Exploring the Environmental Kuznets Hypothesis. Theoretical and Econometric Problems [PDF]
Focussing on the prime example of CO2 emissions, we discuss several important theoretical and econometric problems that arise when studying environmental Kuznets curves (EKCs). The dominant theoretical approach is given by integrated assessment modelling,

Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Urban factors play a critical role in efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to climate change. In this regard, this study aims to examine the impact of urbanization and its components (e.g., urban population growth [UPG], population in the largest city [ULC], population in urban agglomerations [UPA] of more than 1 million, and ...

Are natural resources a curse on the distributional consequences of financial development?
Contemporary Economic Policy, EarlyView.Abstract This paper examines how natural resource dependence shapes the distributional effects of financial development in developing economies. Using a balanced panel of 90 countries from 1995 to 2022 and dynamic panel and nonlinear threshold methods, we show that financial development reduces wealth inequality when resource dependence is low, but ...

Success and failure in England's patent system: New evidence from patent applications, 1783–1834
The Economic History Review, EarlyView.Abstract Our understanding of the relationship between the English patent system and technical change during the industrial revolution is based entirely on the study of successful patents. We address this feature by providing the first study of unsuccessful patent applications in England during the first industrial revolution.
