Full textThe dynamics of pharmaceutical markets have been constantly changing last years. The development of the so called “follow-on” or “me-too” drugs has been in the centre of a major debate concerning the ability of innovation in the health sector. These drugs are characterized by having a minor level of innovation and do not add any therapeutic value in relation to the previous drugs launched in the market. This doctoral dissertation proposes three empirical essays concerning competition aspects in the market of incremental innovation in France. The first chapter focuses on the impact of entry order on “follow-on” drugs competition in the French market between years 2001 and 2007. More precisely, this study examines the effects on market share of first entrants in the follow-on drug market and how this possible competitive advantage changes over time. Our results are coherent with theoretical microeconomic issues concerning the importance of being first. We find evidence that first movers in the follow on drug market have the ability to capture and maintain greater market share for a long period of time. The hierarchical market position of follow on drugs does not seem to be affected by generic drugs emergence. From a dynamic perspective, our analysis shows that market share is positively correlated with the ability of follow on drugs to set prices higher than the average follow-on drug price in a specific therapeutic class (ATC) which means that market power remains considerably important for first movers. Finally we found that the optimum level of innovation to maximize market share is the highest one.The second chapter examines the relationship between entry order of follow-on drugs and their prices on the French pharmaceutical market. We used a representative panel data of 1047 follow-on drug formulations distributed in 118 ATC classes set over 2001-2007. Two measures of prices were used in the econometric specifications: the absolute price and the relative price of the follow-on drugs. The former concerns simply the absolute price of the drug in daily costs and the latter is the price of the drug relative to the average price of the follow-on drugs in the class. Both prices are calculated on the basis of manufacturer prices. These different indicators give us similar results for the impact of entry order on prices but they are differently correlated with market share. Moreover, our study analyses the potential impact of several variables on prices of pharmaceutical incremental innovation such as firm size, innovation and intensity of competition. Our results suggest that big firms have more ability to negotiate higher prices and that the number of follow-on drugs in the class and the emergence of generic competition may help decrease general prices in the ATC class. We have not found any relationship between prices and innovation in the French pharmaceutical market.The third chapter investigates the potential relationship between follow-on drugs dissemination and generic drug market emergence. It explores the structural determinants of off-patented drugs development at the therapeutic class level with a focus on explanatory variables that reflect the intensity of competition amongst similar interchangeable drugs. We found that generic market growth is greater in therapeutic classes where the number of similar drugs is high and the average brand price is low. This could be due to the fact that brand name drugs reduce their prices to keep market share when generic drugs enter the market. We study also the generic to follow-on brand price ratio at the individual drug level and we found that generic prices of later follow-on drugs are closer to the price of the brand name than generics of first follow-on movers. Our results are coherent with the fact that intensity of competition in the follow-on drugs may help reduce prices not only in the patented drug markets but also in the off-patented sector
Orosz, Gábor. "Social representation of competition, fraud and academic cheating of French and Hungarian citizens." Reims, 2010. http://www.theses.fr/2010REIML004.
Full textThe goal of the thesis was a comparison between hungarian and french citizens' social representation Of competition and fraud. In the first study hungarian businessmen were interviewed regarding Competition. The results showed that 79% of them mentioned spontaneously dishonesty during the Interviews. In the next study, the goal was the exploration of hungarian and french students' social Representation of competition and fraud. The results showed weak overlap between the two Representations concerning both examined samples. However, in the case of the content of the Representation of competition hungarians were more result-oriented, whereas french were oriented oward self-improvement. Moreover, hungarians' representations were more diverse and less organized than french' ones. In the case of fraud, hungarians mentioned more frequently academic cheating, than their french peers. Therefore, the following study concentrated more on cultural differences concerning academic cheating. The results suggest that hungarians reported a higher cheating rate, than french students. In the final study, cheating-related behavioral differences were examined in competitive situations. The results did not show that hungarians cheated more than french students. However, cultural differences were revealed: in the case of french students, previous acquaintanceship predicted cheating, whlle among hungarians it was open-competitive situation that predicted cheating behavior. The results were explained by taking into consideration the theory of social representations and previous researches in the field of competition and academic cheating

