Methodological Challenges in Studying Wealthy Families

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Studying the wealthy is not easy. This piece provides suggestions for recruitment, interview strategies, and design to gain high‐quality data on wealthy people. It is based on an interview study of 81 US racially‐diverse families with a median net worth of $25 million. First, to gain access to the wealthy, it is key for the researcher to use a

Poverty as Biography in Motion: Agency, Emotion, and the Limits of Contemporary Poverty Theory

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite extensive research, poverty remains theoretically under‐explained. Dominant approaches oscillate between structural, resource‐based models that conceptualise poverty as a measurable condition, and behavioural or responsibilisation accounts that locate persistence in individual conduct.

Heterogeneous Spillover Effects: How FDI in Resources Extraction, Manufacturing, and Services Affect Sectoral Carbon Emissions in the MENA Region

Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The MENA region faces a critical challenge: balancing economic growth spurred by foreign direct investment (FDI) with environmental sustainability. While FDI can bring technological advancements and capital, concerns exist about its potential to exacerbate environmental degradation, particularly carbon emissions.

Zero limits for hyperbolic conservation laws

, 2012
We will briefly review some aspects of the theory of nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws which are needed in order to work with "zero limits". Issues concern behaviour and selection of the right models/solutions since dissipation and dispersion ...

Reallocation Effects of Internalizing Externalities: Evidence From China's Straw Burning Ban

Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper examines the reallocation effects of a typical environmental policy aiming to internalize externalities: the straw burning ban across China. The ban prohibited the traditional farming practice of burning straw while compelling the labour‐intensive practice of straw utilization.
