We consider a leader and a subordinate he appoints who work in a team. The public observes the organization’s performance, but not the separate contribution of the leader or of the subordinate. The leader may therefore claim credit for the good work of his subordinate. We find conditions which induce the leader to claim credit (both truthfully and untruthfully), and the conditions which lead the leader to appoint a subordinate of low ability.JEL Classification:

Substantial amounts of debt relief have been granted to a set of low-income countries, as an alternative aid modality. Although
the theoretical case for debt relief is firmly established, only empirical analysis can show whether debt relief is indeed
a (more) effective mode of aid delivery. We investigate the linkages between debt relief and other fiscal variables such as
current expenditure, government investment, taxation and domestic borrowing, in comparison to the effects of grants and concessional
loans. We find that the fiscal impact of HIPC debt relief follows fairly complex dynamics. For example, debt relief initially
reduces government investment, but the effect becomes positive after two years, well outperforming other modes of aid delivery.

ABSTRACTIn rural African societies, socioeconomic differentiation linked to gender and social status exerts an important influence on the distribution of common-pool resources. Through a behavioral experiment conducted in 2008 in rural Tanzania, this contribution examines the influence of gender and social status on distribution behavior of users of self-governed common watersheds. It finds that men and women with low social status distribute water equally when water is abundant but keep larger shares when water is scarce, although low-status women try to be as fair as possible at the expense of their returns from irrigated agriculture. Men of high social status keep more than half of the available water for themselves, both in abundance and scarcity, and deprive others from sizeable returns from irrigated agriculture. Women of high social status share altruistically when water is abundant and equally when water is scarce, giving up on returns from irrigated agriculture. 相似文献

The conditions in which telecommunication services are established and expanded in the developing countries are very different from those experienced in the industrial nations. The author provides insight into the peculiarities of the telecommunication sector in developing countries, discussing characteristics related to the structure of the sector, system size and quality, telecommunications as a business, limitations to faster growth, and some particular problem areas, including the impact on economic development, especially in rural areas, training and education directed towards high technical and managerial positions, and the manufacture of equipment. 相似文献
