Rural tourism typology
I'm currently working on a development of rural tourism typology. The purpose is to describe four different ideal types of rural tourists, from enology, adventure, family to mindfulness. We are constructing this typology wondering what these four ideal type tourists demand.
Income Distribution
In what concerns to income distribution I'm concerned with the study of the conditions and factors that creates more unequal societies compared with others. I'm currently working on a project to study the effects of international trade and openness of the economy with Income distribution.
Integration of Energy Markets
Lately I've been focusing my research in the effects of the integration of Energy Markets, particularly in efficiency changes in electricity producing plants as well as changes in prices of electricity for households and industrial consumers.
Energy Transition
My interest in energy markets actually originates in the phenomenon known as energy transition, that is, the more extense and intense use of renewable energies and abandonment of fossil fuels as a preferential source of energy.
Labour markets
Some of the richer economies in the world, particularly in Southern Europe exhibit some of the highest rates of unemployment in the world. Beyond common knowledge I personally think that there is a lot to study about causes of high rates of unemployment in some European countries and what can be done to change it.
