Introduction To Research Methodologies, Professor Issam A.W. Mohamed
Professor Issam A.W. Mohamed
In this book, I introduce basics of research methodologies in Arabic language which I believe is an unprecedented step. The conceptions, research frameworks, sampling and some detailed methods are given in this text book. Moreover, some analytical statistical methods are introduced to give insights to researchers. Methods of writing the scientific reports and papers in addition to documentation of references and classifying the required logical process of a thesis are detailed in this text. I introduce this book that was published by the Africa International University in Khartoum, Sudan for the purpose of helping sub and post graduate university students …

Further Evidence On Revenue Decentralization And Inflation, John Thornton
Further Evidence On Revenue Decentralization And Inflation, John Thornton
John Thornton
Results from a panel regression study of 19 OECD member countries suggest that when the measure of revenue decentralization is limited to the revenues over which sub-national governments have full autonomy, its impact on inflation is not statistically significant.

Nonparametric Estimation Of A Hedonic Price Function, Christopher Parmeter, Daniel Hnederson
Christopher F. Parmeter
Rosen’s (1974) theory of hedonic prices is implemented econometrically using recently developed nonparametric techniques to examine the influence of qualitative factors on the price of a house. Our ability to smooth categorical variables leads to greater generalization in the valuation process and provides a canvas for interactions between categorical and continuous variables that is difficult to exploit in parametric and semiparametric models. This is illustrated with a replication of a previously used partially linear model specification.

Environmental Effects Of Intensification Of Agriculture: Livestock Production And Regulation, Ujjayant N. Chakravorty, Donna K. Fisher, Chieko Umetsu
Environmental Effects Of Intensification Of Agriculture: Livestock Production And Regulation, Ujjayant N. Chakravorty, Donna K. Fisher, Chieko Umetsu
Ujjayant Chakravorty
This article deals with the relationship between industrialization of agriculture and the environment in developing countries. We specifically focus on livestock production and regulation. We develop a simple economic framework to demonstrate the effect of location on intensification of industrial activity in farming, and discuss this issue in the context of urbanization and economic growth in developing countries. Policy implications of the model are discussed in light of the experience of developed countries in regulating livestock pollution and other externalities. We argue that environmental problems from agricultural industrialization in developing countries may pose major challenges. In the case of livestock …

Innovation And Productivity In European Industries, Mario Pianta, Andrea Vaona
Mario Pianta
The labour productivity impact of innovation is investigated in this paper combining neo-Schumpeterian insights on the variety of innovation with the importance of industrial structures and firm size; two models are proposed for explaining productivity and export success in European manufacturing industries and firm-size classes. The empirical estimates are based on data from the European innovation survey (CIS 2), covering Austria, France, Italy, the Netherlands, and the UK, broken down by 22 sectors and for large, medium, and small firms. The econometric results, obtained adopting cross-sectional estimation methodologies able to account for unobserved industrial characteristics, show that productivity in Europe …

Demand And Innovation In European Industries, Mario Pianta, Francesco Crespi
Mario Pianta
After the decade-old debate between demand-pull and technology-push perspectives, demand seems to have fallen out of fashion. In this paper two models are proposed on the determinants of general innovative activities and on the market impact of product innovations. The models combine the supply and demand engines of innovation, and qualify the type of innovative efforts, distinguishing between those oriented towards cost reductions or towards technological competitiveness. The models are tested at the industry level for 22 manufacturing sectors and 17 services sectors in six European countries. The results show that efforts at technological competitiveness, product oriented strategies and the …

Commercio Con L'Estero E Tecnologia In Italia Negli Anni Cinquanta E Sessanta, Mario Pianta, Matteo Gamellini
Mario Pianta
Il commercio con l’estero ha svolto un ruolo centrale nello sviluppo economico italiano del secondo dopoguerra. Il rapido aumento dell’export ha contribuito all’accelerazione dei tassi di crescita dell’economia, ha stimolato le attività tecnologiche, ha disegnato l’orientamento della struttura produttiva italiana e la sua collocazione sui mercati europei e internazionali. La crescita impetuosa delle importazioni ha permesso l’acquisizione dall’estero di conoscenze e beni essenziali per il paese. Negli anni Cinquanta e Sessanta l’Italia assume le caratteristiche di un’economia aperta, segnata dall’importanza della domanda estera e della competitività internazionale: si delineano in questo periodo aspetti destinati a diventare una caratteristica permanente dell’economia …

Industria, Mario Pianta
Mario Pianta
Le trasformazioni dell'economia hanno al centro il ruolo dell'industria, che nei primi anni del 21° secolo è stata caratterizzata da processi di innovazione tecnologica, di internazionalizzazione della produzione e di diffusione delle attività industriali in numerosi Paesi in via di sviluppo. Nei Paesi più avanzati e in Italia tali processi hanno portato a una concentrazione del controllo di produzioni svolte su scala internazionale, a una forte crescita delle attività finanziarie, a una progressiva deindustrializzazione, con il calo dell'occupazione nel settore e la crescita del peso dei servizi.

Saving, Investment And Capital Mobility In African Countries, John Thornton, Olumuyiwa S. Adedeji
Saving, Investment And Capital Mobility In African Countries, John Thornton, Olumuyiwa S. Adedeji
John Thornton
Recently developed panel co-integration techniques are applied to data for six African countries to test the Feldstein–Horioka approach to measuring capital mobility. The results suggest three conclusions: savings and investment in panel data are non-stationary series and they are co-integrated; capital was relatively mobile in the African countries during 1970–2000, with estimated savings–retention ratios of 0.73 (FMOLS), 0.45 (DOLS), 0.51 (DOLS with heterogeneity) and 0.39 (DOLS with cross-sectional dependence effects); and there was a marked drop in the savings–retention ratio from 1970–85 to 1986–2000. The results could be interpreted as indicating that capital mobility in African countries has increased, reflecting …
The Relationship Between Inflation And Inflation Uncertainty In Emerging Market Economies, John Thornton
The Relationship Between Inflation And Inflation Uncertainty In Emerging Market Economies, John Thornton
John Thornton
A standard Generalized Autoregressive Conditional Heteroskedastic (q,v) model is employed to construct a measure of monthly intlation uncertainty in 12 emerging market economies, and the relationship between inflation and inflation uncertainty is examined using Granger causality tests. The results suggest that higher inflation rates increased inflation uncertainty in all the economies, providing strong support for the Friedman hypothesis. The evidence on the effect of inflation uncertainty on average monthly inflation is more mixed, with increased inflation uncertainty leading to lower average inflation in Colombia. Israel. Mexico, and Turkey, consistent with the Holland hypothesis, but to higher average intlation in Hungary. …
Fiscal Decentralization And Economic Growth Reconsidered, John Thornton
Fiscal Decentralization And Economic Growth Reconsidered, John Thornton
John Thornton
Recent studies examining the relation between fiscal decentralization and economic growth have failed to take account of the extent of the independent taxing powers available to sub-national governments and thus have substantially overstated the degree of effective decentralization. Results from a cross section study of 19 OECD member countries suggest that when the measure of fiscal decentralization is limited to the revenues over which sub-national governments have full autonomy, its impact on economic growth is not statistically significant.