Full textSince the LDB in 1996, the Private Higher Education experienced a sudden expansion, presenting annual rates of growth in the number of Higher Education Institution (HEIs) of 14.8% but now is showing clear signs of deceleration. The recent increase in the number of HEIs, without a commensurable increase in the number of students, has caused a high indication of idle vacancies inside a highly competitive environment. Against this scene, the following question is asked: What are the strategic postures and the extension of the resources most likely to be used by Northeastern private HEIs against the scene prospected for the period which goes from 2009 to 2015? In answer to this question, the purpose of this research is to identify the strategic postures and the extension of the resources most likely to be used by HEIs against the prospected scene. The process of elaborating the scenario was based on the study by Porto and Régnier (2003); for the strategy model it was used the proposition by Forte (2001), with the Strategic Postures Map; and as referential of the competitive resources used by HEIs, it was identified those described in the study by Lynch and Baines (2004) based on HEIs from United Kingdom and in the study by Sousa et al. (2005), focused on Brazilian HEIs. It was used a methodology of exploratory kind and quantitative nature, performed by the application of questionnaires that were adjusted and validated by interviews and pre-tests. The data were collected during 2008/2009. 20 specialists and 19 managers participated during the development of the scene, and 83 managers from Northeastern private HEIs helped to identify the strategies and resources most likely to be used. The data were analyzed through descriptive techniques, the cluster and the factor analysis. The results show that the scene Everything For the Market is the most representative and that HEIs are in the current position of Maintenance (competition), using less radical strategies in each posture, and prioritizing those resources that don t provide much strategic advantage, such as infrastructure and facilities, which suggests an overall weak competitive power in search of growth and a higher position.
O Ensino Superior Privado, após rápida expansão vivida a partir da LDB de 1996, com taxas anuais de crescimento do número de Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES) de até 14,8%, dá sinais claros de desaceleração. O recente aumento no número de IES, sem o proporcionalaumento no número de alunos, tem gerado alto índice de vagas ociosas num ambiente que já se configura como hipercompetitivo. Diante deste cenário, questiona-se: quais as posturas estratégicas e dimensões de recursos de utilização mais provável pelas IES particulares do Nordeste, frente ao cenário prospectado para o período de 2009 a 2015? Em resposta ao questionamento da pesquisa, definiu-se como objetivo identificar as posturas estratégicas e as dimensões de recursos de utilização mais provável, pelas IES, frente ao cenário prospectado.Para a elaboração do cenário utilizou-se como base o estudo de Porto e Régnier (2003); como modelo de estratégia a proposição de Forte (2001), com o Mapa de Posturas Estratégicas; e como referencial de recursos competitivos em IES, as dimensões descritas nos estudos de Lynch e Baines (2004), com base nas IES do Reino Unido, e de Sousa et al. (2005), com foco em IES brasileiras. A metodologia empregada foi do tipo exploratória, de natureza quantitativa, viabilizada mediante aplicação de questionários, ajustados e validados por meio de entrevistas e pré-testes. Os dados de campo foram coletados no período de 2008/2009.Participaram da elaboração do cenário 20 especialistas e 19 gestores, e na identificação das estratégias e recursos mais prováveis, 83 gestores de IES particulares da região. Na análise dos dados utilizaram-se de técnicas descritivas, análise de clusters e fatorial. Os resultados demonstram que o Cenário Tudo pelo Mercado é o mais representativo e que as IES estão na postura de Manutenção (competição), utilizando-se de estratégias menos radicais em cada postura, e priorizando recursos que não proporcionam diferencial competitivo sustentável,como infraestrutura física e fatores de conveniência, sugerindo, no geral, frágil poder de fogo em busca de crescimento e posição superior.

