- Agrarian migrant workers in times of Covid-19 pandemic: the cases of Spain and PortugalPublication . Jacquinet, Marc; Bussotti, LucaThe research addresses the impact of the pandemic on rural migrant workers in two Southern European countries that are at the center of a restructured supply chains of fresh vegetables: Portugal and Spain, where a new political economy of agriculture emerged in the last decades. These two well-known countries for wine produce also olive, olive oils, almonds, tomatoes, oranges, grapes, and other fruits and vegetables. Traditionally, the workers were still in the 1990s mostly coming from local places. Now, immigrants from Sub-Saharan and Northern Africa and from Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and Asia are a large part of the agrarian labor force. The vulnerability, discrimination, and difficulties of livelihood of these migrants workers are common currency and, despite contradictory economic incentives, the pandemic has made matters worst, especially for women and individuals not speaking the local languages. After describing the historical evolution and differences of the agrarian sectors of the two countries for fresh fruits and vegetables, we discuss the impact of the pandemic with a focus on gender. Whereas the situation before the pandemic was precarious and slowly improving on some counts, namely the increase of worker organization, the current process is one of recess. The paper identifies questions neglected by the literature on the pandemic in rural areas, in particular the vulnerability of immigrant workers to hunger, austerity, gender divide and discrimination, health risks, heavy constrained work, deportation, joblessness, and the lack of policies to ease social and economic ills beyond the focus on temporary normalization and repression.

- Análise custo benefício - ACBPublication . Jacquinet, MarcExistem duas abordagens tradicionais à avaliação dos custos e benefícios na ciência económica (economia política ou economics): a primeira é a abordagem neoclássica que foca o preço de mercado e os critérios de mercados concorrenciais ou quaisquer equivalente de estimativa de um benefício ou custo monetário. A segunda é o método do cálculo do rendimento social ou estimativa do custo/benefício ou valor social. Além destas duas categorias de abordagens, existem (novas e não tão novas) abordagens heterodoxas —constituindo uma terceira categoria — que consideram ou irem além do mercado ou do custo social ou ainda de ir além de ambos. A questão do impacto, do valor de serviço ambiental encontra-se em todas as três categorias de abordagens.
- Artificial intelligence, big data, platform capitalism and public policy: an evolutionary perspectivePublication . Jacquinet, MarcThe present paper aims to discuss the change in political economy when considering the new context and complexity of social, environmental and economic issues today, and more recently all the debates around artificial intelligence, big data and platform capitalism. First, it is important that the reflection be situated in the new and latest phase of transformation of the capitalist system, either globally or locally. Second, the convergence between artificial intelligence, big data, computer science and platforms is not fortuitous and there is more than buzzwords, but new real economic processes emerging. Third, the evolutionary perspective adopted here is based on complexity theory and the recent developments in the study of innovation, technological change and institutions, from a rather heterodox view mixed with economic history. Fourth, the historical dimension of change and the need to adopt a long view of historical processes, namely because of uncertainty, ignorance and constraints on economic agents. Finally, the problem of framing political issues and measures is tackled and is related to the level of complexity of what is at stake with the digital transformation of capitalist economies and different types of democratic societies.

- Business intelligence and of transformational leadershipPublication . Nobre, Ângela Lacerda; Duarte, Rogério; Jacquinet, Marc; Pimentel, Fernando; Silva, MariaThe evolution of the twenty-first century has witnessed the raise of management sciences and the sophistication of its tools and methodologies. A critical part of such evolution has been the development of computing science technologies. Under this setting, Quality Management Systems have developed as a fundamental bridge between information systems and the strategic and operational sides of both businesses and of public institutions. The strategic power of information management has been configured as the field of Business Intelligence, which captures the dynamic circuits of business process modelling and of the decision-making flows.
- As competências globais: uma primeira aproximaçãoPublication . Jacquinet, MarcO gestor global é assim aquele que emerge neste novo ambiente cultural e nas transformações sociais, políticas e económicas das últimas décadas. McCall e Hollenbeck (2002) adoptam uma perspetiva multicultural sobre o que é um gestor ou uma gestora global. Os autores apontam sete competências para gerir o ambiente multicultural e para poderem servir de base para definir o que se entende por bons gestores globais. Veremos mais adiante outras tipologias. Existem ainda outras que os alunos podem pesquisar e enriquecer as discussões e os contributos.
- ComplexitéPublication . Jacquinet, Marc; Caetano, João RelvãoParler de complexité, aujourd’hui, c’est se référer à l’unité de la connaissance scientifique et du monde, ce qui constitue une bonne approximation de l’idée de globalisation. Cette dernière est l’effet – imprévisible, problématique – de l’appétit qu’a la terre entière de satisfaire ses besoins jusqu’à uniformiser, de manière croissante, les moeurs sociales
