Using GLSS 7 and spatial data, this study reveals that poverty in Ghana is heavily concentrated in the northern regions and is significantly driven by deficits in road networks and access to health facilities, thereby advocating for targeted infrastructure investments to bridge the north-south welfare divide.
This paper introduces an ex ante diagnostic framework demonstrating that while volume-conserving Transferable Development Rights (TDR) schemes in Seoul have negligible impacts on overall metropolitan correlation, the specific geometry of designation zones critically determines the extent to which urban residual dependence networks are reshaped.
This paper argues that global income convergence is not solely driven by poorer economies catching up, but can also result from richer economies with income levels exceeding their fundamentals slowing down and falling back, a phenomenon often masked by conventional statistics that only measure narrowing distances.
This study utilizes a novel Z-number grey-based RANCOM method to identify underdeveloped border areas and weak regional planning as the primary obstacles to Iran's regional development, recommending enhanced planning culture, coordination, and data systems to achieve more balanced growth.
This study utilizes an extended UTAUT model to analyze 534 financially disadvantaged Malaysian Gen Z respondents, revealing that while digital financial literacy levels are high and driven by performance expectancy and social influence, these competencies surprisingly exert a significant negative impact on household wealth, highlighting a critical disconnect between digital adoption and financial outcomes among vulnerable youth.
This study proposes a physically grounded framework that reinterprets economic inflation as an imbalance between financial expansion and real productive capacity by introducing four dimensionless "inflation moments" derived from monetary aggregates and GDP, which successfully model inflation dynamics across diverse global economies and historical crises.
This study utilizes panel data from 50 Indian firms (2022–2024) and a Fixed Effects model to demonstrate that gender diversity in corporate leadership significantly enhances environmental sustainability performance, evidenced by reduced carbon emissions and improved resource efficiency, while firm size and CSR spending also positively influence these outcomes.
This study finds that while Japan's public debt does not directly drive economic growth or significantly support its green transition, the effectiveness of public borrowing depends critically on how debt-financed expenditures are allocated toward productive green investments like renewable energy and low-carbon technology.
This paper demonstrates that a statically optimal mechanism may fail to be implementable in a dynamic setting due to timescale mismatches between a forward-looking designer and an adaptive population, where stability depends on the designer's adjustment speed and can lead to significant profit losses through bifurcations even when the optimal instrument is theoretically reachable.
This paper analyzes 2015–2024 data to demonstrate that the Russia-Ukraine conflict increased global fertilizer prices by 19% to 24% through trade reallocation and a market-wide premium rather than a uniform supply cut, causing severe food price pass-throughs in low-income importing nations.
