Potential and limitations in the case of Oslo","authors":"Rebecca Cavicchia, Roberta Cucca","doi":"10.1177/00420980251372728","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1177/00420980251372728","url":null,"abstract":"Urban densification is widely regarded as a key strategy for promoting sustainability and fostering social diversity in cities. While it has often been advocated as a means to enhance social mix, research indicates that, without effective housing policies and regulations, it can instead drive up rents and property prices, leading to displacement and exclusionary pressures. In Oslo, the case study of this investigation, densification has been the primary development strategy, particularly in the historically less affluent eastern districts, where former industrial sites have been transformed into residential areas. We argue that when densification occurs within a fully deregulated housing system and is primarily driven by private developers and speculative investment, it tends to create conditions that facilitate exclusionary dynamics. However, the possible social implications can be different depending on the location of densification interventions. By analyzing census-tract level data on tenure structure, household typology, country background, education level, age structure, and income, we explore whether newly developed densification areas in Oslo exhibit a more homogeneous or socially mixed profile across the eastern and western parts of the city. Findings suggest that while densification areas in the east side of the city support gentrification dynamics, those in the west seem to rather have de-segregating effects.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145295988","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there is paucity of empirical evidence from research on how corruption affects different population groups when they seek healthcare services from formal healthcare facilities. The paper presents new evidence on how informal payments, which is a major form of corruption, affect health-seeking behaviour people and how household economic status has sustained it in Nigeria.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>We used a pre-tested interviewer-administered questionnaire to conduct interviews in 1,652 households in Enugu and Kano states, in the south and north of Nigeria, respectively.

Beyond the tragic human toll, terrorism inflicts material, institutional, and economic damage and can impair banks' operations and productivity. This article investigates the impact of terrorism on bank performance, proxied by return on average equity (ROAE), return on average assets (ROAA), non-performing loans (NPLs), and the <i>Z</i>-score of insolvency risk, using a panel of 92 WAEMU banks from 2005 to 2019 and a system-GMM approach. The findings show that terrorism exerts a negative and statistically significant effect on all performance measures: a 1% rise in attacks reduces ROAE and ROAA by 4.7% and 3.9%, respectively, weakens bank solvency by 2.8%, and increases the NPL ratio by approximately 4.1 percentage points. These results underscore the need for WAEMU countries to intensify efforts to promote peace and security, and for regulators to implement reforms that explicitly safeguard financial stability and ensure sustained banking performance in the face of terrorism-related risks in the region.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":47363,"journal":{"name":"African Development Review-Revue Africaine De Developpement","volume":"37 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145317416","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When doing so, they primarily stress modes like public transit, carshare, bike-share, and ridehail. These are instances where people share vehicles with strangers via market-based interactions or by using public goods. Yet research indicates that in many countries, especially the USA, a substantial portion of vehicle sharing involves sharing among family members, friends, and acquaintances. Meanwhile, planning scholars emphasize the time-related and financial costs of sharing. This overlooks the importance of the subjective experience of sharing, which actively shapes individuals’ willingness and/or reluctance to share. Despite the significance of these factors, the literature has not adequately addressed them. In this critical review, I synthesize literature from sociology, psychology, economics, and anthropology to provide a holistic view of shared transportation. I then establish a typology of vehicle sharing that differentiates between “sharing in” with known persons versus “sharing out” with strangers. I also examine the socioemotional incentives behind sharing—as well as the impediments hindering it—and their relevance for these categories. The novel sharing typology provides a new lens through which to understand the challenges of addressing barriers to sharing. This debates paper is timely as planners and policymakers confront new trends in shared transportation. The COVID-19 pandemic generated new psychological impediments to sharing. By informing policies to promote vehicle sharing, a better understanding of socioemotional factors may help cities to achieve sustainability and equity goals.","PeriodicalId":51350,"journal":{"name":"Urban Studies","volume":"94 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145295990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the Generalized Method of Moments, the study demonstrates that stronger political and institutional governance is associated with higher FDI and remittances. Moreover, improved access to, skills in, and use of ICT contribute to increased FDI and remittances. The effectiveness of political and institutional governance mechanisms in attracting FDI is further enhanced when they are accompanied by increased use of and access to ICT. Similarly, the positive impact of good political governance on remittances is reinforced by improved access to ICT.

Employing a variational inequality approach within a multicriteria decision-making framework, complemented by numerical simulations using an optimized machine learning algorithm, we find that reductions of approximately 50 per cent in greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss are attainable. However, PES alone are insufficient to achieve these targets. A comprehensive strategy—combining a moderate reduction in production through economic decoupling, increased environmental awareness, and targeted incentives—is necessary for meaningful reductions. Our findings also indicate that supply chain participants collectively forgo 11.36 per cent of their profits when internalizing environmental externalities. Meanwhile, consumers are willing to pay only a 4.04 per cent premium for sustainable products, implying that a significant portion of these costs cannot simply be transferred to consumers. Consequently, firms must invest in greener production methods and abatement technologies to sustain profit margins while mitigating environmental impacts.","PeriodicalId":50476,"journal":{"name":"European Review of Agricultural Economics","volume":"130 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145295776","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
