  • The Underground Economy and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Emissions in China
    sustainability Article The Underground Economy and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Emissions in China Zhimin Zhou Lingnan (University) College, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou 510275, China; [email protected]; Tel.: +86-1592-6342-100 Received: 21 April 2019; Accepted: 9 May 2019; Published: 16 May 2019 Abstract: China aims to reduce carbon dioxide (CO2) intensity by 40–45% compared to its level in 2005 by 2020. The underground economy accounts for a significant proportion of China’s economy, but is not included in official statistics. Therefore, the nexus of CO2 and the underground economy in China is worthy of exploration. To this end, this paper identifies the extent to which the underground economy affects CO2 emissions through the panel data of 30 provinces in China from 1998 to 2016. Many studies have focused on the quantification of the relationship between CO2 emissions and economic development. However, the insights provided by those studies have generally ignored the underground economy. With full consideration of the scale of the underground economy, this research concludes that similar to previous studies, the inversely N-shaped environmental Kuznets curve (EKC) still holds for the income-CO2 nexus in China. Furthermore, a threshold regression analysis shows that the structural and technological effects are environment-beneficial and drive the EKC downward by their threshold effects. The empirical techniques in this paper can also be applied for similar research on other emerging economies that are confronted with the difficulties of achieving sustainable development. Keywords: carbon emissions; informal economy; EKC; industry structural effects; technological effects 1. Introduction During the past few decades, climate change has been a challenging problem all over the world [1].

  • The Dynamics of Industrial Growth In
    The Dynamicsof Industrial Growth in the Old Northwest 1830-70:An InterdisciplinaryApproach Margaret Walsh Department of History, University of Birmingham and University of Illinois, Chicago Circle Historians have customarily talked about the economic devel- opment of the Old Northwest in the middle years of the 19th cen- tury within an agrarianframework. 1 Thoughthe Jeffersonianimage has been modernized and modified by studies of the rapid growth of commercial farming, of the national importance of mineral and for- est resources, and of urban frontiers, little systematic attention has yet been given to the growth of a manufacturing sector. Pre- sumablywestern industrial enterpriseswere either nonexistentor unimportant. A similar conclusion about the insignificance of manufactur- ing in the Old Northwest in the period 1830-70 could be reached from a different approach -- namely an analysis of the process of American industrialization. Throughout both the customary and "new" discussions of the timing, location, and causes of indus- trial growth, attention has been focused on the Northeastern States. Presumably cotton textiles, heavy goods, or the railroad provided the keys to understanding the rise of the factory system somewhere between 1815 and 1850. But neither the West nor the Southwas destined to playa noteworthypart in the modernization of the economy. Given this disinterest in or lack of information on western manufacturing in a period in which the American economy was under- going rapid change, some quantitative evidence must first be pro- duced to show that there was an industrial sector which fulfilled a significant function in both regional and national development. Then it is possible to discuss alternative approaches to analyzing the dynamics of growth before suggesting a new synthesis.

  • Analysis and Comparison of Overall Gdp Depending Only on Three Major Sectors in Indian Economy
    © 2019 CJBM October - December 2019, Volume1, Issue 1 www.cms.ac.in/journals-cms.php ____________________________________________________________________ ANALYSIS AND COMPARISON OF OVERALL GDP DEPENDING ONLY ON THREE MAJOR SECTORS IN INDIAN ECONOMY Dr. Konda Hari Prasad Reddy Associate Professor, Department of Management Centre for Management Studies, Jain University Lalbagh Road, Bengaluru – 560027 ____________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Indian economy is characterized by a diverse mix of economic activities related to agricultural sector, industrial sector and service sector. Alternatively, from an economic point view, the Indian economy can be broadly decomposed into three major sectors, namely, primary sector, secondary sector and tertiary sector that are more commonly known as agricultural sector, industrial sector and service sector respectively. The adoption of New Economic Policy in 1991 witnessed a paradigm shift in Indian economy as it diluted the mixed economy model and opened the Indian economy to the world. Economic liberalization measures including industrial deregulation, privatization of state-owned enterprises and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment served to accelerate country’s economic growth. The present research study is aimed at analyzing and comparing the data with regard to the contribution of the major sectors of Indian economy (i.e. agricultural sector, industrial sector and service sector) in the overall GDP of the country during the period 1990-91 to 2009-10. The concerned GDP data have been retrieved from https://data.gov.in (Open Government Data Platform India). Moreover, for drawing useful inferences from the available secondary data, the statistical tools and tests like correlation analysis, analysis of variance and F-test have been used.

  • THE QUESTION of AGRICULTURAL COOPERATION” ( SPEECH, JULY 31, 1955) by Mao Zedong
    Primary Source Document with Questions (DBQs) “ THE QUESTION OF AGRICULTURAL COOPERATION” ( SPEECH, JULY 31, 1955) By Mao Zedong Introduction In the early 1950s, China chose to model its socialist economy after that of the Soviet Union. The Soviet model called for capital-intensive development of heavy industry, with the capital to be generated from the agricultural sector of the economy. The state would purchase grain from the farmers at low prices and sell it, both at home and on the export market, at high prices. In practice, agricultural production did not increase fast enough to generate the amount of capital required to build up China’s industry according to plan. Mao Zedong (1893-1976) decided that the answer was to reorganize Chinese agriculture by pushing through a program of cooperativization (or collectivization) that would bring China’s small farmers, their small plots of land, and their limited draught animals, tools, and machinery together into larger and, presumably, more efficient cooperatives. The farmers put up resistance, mostly in the form of passive resistance, lack of cooperation, and a tendency to eat animals that were scheduled for cooperativization. Many of the Communist Party leaders wanted to proceed slowly with cooperativization. Mao, however, had his own view of developments in the countryside, which he expressed in this speech of July 31, 1955.

Theodore de Bary and Richard Lufrano, 2nd ed., vol. 2 (New York: Columbia University Press, 2000), 458-459.

  • The Roots of the Present Crisis in the Soviet Economy I
    THE ROOTS OF THE PRESENT CRISIS IN THE SOVIET ECONOMY Ernest Mandel I There is a near-consensus among economists and political ideologues today in the world that the present crisis of the Soviet economy expresses the historical failure of central planning. All those directly or indirectly influenced by the neo-liberal/neo-conservative school, in the first place the Austrian school of von Mises - von Hayek and Milton Friedman, who identify central planning as applied in the USSR and Eastern Europe with socialism, triumphantly add: socialism is for ever dead and buried. And the most historical and theoretically minded among them remind us constantly: "We told you so." They refer to the century-old debate between the neo-classical school and marxist socialists of many creeds around the question: can any economy not guided by the market work with a minimum of efficiency? They now claim that history has definitely shown them to have been right from the start in that debate. ' We reject all these statements and claims as empirically not proven and theoretically mistaken. Socialism never existed in the USSR, Eastern Europe, China, Cuba or anywhere in the world. Socialism cannot exist in one country or in a small number of countries. It can only exist in the leading industrial nations taken in their totality or near-totality. What developed in the USSR and similar systems were societies in transition between capitalism and socialism, i.e. postcapitalist societies submitted to the unrelenting pressure of the capitalist system and the capitalist world market, military pressure, political pressure and economic pressure.
