In this paper, we use a multi-region model of the world economy to analyze the economic and environmental outcomes that are likely to result from Paris Climate Agreement. To construct the modeling scenario, we convert the disparate emission targets for each country or region in their Nationally...

It is found that over 1999:1-2012:12 China's monetary expansion influences Japan through the effect of China's growth on world commodity prices, increased demand for imports, and exchange rate policy. China's monetary expansion is associated with significant increases in Japan's industrial...

We construct a new database which covers production and trade in 136 primary commodities and 24 manufacturing and service sectors for 145 countries. Using this new more granular data, we estimate spillover effects from plausible trade fragmentation scenarios in a new multi-country, multi-sector,...

This paper studies the ability of manufacturing-specific shocks to explain global oil prices. In an estimated three-region DSGE model (United States, OPEC, rest-of-world) incorporating two sectors (manufacturing and services) in the oil-importing economies and featuring cross-border...

There has been much interest in the relationship between the price of crude oil, the value of the U.S. dollar, and the U.S. interest rate since the 1980s. For example, the sustained surge in the real price of oil in the 2000s is often attributed to the declining real value of the U.S. dollar as...

To what extent is the international business cycle affected by the fact that an essential input (oil) is traded on the world market? We quantify the contribution of oil by setting up a model with separate shocks to efficiencies of capital/labor and oil, as well as global shocks to the oil...

The paper examines the crude oil price effects on the political environment of the top four crude oil-consuming countries. The study uses data from 2002 to 2017 to showcase the effect of crude oil price on political environment of crude oil-consuming countries. The study takes Voice and...

Some of the topical problems of the harmonization of the global economy are outlined.Harmony is treated in Physical Macroeconomics as a dynamic balance of all energy and informational factors. Harmony is an objective property of the sustainable development of all living systems.Primarily,...

The paper continues a series of publications on the natural science foundations of the global economy. Physical macroeconomics treats the global economy as a living system, formed during biological and socio-economic evolution.In this Part VI of physical macroeconomics, qualitatively...
