Stuff Soledad Aragón Is Bringing Mexico City's Domestic Workers Out of the Shadows Soledad Aragón is the Employment Secretary of the recently installed Mexico City government who has been in the job since early 2019. As we talk in her downtown office, a nanny sits in the back room with her infant son. This is her first position in public office; she is not a career politician — her efforts to integrate the demands of mothering with her new responsibilities are genuine. They are also a logical extension of her academic interests since entering university, where she earned an undergraduate degree, followed by a master’s and a Ph.D. in employment-related studies.

The mangrove-fringed coast of Guyana, at the north-eastern tip of South America, does not immediately bring to mind the Highlands of Scotland, in the northernmost part of Great Britain. Guyana’s mudflats and silty brown coastal water have little in common with the lush green mountains and glens of the Highlands. If these landscapes share anything, it is their remoteness – one on the edge of a former empire burnished by the relentless equatorial sun and one on the edge of Europe whipped mercilessly by the Atlantic winds.
But look closer and the links are there: Alness, Ankerville, Belladrum, Borlum, Cromarty, Culcairn, Dingwall, Dunrobin, Fyrish, Glastullich, Inverness, Kintail, Kintyre, Rosehall, Tain, Tarlogie, a join-the-dots list of placenames (30 in all) south of Guyana’s capital Georgetown that hint of a hidden association with the Scottish Highlands some 5,000 miles away.... |

LATIN AMERICAN ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
Latin America's prospects cut with activity seen remaining sluggish overall in 2019
Latin America’s economy is seen improving this year due to a faster recovery in Brazil and a smaller drag from Argentina. However, prospects were cut this month and activity is seen staying sluggish overall, weighed on by slowing exports and high uncertainty. Political risk, especially in Argentina in the run-up to elections, and concerns over fiscal accounts cloud the outlook. Latin America is projected to grow 2.1% in 2019, down 0.1 percentage points from last month's forecast. For 2020, Latin America is expected to grow 2.5%. The Other Panama Panama is more than the Panama Papers and offshore business. Thanks to the leaks known as the Panama Papers, Panama now finds itself in the middle of a global storm over revelations of famous politicians and business people that have used offshore companies both in Panama and other locations in what appears to be – in many cases, but not all -- efforts to evade taxes in their home countries. However, Panama is more than an offshore company center. In fact, it is Latin America’s leading regional business hub. Companies such as Denmark-based Maersk (the world’s largest shipping company), Germany-based sportswear giant Adidas, US-food products company Mars and Switzerland-based packaged food company Nestle have set up Latin American headquarters there, while US-based Caterpillar (the world's largest manufacturer of construction and mining machinery) moved its regional training center from Miami to Panama to avoid the problems of delayed US visas for its clients in the region. |
