Since the end of the cold war and the transition from a centrally-planned to market-oriented economic system, the Russian economy has undergone a staggering and incomplete economic transformation. International financial and technical assistance played a significant role in the evolution of the Russian economy. As the International Monetary Fund (IMF) took a central role in the Russian transition process through the provision of technical and, more importantly, financial assistance, it was able...

The ecological and environmental issues caused by climate change have affected human health and social development. Accordingly, scientists have focused on addressing climate change. IAMs (Integrated Assessment Models) have been widely used to assess the effect of global climate governance. Since the US withdrew from the Paris Agreement and the UK broke away from the European Union, global economic development takes on an uncertain path. The worldwide trade war triggered by the US has shown...

Solar energy being the renewable resource of energy has not been tapped for its maximum utilization. Even though, this energy is used extensively for street lighting, home light, and other appliances, it has not been used for the automobiles from the past. This has been because of the abundant availability of crude oil until recently. Since crude oil is exhaustible energy, this energy is exploited to such an extent that, now it is becoming inevitable to look at other sources of energy, since it...

Sustainable development is the need of the hour and financial inclusion is a necessary step in achieving the SDGs, especially for emerging economies. Financial inclusion is not listed as one among the 17 SDGs, but it plays an active role as a mediator in achieving SDG1, SDG2, SDG3, SDG5, SDG8, SDG9 and SDG10. Digital inclusion will undoubtedly be the future of financial inclusion policies, especially during the times of crisis.

The dilemma of rising environmental pollution in recent decades has raised the demand for clean energy sources. However, some newly developed energy sources, such as biomass energy, may or may not contribute to reducing environmental stress. This study investigates biomass energy consumption and environmental pollution in BRICS countries by applying the generalized system method of moment (GMM) model for empirical estimation from 1992 to 2013. The results show that biomass energy consumption...

From 1970-2013, Industrialized countries, which are them an in world economies, had domestic investment and had positive long-term effects on outward foreign direct investment. The group-mean estimator for the coefficient on DI is 4.56, suggesting that one dollar increase in DI increases OFDI by 4.56 dollars. Our results suggest that increased outward foreign direct investment is a consequence and cause of increased domestic investment.

CO 2eq emission scenarios for the Colombian transport sector were estimated for 2010–2050. We used a marginal abatement cost approach to assess an emission mitigation pathway. For this purpose, we constructed a carbon emission accounting model linking travel demand to vehicle stock, fuel consumption, and emissions for the Colombian transport sector. Actions related to energy efficiency, fuel switching, new engine technologies and modal change were considered. The analyzed measures have the...

http://galenmancino.com This talk discusses Galen's concept of "Networked Economies," which would better enable a level playing field where consumers could choose to support smaller local business that actually care about their community, or larger business that are willing to demonstrate that they are willing to put back into the community. If you care about how large corporations and banks are taking over, and wonder how we might do something about it, and have a little greater...
