The granting of criminal sanctions to corporate administrators who commit copyright crimes will not give deterrent effects to the corporation, because the loss of one and/or several employees who undergo criminal sanctions can be easily replaced by anyone and at any time. The method used in this study is Normative Jurisdiction. The results of the study show that corporations in copyright infringement must be prosecuted criminally, because the losses are very large, have multi-dimensional consequences, ranging from losses to the state, the wider community of owners or copyright holders, and create frustration that weakens the spirit of creativity.

In our model, the government operates a mandatory proportional (contributive) pension system to substitute for the low life-cycle savings of the low-paid myopes. The socially optimal contribution rate is high (equalizing young- and old-age consumption for them), while an appropriate cap on pension contributions makes room for the saving of high-paid far-sighted workers. In our parameterization (with a Pareto earning distribution), the optimal cap can be determined but its aggregate impact is negligible.

Nous montrons que le GATT devrait permettre aux pays de modifier leurs politiques agricoles et que les forces intérieures ne permettraient pas à elles seules, d'aboutir à de telles réformes. L'attention est centrée sur la Politique Agricole de la Communauté et sur la définition d'une politique encore plus "découplée".
