The value of rents and the likelihood of conflicts
International Review of Economics - Tập 56 - Trang 163-173 - 2009
Khaled Bennour
This paper extends the prey–predator model of Grossman and Kim (J Political Econ 103:1275–1288, 1995) to analyze the relation between the value of a contested rent and the emergence of conflict. We show that an increase in the value of the rent makes a conflict equilibrium more likely. We also analyze the case where the valuation of the rent is different for the two players. We find, for example, ...... hiện toàn bộ
Individual and social fides: the contribution of Reformation to the ontology of economics
International Review of Economics - Tập 66 - Trang 293-304 - 2019
Emilio Di Somma
This essay wishes to address what is believed to be a central historical crossroad that allowed the development of economics, and other social sciences, in the modern era. Such development would not have been possible without the transformation of the fundamental ontology through which European and Christian societies understood the world around them and their own social structures. I identify the...... hiện toàn bộ
How is aggregate household consumption affected jointly by longevity, pension, and aging? Theory and evidence
International Review of Economics - Tập 67 - Trang 499-512 - 2020
Lei He, Shuyi Zhou, Zilan Liu
The effects of longevity and pension on consumption or savings are investigated separately in previous studies. In this paper, we first construct a theoretical model which shed light on explicit joint role of longevity at different age, pension, and aging on aggregate household consumption. The testable implications are provided by theoretical discussion and are supported by empirical results base...... hiện toàn bộ
Remittances and disaggregated energy consumption in Bangladesh
International Review of Economics - Tập 67 - Trang 251-268 - 2019
Anupam Das, Adian McFarlane
We examine the long- and short-run causal relations between remittances and the consumption of natural gas, electricity, petroleum, and coal for Bangladesh over the period 1980–2016. We find that there are bidirectional long-run cointegrating relationships between remittances and electricity consumption and between remittances and natural gas consumption. At the same time, a unidirectional long-ru...... hiện toàn bộ

Alessandro Zeli, Paolo Mariani
The determinants of profitability and productivity for large Italian companies operating in industrial sectors are investigated in this paper. Data were taken from one of the most important Italian business surveys, and furthermore two cross-section surveys for the years 1998 and 2002 are compared. The results highlight the importance of financial management and organisational complexity in order ...... hiện toàn bộ
Corruption in a neoclassical growth model with a non-convex production function: comment

Marco M. Sorge
Causes and barriers to increases in economic freedom
International Review of Economics - Tập 64 - Trang 87-103 - 2016
Raymond J. March, Conrad Lyford, Benjamin Powell
We investigate the causes of increases in economic freedom by examining a cross section of countries from 1990 to 2010 and examining factors that have previously been associated with increases in freedom alongside other factors which have been found to be important for growth. We find that higher initial GNI per capita is associated with larger subsequent increases in economic freedom and countri...... hiện toàn bộ
Wage inequality in developing countries: South–South trade matters
International Review of Economics - Tập 58 - Trang 359-383 - 2011
Julien Gourdon
The relationship between trade liberalization and inequality has received considerable attention in recent years. The major purpose of this study is to present new results on the sources of wage inequalities in manufacturing taking into account South–South (S–S) trade. Globalization has not only lead to increasing North–South (N–S) trade, but it has also changed the direction and composition of tr...... hiện toàn bộ
Corporate governance in family-controlled firms in Taiwan
International Review of Economics - Tập 54 - Trang 176-193 - 2007
Jenifer Piesse, Igor Filatotchev, Yung-Chih Lien
This paper examines the effects of ownership structure and board characteristics on performance in publicly traded Taiwanese firms that are controlled by founding families. Results show that when shares are owned by institutional investors, particularly foreign financial institutions, firms perform better. However, where families are the major shareholders, this is not the case. In addition, board...... hiện toàn bộ
Reciprocity in the shadow of threat
International Review of Economics - Tập 55 - Trang 91-111 - 2007
Raul Caruso
This paper considers a partial equilibrium model of conflict where two agents differently evaluate a contested stake. Differently from common contest models, agents have the option of choosing a second instrument to affect the outcome of the conflict. The second instrument is assumed to capture positive investments in ‘conflict management’—labeled as ‘talks’. The focus is on the asymmetry in the e...... hiện toàn bộ
