La pobreza en #AmLat y el #Caribe tiene un rostro claro: trabajadores con baja escolaridad y sin acceso al mercado forma, lo que frena el crecimiento de los salarios y la productividad. Conoce otros datos claves de nuestro panorama económico: wrld.bg/i93G50YFO9C

The impact from the Middle East war goes beyond energy. Trade routes are shifting and costs—from shipping to fertilizers—are rising. Carefully calibrated policies can help manage the shock and maintain resilience: imf.org/en/blogs/artic…

Hormuz disruption is hitting fertilizer -- and agrifood systems next. Sri Lanka is cut off from suppliers. Egypt’s bread subsidy is under strain. Latin America faces over 7% cereal income losses. Stabilize markets, reroute trade, support farmers and import-dependent nations.

For decades, peer review has been treated as the gold standard of scientific validation. Yet many scientists know the reality: the system is far from perfect. Peer review is broken and sometimes even corrupted. The process can be slow, inconsistent, and vulnerable to bias. Reviewers are sometimes asked to judge work outside their true expertise. In other cases, they may be evaluating ideas that challenge the very paradigm in which they were trained. And occasionally, reviewers are simply competitors. Ironically, the most prestigious journals can also be the most conservative. Truly new ideas are often met with skepticism, while safer work that fits the current narrative moves more easily through the system. Increasingly, papers are judged less by the originality of the idea and more by the volume of data, the sophistication of statistics, and the beauty of the figures. Science risks becoming data-rich but idea-poor. But there is an important reality to remember: journals do not ultimately decide the impact of scientific work. Impact is decided later, by the community. By the scientists who read it, test it, debate it, and cite it. In the end, citations and ideas determine the legacy of a paper, not the impact factor of the journal that first published it. Science has always advanced by questioning assumptions. Perhaps it is time we also question the system that filters scientific ideas.

El salto tecnológico de China ya se ve en sus exportaciones. Baterías, coches y chips ganan peso. Retroceden sectores intensivos en trabajo: textil, juguetes o muebles. Una fábrica cada vez menos intensiva en mano de obra.
