Economic Policy Uncertainty and Structural Transformation in Africa: The Conditional Role of Human Resource Development

Thunderbird International Business Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The present study has investigated two objectives. First, it examines the unconditional impact of economic policy uncertainty (EPU) on Africa's structural transformation. Second, it explores the conditional role of human resource development in the nexus between economic policy uncertainty (EPU) and structural transformation.

Study on the Motion of a Moored Body and the Tension of Mooring Lines

Journal of the Society of Naval Architects of Japan, 1975
In these years off-shore structures are built with various purposes. It is important problem to study about their mooring system. And this study is also important for ships. In this paper it is aimed to study the tension of mooring lines.Mooring tension was formerly calculated by what is called “catenary theory”, but it is calculated here by “corrected

Technology‐Enabled Cross‐Border Entrepreneurship: The Role of Digital Platforms in SME Expansion Through the Lens of Institutional Theory

Thunderbird International Business Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) face significant institutional barriers when expanding across borders, including regulatory constraints, financial accessibility issues, and market entry challenges. Institutional theory provides a useful framework for understanding how external regulative, normative, and cognitive institutional forces
