This study performed a panel data analysis of Pakistan’s nine major sub-industries in the years 1980–2019. The primary objective was to conduct disaggregate substitution elasticity inputs different industries, including textile, mining and currying, manufacturing, fuel extraction, electricity, gas, water supply, using translog production function. used function estimate output elasticities for ...

China has been stressing the needs of promoting regional sustainable development through industrial transformation. In the northwest region of China, which is faced with both urgent socioeconomic development and fragile ecological conditions, with water scarcity being one of the major characters, the relationship between industrial transformation and water use efficiency ought to be investigate...

The exchange rate plays an essential role for firms which export goods and import raw materials. In this paper, the effects of real specific exchange rate fluctuations in imports, exports and aggregate trade on industry sector, chemical and transportation industries outputs in 49 OIC countries were investigated by using a panel data model over 1990-2014. Particularly, this paper presents eviden...

This paper shows how agricultural productivity shocks can generate large industrial output fluctuations in poor countries, using a static general-equilibrium model with Stone-Geary preferences. A negative shock to agricultural productivity increases food prices, which affects manufacturing output through two channels: (1) meeting subsistence requirements in the face of rising food prices causes...

In this paper we investigate the relationship between economic growth and industrial pollution emissions in China using data for 112 major cities between 2001 and 2004. Using disaggregated data we separate FDI inflows from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan from those of other foreign economies. We examine four industrial water pollution indicators (wastewater, chemical oxygen demand, hexavalent chrom...

r. N Between 1970 and 1978, industrial subsidies in Sweden rose from 4.9 96 to 16 96 of value added in mining and manufacturing. Most of this increase was due to increased wage subsidies to specific firms facing acute difficulties. The Swedish industriai subsidy program seems to be both larger in relation to industrial output and more selective than similar programs in Great Britain, Italy, Nor...

This paper combines input–output analysis with non-negative matrix factorization analysis widely used in the image segmentation and attempts to find the target industrial groups (industrial clusters) in Japan that have intensive CO 2 emissions. We generalized the industrial cluster analysis proposed by Kagawa et al. (2012) to identify environmentally-important industrial clusters from the entir...
