“…The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) divides the manufacturing industry into high-end technology, mid-high-end technology, mid-end technology, and low-end technology according to the different technological levels contained in the manufacturing industry. The industrial upgrading structure of the manufacturing industry is a process of transferring from low-end manufacturing to mid-end, mid-high-end, and then high-end manufacturing [ 35 ].…”

Following decades of reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation industry, most car companies will stop producing petrol cars and promote the development of new energy vehicles in the near future, even in China. This study is based on energy vehicle exports using China’s 31 provinces’ panel data from 2010 to 2020. Considering that China mainly engages in processing trade, this study analyzes the domestic energy vehicle’s export sophistication after deleting intermediate goods, measuring the relationship between export sophistication and industrial upgrading with static and dynamic panel models. Then, heterogeneity tests were deployed to examine the domestic export sophistication of three major economic belts partition. The results revealed that improving export sophistication is conducive to realizing China’s industrial upgrading. China’s new energy vehicles industry is positively affected by export sophistication, R&D, foreign direct investment, average GDP growth rate, market factors, and human resources over the long run. Regarding regional stratification, domestic export sophistication in the eastern and western regions has more significant effects on promoting industrial upgrading than in the central region. In particular, in western regions, every increase in export sophistication by one unit will bring a significant industrial upgrading effect. Given this, China’s new energy vehicles should increase export sophistication to help the country’s industrial upgrading.

“…Export channel. From the perspective of export products, export trade upgrading implies a shift from resource‐ and labor‐intensive to technology‐intensive export products (Chrid et al, 2021). Factor proportions theory states that the abundance of production factors determines a country's type of export and import, which in turn determines its comparative advantage in international trade.…”

Labor market distortion is ceaselessly endangering the balance among economic efficiency, social equity, and environmental quality sought by inclusive green growth and sustainable development. This study develops an innovative evaluation system to measure China's inclusive green growth by using provincial panel data from 2004 to 2020. Three dimensions are covered, including economic development, social equity and welfare, and green sustainability. Static and dynamic panel econometric models are employed to investigate the effect of labor market distortion on inclusive green growth and the potential transmission channels. The spatial econometric model is further applied to study the spatial spillover effect of labor market distortion on inclusive green growth. The results indicate that labor market distortion negatively affects inclusive green growth. Technological innovation, industrial structure optimization, and export trade upgrading are transmission channels of the impact of labor market distortion on inclusive green growth. In addition to hindering local inclusive green growth, labor market distortion also decreases neighboring inclusive green growth through the spatial spillover effect. These conclusions suggest that removing distortion in the labor market and emphasizing the role of market mechanisms in labor allocation may provide a new perspective to help move toward inclusive green growth for sustainable development.

“…Table 1 details a brief description, measure, and source of the data. Since the literature has identified that the effects of a variable can change considerably between different groups of countries according to their income or development level (Chrid et al, 2020;Ortiz et al, 2019), the 76 countries are classified based on the income level of the countries, and following the World Bank Atlas method of year 2020, which classifies countries into four groups: High, Upper-Middle, Lower-Middle, and Low-Income. This classification has been widely used in previous research (Alvarado et al, 2020;Chrid et al, 2020;Wang et al, 2018).…”

Does tourism activity reduce the size of the informal economy? Capturing long-term heterogeneous linkages around the world

et al. 2021

This paper investigates the long-term and causal relationship between tourism activity and the informal economy in 76 countries from 1995 to 2015. We explore this relationship at the global level and by country group, using panel, co-integration techniques that indicate the existence of a long-run co-integration relationship between tourism and informal economy for the whole sample and at the level of country groups. Additionally, the paper analyzes the long-run coefficients of the model by using fully modified ordinary least square regressions (FMOLS). The results from FMOLS evidence a negative and significant impact of tourism on the informal economy at the global level and in high, upper-middle, and lower-middle income countries, but a positive link in low-income countries. However, the results reveal a heterogeneous long-run relationship within country groups. Also, the result of the Dumitrescu-Hurlin Granger causality test indicates bidirectional causality in the global sample, but the direction of causality varies by country group. The main policy implication derived from our findings suggests that in order to reduce the size of informal economy, policy-makers should foster tourism activities.
