“…The study period is chosen due to data availability and it equally falls within the period of time that Cameroon started exploiting crude oil. We capture economic growth by GDP per capita growth in annual percentage (gdpc), such a measure has been used within literature ([ [67] , [68] , [69] , [70] ]). Renewable natural resource rents are proxied by Forest rents as a percentage of GDP (rnr) and non-renewable natural resource is proxied by Oil rents as a percentage of GDP (nrnr) in line with [ 71 ].…”

“…Previous researches confirmed that increased investment inflows will result in the poverty alleviation. Agarwal and Atri (2017), Dinga (2023), Topalli et al (2021), Ucal (2014), and Wang et al (2022) revealed that the investment influenced the poverty. However, Shastri et al (2022) argued that the investment had little or no effect on the poverty.…”

The purpose of this study is to examine determinants of poverty in regencies/cities in Central Java. This study examined poverty, investment, savings, and infrastructure as the research variables by focusing on the vicious cycle of poverty. The data was obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics in Central Java. The data was analyzed using the System-Generalized Method of Moments (SYS-GMM) model using a dynamic panel data model. The results show that both investment and infrastructure negatively and significantly impact poverty. However, saving has a positive and low significant impact on poverty. It was interesting to note that the disparity in savings ownership contributes to the high poverty level. These findings contribute to the government's efforts to alleviate poverty in the regencies/cities in Central Java. Our findings also provide valuable insights into poverty dynamics in Indonesia.

“…Finally, sustainable development and the role of social media (of text mining on the Scopus database and/or of network analysis) using the natural language processing (NLP) [the latent semantic analysis (LSA) and the network analysis] as done for sustainable marketing [for industrial revolution and environmental sustainability and for the green human resource management] by Dash et al (2023) 3. Ecological deficit or ecological poverty measure and investigation have been given little or no consideration within the literature (Gildas, 2023). Gildas (2023) proposed a new approach to measure ecological poverty by computing the difference between EF and biocapacity.…”

“…First, it will be interesting to investigate the direct and indirect effects of some other macroeconomic indicators. Second, to achieve this MEQ 35,3 goal, the study can rather be based on a new measure for environment degradation as the ecological deficit or the ecological poverty [by computing the difference between EF and biocapacity as recently proposed in Gildas (2023)].…”

PurposeThis study attempts to come in help for Morocco by investigating rigorously the linkage between environmental degradation, measured by ecological footprint (EF), and the gross domestic product growth (EG), the human capital (HC) index and the natural resources (NR) depletion over the period of 1980:Q1 to 2021:Q1. The paper examines the validity of environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) hypothesis in the Moroccan context.Design/methodology/approachUnlike previous studies, which are based only on the autoregressif dynamic linear (ARDL) model, this paper investigates two recent models: the novel DYNARDL simulation approach and the Kernel-based regularized least squares (KRLS) technics and uses in addition the frequency domain causality (FDC) test.FindingsModels output say a significant and negative association between HC and the EF and a significant and positive interplay between economic growth and environmental quality in the long term. In the short term, findings reveal a significant and negative association between NR and the EF. Based on the FDC test, results conclude about a unidirectional causality from NR to the EF in short-, medium-, and long-term. Moreover, results validate the EKC hypothesis for the Moroccan environment sustainability.Originality/valueIn this study, the researchers use the “ecological footprint” as dependent variable to obtain more accurate and comprehensive assessment of environmental deterioration. Based on time series data investigations, this study is the first paper, which validates the EKC hypothesis and develops important policy implications for Morocco context to achieve sustainable development targets.
