Sommario/riassunto |
|
The oil price decline creates an opportunity to dismantle energy subsidies, which escalatedwith high oil prices. This paper assesses energy subsidies in Latin America and theCaribbean-about 1.8 percent of GDP in 2011-13 (approximately evenly split betweenfuel and electricity), and about 3.8 percent of GDP including negative externalities.Countries with poorer institutions subsidize more. Energy-rich countries subsidize fuelmore, but low-income countries are more likely to subsidize electricity, as are CentralAmerica and the Caribbean. Energy subsidies impose fiscal costs, hurting SOEs,competit |

An overview of early and contemporary Hindi/Urdu and Hindustani grammars and language teaching textbooks demonstrates the problems of correctly naming and identifying the two languages.
