Item type:Publication, Brechas de ingresos laborales en el Perú urbano: una exploración de la economía informal(Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú. Departamento de Economía, 2015)Informality is a phenomenon widely present in the Peruvian economy, although with different nuances in it. In this paper we explore the labor market segmentation hypothesis, by decomposing wage gaps using a non-parametric technique introduced by Ñopo (2004). The results show that about 35% of the wage gaps between formal and informal workers cannot be explained by observable factors. These findings do not allow to refute the segmentation hypothesis. Nevertheless, total gaps have narrowed over the past decade. The group of independent workers shows opposed trends in relation to other categories. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Street commerce and disputes over public space in downtown Lima (Peru): Temporary spaces, negotiation and daily life(Academie des sciences, 2025-01-01)This paper aims to analyze how the daily practices of regulation of street commerce not only operate under criteria of discretion, but also configure temporary spaces of commerce. Based on an analysis of observation, interviews and urban records, the case of the main metropolitan commercial centrality in Lima (Peru) is examined. We propose to make visible the temporary and mobile nature of street commerce, describing micro-negotiation practices, where the State –through its officials– acts daily in the production of space. The article dialogues with the contributions of contemporary research on mobility and informality and establishes a contribution to the understanding of the dynamics of street trade.1
