At The Cross Roads: Us / Mexico Border Counties In Transition, Dennis L. Soden
At The Cross Roads: Us / Mexico Border Counties In Transition, Dennis L. Soden
IPED Technical Reports
In 1998, former Texas Comptroller John Sharp published Bordering the Future: Challenge and Opportunity in the Texas Border Region,which provided an assessment of the economic, political, and social condition of the Texas border counties. This report, commissioned by the US / Mexico Border Counties Coalition, extends those findings to all of the 24 U.S. counties that are contiguous with Mexico. As a region, if these 24 counties were the 51st state, how would they compare with the rest of the nation?
Population Growth And Trade Policies In The Philippines: A General Equilibrium Analysis, Luz C. Stenberg
Population Growth And Trade Policies In The Philippines: A General Equilibrium Analysis, Luz C. Stenberg
Business Papers and Journal Articles
The paper attempts to show using a computable general equilibrium (CGE) framework the relative effects of population growth and trade policies on economic growth, employment and deforestation in the Philippines. A static CGE model based on ORANI with an appended sub-forestry model is employed in the analysis. The results show that (domestic) population per se would not significantly increase deforestation. Whilst, export taxes are ineffective tools in reducing deforestation, trade liberalisation policies are beneficial to the economy as a whole.

This paper examines the trade relationship between Australia and South Africa to assess if it is justifiable to establish a FTA between these two countries. The paper uses the cointegration analysis to examine the long-term trade relationship between these two countries. The results suggest that Australian-South African trade has unique features which indicate that its growth is not just a reflection of overall world trade. The paper also uses a simultaneous equations model to test if there are significant feedback effects in Australian trade with South Africa. The results suggest that intensification of the trade relationship would be beneficial to …
Long-Term Relationship Between Intra-Trade And Total Trade Of Member Countries Of Asean, Nelson Perera, Mokhtar M. Metwally
Long-Term Relationship Between Intra-Trade And Total Trade Of Member Countries Of Asean, Nelson Perera, Mokhtar M. Metwally
Faculty of Commerce - Papers (Archive)
This paper uses cointegration and regression analyses to examine the long-term relationship between intra-trade of the five original member countries of ASEAN, namely, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, and Thailand , and their total trade with non- member Countries of ASEAN. The LR tests based on maximal eigenvalue of the stochastic matrix and the trace of the stochastic matrix suggest that the null hypothesis of no cointegration cannot be rejected for all the five original members countries of ASEAN. Thus, there is no evidence of long-term relationship between intra-trade of each ASEAN member with other members and total trade with non-ASEAN …
