The effect of confinement on intimate partner violence is hard to assess, partly because of usual endogeneity problems, but also because the often-used report calls poorly measure that violence. We exploit self-reported survey data from Argentina to study the extent to which the coronavirus pandemic quarantine had unintended consequences on intimate partner violence. The quarantine decree established clear exceptions for heterogeneous subsets of the population and, for reasons plausibly exogenous to the prevalence of intimate partner violence, only some individuals were forced to spend more time with their partners.Using this variability in exposure we find that the lockdown led to an increase between 12% and 35% in intimate partner violence, depending type of violence (emotional, physical or sexual). Given the Argentinian government imposed the full national lockdown when few people felt threatened by the virus, these effects are likely to have been triggered by the actual confinement.

Abstract This paper evaluates the impact of two programs that provide public and private goods, in the form of irrigation canals and materials (such as hail nets). Using a twelve-year panel of wine producers from Mendoza and San Juan, Argentina, we find that the programs have had positive and significant impacts on production and yield. We also find that the programs present important complementarities, in the sense that being exposed to the two interventions increases the outputs more than the mere sum of the separate interventions.

RESUMENDesde la década de 1970, el contexto macroeconómico en la Argentina y el Brasil se caracterizó por cambios económicos drásticos e inestabilidad. En numerosos estudios se ha documentado el efecto generalmente negativo de ese entorno en las capacidades de innovación del sector manufacturero. En este trabajo, en cambio, se analiza el posible surgimiento de nuevas capacidades de innovación en dicho período, revelándose dos fenómenos importantes. Primero, un número no menor de empresas, incluso en entornos inestables, redoblaron sus esfuerzos innovadores. Segundo, estas empresas se concentran en un grupo reducido de sectores relacionados con las ventajas estáticas de estos países o en sectores favorecidos por regímenes sectoriales específicos. Los resultados encontrados, aunque exploratorios, contribuyen a la discusión sobre la construcción de capacidades innovadoras en contextos macroeconómicos inestables y la capacidad de los sectores vinculados a las ventajas estáticas de ambos países para generar espacios de innovación y creación de valor.
