The persistence of inequality across Indian states: A time series approachReview of Development Economics - Tập 25 Số 3 - Trang 1150-1171 - 2021
Sanghamitra Bandyopadhyay
AbstractThere is a growing literature on the importance of persistent regional
inequalities in developing countries, with evidence that the lack of convergence
in incomes across regions is associated with a rise in conflict and social
unrest. However, there is a relative paucity of literature on the stochastic
characteristics of gross domestic product at the sub‐national level. In this
paper we id... hiện toàn bộ
Empirical investigation of the agriculture–malnutrition nexus in Africa: Spatial clustering and spillover effectsReview of Development Economics - Tập 27 Số 2 - Trang 685-709 - 2023
Oluyemi A. Okunlola, Yacouba Kassouri
AbstractMany studies have been conducted to examine the direct effect of
agriculture on the prevalence of malnutrition; however, there is little solid
evidence on spatial spillover effects and much less on the heterogeneous effects
stemming from spatial differences in nutritional conditions. We make up this gap
by using a dynamic spatial Durbin model to characterize the impact of
agricultural prod... hiện toàn bộ
FDI Flows to Latin America, East and Southeast Asia, and China: Substitutes or Complements?Review of Development Economics - Tập 14 Số 3 - Trang 533-546 - 2010
Busakorn Chantasasawat, K. C. Fung, Hitomi Iizaka, Alan Siu
AbstractIs China diverting foreign direct investment (FDI) from other developing
countries? Theoretically, a growing China augments other countries' FDI by
creating more production networking and raising demand for resources. However,
low Chinese costs lure multinationals away from other production sites. Here we
explore this issue empirically. We focus on East and Southeast Asia and Latin
America... hiện toàn bộ
Effect of Parental Migration on Children's Health in Rural ChinaReview of Development Economics - Tập 21 Số 4 - Trang 1132-1157 - 2017
Qian Guo, Wenkai Sun, Yijie Wang
AbstractUsing 2003–2006RCRE(Research Center for Rural Economy) panel data, we
estimate the effect of parental migration on the health of children left behind,
with a difference‐in‐differences and propensity score matching combined model.
On average we do not find any significant effect on children's health; however,
the effect varies among different groups. Children's health may improve as a

The East Asian Dollar Standard, Fear of Floating, and Original SinReview of Development Economics - Tập 8 Số 3 - Trang 331-360 - 2004
Ronald I. McKinnon, Gunther Schnabl
AbstractBefore the crisis of 1997/98, the East Asian economies—except for Japan
but including China—pegged their currencies to the US dollar. To avoid further
turmoil, the IMF argues that these currencies should float more freely. However,
the authors’ econometric estimations show that the dollar's predominant weight
in East Asian currency baskets has returned to its pre‐crisis levels. By 2002,

Foreign Direct Investment and Economic Growth: Theory and Application to ChinaReview of Development Economics - Tập 4 Số 2 - Trang 140-155 - 2000
Jean‐Claude Berthélemy, Sylvie Démurger
The paper investigates the relationship between foreign direct investment and
economic growth. A model of endogenous growth first highlights the transfer of
foreign technology as a key determinant of economic growth, and suggests that
economic growth may conversely influence the inflows of foreign capital.
Simultaneous‐equation model estimation based on a sample of 24 Chinese
provinces, from 1985 ... hiện toàn bộ
Decomposition of Productivity Considering Multi‐environmental Pollutants in Chinese Industrial SectorReview of Development Economics - Tập 19 Số 1 - Trang 75-84 - 2015
Hidemichi Fujii, Jing Cao, Shunsuke Managi
AbstractThe objective of this study is to calculate and decompose productivity
incorporating multi‐environmental pollutants in Chinese industrial sectors from
1992 to 2008. We apply a weighted Russell directional distance model to
calculate productivity from both the economic and environmental performance. The
main findings are: (1) Chinese industrial sectors increased productivity, with
the main ... hiện toàn bộ