Full textEm um novo contexto de negócios do mundo globalizado, surge um cenário competitivo, marcado pela intensa concorrência, que exige maior integração entre as empresas e rápida adequação a novos desafios, aperfeiçoando o nível do serviço e a otimização do tempo. Nos mais diversos ramos de atividades, os clientes começaram a exigir eficiência e um rigoroso controle em serviços, se tratando do setor portuário, e cada vez mais uma maior diversidade de serviços relacionados à cadeia logística. A modernização de um terminal de contêineres se dá pelo grande empreendimento industrial, onde variadas atividades acontecem ao mesmo tempo, equipamentos movimentando navios - cargas e descargas - grandes máquinas movimentando-se em todas as direções, o mais rápido e eficientemente possível. Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo estudar o comportamento de uma empresa de operações portuárias em Santos sua competitividade e ações estratégicas frente às ameaças naturais de um mercado com novos entrantes. A fundamentação teórica principal do trabalho é baseada, nas estratégias genéricas e nas cinco forças competitivas de Porter, principalmente relacionadas aos projetos de novos entrantes no Porto de Santos, e seus impactos. A conclusão do estudo, em resumo, leva ao entendimento de que as estratégias de diversificação de serviços, fortalecimento da marca, exploração de novos nichos, ampliação do escopo geográfico dos novos projetos, dentre outras, conseguiram neutralizar as ameaças mapeadas no diagnóstico inicial.

Full textThe research aims to analyze the determinant and relevant variables in exports of fresh ginger (Harmonized system code 0910.11.00.00) from the Republic of Peru to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, between the years 2012 - 2019. The instability of Peruvian ginger exports has been developing, has created an interest in analyzing it based on three variables: macroeconomic environment, international competition, and food safety management, from a mixed methods research. This investigation will have a causal explanatory approach by a cross-sectional design, where is applied a multiple linear regression and is proposed a predictive mathematical model of the acceptable variables, and a phenomenological design through the interview guide of semi-structured type. The results indicate that in the macroeconomic environment, price is the most influenced indicator, where organic certifications are the ones that allow the product to come out with a better market price on the Netherlands market. Regarding international competition, the product features indicator is emphasized, by organic conditions and the natural properties of the product. Finally, in respect of the variable food safety management, it is enhanced through the indicator safety management certifications where GlobalG.A.P. and HACCP are the most important. In conclusion, the macroeconomic environment is a determinant variable of fresh ginger exports, while international competition and food safety management are related variables of fresh ginger exports. However, the results demonstrate, the international competition is the most relevant, highlighting the indicator product features.

The purpose of this research is to develop a theoretical material, dealing with the new directions of the international tax policy, in the post-World War II period and after the establishment of the OECD, specifically about the control of tax competition. Aiming to create common interests between countries and thus avoid new conflicts, the OECD stimulated the free international capital flows, including foreign direct investment – FDI. The OECD, however, in order to avoid abusive practices of international tax competition for FDI funding, has instituted since 1998, policies and recommendations suggesting a policy of greater transparency and exchange of tax information between countries. In this scenario, although Brazil is not an OECD member, but a relevant foreign investment recipient, is gradually adapting its tax legislation, seeking to adapt to the best tax practices recommended by the OECD, however there are still many challenges to be faced, as we shall see in this study. This thesis, the final product of this research, intends to be an essentially informative material, but that brings to its readers an objective view of the need for greater fiscal transparency and the adoption of best tax practices recommended by the OECD, towards a fairer tax competition among countries. It is also analyzed the tax legal changes that have occurred in Brazil as part of this global phenomenon, reflecting the specific nature of our reality. The concepts used in the research were subsidized by surveys on secondary sources, including literature, based on books, journals, dissertations or theses presented at universities, sites about these concepts, in addition to the researcher learning in the Doctorate courses
O objetivo desta pesquisa é elaborar um material teórico versando sobre os novos rumos da política tributária internacional, no período pós-Segunda Guerra Mundial e após a constituição da OCDE, especificamente quanto ao controle da competição tributária. Visando criar interesses comuns entre os países e, assim, evitar novos conflitos, houve o estímulo, pela OCDE, para o livre fluxo internacional de capitais, incluindo os investimentos estrangeiros diretos – IED. A OCDE, no entanto, com o objetivo de evitar práticas abusivas de competição tributária internacional para captação de IED, vem instituindo, desde 1998, recomendações sugerindo uma política de maior transparência e troca de informações tributárias entre os países. O Brasil, neste cenário, ainda que não membro da OCDE, mas receptor de relevantes investimentos estrangeiros, vem adequando paulatinamente sua legislação tributária, procurando adaptar-se às melhores práticas tributárias recomendadas pela OCDE, porém ainda com muitos desafios a serem enfrentados, como veremos neste estudo. Tal tese, produto final desta pesquisa, pretende constituir-se em um material essencialmente informativo, mas que traga a seus leitores uma visão objetiva acerca da necessidade de maior transparência fiscal e da adoção das melhores práticas tributárias recomendadas pela OCDE, em busca de uma competição tributária mais justa entre os países. Procura-se, também, posicionar as mudanças legislativas tributárias que têm ocorrido no Brasil como parte desse fenômeno global, refletindo as especificidades inerentes à nossa realidade.

