Certain stylized facts are common among successful economic latecomers: an inverse U-shaped gross domestic product and capital per capita growth rate, high growth rates during the catch-up period, and rapid structural changes. This paper, for the first time, proposes a general equilibrium...

This paper establishes a theoretical framework addressing the long-debated issue of efficiency and equity. Empirical evidence shows that a comparative-advantage-following development strategy promotes growth and narrows the income gap, achieving both efficiency in production and equity in income...

Recently, energy efficiency and the sharing economy have become significant factors for sustainable economic development (SED), which require the attention of researchers and policymakers. Thus, the present research investigates the impact of energy efficiency and the sharing economy on SED in...

In this study, we integrate the insights of consumption value theory and the crowdfunding literature to develop a value-based view of crowdfunding rewards to systematically theorize and synthesize the underlying mechanisms through which the various rewards offered by crowdfunding projects can...

This paper represents an early attempt to analyze the comprehensive relationship between public educational expenditure and structural change, which is often measured by labor transfer from agricultural sector to industrial sector in developing economies. I construct a two-sector general...

This paper studies the causes, mechanisms and consequences of decreasing firm value and welfare loss in an economy under a fixed exchange rate regime when there is an unexpected appreciation in domestic currency. We also study the possible economic crisis caused by the exchange rate shock. We...

Despite a growing literature on population aging, empirical studies exploring mechanisms between aging and income inequality are scarce. This paper estimates the impact of aging on inequality via the perspective of labor income share, based on cross-country information covering the period...
