Increasing industrial activities trigger the intense use of fossil fuels and increase the number of carbon emissions in the atmosphere. Countries with a high share in current carbon emissions need to expand their use of renewable energy sources. Canada is an important energy producer and consumer globally. In this regard, its decisions are important for the future development of global emissions. This study examines the asymmetric effects of economic growth, renewable energy, and non-renewable energy consumption on carbon emissions in Canada from 1965 to 2017. In the first stage of the analysis, unit root testing was performed for the variables. For this, Lee-Strazicich (2003), ADF and PP unit root tests were used. The nonlinear ARDL method was used to analyze the relationship between variables. and Measures: In order to analyze the relationship between the variables in the established model, renewable energy consumption (%), non-renewable energy consumption (%), and carbon emissions (per capita-Mt). In addition, the economic growth (constant price 2010- US$) parameter was added to the model as a control variable. The findings support that energy consumption, economic growth, and renewable energy have an asymmetric effect on carbon emissions in the long run. The positive shock in renewable energy reduces carbon emissions, and a unit increase in renewable energy reduces carbon emissions by 1.29%. Besides, the negative shock in economic growth greatly deteriorates the quality of the environment; that is, a 1% reduction in economic growth causes emissions to increase by 0.74% in the long run. On the other hand, positive shocks in energy consumption have a positive and significant effect on carbon emissions. A 1% increase in energy consumption causes 1.69% carbon emissions. There are important policy implications for Canada to eliminate carbon emissions, increase the share of renewable energy sources and achieve its economic growth targets. In addition, Canada needs to reduce its consumption of non-renewable energy (such as gasoline coal, diesel, and natural gas).
In this study, the validity of the Linder Hypothesis has been tested based on export and import intensity of foreign trade flows between Turkish economy and selected Transition Countries. According to this hypothesis, the more similar the demand structures and per capita income levels of countries, the more they will trade with one another. The hypothesis uses the difference between the per capita income of countries engaged in foreign trade as the main parameter and indicates that a fall in income difference between two countries increases the validity of the Linder hypothesis by increasing the intensity of foreign trade of the countries. The study considers selected Transition Countries having rising share of foreign trade with Turkey during the period 2001-2017 to examine the validity of Linder Hypothesis in the context of foreign trade flows employing Gravity Models that shows "Aggregate Linder Demand Effect" and panel data analysis. Test results does not support Linder hypothesis in terms of export and import intensity of foreign trade flows between Turkish economy and selected Transition Countries during 2001-2017, rather factor endowment does matter for inter-industry foreign trade.
Yükselen Piyasa Ekonomileri içerisinde önemli bir konuma sahip olan ve 2010 yılı itibariyle uygulamaya koyduğu Yeni Ekonomi Model (NEM) ile yaklaşık olarak kırk yıldır sürdürmekte olduğu İhracata Dayalı Büyüme modeli uygulamalarını güçlendirmeyi hedefleyen Malezya ekonomisi, bu çalışmanın araştırma konusunu oluşturmaktadır. NEM uygulamaları Malezya ekonomisinin yenilik üretme kapasitesini artırmaya ve desteklemeye yönelik ilave politikalarla zayıflama işaretleri gösteren ihracata dayalı büyüme sürecini yeniden hızlandırma ve bir üst uygulamaya dönüştürmeyi hedeflemektedir. Malezya ekonomisinde yaşanan gelişmeler, gerek kendisi gerekse benzeri modelleri uygulayan diğer ülkeler için de büyük önem taşımaktadır. Çalışmada 1960-2019 dönemleri ele alınarak, ihracata dayalı büyüme hipotezinin geçerli olup olmadığı sınanmıştır. Yapılan Eş bütünleşme testi sonucunda, değişkenler arasında uzun dönemli ilişki olduğu tespit edilirken, nedensellik analizinin sonuçları; Malezya'da ihracata dayalı büyüme hipotezinin geçerliliğini ortaya koymaktadır.
The growing levels of external debt in developing countries are increasingly a worldwide problem, particularly in Sub-Saharan African countries, where the expanding portfolio of foreign debts, debt servicing rates, and debt overhang cause alarm and global concern. The likelihood of relatively good outcomes of the interaction between external debt and economic growth is based on the government's attempts to maintain a sustainable debt-to-GDP ratio, a low budget deficit, and that the external debt is utilized primarily for capital investments. Under other conditions, the government would confront a circumstance in which accumulated foreign debt levels stifle economic progress, particularly when debt levels rise over time and are poorly managed. In this context, this study aims to examine the association between foreign debt and economic growth in Sub Sahara African countries during the period from 1980 to 2019. The study employed the Dynamic Panel Threshold Regression analysis to investigate the differential impact of foreign debt on economic growth below and above a threshold. The empirical results highlight the existence of a nonlinear relationship between foreign debt on economic growth above the debt threshold during the examined period. Empirical evidence suggests significant policy prescriptions; Sub Sahara African governments should use solid methods of generating domestic income to supplement outside sources of funding, such as the inclusion of domestic informal businesses on a shared cutting-edge platform to ensure successful domestic revenue collection.
When the empirical studies in the literature on inflation and interest relation are examined, it can be seen that a positive or negative change in one of these two variables has a significant effect on the other variable. This situation reveals the necessity of evaluating the relationship between variables within the framework of cause and effect. In this study, the relationship between inflation, interest rates, showing similar macroeconomic structures Turkey, Indonesia and Brazil the country for the period 1985-2018 using annual data sets separately for each country were explained by the VAR model. The results showed only right way for Turkey to reciprocate the nominal rate of inflation variables for Indonesia and Brazil were found bidirectional causality between countries.