Full textThe judge is a vital actor in the implementation of competition laws. Therefore, recognition should be given to the importance of its role. Recognizing the importance of the judge’s role in the implementation of antitrust laws means enhancing the role the judge is required to play to the effective implementation of competition laws. To enhance the role of the judge in the implementation of competition laws, the legislator and the judge must be proactive in taking legislative and judicial actions. Having acquired the mastery of economic reasoning in its approach to the competitive field, there is no objective reason that continues to relegate the role of the judge in second place compared to the competition authorities. Both institutions are competition authorities and one must not be qualified as "regulatory authority" at the expense of the other. To achieve this, attributing judicial caracteristics to the Competition Authorities by legislative and jurisprudential intervention is desirable by assigning them powers usually ascribed to the judge. For example, voiding of anticompetitive contracts, and awarding damages. The structure and functioning of the Competition Authorities are similar to those of a court. Moreover, some authors call them unacknowledged jurisdictions. There are no legal impediments and other examples as it is in the case "Commission Nationale de l'Informatique et des Libertés" (CNIL) which has been described as "tribunal" by the french Conseil d'Etat within the meaning of Article 6-1 of the ECHR, given its nature, its composition and its powers shows that it is possible to take the step, not only to restore the Judge of all the place it deserves in the implementation of antitrust laws, but also for the effective implementation of the given laws

Full textThe competitive analysis is focused on the gas industry, understood as the Local Distribution and Marketing activities. The researchs main objective is to contribute to identify strategic insights for large industrial consumers. Those consumers will face a new regulatory framework, which will require them to an eventual migration from a regulated to a more competitive market after the introduction of the Open Access regulation in the local gas distribution network in the State of Sao Paulo. The text also characterizes the possible environments for an effective competitive market and open access as well as for the consolidation of gas marketers. The work demonstrates the difficulty in establishing a more competitive environment in industries coexisting with dominant economic agents, which can influence all the dimensions underlined by the Six Competitive Forces theoretical model (adapted from Michael Porter). It is identified the supply and demand trends in the gas markets of Brazil and the State of Sao Paulo. Moreover, the work contributes with an extensive presentation of structural models and contractual arrangements that characterize the gas industries in different development stages. The aim is to show that the gas industry in Brazil, although still in its early development, has features which are already typical from more competitive markets, turning any analysis into a nontrivial exercise. The changes in the regulatory environment of the gas industry in Brazil and in the State of Sao Paulo are described in detail, with main focus on the relations between the Distribution and Marketing activities vis-à-vis the previous steps of the supply chain. As a result, the work offers alternative strategies for the positioning of large industrial consumers in a market still restricted in its competitive basis.

