In a recent study (supported by the European Economics Association) P. Kalaitzidakis, T. P. Mamuneas and T. Stengos provide an up-to-date ranking of economic journals that are used to compute world-wide rankings of academic institutions in Economics for the period 1994 to 1998. The results show...

We conduct an update of the ranking of economic journals by Kalaitzidakis, Mamuneas and Stengos (2003). However, our present study differs methodologically from that earlier study in an important dimension. We use a rolling window of years between 2003 and 2008, for each year counting the number...

In this paper we examine the effect of pollution, as measured by CO2 emissions, on economic growth among a set of OECD countries during the period 1981-1998. We examine the relationship between total factor productivity (TFP) growth and pollution using a semiparametric smooth coefficient model...

In this paper, we examine the effect of emissions, as measured by carbon dioxide (CO 2), on economic growth among a set of OECD countries during the period 1981–1998. We examine the relationship between total factor productivity (TFP) growth and emissions using a semiparametric smooth...

The purpose of this paper is to examine the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) capital-economic growth nexus, taking into consideration the previously documented nonlinear relationship between initial income and human capital on the one hand and economic growth on the other. We apply...
