摘要

摘要使用应用于31个国家样本的八个横截面计量经济学模型，我们发现，尽管新冠肺炎的病死率（CFR）是由大流行前给出的“结构性”变量（医疗基础设施、合并症、贫困和人类发展指数）解释的，对危机的“反应”变量（财政支持、卫生政策，最重要的是政府的叙述）是疫情演变的决定性因素。我们表明，代表民粹主义国家的虚拟变量是显著的，这表明，正如Shiller（2017）所说，叙事在塑造行为和经济结果方面发挥着重要作用。

Mexico: the populism/COVID-19 syndemic

ABSTRACT Using eight cross-section econometric models applied to a sample of 31 countries, we find that, although the Case Fatality Ratio (CFR) of COVID-19 is explained by ‘structural’ variables that were given prior to the pandemic (healthcare infrastructure, comorbidities, poverty and the HDI), the ’response’ variables to the crisis (fiscal support, health policy, and, above all, government narrative) have been determinant in the evolution of the pandemic. We show that the dummy variable representing populist countries is significant, demonstrating that, as Shiller (2017) stated, narrative plays a major role in shaping behavior and economic outcomes.

期刊介绍： International Review of Applied Economics is devoted to the practical applications of economic ideas. Applied economics is widely interpreted to embrace empirical work and the application of economics to the evaluation and development of economic policies. The interaction between empirical work and economic policy is an important feature of the journal. The Journal is peer reviewed and international in scope. Articles that draw lessons from the experience of one country for the benefit of others, or that seek to make cross-country comparisons are particularly welcomed. Contributions which discuss policy issues from theoretical positions neglected in other journals are also encouraged.