Full textThe French market, characterized especially by a strong segmentation, low sophistication of investors and a domination of banks, would not be competitive. On the theoretical side, we try to illustrate, using two simple models, the effects of a lack of competition. The first one highlights the role of competition in the creation of implicit incentives. The second one shows that the lack of competition leads to weak funds’ performance. Empirically, we verify firstly the existence of this lack of competition in the French market. Secondly, we show the existence of a conflict of interest between investors and funds. The lack of competition reflects by the fact that investors do not react strongly to funds’ performance and individual investors are not sensitive to fund fees. We also observe a price discrimination between institutional and individual investors. The latter pays more for lower return. However, the market begins to show some signs of competition. In fact, individual investors start to pay attention to the “price-quality” rapport. In addition, a greater degree of sophistication of institutional investors may explain the fact that we do not obtain any relation between fees and return in this segment. Indeed, these investors may be more sophisticated and could estimate the quality of a fund by more complex measures of performance. Finally, we provide evidence for the existence of a conflict of interest between investors and funds: diseconomies of scale

Full textConcerns for the public interest do not only shape the granting of industrial property rights, but also impose limitations on exploitation of such rights by owners and have an impact on how owners exercise their rights. The consideration of the public interest related to licensing of industrial property rights is not the same in Brazilian, French and European Union laws. Comparative study of the French and European practices in this field can be used to aid Brazilian lawyers in criticizing and considering new elements to challenge the current screening system of license agreements inBrazilian law, proposing the adoption of a contractual freedom-oriented system. This thesis undertakes an analysis of French and European Union laws, which allows us to take into consideration Brazilian competition law as a mechanism to control industrial property licenses without prejudice to public interest

Full textThis contribution focuses on the study of the significant imbalance under Article L. 442-1 of the French Commercial Code (formerly Article L. 442-6). The questions it raises are numerous: knowledge and specificity of the regulations in commercial relations, legitimacy of the text, internal coherence of its provisions and putting it into perspective in the global system for fighting the significant imbalance. To answer this question, it is necessary to combine two approaches, one analytical and the other synthetic. The first one is to highlight, by a scientific method previously described, the way in which judges deal with this text. The aim is to achieve a more precise and effective knowledge of the rule in question. Each of its components is therefore the subject of a detailed analysis, namely the concept as such and its system. The results obtained then make it possible to adopt a synthetic approach in order to better address the delicate question of the structure between, on the one hand, this article and, on the other hand, the other texts that sanction the significant imbalance. They also make it possible to propose ways of improving the current Article L. 442-1, particularly with a view to a forthcoming reform

Full textWhat role does the Marguerite Long International Music Competition play in the context of Cold War? In other words, how important is this culture transmission vector, where two piano traditions so contrasted as the French and Soviet piano schools confront each other on the basis of aesthetic matters? The aim of this thesis is to understand the mechanism of the Marguerite Long competition and its impact on piano playing, which significantly evolves from the 1950s until the late 1970s, influenced by the successes achieved by the Soviet-Russian piano school. The apparent link between music competitions and international politics is deconstructed to put an emphasis on cultural issues, which solely determine the list of award winners. The second part of this thesis consists in examining the particularity of both piano schools, comparing them to ascertain to what extent they mutually influence each other or distance themselves. Crucial aspects of Franco-Soviet cultural exchanges are taken into account, such as the full development of underground culture in the USSR from the mid-1960s. This study was conducted on a systematic analysis of six archival holdings, notably those kept by the Fonds Long of the Bibliothèque Mahler, the Long-Thibaud-Crespin Foundation, the Center of diplomatic archives in la Courneuve and archival sources regarding the A.L.A.P.

Full textThis thesis focuses on the development of the Shanghai port from 1843 to 1912, with a particular emphasis on the history of foreign enterprises established in Shanghai during this period. At a time when China is promoting its Belt and Road Initiative, aimed at expanding its global influence by assisting participating countries in developing their public infrastructure, including ports, it is interesting to reexamine the history of the development of the Shanghai port during the concession period. The foreign concessions in Shanghai and the private enterprises established there between 1843 and 1912 played a crucial role in the construction of the port, which later became a development model for other Chinese port cities. The city of Shanghai as we know it today has its foundations in this period. This thesis seeks to demonstrate how the commercial competition among foreign enterprises in Shanghai drove the development of its port. It explores the historical context, key stages of port construction, planning and management, as well as Western imperialism and the emergence of Chinese national consciousness

