This paper intends to establish conceptual foundations of analyzing the economic dimensions of warfare. The Post-War Final Economic Damage Simulator (PFEDS) attempts to estimate the heterogeneous macroeconomic effects of a potential military conflict. The model suggests nine different...

This paper introduces a new economic model of a wartime economy, the war economic capability model — WEC-Model. The WEC-Model assesses the economic impact of an armed conflict in three different stages: (1) initial armed conflict and diplomatic negotiations; (2) military armed conflict; and...

This paper attempts to present an alternative indicator to evaluate the purchasing power parity (PPP) in any country. This new indicator is entitled "The Starbucksication Index." The word "Stabucksication" is originated from the successful Starbucks coffee firm that they are expanding globally...

This paper is interested to present an alternative trade indicator that is called “The Trade Mass (Т)”. The main objective to build the trade mass (Т) is to observe the international trade behavior of any country from a different graphical perspective. Subsequently, the same paper is...

This paper proposes an alternative analytical model to evaluate the trend and stages of openness of any country from a multidimensional perspective. The new trade analytical model is entitled “The Multi-Level Openness Monitoring Model (MOM-Model)”

This paper proposes an alternative trade analytical model to evaluate the trend and stages of trade liberalization of any country from a multidimensional perspective. The new trade analytical model is entitled “The Trade Liberalization Monitoring Model (TLM-Model)”

This paper is interested to evaluate the trade creation and trade diversion effect under the application of multi-level analytical framework. The main idea is to present an alternative group of indicators such as the trade mass (Т), the intra-regional and extra-regional trade trend ratio (R1),...

This paper presents an alternative regional integration approach to join less developed countries and developing countries into a single trade bloc. According to our research the free trade is not enough to generate successful regional integration between less developed countries and developing...

This paper proposes the 5-Dimensional partial differentiation theoretical framework for sciences and social sciences. The idea is to show that is possible to apply a large number of partial derivatives from five dimensions. It is to observe infinitesimal changes between a dependent axis and four...

This paper is interested to show graphically that the 2-Dimensional coordinate system (X,Y) is a sub-coordinate system into any multi-dimensional co-ordinate system. It is possible to be observed by the uses of higher multi-dimensional graphical modeling under the uses of the mega-space...
