“…Explanatory variables are the index scores of the various cultural dimensions obtained from the Hofstede databank [91]. The regression models also include output (GDP) per capita at constant USD prices [92] as a suggested control variable to reduce model specification error [93] and to follow Hofstede's recommendations [56]. The descriptive statistics of the variables are reported in Table 1.…”

Electric vehicles (EVs) have become a symbol of the fight against climate change. However, in many countries, the market development of EVs is sluggish, and adoption rates greatly vary worldwide. This study examines the impact of Hofstede’s six dimensions of national culture on the development of the electric car market using sales data from 2019 and 2020 in 21 OECD countries. Results of (OLS) linear regression analyses show that uncertainty avoidance, individualism, masculinity, and indulgence have a significantly negative impact on the sales of battery electric cars, while long-term orientation positively influences their market share. The results indicate that national culture is an important cross-country factor that influences the rate and direction of the adoption electric cars. The research also explains how cultural values are translated into the purchase of EVs and provides marketers and policymakers with an insight into how they can increase the spread of alternative-fuel vehicles.

“…An assessment of energy consumption in the Visegrad countries revealed changes in energy consumption, productivity and sectoral structure (Gostkowski et al, 2021). The manufacturing sector was identified as critical for economic growth and was described as a driver of growth (Meyer & Hassan, 2020).…”

In our research we look at the efficiency of public service delivery. The Covid19 pandemic in 2020 and the Russian-Ukrainian conflict in 2022 challenge not only profit-oriented corporations but also budget-based organizations. The sustainable operation of municipal undertaking is of paramount importance, as municipalities manage public funds, and their activities have an impact on society as a whole. The aim of the study is to examine the liquidity and profitability situation and capital structure of municipal companies in the Visegrad countries. The method of analysis consists in categorising the indicators based on the literature and presenting the distribution of these data. The study is based on panel data from 2017 to 2021. An important finding of the study is that Czech companies have the best governance indicators of all the countries studied.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a significant source of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and plays a crucial role in climate change and global warming. This study aims to explain the effects of primary and renewable energy supplies and environmental taxation and to analyse how taxation can alter their direct effects on carbon intensity. The research was conducted using a generalized method of moments model that uses instrumental variables with two-stage (2SGMM) estimators to calculate the direct and moderating effects of environmental taxes on carbon intensity. This study confirms the EKC theorem, and results have shown that primary energy supply and environmental-related taxation positively contribute to carbon intensity. The second finding indicates that a major increase in the proportion of renewable energy will greatly slow the rate of carbon dioxide emissions. The study provides additional evidence concerning the moderating role of taxation in amplifying the impacts of primary and renewable energy supply. The empirical findings suggest that the taxation impact is more fiscal than an incentive. In addition to the current energy and economic crisis, considerable funding and fiscal policies are needed to achieve more sustainable development paths towards carbon neutrality and energy security.