Full textAfter decades of adopting a protective and closed economic policy, Egypt has finally opted in 1991 for the market economy and the opening of its borders to international trade. However, an important aspect was missing ; the fight against cartels and market power in general. In 2005, Egypt has finally adopted its first competition law. Given the importance of Egypt at the regional and global levels, from both economic and political perspectives, it is timely to pay attention to the effectiveness of Egyptian competition law in order to evaluate its level of progress and its weaknesses and to propose methods and means of enhancement. This study is targeting issues and matters that are considered to be priorities: substantive, procedural and institutional rules aiming for fighting against cartels, abuse of dominance and mergers. The assessments and proposals set out in this study have been made in perspective of legal systems that have been chosen as reference: those of two developing countries (Brazil and South Africa) and those of developed countries (European Union, France and, alternatively, the United States). They also intend to benefit from the work of international organizations

Full textFrom 1960s to the end of the cold war, even beyond, the influence even the supremacy of France in the French-speaking territories in Sub-Saharan Africa is almost total. However, in this 21st century, the world competition in the research of new markets and the security of the energy supply leads inexorably the great powers to enter in “conflict of interests” by the mutual penetration of the “back-yards”. This is particularly true for France which has countries such as the United States, China, India, Brazil, Turkey, the Gulf Arab States, etc., to make a dramatic entrance in a geographical area where she judged it for a long time as her “exclusive domain” considering the historical, linguistic and political links. These new challenges and issues for the African policy of France are measured from now on, in the light of the transformations at work in the world with the globalization and the emergence of new powers of the South. The challenges and the issues are important for the external action of France and its place in the World, considering the fierce competition between new stakeholders and the ongoing African society changes. Nevertheless it still has economic, diplomatic and strategic assets which enable him to elaborate, thanks to the francophone cultural center, an original project, ambitious and promising. With this aim in mind, it will be necessary to answer to the two following questions: How to reform this traditional policy based on close and privileged relationships with African leaders without compromising, however, the comparative advantages of France on the spot? Which political strategy has to be implemented in order to identify the real common interests of the French and the French-speaking Africans, by taking into account the opportunities and threats, and to develop them in a mutually beneficial partnership?

The ideological scramble for Africa tells the story of an international competition between the US, France, Ghana and the UK. Against the background of rising Soviet interests, these countries worked to convince leaders and peoples in Sub-Saharan Africa of their pan-African, capitalist and imperial plans. Between 1953 and 1963, Africa’s position in the international system was not primarily determined by the struggle between the USSR and the US. African leaders did not simply play off the Cold war superpowers against each other to extract gains. Kwame Nkrumah, the leader of Ghana, projected his own pan-African ideology to other parts of the continent. What was at stake in this scramble were the so-called ‘minds’ of African peoples. Nkrumah blamed colonialism for instilling non-white populations with an inferiority complex, while policy makers in the West drew on the insights of ethno-psychology to argue that underdevelopment was a psychological problem. To develop men into the modern mindset or, conversely, to create an ‘African Personality’, policymakers relied on education and information media. When other African statesmen were unwilling to support Ghana’s pan-African vision, Nkrumah’s public discourse became more stridently anticolonial, in an attempt to mobilise the African general public. With the atrocities of the Congo crisis in mind, President John F. Kennedy and the Europeans began to see anticolonial nationalism as an emotional response to the tensions that came out of the modernisation process. Western officials therefore decided to modernise the socio-economic structures of ‘emerging’ societies, since psychological modernisation had failed. Those shifting views on African development profoundly influenced the way in which the Bandung Conference, the Suez Crisis, the independence of Ghana, the Sahara atomic bomb tests and the Congo crisis were understood. As a whole, this analysis presents a sharp departure from a narrative in which non-Western actors are depicted as subaltern agents who can only resist or utilise Cold War pressures. It seeks to address the broader question of why pan-Africanism ultimately failed to become a fully developed interventionist ideology, capable of rivalling communist and capitalist proscriptions for African development.
