The Impact of Port Infrastructure and Economic Growth in Tanzania: Adopting a Structural Equation Modeling Approach

Baiqing Sun et al.

Summary: The port sector in Tanzania plays a crucial role in the country's economic development and transportation of goods and services. This study examines the impact of seaport infrastructure on promoting economic growth in Tanzania using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis. The results reveal a direct relationship between seaport infrastructure and the economy, as well as a significant connection between international trade and economic growth. The study recommends improving seaport infrastructure and international trade to maximize their potential in driving Tanzania's economic growth, given the cost-effectiveness of maritime transportation and the importance of transportation policies.

Measuring the blue economy in the EU: The Polish experience

Jakub M. Kwiatkowski et al.

Summary: This article compares blue economy accounting methodologies and proposes a new methodology based on micro- and country-specific local data to measure the size of the blue economy in Poland. The results show that previous analyses have slightly underestimated the size of the blue economy in Poland. The study concludes that there is a trade-off between one-size-fits-all methods and country-specific methods, and different methods should be used based on the specific research task or policy question to be addressed.
