This paper elaborates on the government's powers - both at the domestic level and over foreign countries. The domestic power is the power against domestic lobbies, and the foreign one is the government's international power. To do so, this paper tries to evaluate the effects of these powers   on the formation of free trade agreements (FTAs). The theoretical framework follows an oligopolistic-po...

After 1950`s, gradually the variable of human capital was included in the economic growth analysis .Foreign trade has also provided economic growth. Among other variables, which can be effective on the economic growth, are the country's economic and political structure and history of the oil or socialist system. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of human capital, foreign trade, ha...

The telecoupling framework is an integrated concept that emphasises socioeconomic and environmental interactions between distant places. Viewed through the lens of the telecoupling framework, land use and food consumption are linked across local to global scales by decision-making agents and trade flows. Quantitatively modelling the dynamics of telecoupled systems like this could be achieved us...

Increasing water scarcity in many developing countries is forcing investments into remediation of water quality at the basin or sub-basin scale in order to increase water availability. Remediation decisions involving complex aquatic environments are often made in data-poor and knowledge-poor situations. Remediation objectives are often poorly articulated, raise unrealistic expectations, and can...

The fishing industry not only acts as foreign exchange earner but also plays an important role in China’s economy. But with the development of technology and liberalization of international trade, the foreign countries adopted in succession trade barriers to limit China’s fishery product export, which had make China’s fishery product export disproportionated with fishery products production. By...

Classical theories of financialmarkets assume an infinitely liquidmarket and that all traders act as price takers. This theory is a good approximation for highly liquid stocks, although even there it does not apply well for large traders or for modelling transaction costs. We extend the classical approach by formulating a new model that takes into account illiquidities. Our approach hypothesize...

in the present study, the nonlinear model of non-newtonian blood flow in cosine-shape stenosed elastic artery is numerically examined. the model is carried out for axisymmetric, two-dimensional and fully developed blood flow. the vessel wall is assumed to be have time-dependent radius that is important factor for study of blood flow. the cosine-shape stenosis convert to rigid artery by using a ...

a mathematical modelling for more-winding single-phase transformer is presented. the incidence matrix-which gives the informations about the connection of the ends of the windings between the nodes-is multiplied leftside and rightside with the inverse of the inductance matrix of the more winding transformer. the result is a matrix which gives the relationship between nodes potentials and nodes ...

The process of internationalisation or ‘globalisation’ involves a thorough transformation of the Australian economy from being inward looking and protectionist, to being externally oriented in both trade and investment. The process has been helped along by the liberalisation of capital markets and the removal of barriers to trade, but other factors such as technological advances and innovations...

Empirical evidence confirms that trade exposure can shift resources towards the most efficient firms in an industry and induce substantial increases in aggregate productivity. Although recent studies document that much of world trade is controlled by multinational firms, few examine the effect of foreign direct investment decisions on resource allocation and aggregate productivity. This paper p...
