter summarises the contributions of this thesis and presents potentially interesting topics related to the subject of the thesis that, having been put aside, will be among the objectives of future research.

Title: China and Project Aid, ‘new’ Donor facing old Obstacles?

Description: Project aid has always been one of the most intuitive forms of aid. Can there be a better way to help a country that is lacking the facilities and services necessary for its development, than by providing these to them? Fifty years of development assistance in Africa has learned us that the answer to Africa’s development needs is not that simple. For over two decades, from the beginning of the 1960s until the oil crisis of the 1970s, project aid was the only mainstream aid modality in the donor arsenal.

But weak institutional capacity and lack of political will undermined the effectiveness of projects as a development modality and led to a paradigm shift towards the promotion of conditionality based program aid since the 1980s. Structural Adjustment Programs, the New Aid Approach and everything that lies in-between, became the direct descendants of this shift. Over the last couple of years, China has evolved into one of Africa’s largest providers of infrastructure projects, as it uses the competitive edge of its construction industry to meet the major gap in hard infrastructure. These projects are most often embedded in the so called ‘Angola Model’

agreements, where the recipient counties leverage their resources and get infrastructure in return. The agreements often include a variety of aid provisions, but are fundamentally economic deals, which are
