Estimating the relationship between economic development and energy demand and determining whether that relationship changes as levels of development change have been popular questions in energy economics. The current paper contributes to the literature by assembling a wide panel dataset of...

This paper disaggregates energy consumption and GDP data according to end-use to analyze a broad number of developed and developing countries grouped in panels by similar characteristics. Panel long-run causality is assessed with a relatively under-utilized approach recommend by Canning and...

We premise and model the dynamic interdependence between energy and carbon prices in Phase III of the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS) in a heterogeneous impulse-response setting. Our research framework is based on the proposition that energy prices (e.g., oil, natural gas, and...

In this article, Professor Kaswan argues that hoped-for greenhouse gas reductions cannot be achieved without reducing consumption. Given their control over land use and buildings, cities can play a key role in reducing consumption. She argues that, while existing federal proposals for a...

Worldwide, most global cities are located in coastal zones, but a paradox of sustainability is especially striking for American global cities. This article examines such paradox drawn between globalization-induced development and coastal ecosystems. It focuses on two developmental components...

The paper includes presentation and discussion of the results of empirical studies (content analysis) carried out by analysis of the density transfer of the materials published in scientific journal 'Problemy Ekorozwoju/ Problems of Sustainable Development' (PoSD). During five years of...

Authors described the relationships between economic crisis and a crisis of trust. This study identifies key elements that play significant role in trust building and destruction. The consequences of behavioral factors of the market players are discussed. Relationships between social status,...

Land grabbing appears to be driven by a variety of factors that seem destined to expand in the long term. The aim of this paper is to highlight the behavior and the role of China (a net food importer country) and India (which is facing a problem of energy insecurity) in the current escalation of...

This paper documents the determinants of real oil price in the global market based on SVAR model embedding transitory and permanent shocks on oil demand and supply as well as speculative disturbances. We find evidence of significant differences in the propagation mechanisms of transitory versus...

A recurring theme in recent years in the debate on the international role of currencies has been the possibility of pricing oil in euro. This paper contributes to these debates by providing a detailed review of the empirical evidence regarding the market for crude oil and current oil invoicing...
