Natural resources and green economic growth: An analysis based on heterogeneous growth paths

Chien-Chiang Lee et al.

Summary: This research examines the impact of natural resources on the resource curse phenomenon in green economic growth (GTFP) under heterogeneous growth path conditions and investigates how market-oriented institutions affect the relationship between resources and GTFP. The study utilizes a data-driven finite mixture model to analyze panel data from China's provinces from 2008 to 2018. The findings reveal that the effects of resources on GTFP differ under different growth path conditions, and the relationship is influenced by the level of market orientation. Additionally, the study observes that several provinces switched their growth paths during the study period. These results provide a new perspective for research on the resource curse phenomenon.

Legislative, Institutional, Industrial and Governmental Involvement in Circular Economy in Central Asia: A Systematic Review

Aidana Tleuken et al.

Summary: As the world grapples with the negative impacts of human activity on the environment, the circular economy is gaining attention as a means to preserve the value of resources. This research reviews the available literature on sustainability, green economy, and circularity development, and assesses the barriers and opportunities to circular economy development in CACs. The study finds that CACs face similar challenges (such as reliance on fossil fuels, water scarcity, and inadequate waste management) and opportunities (such as a focus on sustainable development, international cooperation, and green financing) in their circular economy development. Effective strategic plans, stakeholder involvement, and sufficient funding are recommended to promote circular economy in CACs.

Global oil price uncertainty and excessive corporate debt in China

Xiaohang Ren et al.

Summary: This study examines the impact of oil price uncertainty on the excessive debt behavior of Chinese listed companies. The results show that global oil price uncertainty can significantly reduce excessive corporate debt, especially among small, non-state-owned, non-high-tech, or non-energy firms. The study also finds that oil price uncertainty affects both demand and supply channels, with higher product-market demand weakening the impact and higher financing constraints enhancing the impact.
